    I've been coming here for 2 years now. My husband and I are big on seafood. We have tried many mariscos spots in So Cal. This place is our number 1!! The food is beyond delicious. This is your hole in the wall and food being made momma bear style food. This isn't your social media hype place. They don't even have social media. It's 2 ladies from Nayarit running this place. The shrimp ceviche (diced) is 10/10. The langostisis are fire !!! The cheese and shrimp empanadas are also fire. The food is freshly made and there is 1 lady making all the food so make sure you have 15 mins of your time to wait for your food to come to the table. If you love authentic food this place is it. Bring CASH! I don't usually write reviews but If I could give this place 6 out of 5 stars I would. Micheladas are FIRE!!!!

    Side of rice and beans

    I finally got to try this restaurant just in time for heritage month! The restaurant is located in a small plaza. There's also street parking. Make sure you read the signs. I believe Monday is when hours are restricted. The restaurant is on the smaller side with 7 booths and tables. It's family owned and operated. The restaurant was very busy but nonetheless the service was great! I believe the granddaughter was taking care of my friend and I. We ordered 2 shrimp empanadas with cheese, a tostada mixta, a taco gobernador, a taco de camaron, and a side of rice & beans. While the food was getting prepared, she brought out chips and salsa to snack on. The chips were warm, and the salsa was bold and spicy. The empanadas came out first. They were delicious! They're about palm-sized stuffed with cheese and shrimp. The masa itself is tasty. I think they add a sauce to it. I poked small holes in my empanadas to let the steam out. Their ceviche is made Estilo Nayarit with shredded carrots, fish chopped as fine as possible, and shrimp made in two styles: half cooked in lime and half cooked in salted water. A yummy must-try! The taco gobernador has the option to be ordered with medium spice or spicy. I went with medium spice, which tasted more on the mild side to me. Great flavor! The taco de camaron is made with fried shrimp and topped with onion, cilantro, repollo, y aguacate.The tacos were made with tortilla a mano which were thick and fluffy. Both tacos were good. I think the salsa on the gobernador taco elevated the taco more, so I enjoyed that one more. Overall, I had a great experience! I will be back to try other dishes. Definitely give this restaurant a try if you love mariscos!

    The best soup Ive ever had hands down. Adriana is the best the cook ever. Everything she makes has never been a disappointment. Love that the food is made to order.

    This is a Mexican seafood place. They have tacos, empanadas, tostadas, soups all available in seafood only. The food is tasty I had the shrimp tacos which were good. I also ordered the shrimp empanadas, they were okay. although I took some home for my brother and he said his were breaded for the taco, mine were not. The beans here are fantastic. I told my mom they were betters than hers and we both laughed. No really they were very good! Its a small place with music that was being played was way too loud. I could hardly hear my mom talking. Music was good but loud. Oh and only cash!

    Sarandeado

    Hole on the wall restaurant was one of the Best mariscos ever!! I have never thought mariscos can taste as good as this place. Must try food that we tried: shrimp Empanada was super crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, Sarandeado style grilled fish wowed me, never tried anything like this before, it was so delicious and perfectly cooked. Langostino te Acordaras, fried then braised prawns, spicy but really good sauce. Shrimp ceviche tostada had a really nice and different flavor. We really enjoyed everything including the Michelada. We can't wait to go back and try other stuff on the menu!!

    Langostinos
    Ace S.

    This place is a little gem langostinos and shrimp empanadas are delicious 10/10 Grandma cooks very authentic

    Handmade tortillas

    Service was great we were seated as soon as we got in. The owner was playing classic Spanish music making a nice atmosphere. The food is delicious A++++ everything was fresh. The sauce with the longostinos was amazing. The empanada was delicious. The sarendeado was cooked to perfection with a nopal under it with good rice and beans. Lastly, tried the michelada which was perfect with for a hot afternoon in the summertime. Definitely will be back.

    Tosta de Camaron
    Christian P.

    I ordered the tostada mixta de Camaron. The service took a bit but it's because it's made to order so you're getting the food made as soon as you order. Server was really friendly and would come around frequently to see if I needed anything. Overall a great experience and cozy atmosphere. Definitely coming back here again.

    Excellent tacos!!!!!

    Driving around Old Town La Puente, you'll totally miss this AMAZING taco (Mexican food) spot! Don't make that mistake! If you do, you'll miss out on some of the absolute BEST fish tacos in the city! Seriously, I'm addicted. I ordered two, despite whatever else I may want to order. That complimentary side of langostino salsa elevates the fish tacos to heavenly status! Ugh, I want some NOW! I've had the gubanador tacos as well, and they are freaking delicious. Shrimp, caramelized onions, red sauce and soooo much cheese....that cheese!!!! Wow. Best part of dining here, you'd be supporting a small business trying to survive in an area that the city has begun to gentrify. Places like this, with food this good DESERVE to be here! The customer service is always top notch, too: friendly and accommodating. You know what? That's it, I'm stopping in for dinner.

    Ceviche de camaron
    Mayra M.

    You know those hole in the wall places that always end up having thee best food, this is one of those. Only downside is it's cash only so hot up the atm before. We ordered ceviche de camaron, a variety of tacos, and a mojarra frita. The standout for me was the ceviche de camaron, it was perfection, and I'm picky when it comes to ceviche. The service was fast and friendly, overall I wish I lived closer so I could frequent this place more.

    My sister introduced me to Rincon De Guayabitos No. 2! I've never been to a seafood only Mexican restaurant and it was truly an amazing experience. It's family owned and the staff were so friendly - you feel so welcomed. Every single item that we ordered was delicious. I especially loved and still think about the shrimp empanadas. Yum! The shrimp taco was also delicious! They make all their salsa and tortilla in house and you'll get addicted. If you want the fresh fish (a must!), make sure to call ahead and they can save one for you! I'm already looking forward to my next visit. Get ready to leave happy! Also, it's cash only.

    Fish tacos
    Paola G.

    Wonderful service the manager Darla was so friendly and fast. She explained the menu and the owner allowed me to take pictures of her preparations. A beautiful and cozy reminder of the beaches of Mexico!

    Langostinos (spice level medium)
    Brianna P.

    Wanted to start off by saying that the customer service was 10/10! Darla was suuuper sweet and made my first time at the restaurant the best! I tried about 4 different dishes and my absolute favorite things were the Langostinos (literally drooling thinking about them again) and the Empanadas de Camarón. Darla mentioned that her grandma cooks all the food (which is always made fresh right when you order) and woow you can taste it. The ambiance is super laid back and chill, they even serve some alcohols! The chips and salsa they give you are also delicious. It's a cash only place BUT they do accept zelle as well! I'm definitely coming back and am so happy I live close by!

My favorites were the Signature Lan Noodle, the spicy beef noodle, and the wide flat noodle soup. The Signature Lan Noodle had a rich, flavorful broth with tender beef and perfectly chewy noodles. The spicy beef noodle had just the right amount of heat and was packed with flavor without being overwhelming. The wide flat noodles were incredibly fresh, soft, and chewy--they soaked up the broth beautifully and had an amazing texture. You can really tell the noodles are made fresh to order. The portions were generous, the ingredients tasted high quality, and the service was friendly and fast. If you're craving authentic Lanzhou hand-pulled noodles, this is definitely the place to visit. I'll absolutely be back!

Looks like they just break chicken legs and poor them in the soup. Contained small fragments of bone, and some of them are easy to miss.

That said, aside from the bone issue, the meal itself was enjoyable. Next time, though, I'll probably play it safe and order something different.

We ordered the American breakfast, which is supposed to come with: eggs, bacon, sausage, and pancakes. Instead we got eggs, bacon, potatoes, beans and a pancake that was a mix between a cookie and dry corn bread. The orange juice is freshly squeezed with fresh SEEDS included. The over easy eggs were swimming in oil as well as the potatoes. Everything was just oily. They advertise their daily agua frescas on a hand written menu but when we ask for horchata they said "not today". Should've gone to the burger joint down the block instead. Waste of time and money.

It's the type of place that I would be stoked finding it, if I was on a road trip driving from California through Texas (and through New Mexico). It just has that certain quality of authenticity or how you would imagine a Mexican spot like you see in the movies or something. I came in for a late lunch so I was the only one in the restaurant so the service was pretty quick. The menu is full of those combination classics that you would see at certain Mexican restaurants. I ended up ordering the three tacos dorados combo. I thought the food was great. Because it wasn't busy at the time parking was easy to find on the street. I parked right out front.

My favorites were the Shanghai spicy shrimp and pork wontons and the beef tenderloin udon with black pepper.

For a more modern Chinese dining experience, I think this place is pretty solid. The standout for me was the dried scallop fried rice; wonderfully seasoned and tasted very traditional! The pan fried buns were not very juicy, no complaints about the other items (XLB, garlic string beans, custard buns, pan fried dumplings). Our food came out very quickly! I think that the family style aspect struggles a bit due to a lack of table space/lazy Susan. My party was sat at the very back, near the kitchen, so it was almost unbearably hot. I think the area would have benefited from ceiling fans. Otherwise, if you enjoy traditional flavors in a modernized storefront, this place is a great contender!
