We came here for a company holiday party with a count of about 15 people. The restaurant was empty to our luck. It gave me a chance to shamelessly gawk at the beautiful decorations and set up. We had a server paying special attention to our group. It seemed we only had one service worker (which was unfortunate for him) but we wouldn't have guessed that we didn't have ten servers. There wasn't a moment where we weren't helped our had dirty plates or empty drinks. Service was phenomenal. Even as people trickled in, our service didn't falter. The non-seafood options were very limited but it is a Mariscos place after all. I got a nice variety of food. I was overwhelmed with the tuna tacos as I expected a thinner "seared tuna" and got almost a tuna steak with breading. But the inner flavor was still delicious. Their tortillas are fresh and delicious. They could've made a simple quesadilla and I would've paid the same as if it had seafood. They start the table with chips and three types of dipping sauces. We had a birthday surprise in our group and the staff did not miss a beat to play a birthday song on the loud speaker and come running out with hats and hilarious energy. The ambiance and energy of this place was as beautiful as the decor. read more

Food was absolutely amazing -- 10/10! I came here on a Sunday afternoon around 3pm with my boyfriend, and we ordered 2.5 lbs of pescado zarandeado. Our waitress kindly explained the difference between the regular preparation and the house sauce, which we really appreciated since we didn't want chile on it. I also ordered the Vallarta classic shrimp ceviche, and they were kind enough to accommodate me by cooking the shrimp instead of curing it in lime, since I am pregnant. Our waitress was extremely delightful, attentive, and welcoming the entire time. The ambience is beautiful -- fresh, vibrant, and so refreshing compared to your typical mariscos restaurant. Even the bathrooms were exceptional! I truly can't wait to come back. read more

Came here on a Sunday afternoon. This place gets busy. For a table of 5 we waited about 45 minutes. I would say it was worth the wait. The restaurant is very nice and clean. The employees are all really nice and welcoming. However, service could be a little better. It was just kinda tough to waive down our wiatress. The food was great. We started with the scallops (callo de hacha). It was very fresh and it was a nice serving. The octopus was perfectly grilled and seasoned. The main star of the table was a 2.5lb fish. It came with fresh handmade tortillas, beans and rice. I will definitely return to this place. read more

This place was a tik tok recommendation, so I decided to try it out. There was a wait time and staff forgot to add us to the wait list. We waited extra time. I would have rated this place higher but I give it a 3.5 stars for the subpar service. Also we ordered the house specialty Zarandeado Santo Fish but was not told when we ordered 2 orders that it was going to be 2 lbs to each order which would have been nice to know. The marinade used for the fish was perfectly seasoned and grilled. I recommend this house specialty. The Michie was refreshing and savory. I definitely think the great food does out weight the subpar service. Try out this place. read more

I want to start off by saying that I had such high hopes for this place due to the influencer reviews I've been seeing on IG. I was looking forward to trying this place and brought my dad for his birthday and it was a big mistake. I want to start off by saying the place has a really good ambiance and the interior design is really nice. However, the service and food left so much to be desired. Almost every dish ranges from $24-35 and in this economy, that is pretty fair if you get what you pay for. Every dish that our family members ordered was average at best and really made me question whether the food or serving was worth the price tag. For the guests that ordered the mojarra, neither family members finished their food because the fish was extremely dry. I ordered the "camarones tiki tiki" and was told that they were cooked in a buttered paprika sauce and literally got a shallow bowl of 8 shrimps in what tasted more like paprika water. We ordered a soup for the kids and asked for the broth to be mild and instead it felt like the broth was not boiled properly since you could taste the soup base. Service was not what we expected from a place like this...we had to ask 3 different waiters for waters all around. There were seven people in our table and in the end we only got 4 waters. Each family member got their plate brought out at different times. Normally this wouldn't be problem, but unfortunately, the dishes all came out so far apart that the majority of the food was cold by the time we got the last plate brought to us. We even had to ask 3 different waiters in regards to the last plate because there was no sign of it. Overall, our family was disappointed with the experience. I wanted to talk to a manager, but I didn't want to make my dad's birthday dinner worse. I really hope this restaurant tries to better the experience for everyone. I don't know if I'll ever be coming back, for now, I rather stay away. Thank you read more

# Santo Fish Restaurant Review If you're in Pico Rivera, you've gotta check out Santo Fish Restaurant! Right from the moment you step inside, the customer service is incredible. The staff goes above and beyond to make you feel at home. ### Awesome Service As first timers, we were given great tips on what to order. The staff was super friendly and really knew their stuff, which made our experience that much better. ### Tasty Eats I tried the entraña steak, and wow, the flavor was on point! It came over a bed of fresh veggies, and the beans? Totally tasted homemade. My wife went for the shrimp with garlic mojo, and it was delicious. For starters, we had shrimp ceviche that reminded us of pata de mula and concha negra ceviche! Overall, I'd say my first experience here gets a solid 10. Those handmade tortillas blew my mind and totally messed with my diet! This place is definitely Munch munchies approved! I hope their quality and hospitality remains consistent or better! read more

Well, first of all we brought our two pet stroller (with pets) to dine with us. They were welcomed with open arms! The establishment had me at that point! The food was outstanding! We began with ceviche, followed by the Andrade Del Nayar! Totally looks and tastes as good as the pictures! Awesome! My dining companion had the Camarones Al Arbol, a spicy shrimp lovers choice! Cocktails generously good, " cause drinks in the streets are what?" The service was fantastic and patient as we navigated the menu to choose our "courses"! We will return! read more

Too much hype through social media on this place. The people giving reviews to this place are paid well. First visit and defiantly the only one was a week ago on a Sunday. Arrived an hr before they closed. Still plenty of time. First, I felt rushed by the waitress. She looked like she was fed up. Not hospitable at all. My main thing, was the tacos gobernador. Didn't like anything about it. Where is my shrimp, the flavor?? I chose this damn tacos 'cus it was the only thing I knew and I felt rushed having the waitress just standing there while I decide. These tacos are NOT what Ive had in other marisco restaurants. Definitely did not like the service, MENOS la comida! read more

First time here and sat at the bar. Came to try some ceviche, but we ended up loving the cocktails that Alfredo was hooking up. Wow, they were delicious. We will definitely come back to try more cocktails, ceviches and their Zarendeado. There's a quencinera party going on. For those looking to host a party, you may want to consider this place. Good food l, drinks, and perfect size for an intimate celebration ! read more

Bad food. Long and short is the food made me sick. The fish was undercooked, the octopus (pulpo) was tough, I was sick within hours of eating here. This place is being promoted by social media influencers but it really isn't that good. Service was questionable. The server had a difficult time getting the order right. Not a language barrier thing, my husband is completely fluent in Spanish. read more

We celebrated my mom's 40th birthday last weekend in their private banquet room, and the experience was exceptional! Although it was a very last minute booking, Noel was super accommodating and made a stressful situation into a pleasant experience. The banquet room was decorated nicely and truly leveled up the experience, making us feel like we were in a reception and not just any other restaurant table. The servers were very attentive to all my guests, and ensured that everybody enjoyed their food and the drinks kept flowing throughout the night. We had a few dishes selected for a prefixed menu, and every dish that was served was delicious! All my guests complimented the food and cocktails. The overall experience was phenomenal and I will definitely be recommending this establishment to my family and friends, whether it be for a casual dinner or a private banquet. read more

I went today to have lunch, ordered the New York steak which was good with beans and vegetables. The ceviche I ordered had very little shrimp mostly veggies. Mostly onions etc. was disappointed. My wife ordered what was supposed to be soup was a kind of ceviche which had shrimp and some slimy other seafood. The steak was $30.00 kinda of expensive for what you get. I would not go back. The service was decent, I like to get good value for my money, which I didn't receive. read more

Really enjoyed my meal! We ordered the caldo mixto, Mixto Del Mar ceviche, NY steak surf & turf, and the Zarandeado Santo Fish. The caldo was hearty and flavorful, the ceviche had that perfect citrusy freshness, and the surf & turf delivered great texture and seasoning. The Zarandeado fish stood out the most--packed with smoky, bold flavor. Great service and an overall satisfying visit. Would definitely come back! read more

Absolutely loved this spot! The seafood was top-notch and full of flavor. The lobster was delicious--perfectly cooked and rich--but I was a little surprised it came with beans instead of white rice. Not a dealbreaker, just unexpected! The octopus had a nice crunch to it--not the tender style you'd find in Greece, but still very tasty in its own way. And the drink I had was super refreshing and hit the spot. For dessert, the fried bananas were a total win--crispy, sweet, and just the right amount of indulgent. My only complaint? I wish the grasshopper husband would share more! read more

We had a great experience at Santo Fish. From the moment we sat down, everything just felt on point, the food, the service, the overall vibe. We came for the pescado zarandeado since that's what they're known for, and it lived up to the hype. Perfectly cooked, well-seasoned, and super flavorful. We also tried the Marea Negra ceviche and it was just as solid. fresh, balanced, and really well done. The tortillas hechas a mano were a standout! soft, warm, and the perfect complement to the dishes. Our server was great, super attentive and walked us through the whole menu, offering thoughtful recommendations. He checked in regularly, and even other staff members made sure we were taken care of. You can tell the team really cares about the experience. Highly recommend. Definitely planning to come back. read more

Let me walk you through the whole experience. When we got there, the hostess didn't know where to seat us, the restaurant area nor the bar were terribly busy but she looked nervous. We waited for about 10 minutes and no one come over to take our order on even introduce themselves. And there was this server that kept staring at us, like we personally offended him. Finally, one of the servers took our drink order. We ordered our drinks and 2 minutes later another server comes over and repeats our drink order and asked for appetizers. Long story short, they didn't have our appetizer. She told us "I'll be back with chips and salsa". I couldn't tell you how they tasted because we never got them. We ordered our food and that came out promptly, but again our server was nowhere to be seen. I don't know if it was the luck of the draw or our server was not having a good day. Food wise: I ordered a grilled octopus and flavor wise was really good, a bit chewy and hard to cut though. We also got a shrimp cocktail that we were able to salvage with some sauces. In general, food was ok... service was awful. Not coming back anytime soon. read more

Like other Yelpers here, I was interested in trying this place after seeing them featured in an Instagram reel. Unfortunately, the experience didn't live up to the hype. It was way overpriced for what ended up being average food and lukewarm service. My menu even had a glob of salsa stuck between the pages, which kinda set the tone for the overall experience. We ordered: - Tacos Gobernador: Looked fine, but completely lacking in flavor. - Mixto del Mar Ceviche: Overwhelmingly salty to the point that I couldn't finish it. The menu listed shrimp, octopus, fish, and imitation crab, but mine was mostly cucumber, imitation crab, and a few pieces of slimy octopus, which was not worth the $22 price tag. - Coctel de Camarón: This is one of my boyfriend's go-to dishes, but he didn't even demolish it (unheard of!!) and felt sick shortly after eating. - Micheladas: Tasted like straight tomato juice and beer. Honestly one of the worst Micheladas I've had. As for service, it was just okay. Both the manager and our server checked in once, but overall felt indifferent. The server dropped off some napkins but they were stained. I noticed our server offering to-go boxes to other tables but skipped ours entirely. We had to ask ourselves just to avoid wasting food. All in all, I won't be returning. read more

The restaurant itself is very nice and clean. They had music playing at just the right level so you can still hear people talking. The food was ok, but nothing to be like an OMGee that I must go back. My husband had the campechana (I think spelled it wrong) and I had a Sheimp Ceviche in a black sauce. Both were again, ok but for me personally the heat was too much and I didnt enjoy it. The guacamole was good, especially adding in the shrimp. The waitress we had was not very attentive, our drinks were never refilled and she never came by to check on us after the food was delivered except to have us pay and leave her a tip which she checked immediately to see what we left her. The man that was on duty with her seemed more interested in helping his friend than helping out with the other tables. read more

While waiting to place my order salsa and chips were serve. The salsas (molcajete/green tomatillowere delicious BUT the TORTILLA CHIPS were so HARD not stale because the flavor was good but they were soooooo hard maybe they were not cover properly or were made way too Early today other than that Awesome service from my waitress (it is Friday around 12:30-1:30pm) I order the "Marlin with mayo and veggies" ( since the callo de hacha was not available even tho it's on their menu) it comes in two tostadas deifitnetly worth the price which it came out around $17 but believe the portion was for the two tostadas that come with.

Not only are the shrimp super clean and well prepared, they're also extremely fresh. No fishy taste at all, and perfectly marinated.
