The tacos are absolutely , the service is great and the inside seating is so clean. I've been ordering the chicken tacos, but today I also ordered the tacos de papa--and it did not miss!!! This is located across from Fillmore old water tower (zero insights on the history here, just observing) and is a MUST stop. I normally get photos of the plate of food--but I couldn't wait. They're that good.

El Pescador is one of those places that makes you feel like family the second you walk through the…read moredoor. The service is always fast, friendly, and welcoming, and it's honestly one of the easiest restaurants in Fillmore to recommend with complete confidence to anyone visiting town. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers and take pride in what they do. The margaritas and micheladas are off the charts! generous pours and huge compared to the tiny drinks you get at so many other Mexican restaurants. The food is consistently great too. My personal favorite is the Pollo Tampiqueño, but their Molcajete, fajitas, albondigas, homemade tortillas are all amazing and definitely one of the highlights of the menu. Their signature seafood plates are absolutely worth trying. If you're anywhere near Fillmore, El Pescador is worth the drive. Family owned with great food, great people, great atmosphere, plenty of parking, and the kind of local restaurant that keeps people coming back.

I've had this place bookmarked for a long time, and I finally was able to eat here. My husband and…read moreI went for lunch during the week, and even though it was pretty busy for a Monday, we were seated right away. Our waiter came over with menus and was very helpful with a few questions that we had. We ordered a Molcagete, which is a lot of food and can definitely be shared with 2-3 people. We also ordered a camarones costa azul plate. Everything was so delicious, but the molcagete was my favorite. Another great thing about this restaurant is that they hand-make their tortillas right there. I loved the warm, hand-made tortillas. I also had a spicy margarita, which was amazing. The restaurant had so much space, a bar area, and can definitely be a great place for large parties. I loved El Pescador, and I can't wait to go back and maybe try their lunch specials.

Unfortunately, when I got home and opened my container, I noticed lint and a small piece of hair inside. It completely ruined my appetite and was honestly really disappointing and disgusting to see. We're not from Fillmore, so driving back wasn't really an option, especially with how expensive gas is right now. Overall, this was a very disappointing first experience, and sadly we will not be returning.

The tritip on the outside grill smelled amazing that I knew I had to try it. I got the lunch special sandwich which is a choice of turkey, tritip or grilled chicken. I got the tritip sandwich with fries for $11.99. It's seriously one of the cheaper lunch plates I had seen in many moons. Our server was on top of it and got our orders and drinks straight. The food took about 15-20 minutes for all of us to be served. The waitress constantly checked in with us to see how everything was. The fries are thick cut which are one of my favorites. The tritip was cooked perfectly and had a lot of flavor. Definitely a good choice. This is also a bar and seemed to be a pretty popular spot for locals. I would come back.
