    This place is AMAZING! I was in the area and looking for a highly rated restaurant, and yelp led me here with the positive reviews. The food here is literally perfection! The food tastes incredibly fresh and packed full of flavor. The salsa is one of the best I've ever had. We ordered the street tacos, Baja and grilled fish tacos. All were a 100/10! The flavor absolutely hit the spot, and then some! Our server, Yoselin, was so personable and accommodating. The ambiance is absolutely instagram-worthy with outdoor seating with string lights, and inside showcasing beautiful murals, an awesome backdrop to take photos, and a disco ball. This place is family owned-and they really make you feel like part of the family. This is a true gem that everyone needs to go to! I have found my favorite Mexican restaurant! Also-their margaritas are out of this world! They also have every flavor imaginable!

    Chips & salsa

    Beyond amazing food! First time back since the renewal opening. Environment was nice and clean along with very friendly servers. Very pretty mural paints about. Highly recommend, more than just mariscos!

    Baja Fish Tacos + Jamaica

    I frequently drive past this place and decided to stop in today for lunch. I was greeted immediately and was told to sit wherever I liked. The place was clean and Spanish oldies were playing. I ordered their Jamaica and two Baja fish tacos. The agua fresca was delicious. Food had great portions and the cheese between the two tortillas added a unique touch. Overall a great experience and would come back.

    Shrimp taco

    Not sure why I was here, my friend wanted to go here, but it was cool nonetheless. The food here is pretty good, the chips and salsa was nice. I ordered the pazole and it was one of the best I've ever had. Not overly seasoned,'it came with two rolled potato tacos which were pretty good. I also ordered a shrimp taco, it was $9, it was good but I wouldn't wanna pay $9 for one taco again. But overall I would come back just not anytime soon.

    Fish and shrimp tacos

    When I'm craving seafood, this spot is a good choice because I can have a variety of food choices. Tonight it's tacos and I got fish and shrimp. Healthy large portions. The place has some decent seating with nice lighting. The service is great. Waitress was very attentive to ensuring the customers are taken care of.

    Great food, outstanding service, and an amazing ambiance! We tried almost all of the tacos, and every single one was a 10/10. The staff brought out every salsa they had, and honestly, each one was to die for. We also ordered drinks, the Tamarindo and the traditional micheladas, both of which were so refreshing and delicious. The ceviches were my personal favorite- fresh, flavorful, and absolutely unforgettable. The service was just as impressive as the food. The staff made sure we felt taken care of the entire time and even surprised us with complimentary Mexican shots to end the night. Truuuuuuly the perfect way to wrap up our evening. We left with full bellies and happy hearts. This is the kind of place you want to come back to again, and again, and again. We'll definitely be back!

    Heaven on earth !

    This is by far the best Mexican restaurant I have ever been to, the flavor of the food is out of this world. We randomly ended up here while we waited for our car to get fixed and it ended up being an amazing day . Our waitress, Yoselin, was amazing, the ambience was amazing. I stand by mom and pop places being the best place you will ever have food at . It's family owned and you can feel the love in all the flavors of the food with the freshest ingredients. Places like this deserve to have every table packed from open to close.

    Food was delicious ceviche tropical was super spicy I had fajitas mix all was delicious. Service guy was new but he was learning and I appreciated his hospitality very friendly and fixed my issues with service platter. Michelada was okay I saw an IG post about the michelada being great bit honestly I have had better. But I would be back just because the food was good. Music was good mix and not too loud. Place was clean and looked good. Thank you see you soon

    My husband and I were there during lunch. We had the grilled fish and the Baja style tacos. So yummy Size of the tacos were a good portion. The ambiance is is beautiful, loved the murals on the ceiling and the table lighting. Can't wait to go back for Micheladas and karaoke.

    Service was great, food was delicious, they got a live band and it's a Friday night. I enjoyed my time here.

The modern ambiance gives a nice balance between casual and formal. Recommend booking reservations for large groups or weekend. The menu gets rotated periodically for new dishes and in season items. A few must try would be the crispy shrimp red rice roll, crispy tofu, green beans, and mala fries for the food adventurers. The crispy dishes are well made with crisp outside with tender flavors on the inside. I was skeptical about the mala fries but it blew my mind. The crispy fries really absorbed the mala flavor and gives a nice kick A few small opportunities, the Ong choy was overcooked and hard to chew. Crab roe was more salty than umami. Would return to try other dishes on the menu!

    whenever i have a strong craving for a seafood boil, the crawfish hut truly never disappoints me !!…read moremy friend and i kept talking about getting a seafood boil at work and decided to get it on a random monday evening, and it wasn't too crowded yet so ordering and service was really quick! they give you an apron and gloves too, which i always appreciate getting. combo 1 was perfect for us since i love shrimp, she loves crawfish, and we both love manila clams !! we ordered it in mild with the hut special sauce which is super addicting. we also ordered sausage to go in the bag, which you can never go wrong with. everything was cooked to perfection and seasoned so well !! we also got a side of popcorn chicken gizzard, which had a great crunch and chew and acted as a great opposing texture to the seafood boil. this place remains as my favorite seafood boil spot to eat with my friends and family!

    This place is for my crawfish lovers (and other seafood too lol)!…read more They hands down have the best jumbo crawfish around (compared to BC, Kickin', etc). Typically other places offer frozen or in season but they are always on the smaller size and sometimes can be super mushy. The jumbo crawfish here is always fresh. I also like how much garlic they add into their sauce. Another plus is they have a lot of TV screens so you can catch a sports game here too! They also have happy hour if you're looking for a quick seafood bite!

    We happened upon this delicious restaurant by chance! Saw it as we drive by and decided to come…read morecheck it out for dinner on a Sunday night. Max was our server and he took great care of us from beginning to end. We ordered the ceviche mixto to start. It was so tasty with all that fresh seafood in a light tangy sauce. We ordered fried tortillas to accompanied it. For the mains, we ordered the lomo saltado and the steamed black cod dish. This was one of the best lomo saltados that I've had. It had the charred smokiness reminiscent of the Chinese "wok hei" taste. The beef cubes were tender. The potato fries were perfect because they still had a bit of hardness and not all mush by the end of the meal. The portion was generous and easily can be split and shared with 2-3 people. The Chifa black cod dish was a smaller portion. The cod was buttery soft and had a very delicate flavor. We really like this dish too! We were treated to a complimentary sample of their sushi as well. So nice of them! It was a delicious smoky aburi salmon nigiri. That smoky taste was still in my mouth an hour after we left the restaurant! We will definitely be back when we're in the area again and will be telling all our friends about it. This restaurant has been opened only one year and I hope it will get more traction.

    The drinks are a must, especially their pisco sour. We tried the mixto grill plate that included…read morescallops, shrimps, and octopus! The shrimps were so good, they had a charbroiled flavor. It was a nice sampler to try everything, however, the octopus was a bit chewy. We also had a ceviche dish with scallop and fish. The scallops were sweet and delicious, I would order a scallop only ceviche if they served it. The server was very informative introducing the dishes, thought process, and specials menu. As the restaurant got more busy, expected on Friday night, then there were less check ins with our server. I would definitely return to try their hot plates and stir fry dishes.
