Dana TedescoMarch 8, 2013You had me at complimentary fish tostada w/ HOT HOT salsa & squeeze of COOL lime. Langostinos Estilo Nayarit & Crab (fed 3!)! DIP EVERYTHING YOU CAN IN THAT DELICIOUS SAUCE!!!
Serious EatsSeptember 2, 2013You’re probably already familiar with El Veneno’s practically perfect marlin ceviche, but the shrimp ceviche is even better.
Sean Maccarone-ReedMarch 2, 2016Really good menu and options. Prices for some things are a bit steep. BYOB makes up for it :-)
Andrea OjedaMarch 9, 2013Order to share. This is a lot of food! And you can't go wrong with anything. The octopus was just delicious!
BYOB. I recommend some bubbly to drink with the langostinos. Don't forget the garlic bread to dip into the sauce.
John CowherdNovember 29, 2017Wait down stairs , we have a table up stairs for you! We walk by 3 empty tables to go up stairs to wait again for a table.wait in the back please!we wait!!we patiently waited ....time to go!!!
Cecilia NavataApril 28, 2012Try the fried huachinango (red snapper) in the nayarit style. Delish but beware. It is a huge fish!
Great seafood here!!! Try a shrimp tostada for an appetizer.
Cindy KurmanDecember 29, 2009This place is so worth the visit. Crest seafood. Try crab legs Nayarit Style. The Chapuzon del mar and steamed fish so worth it.
- Elizabeth GàmezMarch 19, 2017Terrible service and the cleanliness is questionable. It took over an hour to be seated when we were told 20-25 mins. The floor was covered with crumbs and cracker wrappers. Seafood was mediocre.
Come here for the awesome seafood- forget the service.
Anne RearnkhamMarch 6, 2010For self-induced crab fatality, order the Nayarit style crabs. $30 for a platter large enough to feed 2 people!
Joshua MartinezMay 18, 2014Horrible first experience! We wait 25 minutes to be seated, then 20 mins or so after we are sat, we are told they ran out of crab, then we had to argue to comp our ten dollar bill for the trouble. 👎
Portions on the langostinos have changed. And by changed, I mean smaller portions and size. Used to be 12ct, now its 8ct. :(
