Mariscos El Governador — Restaurant in Anaheim

This place was open for dine-in, with sanitizer available at the entrance, all servers did have masks. Service was good. However, I felt the price point for 3 people ordering tostadas at approximately $75 was not worth it. Or perhaps, being from out of town, LA pricing caught me completely off guard. Take from this what you can get but it did directly affect my review. At $25 per person, I do honestly expect more quality through taste and presentation of the food. I understand that COVID-19 has pressed many restaurants to use disposable, one time use serving-ware. Here, the food was served on Styrofoam plates 😭; if this place is open for dine-in, opting for a better-reusable option with our current climate conditions is necessary. **because Styrofoam is terrible for our environment.

The items ordered include two tostadas de ceviche de pescado (with an add on of callo), two tostadas de aguachile $9, two tostadas embarazadas (camaron cocido, pulpo, Jaiba, abalon) $12?, one beer and one michelada. As you can tell from the pictures, presentation was not high on the priority list.

I truly enjoyed the spice level on the aguachile tostadas which comes with your choice of red or green salsa.

Michelada came prepared with a chile rim, chopped pepino in it (? Don't know why, as that would fudge reduce the carbonation of the beer) and already had the beer in it when it arrived. The flavor was okay; nothing extremely flavorful. If the beer was served to the customer, on the side, for the customer to serve at their discretion, that would have been better.

Great Customer Service, very welcoming and great atmosphere overall. Very clean and comfortable to dine in or for pick up. Waitresses are very attentive and always have a smile when you call or when they approach periodically to make sure your needs are well met. You're always greeted in a very nice, welcoming and respectful way, ypu don't have to wait too long for a table to be seated or for service. Don't have to wait tol long for your drink or even your food after ordering. I've been here many times and i always have the same great and very satisfying experience. Wether you order traditional tacos, burritos or sea food, you'll be very happy with the taste of any of their plates. I'm definitely coming back over and over again. This place is on top of my list for restaurants that I'm happy i visited. I will recommend anyone to come and try it for themselves. Thank You to all the staff for the great service, food and overall experience.Definitely a five...

I had the best time at El Gobernador! Their food is incredible – I’m still thinking about those Camarones Momia! Bacon-wrapped shrimp, stuffed with creamy crab – each bite was heaven. I also got the El Gobernador Tacos, and the combo of crunchy shrimp with melted cheese, bell peppers, and onions was so tasty I didn’t want it to end. Oh, and the Ensenada Taco with battered shrimp topped with fresh cabbage, pico, and a chipotle sauce was just amazing.

To top it off, I sipped on two mango margaritas – so refreshing and just the right balance of sweetness.

One thing that really added to the vibe was the remodeled seating area. It's stylish and comfortable, perfect for catching a game – we watched Game 2 of the World Series there, and it just felt like the best way to enjoy amazing food and sports. If you’re looking for fantastic seafood with a fun atmosphere, El Gobernador is...
