Mariscos La Reyna #2 — Restaurant in Dallas

Having been my second time here I felt like I needed to say something about it. This place is deceivingly awesome. . I must've driven past it a couple dozen times before noticing it right on the intersection. Tonight I had the "Super Caldo de Mariscos" (Seafood soup). Wish I had this after a night of shenanigans! It's got just enough spice to make you leak at the nose. I believe the citrus back notes come from a scoop of pico de gallo that's dropped in here. And it's perfect. The veggies are firm and still taste like they should. The fish perhaps a little over cooked but the shrimp and octopus are spot on. The toasted "bolillo" bread comes on the side. And yes you should dip it in the soup. It's a whole lot of food. There's a smaller serving available as well. The vibe is old school and I dig it. Check out the vintage jukebox turned digital. It's got some good tunes. Service is prompt and staff is attentive...

Our family loves this place. We go there at least 3 times a month. The best is the campechana, I like the shrimp and oyster one but my niece loves the shrimp and octopus one. If you're there on a date try out the Super Mariscada which has a little bit of everything. It was 2 shrimp cocktails, 2 fried Chipotle fish tacos, 4 fried and 4 grilled shrimps, 2 large pieces of fried fish, fries and salad. For those of you who do not like seafood or Mexican seafood to be exact try out the chicken enchiladas. Those enchiladas are to die for! I always order seafood and have my signify other get the enchiladas so that we can share. The best thing about this place will be their homemade warm salsas. We have tried multiple times to make it at home and have not been able to so when we are craving it we drive out there. The prices are affordable and you can enjoy a nice date out...

This place is an amazing gem! I thought they only had one location and was elated to see there are 5 more. Amazing seafood, always prepared fresh and very filling. I got 2 appetizers (shrimp cocktail and prepared oysters) and was unable to finish one. It's also a great way to immerse yourself into culture and learn Spanish. The atmosphere was a little eclectic, quaint and clean. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about each dish. They also care that you're enjoying your meal without constantly bombarding you. If you glance in your server's direction, they'll be at your table...
