Mariscos Tulum — Restaurant in Harlingen

I'm traditionally not a seafood kinda guy but this place was new in town and i suggested to the wife we try something different. The hope was they would cater to the area and have some sort of Mexican anything in case the seafood was off. We were right. We arrived and were told any seat available. Server showed up almost immediately and took the drink order and started us with a seafood soup. Then came back several times cause we didn't know what to order. We appreciated the patience. Finally we ordered. Daughter had a Mar y Tierra baked potato ( large fajita and shrimp potato loaded with cheese) with the shrimp on the side. Very large, well served, hot, fresh, cheesy with good flavor. Wife had the fried shrimp tacos. Her only suggestion was they would taste better with cabbage. Although after tasting my fried fish, she said next time it was gonna be fried fish tacos. Either way, she liked it and she's super seafood picky. I had a traditional fish platter. Very well served. Large fish filet, cooked perfectly and very tender with piping hot french fries, fried shrimp, salad, toast and rice. Good grief, it was a meal! Everything was hot and fresh. Daughter could not finish her potato and I left there as stuffed as the potato. Service was good, ambiance was quiet. Although it might not always be this quiet, we will...

We decided to try this new restaurant, 1st off when you arrive you have to seat yourself, there's no hostess to greet and get you a table. Tables are dirty, the condiments and things on the table are super greasy not cleaned, we waited a while to get our drinks and another while to get some chips, another while to get a small soup, the waitress took out order and it took a while again. We got our food but there were no utensils to eat so we waited a lil more, the food taste was a ok not that great, my husband ordered enchiladas de camaron the sauce looked like it was from a can, bad taste 30 minutes later after finishing our food my husband got diarrhea!!!! He said his food didn't have a good taste at all. My food was mas o menos but over all we will not be coming back, the atmosphere was as a usual restaurant but the music in the background? Reggeaton 🤮 so not very pleasant. The whole time we were there we were not offered any seconds or assistance from the waiter. The restaurant was not busy at all to say that was an excuse for lack of service. Parking lot its too small for a restaurant. I don't recommend this restaurant. We will stick to Muelle 37 to me their food and atmosphere is way...

I’ve ordered ceviche from here numerous time. Super delicious. Today I ordered the large Vs the small that I normally get. It was just a big cup of ceviche. No crackers, chips, tostadas, nothing. So I didn’t eat lunch because that’s what I ordered. When I got out of work, I stopped by and told them they forgot the chips and asked if I could get them. The girl said “we don’t ceviche with any kinda chips or tostada or crackers” told her I’ve ordered quite a few times and it always does. She shook her head and told me no. I asked how I’m supposed to eat it then, she just shrugged her shoulders and said I could buy tostadas from them. I bought them because I’m assuming the business needed the money that bad. I won’t go back after this, she didn’t care at all and no where else just gives cups of ceviche without anything to eat it with. Sad, employees tend to hurt...
