La Jaiba Brava Restaurant — Restaurant in Live Oak

I walkde into this place because I was feeling like seafood. It sounded like a good idea at the time. I got seated and had my waiter asked me what I wanted alll seemed going as well until. False advertising for the shrimp cocktail I received had no muscles only 1. And price was expensive not cheap. I asked my waiter what her name was. So I may communicate with her. She replied me! And turned left and right. I feel she must of thought I was trying to hit on her. And then the cook brought my food to the table more liquid than food. Expect for prawns. Low end seafood place. Salsa was dull and pico de gallo was old looking unappetizing. Go to Watsonville for some real Mexican seafood. Unless you wanna throw away your money go here....

From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed and appreciated. The atmosphere is lively yet comfortable, with warm decor that makes you feel at home. But let’s talk about the food—simply outstanding! Every dish is bursting with authentic Mexican flavors, perfectly seasoned, and beautifully presented. The guacamole was fresh and flavorful, the tacos were packed with mouth-watering fillings, and the enchiladas… just wow. To top it off, the service was impeccable; our server was friendly, attentive, and truly knowledgeable about the menu. If you’re craving Mexican food, look no further. This place is a must-visit! We’ll be back...

Reason for the 3 stars is the prices sky rocketed, their more expensive then el Palomar cafe!! The food still great but a 2 item combo is the same price as carne asada Plate, 2 item dishes have hardly any meat or no meat at all they should not be $20!!! They where at a decent price before the change over, even at $20 for carne asada, a Plate that should be $18 tops, as a regular this turned me off!! I can only eat here 1 time a year at these high prices!! I could have ate at crowsnest or shadow brook at my $51 + $10 tip= $61 for 2 meals and 2...
