Read moreSo I leave a lot of good reviews but this place it just wow! We got the shrimp ceviche, oysters, fried red snapper and fried mojarras topped with octopus scallops and shrimp. We also both got the margarita bulldog which is basically a Corona rita but we got on the rocks not frozen, came with a full size corona not the tiny ones! The ceviche was so good and fresh, a lot of shrimp, well worth the price, plenty of hot sauce options to spice it up for any palette including 3 different habanero sauces. Both whole fishes were fried perfectly, crunchy, tender, seasoned well. I ate one half and was so proud I thought I finished it just to realize there was another half to this fish so we both had to take ours home 🤣 but iv never been so excited for leftovers! Even just the beans and rice paired so well with the spicy sauce from the mojarras, the entire experience was one of the best iv had for a while. Friendly service, they do not rush you at all, very laid back environment with good music! Definitely reccomend for anyone looking for a unique and reasonably priced mariscos experience in Vegas. All of this...

The table we were stationed which on our receipt shows station 5 had so many flies and when we informed the server she said there was nothing she could do. She only came twice to our table the entire visit and we had the bus boy for assistance getting refills and extra food amenities that were needed as we were eating and we needed more limes and drinks. When we informed the waiter when she came for her final part of providing the check she raised her voice at us and said that was not her problem that she was busy. We asked for the manager and she told us the manager was too busy to see us , so then we asked for the managers name and she yelled Annie while throwing our dishes together. Will never go back to this location as it has made a lasting impression . We pay over $250 to eat there and I’m greatly disappointed.I hope this server Midia would not be relocated to the ones I’ve visited with much greater customer Service as she would not be able to keep up with the...
