Best Seafood Restaurant Mexican Style !!!
karaōke Nights and Shows After 11:30pm.

Second time here. The place is empty… why? You Fort Worth folks have a gem right under your nose! Great service, although I am the only patron. Sipping a fine margarita and enjoying a meal so large and tasty that I am just amazed everyone isn’t here.
I tried the super mariscado and loved it. You should venture out of your comfort zone and try this place. You won’t be disappointed!

Simply awesome food! If you want authentic Mexican seafood then ditch la playa maya and come here. Have eaten here several times and love it!

This is a great find. I noticed they were open at 1am back in February of 2014 and they had a big crowd. I finally made it back to try it out and it’s amazing. Obviously by the title, they’re a Mexcian seafood restaurant. Their lunch menu is reasonable with large portions. I had their beef fajitas yesterday and went back to try their Guisa de Mariscos today. The fajitas were large pieces of meat and the portion was large, even for a person who tries to eat large lunches. The Guisa was incredible. It was a mix of scallops, shrimp, octopus, snow crab, squid, tilapia, clams, and mussels in a garlic, lime, and habenero sauce. I’m pretty critical of food that I eat and this is definitely on my «A» list. I’m going to go back soon to try the caldo, but after 2 days in a row with great food, I expect it to be amazing as well.
The shrimp coctel is on par with Calle Doce (Oak Cliff location, not Lakeside). The shrimp aren’t as large, but the sauce is just as good!
Be prepared, the service is lacking, but the food is so good, I don’t care. Waitresses are slow to refill drinks, refill chips & salsa, bring out the check, and let you pay out. The food doesn’t come out quick, but they cook it fresh to order, so I’m ok with that.
HOWEVER, the food is damn good. It’s one of those places where the food is so good, you will put up with slower service because you’re not going to find better anywhere close.
I’ll go back and keep on going back. They’re open till 10 Sun-​Thurs and until 2 on Fri-​Sat.

Shortens drive to Mexico from DFW. Rarely any gringos and no texmex. Just great Mexican seafood, friendly atmosphere and cold beer.
