Mariscos Los Pinos

This is a well priced homey environment. I had an adobada burrito and it was delicious. They have very good salsa verde. I’m very comfortable here and I live nearby, so I will be back.

Tasted good at the time. Pretty sure I have food poisoning though. Definitely not worth the pain I’m in right now. I grew up going to Mexico every week, my stomach can take anything… So I thought!

the servers are ok but their faces are zombies they dont smile theyre so seriously that its like wen ordering its a drag… the food isnt that great neither :/

Great ousters, fresh meaty and a great price

I was diving by and was famished so I took a chance at Mariscos Los Pinos. I had gone there when a previous owner ran the restaurant, this was several years back. I read the Unilocal reviews and most we’re not very complimentary.
I said what the heck I will give it a try anyway.
First so all the place is rather spartan and some would say a little sketchy. Many PPV boxing posters on the walls and Spanish language soccer on the TV. It reminded me of some of the basic family restaurants I have visited in Mexico. If you not into leaving your cultural comfort zone this place is not for you. Me, I like the experience and can overlook the ambience.
Now for the food. They specialize in seafood but have other options including carne asada tacos and burritos as well as other Mexican specialties. Hungry I choose the mixed fajitas which includes shrimp, beef and chicken. The shrimp were small but delicious as was the chicken and beef. The vegetables included caramelized onions and bell peppers were served on a sizzling cast iron platter with a side plate of rice and beans. I requested beans and veggies which included carrots and broccoli. I ordered corn tortillas and to my delight they were freshly made and so delicious. Overall the portion was huge and very delicious. The retried beans were outstanding as we’re the fajitas and the tortillas. I was asked if I wanted more tortillas (free) but declined. This could easily served two.
Forget the negative reviews… if you are adventuress and don’t mind the meager ambience and like freshly made corn tortillas, then try thus place.

If you are looking for a luxury dining experience, this isn’t the place for you. The restaurant is a dumpy little hole in the wall in a strip mall, but they have DELICIOUS food. The menu has tons of typos and no description of what each plate is, and it was difficult to ask questions because the young waitress spoke limited English. That aside, the chips were warm, the salsa was hot and fresh, and the food was terrific. I got a fish plate with some kind of red sauce, my husband got a pork plate with green chile sauce, and our daughter got a basic bean/​cheese burrito. None of us had leftovers — we ate every bite. The women’s bathroom is quirky — a room with two toilets but no stalls or barriers and no door lock — literally if you sit on the toilet and someone opens the door — everyone will see your business. They are in the midst of renovations so maybe that will change. Nonetheless, we had a 2-​for-​1 coupon and took a gamble and were pleasantly surprised. The food is GREAT, but as I stated above, this is a little dive with an old décor. We definitely plan on going back because good food is what we pay for — not updated furnishings or fancy place mats.

Nothing special, just a small family owned Mexican restaurant. They serve up basic Mexican food like tacos and burritos. Decent selection on seafood dishes and breakfast dishes. You get chips and salsa to start. Salsa is nothing special, although it is fresh.
Portions are good. Not too small not too large.
Prices are reasonable.
Good flavor to the food.
Service is OK.
3 of us ate for 28 bucks. Overall, not a bad place.
I went here during breakfast/​lunch hours but it seems like they serve up beer and liquor during dinner hours. They also have a big screen TV that show the games.
Looks like a local hang out joint.
