Their fish tacos are amazing. I don’t even like fish, but I will destroy those fish tacos. Any chance I get!

Update 7/16/22 Food here is generally pretty good. Service and cleanliness can definitely improve. Tables were sticky and condiment tray was a mess. Also ordered my burrito without rice (see receipt) and of course, they missed that. 3 stars for service and cleanliness. Tried the fish tacos, a shrimp taco, a shrimp dorado taco, a spicy shrimp taco, Mar y Tierra burrito and a campechana cocktail. Too much food for two people, but wanted to try a few different dishes. Tacos were all pretty good. 4/5 stars. Burrito was also good, but I didn’t get much asada. Really just full of rice. I don’t hate rice, but it’s a filler that doesn’t belong in a burrito in my opinion. I didn’t finish it in this sitting, so maybe will find it later :) last but not least was the cocktail. Really good flavor and nice mix of seafood. ——— Good, but can be so much better. Food is decent, but service and organization can be better. First we tried calling in our order to go to make things easier for all, but was put on hold and then forgotten about. We were already on our way, so waited on the phone for about 7 mins while we drove there then decided to hang up when we arrived to order inside. They have good spacing for people in line to order at the cashier, but you have to walk past everyone in line to get out after you order. Kind of defeats the purpose. You also have to make sure to ask for salsa, limes, chiles or anything else. I was fortunate to ask for salsa and roasted chiles, but forgot the limes :( I think I saw jalapeños and carrots as well, but will take note for the next time. Food wise, we ordered a shrimp taco combo and two fish tacos. Hit the spot but not sure it was good enough to warrant a trip back anytime soon. May try La Bufadora or Taco Nazo and see how they are doing these days and compare notes.

Wonderful place to get a quick meal at reasonable prices. Quaint family run restaurant with great food. I had the #1 Combo plate with a shrimp taco, fish taco with rice, frijoles and a soda. The tacos were deep fried Baja stlye with all the Toppings. Delicious! Quick service with condiments of Jalapeños, Pickled onions and Limes. Highly recommend this place. Lots of families ordered food for dinner while I was there. Definitely will dine here again!

I love this spot. I come here mostly for the Tacos but their other food is really delicious. Tuesdays are Taco Tuesday and The Fish Tacos are 2 for 3 something. They are classic with the fried battered Fish, Pico de Gallo, lettuce and cream Definitely worth it, they are Some of the best Fish Tacos around. On Thursdays, their other Tacos are on special as well. Everything is always fresh, prompt service and the line goes fast.

My family's go to for mariscos around Azusa Monrovia area. The seafood is always quality and fresh. Nice portions decent price. Clean and good service. Consistent and timely with my orders, dine in or to go. They have new items and the sushi rolls are huge. They are good also.
