" I visited Mariscos Don Charley this weekend and it was a fantastic experience! We tried the fried fish and shrimp combo, which was excellent. Each dish was generously portioned and full of taste without overpowering any specific flavor. The service was prompt, and the staff made sure to check on us regularly without being intrusive. However, I noticed that the atmosphere could use a bit more coziness, but it didn't detract from the food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely fantastic seafood! We enjoyed every morsel of the fried fish and shrimp plate. The flavors were much richer than expected, and the cooking was definitely done right! Service was prompt, and the staff made us feel at home. The restaurant itself is a bit small but creates a cozy feel. I cannot recommend it highly enough to those searching for a great seafood dining experience with authentic tastes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Mariscos Don Charley is truly a hidden gem! I visited with my family last month and was taken aback by the outstanding quality of their seafood. Every dish was bursting with flavor, especially the shrimp tacos that were crispy yet tender. The atmosphere was family-friendly, which we appreciated as we had kids with us. The only downside was that service was a bit slow during peak hours, but the wait was worth it. Overall, we'd definitely come again! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place really surprised us! The menu had a good variety of seafood selections, and we tried the calamari and shrimp tacos which were both outstanding! It was nice to find a restaurant that truly captures the essence of Mexican seafood cuisine. The prices were reasonable and the portion sizes generous. Service was friendly and attentive; we felt well taken care of. We'd happily return again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, I had high expectations based on the reviews, but my experience was a mixed bag. The ceviche was delicious and clearly made from fresh ingredients, however, the fried fish dish was overly salted, making it pretty inedible for me. The service was welcoming but not very attentive. I left feeling disappointed, especially about the portion sizes not matching the price in some cases. I might give it another shot but not before checking other places. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the pleasure of dining at Mariscos Don Charley last week, and it left a lasting impression! The fried fish was perfectly seasoned and came with a hefty portion of coleslaw that complemented it very well. The ambiance was warm and family-oriented, which I appreciated. My only critique would be that they need to improve on the cleanliness aspect. The table was sticky upon arrival. Overall though, I will certainly be returning for more of their delicious offerings. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our meal at Mariscos Don Charley was a delightful experience! We had the octopus and shrimp cocktail which were both outstanding, truly capturing the authentic taste of Mexican seafood. The flavors were rich and immersive. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable about their menu. While the restaurant was quite small and could feel a bit crowded, the warm and inviting atmosphere balanced it all out. I'll surely come back next time I crave decent seafood. " (*Curated Review*)
