" Las Islas Marias has completely charmed me! From the fresh seafood platter to the wide array of Mexican dishes, every bite was delicious. I especially enjoyed their spicy green salsa that gave my meal a perfect balance of flavors. Despite some service hiccups, the food is what stands out here. I'm looking forward to my next visit already! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations but was let down after my last visit. The place was chaotic with no one seeming to manage the tables. I waited over 30 minutes just to place my order, and when it came, they got my order wrong. I reported the issue, but the staff seemed uninterested in resolving it. The food quality didn’t quite match what I'd heard. Awkward experience; I don’t think I will be returning any time soon unless I hear about improvements. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had such a fantastic experience at Las Islas Marias! The seafood was fresh and bursting with flavor. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure we were well taken care of throughout our meal. I would say the fried calamari was one of the best I've ever tasted. I highly recommend this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" All I can say is WOW! This place has AMAZING seafood dishes that remind me of the beach back home. I had the fish tacos, and they were spot-on! I loved the homemade hot sauce they offered. The service was friendly and attentive, making the entire visit enjoyable. Perhaps a bit crowded, but that's a good sign, isn't it? Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" I adore this restaurant! The seafood selection is delightful. Whenever I come here, I order the fish tacos and always leave satisfied. The combination of ingredients is simply perfect – lightly breaded fish with a zingy sauce! The only downside was that the decor feels a bit outdated, but that's easy to overlook when the food is this good! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't believe how good the shrimp empanadas were! They were perfectly fried with a deliciously spicy green salsa on the side. I also had the fish tacos, which were delightful. The portion sizes were generous but the service was somewhat patchy; I had to flag down the waiter a couple of times. If the service were a bit quicker, this spot would definitely be a 5-star in my book! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic experience! We dined on a Sunday afternoon. The seafood was fresh and tasted incredible! The prices were reasonable considering the large portions served. The staff was friendly yet busy, leaving us to enjoy our meal without being rushed. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves quality seafood! " (*Curated Review*)
