" I don't often write reviews, but I feel compelled after my visit here. Mariscos El Oceano has a special charm. The moment you step in, the aroma of seafood greets you. I ordered the seafood cocktail, which was refreshing and packed with flavor. The service was prompt, and I appreciated the warm and inviting atmosphere. I would recommend this place to anyone craving authentic seafood. I can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for Mariscos El Oceano, especially after hearing good things from friends. While the service was friendly and the place looked great, I was less impressed with the food. The shrimp I ordered was fine, but the seasoning was a bit off. It tasted good but didn’t wow me. The atmosphere was nice and the complimentary ceviche was a lovely touch. Might give it another shot, but my expectations are tempered now. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had the best time at Mariscos El Oceano with a group of friends! Each dish we tried only proved how fantastic this place is. From the fresh ceviche to the mixed seafood platter, everything was spectacular. The complimentary shot at the end was a nice surprise too. Our server was incredibly friendly, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. I plan to come back many more times! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my second time visiting Mariscos El Oceano, and I have to say I was impressed once again. They really have their seafood dishes down! The ceviche was so flavorful, and the shrimp cocktail was fresh and tasty. The service is incredible; our server made sure we had everything we needed quickly. The atmosphere is upbeat and welcoming, making it a great place for a night out. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have to share my thoughts about this restaurant because I found it quite lacking during my visit. To start, the shrimp empanadas were dry, and the seafood soup was not all that great. The only redeeming quality was the service; our waiter was attentive and friendly. The atmosphere was nice, but I won't be returning due to the underwhelming food experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Mariscos El Oceano is a great seafood spot! The food is authentic, and the flavors take you straight to Mexico. Their cocktails are strong, and the ceviche is superb! The ambiance is bright and lively. My only issue was the wait time which was a little lengthy during peak hours. Nevertheless, the quality of food made it worth it - I happily recommend this place to anyone who loves seafood. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have mixed feelings about Mariscos El Oceano. I found the ambiance definitely nice, but the food didn’t wow me as I had hoped. The salsa was excessive, and the seafood was alright but could use more seasoning. On the brighter side, the service was commendable, with attentive staff keeping our drinks filled. I might give it another chance. " (*Curated Review*)
