" We took a family trip to Mariscos La Costa and were amazed by the authentic dishes they offer. The flavors were perfectly balanced, and every bowl of soup was steaming hot. While the atmosphere was lively, it got too loud at times for our liking. Despite the noise, the food was such a hit that we plan on returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing so many good things about Mariscos La Costa, I finally decided to try it for lunch with some friends. The shrimp cocktail was definitely the highlight of the meal – it was so flavorful and packed with shrimp! Not to mention, the chips and salsa they served were a perfect addition. The service was friendly too, although a bit slow at times. However, the ambiance was lively and really added to the dining experience. I’d say if you're looking for authentic mariscos, this is the place to be. I can't wait to come back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I brought my family to Mariscos La Costa for dinner last week and had an absolute blast! The ceviche was spot on with just the right amount of spice. My husband ordered the molcajete, and he was impressed with how rich the flavors were. The atmosphere was lively, and we felt immersed in the culture. The only drawback was the service – it was a bit slow despite the restaurant not being overly busy. Overall, it was a wonderful evening, and we can't wait to return to try more items on the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" On our first visit to Mariscos La Costa, we found ourselves mesmerized by the scenic decorations and lively atmosphere! But, sadly, the food didn’t quite live up to our high expectations. My shrimp tacos, while generous in portion, had very little flavor. The service was friendly but a bit slow, which added to our disappointment. Nonetheless, the ambiance kept our spirits high; I might consider giving it another shot in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" Mariscos La Costa offers a wonderful array of seafood dishes that are flavorful and satisfying. I had the pleasure of dining here on a busy Friday evening, and although the wait was longer than expected, it was absolutely worth it! My shrimp cocktail was one of the best I've ever had; fresh, tangy, and served with homemade chips. The restaurant itself has a charming decor that enhances the dining experience. There are definitely some improvements needed in service, as our server was busy and couldn't check on us often, but I will definitely be coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been coming to Mariscos La Costa for years, and it has always held a special place in my heart. The atmosphere is always bustling with laughter and chatter, making it feel vibrant and alive. I tried their famous shrimp cocktail and it did not disappoint! The shrimp were large, juicy, and served in an amazing sauce. My only complaint is that the music was a bit loud, making conversation tricky. But overall, I’m always happy to come back here! " (*Curated Review*)

" We chose Mariscos La Costa for a family night out and let me tell you, we were not disappointed! The shrimp tacos were a hit with my kids, and I absolutely loved the aguachiles. It had a nice kick and was refreshing. The staff were attentive and friendly, which made our time there even better. The atmosphere was vibrant, filled with lively music and laughter. Portions were generous as well, so we definitely felt like we got good value for our money. Overall, a delightful experience! " (*Curated Review*)
