" Celebrated a family gathering at Mariscos El Viejon. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. The dishes we ordered didn't disappoint; the flavors were authentic, straight from the coast! The staff was friendly and attentive. Thankful for a great meal at this local hot spot. " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoyed my visit but had a few bumps during my meal. The food was good, but I felt the portions could be larger for the price. I also found myself waiting a bit longer than expected for service. Overall, it was decent, but I've had better experiences at other seafood places. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited this place trying to find authentic seafood and I surely found it here! The aguachile was great, and so was the michelada. The only thing I was surprised by was the cash payment policy, which is a little old-fashioned. But overall, it’s a great experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Mariscos El Viejon is worth a visit if you're craving fresh seafood! The flavors were bold and authentic, reminiscent of coastal Mexico. The cash policy is a hassle, but the food makes it worth it. Overall, I had a wonderful meal, and I'll definitely come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" While the food was good, I found the prices a bit higher than expected. The quality is there, but I just felt like I didn’t get enough bang for my buck. The cash-only policy is also a bit outdated for me. Service was attentive, but the overall experience wasn’t anything remarkable. I'll probably go back, but I'm not in a rush. " (*Curated Review*)

" Mariscos El Viejon has a reputation for quality seafood and it's easy to see why. Their grilled fish is simply divine! The surroundings are nothing fancy but cozy enough. Just be aware of the cash-only system when planning your visit. A reliable spot for great seafood! " (*Curated Review*)

" Truthfully, I wasn’t expecting much when I walked into Mariscos El Viejon, but I was blown away by the tacos. They’re incredibly flavorful, and the shrimp were so fresh. The service was also very welcoming, and the prices were fair. Just a little hard to find parking, but definitely worth the trip! " (*Curated Review*)
