" I had an enjoyable experience at El Quino with my family! The food was authentic, especially the fish tacos. My kids adored the macaroni and cheese, and my partner loved the shrimp ceviche. It was great to see a place that caters to a diverse audience. Although we had a bit of a wait during peak hours, the food was worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" So glad we discovered El Quino! We were looking for a seafood restaurant and came across it by chance. The menu was extensive with so many traditional Mexican dishes. I ordered the Sopes and my partner had the shrimp tacos. Both dishes were well portioned and flavorful, truly reflecting the authentic cooking I love. The only downside was the noise level. It was somewhat crowded and made conversation a bit challenging. " (*Curated Review*)

" I absolutely adore El Quino! It's one of my go-to spots whenever I want authentic Mexican seafood. The shrimp tacos were fresh and delicious while the mojitos were refreshing. Lovely ambiance too; it felt warm and inviting. I've never had a bad experience here, and I love how the staff always remembers my favorites. Highly recommend for anyone in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our recent visit to El Quino became a regular spot for me now! The variety of seafood dishes on their menu is commendable, and I was glad we got to try a bit of everything. The quality really stood out—everything tasted incredibly fresh! We noticed they had a revolving special on the micheladas each day, which was a nice touch. A pretty neat dining experience overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a date night at El Quino recently and absolutely loved it! The atmosphere is romantic with dim lighting, and the staff was attentive but not overly present. I ordered the shrimp ceviche, and it was fresh and zesty—exactly what I was craving. The best part was how the server recommended a few great drinks to complement our meal. I'm definitely coming back for more seafood soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first visit to El Quino. What a pleasant surprise! The seafood was fresh and delightfully prepared. My friend and I shared a few snack plates, including some amazing calamari and shrimp. Everything was spiced just right, making each bite enjoyable. I can’t wait to bring my family next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Quino is hands down the best Mexican restaurant I’ve been to in Tucson! The seafood is fresh, rich in flavors, and just feels like home. You can tell that they put a lot of love into their cooking. I tried their signature dish, the Seafood Tower, and it was simply amazing. The staff was friendly and the place was clean. Having been there twice now, I'm already planning my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)
