“ incredible crab taco and campechana ceviche. So fresh and so delicious. Nice friendly staff and restaurant have AC ”
“ Very good and authentic food. We asked a local we met where a good place near Centro was and she suggested this one. She said it was not fancy but her family eats there often. Although they were not busy with dine in, we noticed the phone was constantly ringing and the employees delivering orders to people. I got Diablo Shrimp and my wife got Governor Tacos with Shrimp. Both plates were very tasty. Definitely worth visiting. ”
“ I wonderful place with really kind people and delicious seafood! It’s right in the center and much more local and affordable than others around, while being very proper! ”
“ Always stop here when visiting Mazatlan. Never disappointed. Consistently good traditional Mexican seafood. Service is outstanding. On this trip, we didn't realize they were closing when we came in! They seated us, were warm and friendly, answered our menu questions and served us delicious food and margaritas. As was typical in Maz restaurants, we were not rushed at all and it wasn't until we were leaving, I realized the doors were closed and the sign flipped. They close at 7! The place had emptied out as we ordered, but we were clueless! They were so gracious and accommodating as always. Even when we kept them almost an hour past closing time! Great food, gracious staff and reasonable prices! We have been coming here for almost 15 years and will always return! ”
