HUGE portions & great for price! Seafood is better than the asada meat in ny opinion. But overall definitely worth it!

We recommend it! Food, atmosphere, and customer service were great! Julio was our waiter, and he was great-super responsive and helpful. He even sang Las Mañanitas (great voice) for our birthday girl! We had a little bit of everything and all the food was delicious. Definitely coming back.

We have visited this location once when it was Los plebes and then again under the new owners. The food is delicious and authentic here and did not disappoint. We were happy with all the food that we ordered, which is why we came back again. The servers here are also super friendly and attentive. The restaurant is definitely a family friendly establishment and we noticed quite a few of families, but also noticed couples and people out with friends and family. The only thing off about this place was that the pricing we received on the check from the items we ordered, was different from the pricing on the menu. We only noticed the difference because we had managed to save a menu on the side and were able to compare pricing from the check to the menu. It came out to about 10% more. We pointed it out to the server and the manager said it was because they were making a switch under new owners which is why there was a price difference in the system. They gave a “discount” which only took off 4% instead of the 10%, but we didn’t want to further escalate the problem because it was getting late. Even if there is a difference in the system, customers should be charged what is advertised instead of changing it on the check without the customer knowing. If you visit here just make sure to keep a menu to compare pricing. I’ll give them the pass however since they recently did change owners, and I’d still be willing to visit again.

Absolutely fantastic! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and cozy. The seafood was incredibly fresh—each dish was bursting with flavor. The shrimp was cooked to perfection, with just the right amount of seasoning. The service was outstanding, with the staff being attentive and friendly. If you're a seafood lover, this place is an absolute must visit. Can’t wait to come back!

First time we went there, we were served by a cute cosplay looking waitress. (they should carry that theme) We had great food. Over ordered because we didn't know the humongous sizes. But we bought the leftovers home for next day's lunch. Second time, we got the Aqua chille which was amazing! The shrimps were very fresh. Amount of shrimps worth the price we paid for. The place reminds me a lot of Mexico. The 2 cute red chairs for occasions definitely brings a bit of Latino culture into OC. Looks like a fun place for large groups. The location is kind of off the restaurant track. They need some good social media promotion to get more customers.

I came in to get some breakfast and was wonderfully surprised to find they serve a Pupusa Buffet Saturdays and Sundays. The pupusas were the best I ever had. Not greasy at all. I was told this is a new special they do weekend mornings. Such a great price too! $15 for all I can eat! Sign me up AGAIN!
