  They've been working harder to keep the place clean and the orders right. We've been back a few times since the first review and we have loved the experiences since. Recently discovered the Sangria Preparada drink on their menu and I am in love. It's a mix of red wine, mineral soda, sweetener (agave I think) and a splash of lemon. Can I say wow?! Have tried the filete de pescado al mojo de ajo (fish filet in garlic sauce), their seafood salad, octopus tacos since and everything has been delicious. It has become a regular place for us to get lunch now.

  A couple of a colleague's coworkers recommended that we try El Pescador if we wanted some good authentic Mexican seafood. I'm a huge fan of Mexican food, but was curious about the seafood.
  
  Loved that the restaurant had an open patio area to eat and when we went today, the weather was gorgeous. It felt like we were actually on the coast.
  
  Service was prompt, and food came out quickly enough. But they got my order wrong. I had ordered a shrimp taco and they brought me a fish taco. The fact that they had swordfish on the menu was a nice surprise. I didn't care much for any of the sauces on the table as the green sauce for my asada taco was better than any of the bottled sauces.
  
  The beans were decent, but the rice was dry. Overall food was okay, portions were good. Tacos are bigger than expected. It wasn't something that stood or made me want to go "I have to go back there!"
  
  Would I recommend it? No, I don't plan on going back.

  Our go to place whenever my bf craves seafood. The staff is very friendly. You come in and it's self seating. It's a small place so when it gets busy it's hard to get around as the chairs and tables are close together. The orange sauce that comes with the complimentary chips is very delicious something I've never had in an Mexican restaurant, it has a garlic tastes it's something I always look forward to when I go in. I'm very curious as to how they make it, it's so good. I also enjoy their tacos. One of the best places for carne asada in my option however the taco price are about $2.50 but well worth it. The seafood platter is delicious there's different options there's shrimp,fish and a combo which is a bit of everything. They also give big portions. I would definitely recommend this place. It does get warm on a hot day, not too sure of their ac is working well.

  I was in the mood for something spicy, I've heard about this place but was skeptical . It was pretty loud but I took it as an attitude approach of the culture. If you aren't use to a loud household you may want to go by in the am. I didn't mind it, the service was great. She was a young girl but very attentive and she didn't come around so much that I was getting asked if everything was ok with food in my mouth. Their chips were fresh, but the salsa was pretty spicy. Seems like a mixture of habanero and a something else I wasn't able to pin point. I like hot things so watch out for the red salsa if you aren't a spicy lover.
  
  I was disappointed to hear they had no beef steak. I wanted to try their tacos. So instead I went with a chicken taco with the salsa on the side. Since I did ask for the salsa of it they gave me a serving on the side. which happens to be green and is not as hot as the red salsa, it's kinda limey. The chicken taco was served with onion and cilantro. The chicken was ok but went well with the salsa.
  
  Michelada was bomb! Served with tajin around the rim and shrimps.
  
  Agua chiles was exceptional. If you're into hot and lime dishes. The shrimp was soaked in lime juice with hot  jalapeños and purple onions. Around the rim we're thin slices of cucumber  and salt And wedges of avocado. The dis was mouth watery to say the least. If you're into Mexican styled seafood dishes you'll love this place for this dish.
  
  I'd like to return and try their fried fish.

  Came here on a Friday. Very yummy. We ordered fried fish and camarones empanizados, as well as aguachile, michelada. Totally recommend.
