My wife and I tried it after a couple of years of just driving past it while shopping at the center. The pictures of the food and menu here on Yelp were helpful and looked encouraging. We originally thought it was just a noisy bar for toddlers in their 20s, that would have "MEH" food at best. We were very wrong happy to be so. They do have a noisy bar, but the interior beautiful and most importantly the food was FANTASTIC. Everything we ordered was fresh served hot. The coffee and other drinks we ordered were perfect. Their servers are attentive, hard working and knew their stuff about the menu items. We left there extremely happy and will definitely come back to try more of their dishes.

I came here for my Uncle's birthday quite some time ago. We were a large party of 8. The restaurant's interior and exterior was nice and there was outdoor seating, covered with sunshades. Our waitress was friendly. Service was a bit slow, but it was understandable as they were a lot of people there that day. I have been to the El Pescador in Carson and it does not compare to this location in terms of the quality and taste of the food. I order the enchiladas de camaron (shrimp). It was very delicious and good portioned. I ordered the queso fundido as well and it was also good. At the end, they were very nice to take our picture for memories. It was $15 per photo, which costs about the same as a photo at Disneyland. I had a good experience here and would come back.

Stop by by for breakfast. Great customer service and the food and prices were decent. The place is more for party people than a regular family restaurant bit that's neither a positive or negative, just an observation. It depends on what time of mood you are and the vibe you intended to set. The food was fulfilling and the portions were decent.

Shrimp burrito was delicious. It definitely filled you up and then some. I loved the touch of grilled cheese and potatoes on the plate. For a drink, I had the tequila Cantarito which was a little strong. I liked the mix but could have done with less burrito. Such a great ambience, but a little loud. I deducted a star due to the loud noise and the lack of service. Our waitress came once every 20 minutes and we had to wave her down a couple times just to get a refill or salsa. I understand the live DJ makes it loud but it was so hard to have a conversation. I will think twice about coming back here.
