I have been a guest of this restaurant for the past 11 years. I still go once a week, minimum. I consider this place my «watering hole», the waitresses know me by my first name. The point in all this is that they treat you like family here. I have tried many other Mexican restaurants most out there are rude, inconsiderate and out right nasty. This place consistently delivers great food. The beer is COLD the mugs even colder. They will cater to your exact needs just need to ask. If you visit there I am gonna give you a few inside tips. Order there specialty plate«El Governador»(The Governor) it’s a house special. If you enjoy shrimp order this plate I guarantee you’ll love it. The salsa they give you with the chips is the best period. Others are watered down or to spicy. There’s is chunky, tasty and with the right amount of kick. The ceviche is superb, ask for a tostada of ceviche to try it out. Also if you visit in the evenings ask for the head waitress her name is Tere, short for Teresa. Once she gets to know you she will never let you down and always make sure you leave with a smile on you’re face. This place has been in business over 25 years now. And I have been able to enjoy a decade of service here. If you wanna eat, drink and be marry then come to El rey del Marisco. You’ll become a customer for life.

Service was superb, all the waitresses were very accommodating and nice! The food came out so quick and was hot and delicious! Large shrimp cocktail had tons of shrimp and was more that enough to split with 2 people. Comfortable atmosphere and clean. Micheladas we served in an ice cold mug of cold it was icing the top of my beer!!! My Fave! Can’t wait to come back to this place!!!

This is a great place to enjoy authentic mexican food! Very friendly environment and good service. Their salsas are awesome(lots of flavor and just enough spicyness!). They have a great tasting horchata too! Their seafood items are very well prepared with lots of flavor. Prices are very reasonable!
