Mariscos El Alazan Estilo Nayarit: Reviews & Ratings
Great little place very clean. The food was delicious. The service was all right. Damion was good not too loud music which is makes everything better. I don't like loud music when I eat my food. I highly recommend this place. They have a good shrimp, ceviche I was disappointed that they were out of the octopus I drove from Anaheim and I will return
Came after a recommendation of my dad's coworker, and the food didn't disappoint. The seafood is estilo Nayarit, specifically Tecuala. They serve plates, estilo botanero, (finger food). Just the shrimp on the plate in whatever style/sauce you want with or without shell. If you stop by try the camarones a la cucaracha, they are bomb!! Omg they are like chicharrones (pork rinds) but shrimp and not super super fried that you can't taste the shrimp. They serve them with red onion and sliced cucumbers, and a side salsa of the actual agua chile (blended serrano peppers and lime juice). Dip the shrimp in the salsa and eat the whole thing, head, tail, legs. The coctel de camaron (shrimp cocktail) is a hot soup that's served in a bowl not a goblet. It has chopped onion, cucumber, and cilantro. It's big enough plate to be a full meal. This place is cash only so make sure you bring enough $$. The plates are sharing size and $22 a piece. It was 3 of us and we had 2 plates of the camarones a la cucaracha, 1 al mojo de ajo, 1 al vapor with chile and lime, and 1 coctel de cameron, but it was more than enough, with half of the coctel in a togo container. If you dine-in you can take a seat wherever, but take a look at the menu on the wall first as there are no paper menus. Great spot for lunch, can't wait to go back!
Muy buenos camarones a la diabla muy buen servicio, la agua de horchata tambien estaba buena. Vuelvo a regresar para los pulpos a la diabla. Gracias.
The food is great. Simple but really good. The service is awsone. Been eating here since 1997. Ambiance is very family oriented.....
Camarones a la diabla the best I will be back soon to try the pulpo a la diablo. It's a small location but it's a hidden gem I recommend this if your hungover or to just go eat with family.
Very good ceviche de pescado and aguachiles! Found this place thanks to my brother in law.
Hidden gem. You want to cure your cruda? Order camarones a la diabla that are served with pepinos, limones, and cebolla. Get a side of frijoles to put on their fresh made tortilla chips and enjoy the entire meal. Bye cruda!
A quaint hole in the wall. The shrimp is delicious, the chips and salsa are awesome. I recommend the cucarachas (shrimp) peeled, half al mojo de ajo (garlic butter) half a la diabla (spicy as fuck). It might seem pricy at $20 for the plate, but it's well worth it!! FYI, cash only. If not you have to run accesos the street to get cash, and pay 2829838292939 dollar fee.
