I love this place, when I want authentic Mexican seafood I come here. The shrimp and callo de hacha is super tasty! I haven’t ordered anything from the menu that I haven’t loved. It’s a huge plus that they have TouchTunes so I can eat and enjoy my favorite songs.

What the hell did I stumble into. I was driving around and googled food near me. This place popped up, and I said...whatttttt. sure as hell. Taco truck serving seafood in an industrial park with the dining room in what appears to be an old body shop. Guess Fresno code enforcement is too busy doing other things. So my adventurous self said " what the hell, I'm here" pricey for location but food was OK. But where else can you go and get windows tinted, dent repaired, oil changed and ceviche in 1 stop.

Love the Molcajete with Cayó,. Wish they would just add avocado slices to the bigger, for the price should have a few included. Always have to ask for some after we pick up food. Kids chicken nuggets are a bit overpriced so if you have picky eaters don't take them. They should move their trash cans away from customers entrance or parking lot, the smell of rotten fish almost kills my appetite. Other than that food is great, music always playing nice and loud.
