Food (5/5): Incredible Mariscos in my opinion. I had the camarones en agua chile and girl, get a napkin and a big glass of water because it was SPICY! My mouth was on literal fire but I absolutely loved it lol. The shrimp came through with a strong lime flavor and while the spiciness of the sauce was a lot, I couldn't stop eating it! I appreciate the quantity was large too. Price (4/5): $21.99 for an appetizer, d@mn! My friend told me this place was on the more expensive side and I believe it. Ambiance (5/5): If you're a sport-lover who loves seafood and drinks, this is best place for you! Service (5/5): FYI, the parking is a little tight for this place. We came on a non-busy time and our server was really attentive. I appreciated how many times she passed by to give me water because again, my mouth was on fire and I drank like at least 5 cups.

# 148 Review for 2024 5 Stars***** Food 5 Stars ***** Service ¡Este lugar es una experiencia culinaria mexicana gourmet en su máximo esplendor! The ambiance exudes authenticity, and the flavors are a testament to the chef's expertise. La Coctel Campechana es simplemente deliciosa. Los camarones son enormes y el pulpo está cocido a la perfección. The sauce in the cocktail is a symphony of flavors that dance on your palate, leaving you craving for more. The Tostado de Camarones is a flavor explosion! Cada bocado está lleno de camarones jugosos y el pulpo tierno. It's like a fiesta in your mouth! Para beber, la Michelada con Ceviche de Camarones es una combinación celestial. Beer and shrimp? Who would've thought! Pero aquí, it works like magic. 5 estrellas sin duda alguna. I can't wait to return and indulge in more of their exquisite dishes. Mariscos el Masatleco has captured my heart and taste buds. ¡Volveré pronto!

Yes it's a sports bar. Yes they're blaring loud music. You'll feel reverberations everywhere. But none of the reverberations I felt here are quite as loud as the stellar Mexican seafood and the service Jessica gave was bar-none, the best I've experienced in a while. The portions are really eye-popping large - and delicious and fresh to boot. The shrimp empanada were the fried corn type, and with more filling than I expected, in a good way - with shrimp and cheese. The ostiones preparados (prepared oysters) are really tasty and brought me back to the beach days in Latin America. I had the shrimp ceviche version that is laid on top of the oysters. The shrimp ceviche in a molcajete (mortar) had a more smokey flavor profile and was delicious also, paired with the tostadas (fried corn tortillas). The margaritas were all great too - each with different ingredients and names - I in particularly loved the mango version titled the mango paradise. The Paloma version was also good if you are looking for something not as sweet. Overall, this was a great find, and one I wouldn't hesitate returning to for Mexican seafood.
