I was looking for a place to watch the World Cup Finals & found this place on 3rd Ave Chula Vista. Lots of seating including outdoor area. They opened early for the finals but usually 8AM. They have many beer options & a breakfast menu on Sat & Sun. I had a nice omelette w beans & rice sides & delicious coffee (cafe de la olla). I need to come back for seafood options & taco Tuesday. Parking free in Sun, otherwise feed the meters. Great place 4 sporting events!

It’s my first time here. I’ve been wanting to come for a while since the place looks nice. So finally, I tried 3 different types of tacos to see which one was good. I tried the fish, birria, and gobernador. They’re TERRIBLE. All 3. Fish was super dry and event burnt. The birria tacos barely had ANY meet and gobernador was… I don’t even know what that was… never coming back and not recommend it to anyone. The tortillas were super stiff and it seems like other reviewers had the same experience with that. Per the other reviews it seems the bar and drinks may be good. But food is not even eatable food. Very DISAPPOINTED especially for being in the heart of downtown Chula Vista. Sadly, I had the food to go and ate it at home. If I were dining there I would have returned it and asked for a refund. By the way there was a hair in my gobernador taco… but I guess that can happen at any restaurant.

I was kind a disappointed with the service and the food wasn’t that good. The only reason I give it 3 stars was because the michelada was really good, they had a neat salsa bar for you to get what you needed for your food and the place was kind a nice. The ceviche has too much clamato or tomato paste. You really couldn’t taste the seafood or the broth of the seafood. The tostada mixta was a little better tasting than the shrimp ceviche. I also had 2 tacos de vapor that was disappointing. Very little meat. The taco de pescado was not so good. The breading around the fish meat was thin and not much flavor. Usually the fried breading around the fish is thick and has a lot of flavor. The place is a cool place to sit and hangout with not so loud music. The food was not so good and the service could of been better. Also the server got our order wrong and still charged us full price when it was her fault. I hope next time I decide to come in that they check on me if I need more water, beer, or napkins. First time I feel I have given 3 stars.

DISAPPOINTED with the quality. The tortillas were stiff. Their fish tacos were dry (no side sauce was provided) their loaded Governador potato was more like 3 small potatoes in a plate and three pieces of shrimp. The only good thing was the grilled veggies. No sauce, No line, was offered or provided. The Campechana cocktail was so cheap looking and tasted kind of salty. I thought they went under new management and improved their quality in food, but it’s all bad. I support local business’s, but I do not plan on spending my money here if they continue with this choice of service.

Had the 3 potatoes with shrimp different styles. Fresh salsas and chips while you wait for the order. The patio area is comfy. Pet friendly big plus guys. Staf was friendly and helpful. If you don’t want to pay for a $5 taco couple doors down than this is perfect. Good food and reasonable pricing. Chula Vista Village great for casual dining and not breaking the wallet. Definitely recommend Mariscos Los Cuates

Got the horchata and mango agua Fresca was both pretty good wish you got one free refill though. Also wish the chips was hot and got a bigger bowl of salsa not a small plastic to go container. Beside that the rockas was good the 3 seas taco, the governator, surf & turf, Perron all bomb .

Very good food i had a taco perron didn’t expect it to be so delicious. I liked that they also have a kids menu my son enjoyed the birria tacos , there was a wait time of about 15 min because the place is kinda small but it was totally worth ,price wise very affordable I paid about $65 for 3 people I take one start off for service not because it’s bad but because I think they need more personal serving tables Overall I will come back to this restaurants I totally recommend it

Birria tacos are amazing, especially the quesabirria so much flavor. Shrimp ceviche is delicious, and the adobada tacos are amazing. It is a nice hidden gem for downtown chula vista.
