Da Seafood Cartel

This place is absolutely LEGIT. No frills, no gimmicks - just ridiculously good Mexican seafood that punches you in the face with flavor from the first bite. The kind of spot where you know the food is going to be good before you even sit down. The ceviche was insanely fresh and loaded with flavor. The homemade chips had the perfect crunch, and the BSOD (“Black Sauce of Death”) absolutely lives up to the name in the best possible way. Spicy, smoky, addictive… I’m still thinking about it. Da OG Tostada was probably my favorite bite of the meal. Blue crab spread + ceviche + avocado = game over. Every layer worked perfectly together and somehow disappeared way too fast. And the steak tacos? Straight fire. Tender arrachera, fresh pico, crunchy cabbage, and packed with flavor without trying too hard. Simple and perfect. This is the kind of place you tell your friends about immediately… while secretly hoping it doesn’t get TOO popular.

Their food is really good. It tastes just as if you were in Mexico. However, the time it takes to get it ... I'm sure it they can improve but it shouldn't take +30 minutes for a ceviche. When I asked to cancel my order, the cashier caught attitude. They had not even started on my order and I needed to leave. They didnt cancel my order They just gave me the order of another customer. You can eat inside or outside. If you choose outside be ready for pigeons, flies and chickens to be running around you. Parking is an issue since its very limited. You can park on the other side of the jujitsu studio but you run into the risk of getting towed away.

Love this place - have been there three times over the past four years, and it’s amazing every time. Ceviche itself is great, but ceviche with Mexican flavors is sublime. The beer-battered fish tacos are some of the best I’ve had anywhere. The tostadas are a must try. Really, you can’t go wrong here.
