I was craving aguachile after having it a few months ago in San Diego. I found this truck after some googling, and the aguachile here didn't quite hit the mark for me, but that's ok.There's a small parking lot adjacent to the seating area, behind the white food truck. There are two of them, one white and one blue. This is honestly probably the nicest food truck set up I've seen in Austin. Dedicated parking lot and structured covered seating. They played music really loudly. We didn't mind the music, but we minded the volume. We thought it could've been turned down a few steps. Food was served quickly after ordering. Service was good!We ordered a full order of aguachile camaron y callo (shrimp and scallops), rojo. That was a mistake lol we should've done verde. I normally like spicy food, but this was so spicy for me that if there were any other flavors, the spice covered it all. I'm actually not sure if there was anything else beyond the sour and spice, though. I was expecting more flavor, like what we'd had in San Diego, but that's not what we got. And after five or so bites, I couldn't taste anything other than spice.The ceviche was good, but I think it had too many onions and tomatoes. There didn't seem to be a balance between the ratio of ingredients.My bf got the baja taco with fish, and he said it was good. Hot, but good. I didn't try it, but I'm taking his word for it since he didnt have any criticism for it.If I'm ever down south again and craving aguachile, I might give this place another chance and order something different.

I recently dined at El Marisquero Seafood and tried the Red Snapper, Fish Taco, and Shrimp Quesadilla. The food was excellent - each dish was flavorful and fresh, with a lot of attention to quality. The Fish Taco and Shrimp Quesadilla were packed with delicious, perfectly cooked seafood, and the flavors really stood out. There's also a nice outdoor seating area with a great selection of sauces to try, which added to the experience.However, if you're ordering the Red Snapper, be prepared for a bit of a wait, as they make everything fresh to order. One downside was that there were no restrooms available, and the bottle opener for my Topo Chico was covered in ants, which was a bit off-putting. Overall, it's a fantastic spot for seafood lovers who appreciate fresh, authentic flavors, but a few minor details could use improvement!

Food truck with diverse fish options. The tacos are $6 each and they are substantial. Homemade pico de gallo, slaw, and sauce. There's an array of hot sauces available to spice up your experience, too. The ceviche is the star of the show. We enjoyed it immensely. For $20, it was enough to feed both of us.Service was solid. It's a food truck, so don't expect a lot from an ambiance perspective, but I sure did appreciate their sun shade and multiple fans running while we were there!El Marisquero, go check it out!

Obsessed! As a native Floridian, I absolutely love fresh seafood and have missed it so much since moving to Austin. The food at El Marisquero is not only the highest quality, but most delicious seafood I've had in Texas. These people know what they're doing! And out of a food truck?! Just trust it. I've tried their fish tacos, shrimp tacos, tostadas and ceviche. Every thing I've tried has been incredibly impressive and leaves me wanting to try more. The team is also super friendly and seem like great people to support. I love watching this business thrive!

As a native San Diegan I'm always on the lookout for So Cal style Mexican food as well as good seafood, both of which can be tough to find. Hence my pleasure at finding this place, through all of your recommendations!My main craving at the time was fish tacos, so I got two, which ended up being a ton of (delicious) food. The fried bread fish portions are very generous, to say the least! And it's proper white fish, not Mahi Mahi which you often find in these parts.And the ceviche tasted great as well and is also highly recommended. And prices were very reasonable. One thing to keep in mind is it IS a food truck, though covered seating is available.

I love Baja Fish Tacos (BFT's) like the ones I ate in San Diego for many years. I have found the local Austin versions of BFT's to be lacking in taste and substance but this place has fresh, tasty and fulfilling BFT's and I since it specializes in Mex seafood offerings I suspect there's more goodness left to discover.The Tacos were cooked to order, the tender and lightly breaded whitefish portion was tasty and easily double the size I've found in other local fish tacos. The fresh Pico was delicious and generous and the crema tied it all together so well. Seriously, these are excellent BFT's and are well worth seeking out.One of the workers must have noticed my walking cane so he made a point of bringing my order out to me, a lovely courtesy. I wish these folks all the best, they're doing good work and putting other, more renown taco purveyors to shame.

I absolutely love this food truck. The seafood is really fresh and the flavors are bold and delicious. I highly recommend the Tres Amigos Ceviche and the Green Aguachile. Be prepared for some heat though.

Cave here for the first time based on reviews I had read. The reviews weren't lying. I ordered the aguachile with black sauce. Whoa, you better be ready for some heat with the black sauce. There is a green sauce but I haven't tried it yet. I also got a governor and a Baja fish. All 3 orders were massive. I split each one into either 2 tacos or 2 tostadas. I'll definitely be going back to this place
