Mariscos El Pacifico

I've only eaten here twice but it is one of the most authentic Mexican restaurants in town. Period. If it's too loud because the live band is killing it with authentic Mexican music, this is not the place for you. The food was fuego! Had tacos and a shrimp cocktail. This whole place is a vibe. Hidden gem for sure.

This place is fantastic! I got an el Pastor Torta. My first time trying this dish. It was huge and delicious. Ernie loved his California burrito. The Waitress was wonderful as well. We came here by accident, but the place looked inviting, so we decided to stay. If you want the "real deal", Come here.

Excellent service!!!! I had the freshest seafood ever. The food is unique and a wonderful addition to Jacksonville. Oysters were fantastic!

That sizzle! The Molcajete Caliente is fantastico. Everything you can want all in one bowl: fish, shrimp, steak chicken, octopus queso fresco all served in a yummy red sauce. And if that's not your thing then try the chori chicken. Grilled chicken topped the uber flavorful chorizo and cheese sauce served with the tastiest refried beans, rice, salad and tortillas to make your own tacos.

Hip, hip hooray! Finally, a decent eatery to occupy the spot that has been vacated by many. The way the drinks and food are banging, I know they're here to stay!

The kind of place where everything is in Spanish first. We had a ton of ceviche!! The food was really good. The ceviche almost as good as the kind we had poolside in Mexico. At one point the music got so loud I almost had to go stand outside. Loud atmosphere. Staff were friendly and we really enjoyed the food.

Totally not recommended. Starting with the chips and salsa, which all "Mexican" restaurants are known for, this place managed to ruin this as well. The chips were so cold and just taste like old oil or grease, just awful. I asked for the aguachile and that wasn't even spicy as it should to honor its namesake. The only good thing I can think of was that the beer was cold. The music they play is so loud that it is annoying and the floors look dirty, might just be the dark brown color which looks terrible and I would not recommend for any restaurant. This place was so much better when it was on the southside.

Probably one of the best salsas I've had in the last year. It has a kick after which makes it perfect!

The food was delicious. Had the camarones aguachiles and Tostada Pacifico. The tostada had a good amount of seafood on it and was not mostly veggies like other places. The camarones aguachiles were the bomb, there was actually shrimp on the plate and not just a bunch of onions and cucumber.

These guys never disappoint!!! I can't get over how amazing their food is. From the salsas and dips to AMAZING DISHES! Last trip was chimichangas and sangria's. Though I wish they'd do the squirt tequila margaritas, It doesn't matter. Service food and atmosphere is awesome!
