Take out Tamale elote: this was really good. The flavors were excellent. This meal was very filling Ceviche natural: this was huge. I pretty much ate this as my whole meal. The fish was super fresh and perfectly seasoned Trio fish tacos: this was okay. We would pass on this next time Churros: we noticed the middle was not cooked fully thru. Tres leche: this was okay too but overall I might just pass on the desserts

Ok, I'm from New York and am visiting Houston for the next five weeks. I have traveled all over the world and have had a lot of cuisine. Good and not so good. Houston's food scene is amazing! Honestly, I've been here two weeks already and every single time I've ordered food from a restaurant. The experience has been fantastic! It's kind of mind blowing how amazing the food has been every single time except my second time getting something as simple as black bean soup at this restaurant.The first time I came, I just wanted some thing light for dinner, and I wanted to take it out to go. I wound up ordering the black bean soup and it was the best black bean soup I've ever had. They took so much care in preparing it for me for me to take it to go, they wrapped it in saran, wrapped, they put I believe it was cilantro in the middle of the soups for a nice garnish. I had a huge bag of tortilla chips and two green sauces. I don't know what the sauce is, but it was amazing and it came also with a piece of bread. I honestly could not believe how good that soup was and how good the bread was and how good the chips were and how good that green sauce was! I could not wait to write a review about this place because I was so pleased!!! Cut To: About a week or so later... I was in the neighborhood and decided to stop by and get the soup again to go with my dinner. When I got home and opened the bag, I could not believe how different the presentation was and the amount of soup and chips I had... along with, how different the green sauce was. It's almost like I went to a completely different restaurant and that is, in my opinion, very bad service. The soup is pretty much half the amount I was given the last time. It was barely warm, there was no garnish of cilantro or parsley (I'm not sure what it was the last time), the amount of chips is almost 1/3 of what I received the last time, and the sauce is thicker and spicier and not as tasty. This is ridiculous and extremely disappointing. I was so excited to rave about this place, but inconsistency is disappointing and honestly it makes me not really want to ever go back because I'm not sure of what I'm gonna get, I tasted the soup, it seems fine. I'll have to warm it up. The chips... they're OK. The sauce... I can do without. And the bread... meh. Consistency is key, in my book. I won't be back.

We went here a week or so ago for dinner. Ambiance is relatively modern with lots of colors and a definite seafood/Mexican theme. Service was lacking, in that they reallllyyy took their time to come to our table and take our order... and we were one of maybe four groups there. But the food, or at least the tamal, made up for it.I have never had a tamal that I would rave about as much as this tamal de elote. Seriously if you're not sure what to get just get it, be aware though it's very filling. I probably filled up too much on chips and queso fundido! Those were good too, but not as memorable as the tamal.Margarita was good, too, nothing bad to say about it.Overall my rating is really for the tamal which is a 5. The other items didn't particularly blow me away, but were very good. If you're downtown and looking for Mexican and/or seafood, give them a try!

I first heard about la fisheria from a yelp event yeaaaars ago. We tried their ceviche and it just stuck with me.The first time in the restaurant itself was in May coincidentally during Latin Restaurant Week. We tried waaaay too much stuff but that just meant more to take home! When we first walked in (and I noticed this the 2nd time we came in as well), the check in counter and front area of the restaurant smells off. I think it's the sewage that unfortunately runs all through downtown Houston. Everything else in the restaurant was clean such as the bathroom so I don't think it's their fault but just something I noted. Maybe they could use some extra air fresheners up front to help with it... For food, we ordered the ceviche natural and ostiones a la parrilla to start. The ceviche is nice and fresh, but kind of wished there was more variety in protein aside from just the fish. Then, for entrees we had the pulpo ensenada, tamal de elote con camarones, sonora ribeye, and the pulpo de la parrilla. Out of these entrees, I would say the pulpo ensenada beats out the pulpo de la parrilla with flavor as well as side dishes. I can also say, the star of the show is the tamal de elote con camarones. There's a reason why it won awards, right? I was scared on how heavy it might be since the sauce looked very creamy but it was actually a thinner sauce that faired well with the corn tamale. For dessert, we had flan which was good but pretty much run of the mill flan.One unique thing about La Fisheria, is they have a great rewards program! You get a free app or margarita when you sign up, and after that with each visit there's additional dishes you can get! You could make this your next local HH spot with your gang!

Stopped in for drinks and apps. The restaurant was bright and airy. We had carpaccio de pulpo, pulpo a la Parrilla and chips. Food was fresh and delicious. Bartenders were attentive. This was a great find, a Mexican restaurant that serves seafood.

Had dinner here with some co workers for the first time and it was really great. We arrived around 5:30pm and it wasn't very busy. The inside is nicely decorated and they have a nice bar as well. The food is great. Mainly seafood options but they do have chicken and beef positions as well. I had the empanada trio, and tried some oysters, some ceviche, and a frozen margarita and margarita on the rocks. I liked the margarita on the rocks better. The frozen one was made with a pre-mix that wasn't that great. I really really loves the green salsa, I took a container home. It's super limey so that why I loved it. They did say they will open a patio soon and have live music so I'll have to go back for that. Gerald it was great, the only reason I knocked off a star is for the frozen margarita. It could be much better. The service and food however was really great!

This is one of the best places downtown. You can't go wrong with the Tamal con camarones, or the pulpo. But I've had more and their food is all great. My wife and I really like the crema de frijol too. Such a good place.

I'm not a fish fan and this place won me over. We came for lunch on a Saturday and it was surprisingly not busy, but I bet it gets packed for dinner (or it should!). We had a large party and our waitress was amazing, so friendly and accommodating. The whole staff was really; they made the experience really great on top of the delicious food and drink. I had their strawberry margarita (sweet like I like it) and then had their sweet corn tamales with bacon and shrimp - a dish that was on a famous Houston food dishes list at some point. I can see why - it is super unique and tasty! It is also quite rich, so be prepared to take some home with you or better yet share with someone so you can try more dishes. They also had great desserts - the churros were a hit. Parking - paid lot next door ($20 on weekends, FYI) or street.
