Mariscos y Birrieria El Prieto

By far the best Mariscos in San Diego County I've had, fresh and very well portioned.I normally get Atún Especial and Aguachile de Callo. Very easy to get to, employees are very nice and it's very cheap considering the amount of food you get.

Hands down the best Mariscos I've ever had. So much flavor packed into each bite as it bursts into your mouth. High quality ingredients. Delicious taste. Worth every penny. This hidden gem has two food trucks that focuses on Mexican seafood dishes and birria tacos. They have pretty much everything else you can think of when it comes to Hispanic cuisine. I went to visit San Diego with friends and we came here twice as it beat every other option we chose in comparison. With each visit, it was packed to the brim with people all excited to try the food. Service was fast and efficient. Had an awesome side self serve with sauces, limes and radishes. Very summer-esque.This place is a must visit if you are in the Chula Vista area in San Diego! Insane spot.

Seriously the best mariscos I've ever had- such a hidden gem!! This spot consists of two food trucks, one serving meat and one serving seafood. You can order from both menus; and food will be called out from the corresponding truck. The second we placed our order, the food was practically out. Super fast. We were visiting friends in San Diego, and my bestie said this is the best spot for great seafood. She was spot on. We came twice during our 4 day trip because it was that good. They also offered this tomato based self served soup which was such a great bonus. Ambiance was fun. There's a tent connecting the two trucks which offer shade and protection. They had standing tables as well, and provided plenty of self serve toppings. Food was so good I forgot to take pics both times I went. 10/10

This is a mariscos food truck so do nog expect a typical sit down restaurant. Although they do have tables where you can eat while standing if needed, it was so packed considering it is a holiday I just ate in my car. I ordered tacos de camarón y pescado both batter fried and they were delicious. Only thing was my tortilla was a bit cold which made the tortilla a little hard. This is also the reasoning as to why I'm giving the place a 4/5. My brother ordered the shrimp quesadilla which was a huge portion, delicious, and filled with grilled shrimp! Don't forget to ask for a caldo de Camarón on the side filled with flavor I added limon as well as hot sauce and dipped my tacos in itOverall food was amazing, if seafood isn't your jam they have carnivore options as well (: as it is a 2 in 1 joint food truck spot. They have options of your typical tacos as well as birria.

Wow, what a gem of a food truck! Located in a strip mall full of auto shops, you wouldn't be able to miss them! There's not alot of parking but what's nice is that a few spots had signs indicating they were for Mariscos customers. I only tried the seafood truck this time but would def come back to try the meat one.We ordered the pescado tacos and they were so fresh and delicious, as well as perfectly fried. I got two but wanted to eat even more. LolTheir toppings were plenty but not so much that everything spills out. They have a few standing tables as well as hot sauce.

Fresh seafood tacos and flavor-packed ceviche are a must-try for anyone looking to indulge in a delicious, authentic taste of the sea.

Awesome spot for a variety of tacos. They have 3 lunch trucks serving mariscos, tacos varios and asada, adobada and birria. It can get busy so if you want to dine in you might have to wait a bit. I've never waiting more than 10mins. The food comes out nice and hot. I've also ordered to go!

Cool idea but not great. I thought we would show up order our food from one of the 3 food trucks and sit down at any open table to eat or eat in the back of our truck. It wasn't. The seating is reserved and the "hostess" seats you. It just felt very unorganized. I was standing in what seemed like the line to put our name on the list when another couple just bypassed us and got their name on the list. At that point we decided take out (eating in our truck) would be faster. It wasn't. Everyone and then some got seated before we got our food. It took over 40 mins for 1 burrito, 1 tostada, 1 muleta, 2 horchatas. The burrito was al la diabla shrimp. Very average and boring. The tostada was camarón cocido. The shrimp were whole which felt more like a cocktail than a ceviche. The tostada also tasted stale and old. The muleta was the best part. Only complaint is it came with salsa on it and I wasn't told nor did it state in the menu so I couldn't feed it to my 1 year old (which is was for her). Will not be returning.

Leaving san diego with the girls we were looking for some place to eat on a Sunday morning. Food was great. They had a good atmosphere, friendly service. Fast. Family friendly

What a find! I've lived in Chula Vista over 30 years, don't know how long this place has been here but just discovered it. Incredible place. First timer so I ordered the fish tacos. The fish tacos were Absolutely amazing, this is my new fish taco place and it offers a lot more as shown. Place is busy but very organized. I appreciate they have a parking lot attendant to help assist you find a parking spot and directs traffics in and out so no problems created. I like their choices of hot spicy salsas. They have about 7 different types to choose from, all in large squirt bottles on a bed of ice, so they are always fresh and chilled. You basically stand and eat your food at the tall tables. It's cool because you can join others at their table and strike up a conversation with a complete stranger. I like that . I can't wait to go back and try everything on the menu.
