I came here for dinner on a Friday night. The decor and ambiance were cute. We got here early and were seated right away. The host gave us a card to scan for our menu and then literally 2 minutes after we sat down the server came and asked what we wanted to drink. We barely got a chance to take our jackets off! After he came around the next time we ordered a spicy margarita and a hibiscus margarita. Both were delicious. We order the ceviche trio, which was also good. However, the waiter was relentless in coming by and trying to hurry us up to order, to the point where it was very uncomfortable. After our meal, we were almost finished with our drinks and he asked us to move tables so that he could use our table to accommodate a large party. There was plenty of room on the side and he could have grabbed a different table and scooted us over, which we eventually agreed upon after 5 minutes of discussion. Completely rude! Honestly, the food is good but because of the service and how uncomfortable the server made us feel the entire time during our dinner, I would never return to this restaurant.

3.5 stars rounded up. December 2023: Service was pretty bad- cold welcome and didn't seem like they wanted to seat us (3 people) without a reservation even though their website says reservation needed for 10+ people and there were 2 tables for 4 open. Took a long time to get our bill even though by the time we were done eating, most of the patrons left and it was only my party and another table. The food was good although the portion for the angel hair seafood pasta dish was small for $30. I had the fish taco (one for $6), which was lightly battered and had a mayonnaise based sauce. I thought it was really good but not great or amazing. Their chips and salsa ($6) came with 3 different salsas which were all fantastic.

Pro: Cool decor, good music, mix fare of Mexicana and Spanish foodCon: Parking hell, quick services. Came here with local bay area friends, overall a pleasant meal, good shrimp dishes, steak and oyster was subpar. Bisteck Salteado - steak could use more garlicOysters - tiny little thingsCamarones al Coco - fried perfectly, sauce wasn't that spicyDoraldo a la Brazas - good simple fish dishEnchilada Plate with shrimp - overcooked shrimp, tons of foodArroz con Mariscos - outstanding saffron rice with clams Plato Vegetariano with chicken - nothing specialMichelada - needs more tajin and chamoyCeviche Trio - much better after we asked for a ton much limesGuac and totopos with all salsas - actually pretty good. Not bad.

I noticed they use different tortilla now, not the homemade style but the street taco-style corn tortillas that you can get at the grocery stores. Although I still like the fresh ingredients, the tortilla made it extra special. What a bummer!I wonder if they go gluten-free now with the corn tortilla. If yes, I wish they give us options.

Cute restaurant with good Mexican food. I got recommthe ceviche, guacamole with chips, deep fried squid, and empanadas. Great atmosphere with comfortable seating. Parking is extremely difficult. Street parking only. Price is also on the higher side.

Tacos for lunch. I ordered 1 shrimp, 2 carne asada tacos. The service was efficient and the food came in timely manner and came beautifully served. The shrimp taco was crispy and delicious and somehow I couldn't bring myself to eat the carne asada so I don't know the taste yet. We also ordered guacamole and chips. The guacamole is normal but the spicy salsa came with chips was deliciously spicy. The ambiance is casual and clean. The parking is a challenge since you have to park around the neighborhood, but it's worth the hassle. The price for taco 1-$6, 2-$11, and 3-$15. The guaca $11.

The service was very fast and he was very attentive. I really appreciated that the wait staff was always ready for our next steps and was super attentive to our needs. The ambiance was super cute and I love the decorations. I really loved the Tin Tan, it was super yummy and strong. I loved the mezcal taste, I was pretty buzzed after. The ceviche trio was super flavorful and fresh!!

La Viga Seafood & Cocina Mexicana is hands down the most underrated restaurant in the Bay Area! This place is an absolute gem when it comes to delicious and flavorful food. My boyfriend and I had an incredible dining experience here.Empanadas de Champiñones Tapas - The empanadas were bursting with flavor and had a perfect balance of ingredients. They were not heavy at all and tasted light, making them a fantastic appetizer to kick off our meal.Camarones a la Diabla - This was the true standout of our visit. The shrimp was cooked to perfection, tender and juicy with just the right amount of spice. But what truly took this dish to the next level was the rice with mixed vegetables. The corn in the rice was incredibly sweet and burst in my mouth with every bite. It was almost comparable to Chipotle, but even more elevated and flavorful. Trust me, words don't do this dish justice. It is hands down one of my top three favorite dishes in the Bay Area.If you're in the Bay Area and haven't tried La Viga Seafood & Cocina Mexicana yet, you're truly missing out on a fantastic dining experience. The food is outstanding and the overall experience is one that will leave you wanting to come back for more.

It's definitely not worth the price they are charging for. The presentation is impeccable if you're the type of person to eat with your eyes. Everything lacked salt. The mango agua fresca, I am almost positive that it tasted like a watered down mango juice from Costco... the ceviche trio was $19? Picture for reference, it's a sauce bowl very tiny & everything was falling off. The bistec was the reason why I gave 3 stars and the service/decor. I think if you are going to charge up at least season your food better
