Mariscos La Costa

The food is good .Service is good too This place been here for years really good price on the food.The ambiance is great location a lot of open space which makes it better

La Costa used to be one of my go-to growing up in SJ. Skip the burritos. Burritos are nothing like how they used to be. Burritos were soggy, lacked structure, and low-key skimpy. No flavor at all!I recommend getting the ceviche or cocktails here. And taking it to-go since the tables are dirty.

this place was one of my go-to's a while back for their fish tacos so i was so disappointed coming back recently and seeing they no longer offer these! it used to be cash only but they are now with the times so you can pay with cardeverything is priced really well and portions are a decent size. there's only outdoor seating and they prepare the food quite quickly. huge parking lot as well!

I was upset when I got my Aguachiles because the way they make them here is not my style at all, the shrimp is not cook in lemon. I send my husband to nicely show them my food and honestly I wasn't going to keep eating it. A nice men came out from the kitchen and offer us another one but with cook shrimp, he give us different options and I think that's very nice of him In making sure we happy with our food. I was not convinced at first but I say yes. Just because of this reason I'm giving them a better start rate. My food was better and I got a tostada mix and it was good too. They have no alcohol but it's ok. I normally like to eat Mariscos with a beer.

$15 for 5 tacos wasn't bad at all. Both the asada & pollo were so good. Fresh, lots of meat, lots of flavor. They didn't skimp at all. Not chewy or fatty like some places. They were cooked perfectly.

This is the spot for good portions and good pricing. Customers service always consistent since day 1. Keep up the good work La Costa

*** Update May 2024 ***Just wanted to check in and give shut-out to this place again. Still much cheaper than other taco places (less than $10 burrito, less than $3 taco), still generous with the amount of meat on the tacos and in the burritos and quesadillas, still use tasty sauces that don't give me headache.And to be a little more consistent with my other reviews,Tipping Practice: Awesome, None !!!

They skimp you on the meat worse than Chipotle! If you order extra meat they will nod their heads and say okay and charge $3 extra dollars for you. Then you are surprised with extra Rice and Extra Beans to hide the fact that they be scamming people. Should have just gotten tacos maybe?

Walk up, place your food and you'll be eating within minutes. These guys are quick! This is an outdoor seating area only. Weather you are ordering tacos, burritos, ceviche or anything else on the menu you won't be disappointed. Leave your cash in the bank, they now take cards! Tap away and eat on.

Delicious food, great price and fast service! Super friendly staff. They already know me and my usual order haha. This is the king of fast Mexican food! Sunday's they have one of the best menudos I've tried! It's always clean too! Staff is able to keep up with the cleanliness :)
