their shrimp taco is heavenly. the perfect balance between flavour and crispiness. I will definitely be returning. they’re cash only, make sure to bring cash. 11/10 recommend!

Been wanting to try this spot and wish I'd come sooner! The fried shrimp taco and fish ceviche on tostada were incredible and unique. Also, we were happy to find that they offered indoor seating with bathrooms. Came on a Monday afternoon and there was no line.

Mariscos Jalisco is a hidden culinary gem, offering an unparalleled combination of value and quality. This food truck with the bonus of indoor seating provides a unique, comfortable dining experience. The standout feature here is the extraordinary value—tacos for just $3 each, an offer that feels almost too good to be true, each delivering authentic, mouth-watering flavors. One important note for prospective visitors: Mariscos Jalisco operates on a cash-only basis, although they may take Venmo in a pinch. However, they prefer cash payments, supporting the tradition of local vendors. Paying with cash not only facilitates a smoother transaction but also supports the local business ecosystem more directly. If I were local, I’d likely be a frequent visitor, lured back again and again by the quality of the food and the charm of the setup. For anyone looking for top-notch food at incredibly reasonable prices, Mariscos Jalisco is a must-visit. Don’t forget to bring cash and enjoy the best tacos you’ll find at this price point, all while supporting a great local business.

Delicious, fresh, flavorful mariscos spot! The owner was extremely kind and welcoming as well. I highly recommend if you’re looking for authentic Jalisco style mariscos! We tried the shrimp tacos, (delicious!), the ceviche tostada, and the Poseidon tostada. The Poseidon had a strong spicy kick to it, everything we had was yummy but that one was my favorite of the meal. SO GOOD. Will definitely come here every time I am in LA.

Such a good deal & great quality food We stopped by on a Sunday and waited in line for 10 min, waited for food for 10-15min, took it home and it was fantastic! Hole in the wall place with nowhere to sit at the time we went; some people were eating outside standing up or on the curb outside. What we got: Poseidon (octopus) taco, tacos de camaron (shrimp), tostada Poseidon, ceviche de pescado -- all for ~$26 -- would get the Poseidon tostada and shrimp tacos again! -- ceviche tostada was a good deal but not as much flavor as the Poseidon tostada -- wouldn't recommend doubling up on the Poseidon tostada AND taco: get something else instead! Cash only place. Service was quick and nice. Be ready to wait if you're going on a weekend and be prepared to take it elsewhere to eat! But sooo worth it for the prices

Very fast made to order service. The shrimp tacos (dorados) is a must have when eating here. If you like octopus, make sure to order a shrimp taco with octopus on top. You wont regret it

This has to be the best ceviche I've ever had. They serve it on a food truck and they have some seats by the truck to enjoy your food. Now you're thinking theres no way the food is fresh if its served on a truck. Well the quality and textures here are 5 stars. My friends and I ordered the Tacos de Camaron, Poseidon and Mixta. The octopus and shrimp were cooked perfectly. Not too chewy and the combination of citrus with their house made salsa were perfect. Between the 4 of us this was plenty of food. Prices are reasonable and portions are great. Wait times can be long, but well worth it. Theres a big parking lot across the street and plenty of street parking around the corner. I would recommend eating right away as the food can get soggy.

Best shrimp tacos anywhere. Service was fast. Food was well prepared. Hot food was hot & cold food was at a proper temperature. They have plenty of seating inside a building next to their food truck. The aguachile was so good and spicy. Not too spicy where you won't enjoy the food. Just perfect! 1st time here & it won't be the last either. Parking sucks, but don't let that scare you away.

I've never heard or eaten here before, but after watching a few notable food bloggers (Mark Weins), I just had to try it out Right in front of the truck, there's a sit in building for you to sit down and eat, or out front there's a long sit down area that looks like a bench where you can sit outside if you prefer. The past two weeks I've been coming here for Lent since no meat on Fridays, I've just been getting the Shrimp tacos and the Poseidon and I have to say, it is DELICIOUS. Pipping hot and still crunchy even with all the sauce on top and even that makes it more delicious. For 2.50 a taco and the Poseidon sitting at 10 bucks, it was definitely worth the meal. SHRIMP tasted fresh and the octopus from the Poseidon was just as delicious as the next. Its a nice little spot tucked away in East LA, but making the drive was worth it for the amount I paid for. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area craving some shrimp tacos or oysters (haven't tried it yet but will get to that eventually)

Gotta admit, the seafood's pretty good. Everything tastes fresh. The shrimp taco is probably my favorite

After everyones recommendation about trying this place we decided to travel to East LA from North Hollywood to give it a shot. This place is CASH only, we had to walk down to Chevron to use ATM. We order the famous shrimp tacos and the shrimp ceviche tostada's. The kids liked the tacos more than I did I felt they were too wet don't like the juices getting all over my hands, this was the case with the tostados as well. Overall I was a bit disappointed thought these tacos would be better. They do have a good seating area inside in front of the taco truck with restrooms and about 10 tables. Service was quick also so that's another plus. Coming from Houston Im spoiled with the tacos we have and these tacos were just OK

Everything I tried here is pretty good, but the shrimp tacos are the best thing because they are different from anything else you’ve probably had. Parking can be challenging as it’s only street parking that’s available. A big plus is that they have a relatively large indoor dining area.

Shrimp tacos are pretty solid and decently priced. When it's hot and right out the fryer, it's crispy on the outside and pretty good.
