Mariscos El Pilar

Excellent food! The fish and shrimp were delicious, as well as the chorizo and carne asada tacos! Highly recommend.

The cheese y shrimp empanadas are a big size for a mini, and you get 3 for a great price! Not greasy, but fried just right!

Delicious food! The fish burrito is amazing. Feels like you’re on Mexico! Great service. Bottled beer $6, a little steep for this kind of restaurant.

Best Mexican seafood in the area. We drove from Carmel to eat here. Tasty food, great service, homemade chips, cold agua de horchata!

I got me 2 fish tacos and a octopus tostada. Bomb. The fish was breaded and crispy with good seasoning. Octopus was the perfect tenderness tops off with pico and Green salsa; is spicy enough for my tolerance, wonder if it can be a little spicier. They have to-go tapatio packs and even give you some limes. Will come back and try more on the menu. Place is a bit small so I recommend to order ahead.

We ordered the Molcajete a la Pendejada and loved it. It had a variety of seafood; it was spicy and and delicious! Served oven hot in a molcajete.

Love coming here to enjoy on some mariscos with the family. It's family owned and very welcoming. We've made it apart of our weekly outing.

Even in current times they are still welcoming And food is still delicious and fresh. It is a “Mom and Pop” business. My typical order is 2 fish ceviche tostadas, 2 shrimp ceviche tostadas and shrimp battered entree with rice, beans and a salad. Please support your local Restaurants you’re providing hope, support and helping rebuild the business to keep operating. #weareinthistogether

The realest food in Monterey Bay, and definitely the best menudo. White people seeking a "real" Mexican meal should go here, but beware: it's cash only here.

Authentic mexican and south-american food restaurant. The service was friendly and quick. The atmosphere could be a little bit more comfortable. The food was on point (although the fish in the ceviche was cooked and shredded) and the michelada is a great choice!

Small place but if still felt comfortable. Some of the decor did not make scence for the restaurant. The staff was friendly. Service was acceptable. The food was good. I order los camarones (shrip) a la diabla, they were good. Overall the experince was good.

Good quality food for good prices. They have both seafood and meat options.

I do enjoy there food because for me, I enjoy foods thare are more authentic to the culture then anything that is trying to just be a typical dish you can find in non traditional restaurants.

Delicious and authentic food. Very kind staff. I had the asada burrito which was flavorful and prepared to perfection. My friends had the tacos and cleaned their plates. Dino nuggies and fries for the kiddos were a hit as well.

We didn’t really get the chance to try it, mainly because my mom is not fond of seafood and there were not any non-seafood options for anyone that may not like seafood or for those allergic to it! So, unfortunately it was not an option especially for my mom to eat there I know it’s a fish place, yet even other places known of seafood have at least a few reasonable non-seafood options A good thing is that the staff was nice

Overcharged me for wrong order.

Food was very tasty, but got charged $30 for el molcajete. Price was not on the menu. Ask for prices before ordering.
