I’m always on the lookout for some good Mariscos (seafood). I visited this place when I was on lunch break when I was working in the area and I really enjoyed it! Food was tasty and a good serving size for the price. I ordered the seafood tostadas! They also offer chips and salsa if your order! Give them a try!
The Mexican seafood is amazing at El-7. The restaurant smells good. It has authentic Mexico vibes, and you can tell by the type of customers that eat there that this place is authentic. Their fish and shrimp smelled and tasted very fresh. There were no rancid seafood smells in the restaurant. They provided free chips and cheese. I recommend trying their fish and shrimp plate that comes with salad and white rice(18). Also, I recommend trying their shrimp stuffed chilis(13). I will return to El-7 The only con El-7 has is that they charge you for water. Why give free chips, cheese, and salsa and then charge for water?
Excellent food and excellent customer service despite how busy it was. Everyone was very polite, the food was authentic and delicious, and the portions are well worth the price this picture was just our appetizer! My only suggestion, dont go expecting to eat in a hurry.
Mexican seafood tradition is popular and 7 oceans covers all the popular fresh seafood dishes. You come in grab a menu from the cashier and seat yourself. I only came in to view the menu for keto, but id probably recommend the wrapped fillet or 7 ocean soup, it was busy on a Sunday. Will have occasional mariachis or musicians as well as a music player inside. Here's the pretty menu.
Must order the cucharachas and the siete mares soup. The cucharachas are the very crispy shell-on shrimp. You can eat the whole body and head of the shrimp. It is perfectly crispy. The siete mares soup has so much flavor and comes with generous portions of seafood.
If you love 7 mares, say no more. Get it.
The fried fish was so good. I got a huachinango and my husband got a mojarra al mojo de ajo. The service is really good. When we’re waiting our food our server gave us tortillas chips with salsa and queso dip We ordered a ceviche to go, also the flavor and freshness was great, was delicious. Definitely I recommend it, we’re gonna come back.
Wow this place has great food ..it's fresh and the taste is authentic
