El Viejon Seafood

We've been to this place 3 times. It takes forever to get the food served. They bring one plate at a time to the table, so you end up eating at different times. The ensenada fish taco was so dark and such a small fish portion. The taste/flavor of the food is really good, but their service, quality, and quantity not so much. Prices are high for what you get.

El Viejón in Otay Ranch has become one of my regular spots for mariscos. The aguachile verde de camarón is the reason I keep going back. Good spice level, fresh shrimp, and adding avocado makes it even better. The service has been fast every time I’ve gone. I’ve also ordered the tacos de carne asada a few times. They’re good and I’d order them again. Not quite Tijuana-style tacos, but still solid. If you go, I definitely recommend the aguachile verde.

Excellent, excellent food!! Honestly, I have no idea what I ordered … haha! I just asked what they recommended, they named a few things, and I said “let’s do all of it.” Best decision ever, everything was amazing! I was a little surprised when the food came out that there was only one of each item though. The price felt a bit high for just one taco, but wow, the flavor totally delivered. They don’t have many drink options outside of alcohol, but honestly, the food more than makes up for it. I’ll definitely be back!

As someone who is always looking for the best fish tacos, their ensenada style fish tacos are a very solid option considering we are all the way out here in otay: get those you won’t be disappointed! Grilled octopus tacos were cooked very well, far better than the pulpo option at Oscar’s- just a tad over-seasoned

For being newly opened, I was quite impressed with the customer service and the overall quality of the food. The menu has many things to offer, in fact it was difficult to narrow down our choices. The highlight of our meal were the smoked tuna fries. They are a 10/10. The french fry is not a shoestring fry, it is a thick fry that holds up well considering all of the toppings. Amazing flavor! The oyster sauce that came with the blue point oysters needs to be bottled up and sold separately- very good! I took off one star because the birria tacos weren’t very good. Unfortunately, they lacked flavor and the meat was dry, even dipping it in the consommé didn’t help much. The time it took to receive our food was an impressive 5 minutes. Presentation of the food is above average. Portion size was appropriate. The restaurant is super small, there’s about 6 booths and 3 tables in the middle. Howe
