Recommendations

"When I get a craving for a spicy shrimp taco, there is no other place that I think of going besides El Mazateño."
"Mariscos el Mazateño has a well-earned reputation as THE spot for the best Sinaloan-style seafood tacos in Tijuana."
"A slightly crisp, slightly chewy, and wholly appealing exterior. The shrimps within the camaron enchilada hailed from Mazatlan and were plentiful and fresh."
"Mariscos El Mazateno was one of the stops on our trip that justifies a repeat visit for a no-holds-barred seafood. The taco camaron enchilado featured a fried, flaky, paratha-like flour tortilla topped with plump grilled shrimp tossed with chile de arbol. The tacos didn’t need any help, but nobody could resist the squeeze bottle of spicy green sauce."
"Where to Eat Tasty Fish Tacos in Tijuana and Ensenada: Mariscos el Mazateño - There's so much shrimp that folding the tortilla and eating it like a traditional taco is challenging."
"Back to the tacos, though, the Super Mazateña is what you see most people eating: an improbably large number of shrimp, swimming in dark red chile sauce, tucked into enormous flour tortillas with quesillo. One's good; two is better."
"Their glistening, fried shrimp taco spiced with chile de arbol and other secret spices is out of this world."
"The Mazateno, including shrimp and chile de arbol, is more successful. The heat accentuates the sweetness of the shrimp, and pickled onions and asadero cheese round out the flavors with acid and richness. It's one that I would order again."
"10 Essential Seafood Tacos in Baja: Mariscos el Mazateño - A fried flour tortilla filled with melted cheese and plump poached shrimp tossed with chile de arbol (called camarones enchiladas). Spoon the addictive green sauce onto your tacos, just like all the blissed-out locals are doing."
"Generous amounts of succulent, plump, spicy shrimp placed on top melted cheese folded in two crisp light tortillas. This honestly is one of my favorite tacos and it will blow your mind."
