    This used to be our go to Restuarant. The servers are nice people and that I would say is about it. The food is a mediocre quality, the menu has become very limited and the prices have gone up considerably. What used to be well run and managed by the owner is no longer. Very sad.

    This was our first time at the restaurant. Service was amazing - from the moment we walked in to the time we left. Our waitress checked on us regularly, which was refreshing. The owner of the restaurant stopped by to ask how our meal was going - she was so warm and pleasant. The food was good and you get a lot for the price. Same with the cocktails. I will definitely make this a regular place!

    Out experiences at Pescado Borracho are always great. Food is amazing, service was good. Last night the red salsa was especially good and smoky.

    We have been to Pescado Borracho several times over the last year. Food was always good. Last night was a big disappointment. I shared the chicken fajitas with my friend as it was always a large order. It was bland as can be. Our other friend ordered two Taco’s. One was fish & one was pork. They gave him one side for two orders but charged him 10.00 plus 9.00 = $19.00. The pork taco was just a large spoonful of shredded pork with a flour tortilla on top. No lettuce, tomatoes or onions. Lots of the food was loaded with chili powder. Hey guys get your act together. We will give them one more try, and then we will be on way if they don’t change.

    We won’t be coming back. The tacos were over priced, the flavors were either too bland or tasted like a bottle of liquid smoke was dumped on. All of the meat and seafood tasted like it was pre-packaged and pre-cooked. I make better food at home.

    The tacos were not good. Not worth the visit. The queso dip was also very bland and not spicy.
