It's Boyle heights I haven't been there in years, I grew up on Olympic that sears tower holds memories.....Anyways when I ate those tacos I was back home. Food was good, prices are good, seating good, they have a restroom inside. The Poseidon was spicy, flavorful, good portions, and the crispy tacos were on another world. Thank you for the delicious food!

I ordered the fish ceviche tostada & the shrimp ceviche tostada and wow wow wow! They were amazing! The tostadas were packed to the edge with ceviche and so flavorful. Best ceviche of this trip! You should definitely try their salsa as well. Behind the food truck is a dining hall for customers, too.

Must try the tacos de camaron (crispy shrimp taco) - so good, but warning, they are so hot inside! The shrimp ceviche tostada was great too - super fresh and perfectly crispy. Please note the trick is CASH ONLY! At this location in Boyle Heights, there is an inside area with tables to sit and eat as well as restrooms.

Not much to add here. Legendary spot for shrimp tacos and other mexican seafood. There are hundreds of other spots like this but this one is a clear standout and is a must visit for anyone visiting or living in LA. Shrimp tacos are probably the star here but everything is great. My least favorite is probably the fish ceviche, but it actually worked great as a garnish on the tacos. Parking is a bit of an issue. U may take 30 min to drive here but might spend another 30 min looking for parking. Might be good to bring a partner to jump out and get some to go

Looking for your Lent Friday seafood meal? or just some good seafood. Mariscos Jalisco is a great food truck for the crunchy shrimp 🦐 tacos (tacos dorados), ceviche, oysters, and my fav the Poseidon tostada with an assorted seafood mix. Next visit shall be to try the fancy named Ostiones Peinados (combed oysters?) Street parking is hard to find, but worth it when you find one and they have an indoor seating area across the truck or stand/sit outside and eat. Call ahead for a quick pick up or take them to-go like my picture, they pack the delicious toppings separate.
