    It's been awhile since me and my husband have been here, We ordered our food got our drinks it very quickly Took about 25 minutes to get our food my husband ordered the shrimp cocktail, I ordered the octopus and garlic butter the shrimp cocktail shrimp were overcooked soggy and had no flavor, My octopus plate was very tough the rice was cold beans were cold and the potatoes that came with it were also cold not satisfied with today's dinner, overall I will never come here and eat again.

    El Sinaloa is one of the best places to get mariscos in the valley. I have to warn you though that the place is very loud. There will be loud music and even louder people. I love it!

    Went to Restaurant Sinaloa with my wife today. Usually this is the kind of place we would drive right past and not pay attention to. We did this many times for this restaurant. Well today we went to this place for dinner. My wife ordered the arroz marinero (seafood rice). I ordered the coconut shell cocktail of shrimp, oysters, and octopus. Both were very good. My wife and I were impressed. We will definitely return here. Do not let the outside of the building or the neighborhood put you off. This is a place that we want to do well and stay in business.

    One must overcome the look of the neighborhood and it's neighbor "soup kitchen". I used to volunteer at this "soup kitchen" and the street people are not a danger to this neighborhood. The restaurant is a large and open room with about 10 booths and 20 tables, an aquarium and loud loud Mexican music! Did I mention it is loud? Five or six waitresses, friendly, helpful and patient rush about serving the quests. A Friday early evening, my wife and I were the only non latinos in the place. The food was as beautiful as it was excellent. We ordered shrimp quesadillas (9.99) and a deep fried whole red snapper in garlic sauce (13.99) both excellent. The portions were huge!! The snapper was 12 to 14 inches long! I have taken off one star for the overly loud music. The bathroom and restaurant were clean and service was good. We will surely return! Perhaps with ear plugs :)

    I will stick to Don Camarones, this place was decent, the service was good but the pulpa was overdone and too chewy and the shrimp was too fishy, like it wasn't even close to fresh. HOWEVER, the yellow peppers wrapped in bacon and doused in soy sauce were the shit! The Michelada was warm and basically all clamato. So, it's your basic Camarones dive. Probably won't go back, and I don't like saying this at all bc the service was good for sure.

    Me and my family go here all the time. It is authentic Mexican Seafood for sure. I've had several different items and all are great. Sometimes the service is a little slow (depends on which waitress you get and how busy they are) but the food makes up for it. Don't worry about not speaking english, go enjoy and you won't regret it. Yes the music is loud and it's always super crowded on Friday and Saturday nights. If your not from this part of Mesa yes you would think the neighborhood bad but we have never had a problem. Again the food makes up for it all!

    Completely love this restaurant. The seafood is absolutely wonderful. It's fairly big inside and get packed full of people. The service is friendly and the environment is lively with vibrant Mexican music.

    Our absolute favorite seafood place, hands down. Fresh. Good portions. Ranchera playing. As authentic as it gets. Do not let the location fool you. Seafood is my thing. I love it endlessly. When it comes to the seafood, I have yet to find a boring dish. I order the mojarra frita or al mojo de ajo (-whole- tilapia fried or slathered in crushed garlic), though I usually favor the huachinango (whole red snapper) because when it comes to the bones it is naturally easier to eat. No fault of the restaurant. Note: When I say whole, I mean the whole thing. Head, fins, tail~ gutted and de-scaled of course. Delicious! Never ever forget the corn tortillas and lime wedges! I also order the osteones especiales...special oysters. They come raw with scallop, shrimp, jalapeno, and avocado in each half shell, marinated in lime juice and topped with red onion. I love these so much, I can finish at least a dozen by myself. The ceviche is amazing as well. I treated my parents to these when they came to visit from California and my father said that his favorite place of 10+ years for mojarra in Cali did could not compare at all to Restaurant Sinaloa. Sorry, dad! This is a definite must when they visit now. Service was shaky at our last visit as the waitress was not as attentive as I would have preferred, but that's okay. I still left severely satisfied with a large horchata to-go. We have been coming here for years and I will return over and over.

    My mother and I came here for lunch. When we walked in there were only 2 tables with parties of about 6 or 8 and 2 tables of 2. Seemed like that they had already been served their meal. It took a long time for us to receive our meal. While we were waiting the restaurant filled up. A couple of times we waited quite a while for our iced teas to be refilled. I ordered the Molcajetes. My octopus was charred. I had a bite but it made me gag. However, I did like everything else that was served in the bowl. Just make sure you have something cold to drink because it is very spicy hot. The refried beans were excellent. Not sure if we will come back. Average experience.

    Tostada de ceviche and coctel de camaron are both great. Service was very fast and they brought more chips without asking, which was great. Definitively coming back!

    The service is horrible!!!! The waitress acted like she didn't care for our business and made the entire experience horrible!! It was like it was a bother to her if we asked for anything! I am normally a really chill person since I used to be a waitress but this was terrible! The food is good but I wouldn't go back just because of the service!!!

    "This place is scratching an itch that I didn't even know I had!" Those were my first words when our food came out. This is a restaurant specializing in mariscos, which is something that you're probably not overly familiar with. Too many people think of Mexican food as just tacos and burritos, but you truly owe it to yourself to experience the amazing meals that you can have at a restaurant like this. We ordered three things- Molcajete Barbaroja, Fried whole fish, and Oysters on the half shell. Also a glass of horchata, and some water. So there ya go. The Molcajete was amazing. I had NO idea how much I had been craving a dish like this, but now I have a new favorite. The octopus was grilled PERFECTLY, with just a hint of char and an amazingly soft-yet-chewy texture. It's one of those things that you just can't really describe- you just have to have it and fall in love with it. A piece of skirt steak was also in the mix, and it was just incredible. You pull it apart with your fingers, sop it with a tortilla, hit it with a squeeze of lime and hot sauce, then you're all set. The fried fish was fried perfectly, which isn't as easy as it sounds. It's common with these sorts of dishes to overcook them, even with good intentions. This fish was perfectly juicy on the inside and crisp on the outside. The meat was delicious, and the beans and rice which came with it were amazing. It's remarkable how good beans and rice can actually be, but it also sort of sucks because you know that once you have the really good stuff, you won't be able to go back to the bootleg shit that you grew up eating. And now, a word about the oysters on the half-shell. This is another case in which Mexican cuisine FAR outstrips what we poor gringos are used to (see Shrimp Cocktail as well). Their version of oysters on the half shell involves slices of raw shrimp, scallops, red onions, and fresh avocados. It's basically a mini-ceviche on an oyster shell, and once you've had it you won't be able to go back to oysters with watery cocktail sauce and horseradish. In short, this place is a jewel. The menu is all in Spanish with a little bit of English, but there are more than enough pictures to give you an idea of what you might like to order. People have remarked about this being in a 'sketchy' area, but that's just the price that you pay for authentic food. I wouldn't recommend walking five blocks south, but unless you're up to no good you wouldn't have any reason to do that anyways. :)

    You can always tell a good restaurant by the crowds the place draws. And there is always a crowd here all the way until closing time!

    This is one of my favorite Mexican food restaurant, I just love this place. I love their breaded fish tacos combination, it's to die for, I seriously love it. My husband and I almost always get the same thing, it is just delicious. Their Carne ASAda burritos, nachos, enchiladas, and quesadillas are really good too.

    If you like authentic mexican seafood - than this is the place. The seafood tastes fresh, I haven't had anything I did not like. The food is really good, definitely a place I recommend. However, the area is questionable - I've never had an issue, but you do get an uneasy feeling. Also, the service is not great, this might be because the place is always so busy - it seems like your waiter/waitress is running all over the place. Definitely be prepared to wait for a table on the weekends, sometimes for 30 minutes +

    I searched on Yelp for Seafood and this place came up with great reviews so we decided to try it. Besides, I love Mexican and my husband loves Seafood so we were excited to try it and get the best of both worlds. I wish I had the opportunity to review their food, but we never received what we ordered. Their service is HORRIBLE. My hubby and I went here on a Saturday night and yes, the place was crowded. But when you see others arriving later than you and getting their orders before you = not right! I ordered a simple taco and enchilada and my better half ordered the fried, whole tilapia. We waited over 45 minutes and yet nothing came. And the waitress only came by once during this time to ask us my husband if he wanted another beer. No, we want our FOOD! Completely ridiculous! Now, I'm not one to play the prejudice card but I can't help but wonder if this was because we were practically the only non-hispanic people in the place. Since the waitress never came by again, we had to go up to the counter and ask for our check to pay for the drinks and leave. They even tried to charge us for the entire meal we didn't even get and were surprised that we refused to pay for it! What?!?! They never commented at all why our food never came out. If you are not hispanic, save yourself from bad service and stay clear away from this place.

    I'm not a fan of sea food, but this place is a must. I call it "the best spot to recover from a hang over", no kidding. This was my 3rd time and I was as pleased as the last 2. Try the toritos (peppers filled with shrimp and wrapped in bacon, on a soy-like sauce). Three of those plus a "michelada" (beer with lime juice, clamato and salt) and you'll be better than with an IV. You can also try the shrimp broth, it takes you back from the grave (the booze grave). The shrimp cocktail is great, with fresh cucumber. Pour some lime juice and ask for ketchup and you'll be thrilled. My brother had the shrimp wrapped in bacon, there were pretty good. The service was pretty good and friendly. Actually I went there with a friend who has several restaurants and restaurant experience and he pointed out that the service was better than average. One note. If you're white supremasist, a mexican hater, kkk, confederated, Arpaio lover and so on, this might not be your place. Most of the patrons are hispanic and also all the waitresses. I almost forgot it, they play "banda" music which I find hideous but the food worth the music pain, specially if you're hung over. This is as close as you can get to the real mexican seafood restaurant that could be found in Cancun, Puerto Vallarta, Ixtapa, etc.

    Seafood rocked! Good portions, service, and fast delivery. If loud music is not your thing, you won't like this place. I found it fun and mood lifting.

    I've been to this restaurant numerous times and I strongly recommend it! I love the ceviche and shrimp cocktails, both are absolutely EXCELLENT! If you are looking for a great lunch spot, it's a must!

    If you're not Hispanic or look Hispanic you might turn some heads going into this place. Speaking or at least understanding Spanish would also be a plus as the menu is mostly in Spanish with a little English to help out the Anglos a bit. They have a juke box with Mexican music that was playing very loud , so loud that I was tempted to leave when I first walked in but I'm glad I stayed. Very authentic Mexican food and the portions are huge. Service was fast and friendly even after the waitress found out I don't speak Spanish?

    The food was delicious and I'm from Sinaloa Mexico! I would add more stars but the service was not too good. It does help if you know a bit of Spanish but the menu does come in English. The shrimp ceviche is awesome and one tostada can be shared. The fish filet in garlic sauce is huge and really tasty.

    Sorry about the length but thought all was pertinent for an accurate review. GREAT FRESH MEXICAN SEAFOOD!! We got a tip from my husbands coworker to try this place out. We went the same day because we were very excited to try some fresh seafood. It is in a location that could make some get a little uneasy... I will explain. We walked in & immediately saw that EVERYONE had a large abundance of shrimp on their plates in all different styles. One of the waitresses signaled for us to find a seat. They brought chips & salsa as soon as we sat down. We started off with drinks... my husband had the margarita which was large & tasty, and I had a pina colada which was good. When we looked over the menu we wanted to order everything! They had pictures & it all looked delicious! He ordered a fish plate with rice & salad. It was a large piece of flounder covered with a cream sauce filled with shrimp & octopus... Wow! Very good! I decided on the shrimp salad with avocado. I have this thing with wanting my salads chopped for easier eating & I was happy to see it came chopped!! except the shrimp of course - those were whole, fresh & cooked perfectly. It had what seemed like an endless amount of avocado - impressive! I also got a fish taco a la carte - it was deep fried (all right by me) and then they give you your own squeeze bottles full of sauces to top it off yourself which I thought was ideal. It was all great! Did I mention our food came out lightening fast? It was only a matter of minutes- less than 5 for sure! I don't want to sugar coat the atmosphere... there was a guy who came in to get some relief from the hot concrete he apparently called home. There was a nice patron who bought him a beer & maybe some food - didn't stick around long enough to see that- but that patrons brother got up to stop him because he said the restaurant didn't want him there! It caused a minor scene, but the brother did not win... the guy sat drinking his cold beer - that made us feel good to know there were good people willing to step out & do a good deed!! The situation didn't really bother us at all. Then there was a young (young!) boy who came in that was peddling for money & who you could tell was sadly hooked on serious drugs. He did score a small donation before he was asked to leave & did so without incident. My husband wanted to kidnap him & get him some help because he was very young & it was a hard truth to ignore, but we ended up just hoping the best for him. Very sad. Bottom line- those were minor occurrences in a room full of ordinary people. That is my story about my trip to Restaurant Sinaloa! All in all, we left there saying we can't wait to return!!! This place is about food & if you can overlook the location & some peoples battle with life, it is a must try!

    ok, the area was a little scary, but I heard the food was good. Well, it was authentic mexico, and not in a good way. The service was poor and some of the food came out wrong and they did not care. The food mosty tasted good... The place needed a good cleaning as well. Found much better places to be for this type of food here in Mesa...places where they actually care about the customer! I think one of the best palces used to be one of these, but sold and cleaned up....I go there...

    This is one of my new favorite restaurants! We went last night and had an amazing meal with friends. It's so authentic that you will want to bring a friend who speaks spanish along with you. But you can get by with only english and so don't let that stop you from going. The atmosphere is kinda divey, but still pleasant. Beautiful, colorful murals on the walls and loud mexican music. There were mexican soap operas playing on the TVs....not what I wanted to watch, but I am not their avg client! I had the fillete de chef and it was PHENOMENAL! baked fish (flounder? it was so buttery and smooth) topped with octupus (perfectly cooked) and shrimp (slightly tough) in a wonderful, light-tasting cream sauce with bacon in it. Wow, I just loved it. Had leftovers for lunch today and it was great. My husband had the shrimp bacanora (sp?) and it was divine. A wonderful cream sauce with Bacanora (an agave liquor). Highly recommended. My other friends had shrimp in green chile cream sauce (excellent!) and a whole, deep-friend red snapper that was good but a little on the dry side. For appetizers we had ceviche tostada (excellent!) and the little peppers stuffed with shrimp and wrapped in bacon and bathed in a salty soy sauce (very good!!). I highly recommend this place. I can't wait to go back! Amanda

Mexican Cuisine

If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.

Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.

Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.
