“We showed up tonight and were extremely impressed!”

We showed up tonight and were extremely impressed!! It was pretty empty but we had amazing service, the food was fresh with large portions. Even the inside was beautiful! The owner (I think) came out and let us know they just opened 5 months ago so come out and welcome them to the neighborhood! They’re open late too ❤️

Manejé dos horas para probar este lugar y me pareció muy bueno. Me encantó el ambiente. El personal fue muy amable y el precio de los mariscos no estuvo mal. Les recomiendo que lo prueben; la sazón es excelente.

“Brand new-ish Mexican restaurant that specializes in seafood.”

Brand new-ish Mexican restaurant that specializes in seafood. Tried both of their ceviches, their seafood cocktail, and shrimp soup. The food is way better than I can describe it. The taste is authentic, the salsa will make you sweat, but the variety of amazing looking food may cause you over order like we did. Our little corner of Irving Park/Albany Park needed something a little different and Mariscos Rio Balsas is definitely it. We were headed to Garcia’s and came here instead. Maybe it’s a new neighborhood favorite.

“Everything was very good and tasted amazing.”

Everything was very good and tasted amazing. The food was very well seasoned and fresh. Guacamole was delicious and portions were very large. You definitely get what you pay for here and it’s comparably affordable when you take into account the prices of places nearby. This place has only been open 2 months and is extremely promising. All of the staff is very kind and attentive.

La comida esta deliciosa, el lugar esta muy bien, la música esta un poco alto el volumen, no se puede platicar muy bien. Pero todo lo demás esta excelente!!!
