| - Insanely delicious. I don't know how else to describe my dinner there. My husband and I were in Phoenix for a long weekend and wanted some good Mexican food. (Thank you, fellow Yelpers, for pointing me towards Mariscos Playa Hermosa.)
This adorable little restaurant looks like absolutely nothing from the outside- just a plain looking building with a sign. The inside, though, is cute and definitely has an authentic Mexican feel. Upon entering the restaurant, we were warmly greeted and seated. Within a few minutes, we were offered beers and tortilla chips. We opted for guacamole to compliment our tortillas, the former of which I was suspicious at first because of the seemingly runny consistency. Boy, was I wrong - the guac was tangy and full of flavor. I would love to have their recipe!
Based on other review, we opted for the molcajete for our main curse. It. Was. Off. The. Hook. It arrived in a medium-sized, deep bowl, filled half-way with a delicious spicy cheesy gray. Along the sides of the bowl are shrimp, chicken, beef and scallops. We just kind of pushed all the meats into the sauce and then dug in. And while this dish is meant to serve up to 4 persons, we totally killed it and finished every bite. (Disclaimer: I'm a small person and really don't eat that much.... The molcajete was JUST THAT GOOD.)
The next time I'm in Phoenix, I'll make sure to return to Mariscos!
