El Barquito Seafood & Tex-Mex

Food was very delicious. Staff was very nice and polite. Would definitely recommend to everyone to at least try once. Can't miss the place it is shaped like a boat.

Was pleasantly surprised by this place. All the food we had was amazing, fajitas were great and good tortillas. My daughter had the shrimp fried rice and I have to say it was some of the best I’ve ever had. Will be back to try all the seafood.

Just found this place about six minutes from my house! Crawfish and service was AMAZING. Will be going back later this week for more. The rest of the menu looked phenomenal as well. Give it a shot!

Great service and excellent food! We will definitely be coming back for more!

It was absolutely amazing!! I would definitely recommend and come back to this restaurant. I got the fish and chips and it was a huge bang for the buck. The food was literally overflowing from the plate not to mention delicious. The fish was exceptionally succulent and juicy. The service was quick and friendly. I would definitely make the drive again.

Really unique restaurant. Went on a Tuesday night. We will definitely go back closer to a weekend and see it on a busy night. I am sure it will be a great atmosphere. The owner introduced himself as we were leaving. He is really doing his best to live up his dream of owning a seafood restaurant. We tried just the fajitas because it was our first time, they were good. After talking to the owner, it sounded like he was more proud of the seafood. We will go back and try more of the seafood options.

I appreciated his personal story and time!

Nice to have a decent restraunt in area. It's been 3 years since I posted the review, so I'm editing at to take into effect that the food has changed a lot since then. The fried fish and oysters or fantastic. I've gone three times and all three times. They were great.

Father had the fried butterfly shrimp and hush puppies. All was good and nothing was greasy.

I just had the best snow crab legs in their garlic cilantro sauce! We also had the fried seafood platter and a ceviche tostada! Everything was tasty! Highly recommended!

The food was good. The atmosphere was relaxing and the service was great. Was the first tim trying here and everything we had was good. The waitress was very attentive. We had yhe calamari, fish ceviche, chargrill oysters and fried whole snapper. Food is reasonably priced. Definately going back.

7/10 ⭐

A boat shaped restaurant with some fun decor.

2 adults, 2 kids (under 4)

I had the shrimp Po boy! This was a fair entree served with popcorn shrimp lettuce tomato and sauce on fresh soft bread. It had an abundance of shrimp, though I would have preferred larger shrimp in less quantity that's just my preference. It doesn't punch you in the face with flavor but it is good.

A side of fries came with it, they use some kind of lemon or lime salt or spice on the fries which isn't disagreeable to me. Though it may surprise some it is mild.

Wife had Shrimp Alfredo, she enjoyed it .

The kids plates of popcorn shrimp and Chicken nuggets were large portions. More than enough for them.

Service was prompt and friendly.

Would visit again, have a few Oyster items I'd like to try.

Just now moving into the area and came across this place, and glad we came to dine in! The place is very nice from the outside and inside. Service is great, and the food is authentic and very delicious. This will definitely be our spot, can’t wait!

Great place for a Michelada! "The Vuelve A La Vida" Cocktail, and The "Ceviche" are prepared really Good! And fresh! By the Boss Man himself! Service is quick and friendly. You can't go wrong with this place! 5 Stars all the way!

The food was amazing. We ordered fajita quesadillas, shrimp cocktail and a ceviche Vallarta. The seafood tasted good and it looked very fresh. The shrimp was cleaned out good, saw 0 poop in my shrimp. Overall good experience.

Big selection to choose from and the food was very delicious!!!! They have seafood, pasta, and Mexican entrees. Good service and clean bathrooms. There is a big bar inside and an outdoor area. Lots of TVs to watch games or fights. Cant wait to eat there again!

I love this place alex is awesome an everyone love the service and atmosphere an Vanessa great service an food so close to my house much love from maurico the philly guy 🇲🇽 🇩🇴 perfecto

Me and my husband went here 2/21/21 and tried several dishes. I can’t say anything bad about the food or michalada. The gumbo was delicious. Oysters were cleaned well, out of 12 only 1 was gritty which is nothing to complain about, my husband had the bacon wrapped shrimp and they were cooked perfect. Crispy bacon and the shrimp wasn’t dried out on the inside. I had fried shrimp and fries. Both cooked perfect. The shrimp had batter on it which I wasn’t used to..... it was batter I normally eat of catfish but it was cooked great. The service was great as well. We went at noon and It started getting busy around the time we finished up.

The restaurant is very nice and clean!! AMAZING MUSIC!!! Customer service was awesome!! I will definitely recommend this restaurant plus on Fridays and Saturdays they have a DJ and karaoke! The food is very good!

We ordered fried catfish, crawfish, and fajitas. Everything came fresh,hot, and well seasoned. Food tasted really good. Server was friendly and attentive.
We didn't run out of tea.

They only serve beer and non alcoholic drinks that are essentially the exact same thing except no alcohol. I loved their fried rice, chicken with crawfish, the 7 mares soup is great too

We love it, great food music and service
