ZAVALETA'S MARISCOS RESTAURANT 77 North Glebe Road, Arlington, VA 22203

"Good seafood place in the middle of Arlington very friendly staff good service my wife and I had a great dinner here price is good for the amount of food definitely we come back again"

"I've been dinned in a few times and tried a few dishes, of course I have had the popular Poseidon soup! Two thumbs up!! It's delicious. You can't regret ordering it, it comes with so much seafood goodness in it, it's good for your soul! Their try with ceviche stile shrimp "aguachiles" is a good try but in my opinion, they need to perfect the marinate time for the shrimp to absorb the lemon acidity to cure the shrimp, let it become firm and opaque while absorbing flavor. The flavor of the sauce is there but the consistency of the shrimp on two occasions was either "overcooked" or served looking and smelling raw as if it was not allowed to marinate enough time. Their shrimp cocktail served in the green sauce could have been amazing if only the density of the avocado and cilantro wasn't too strong, when I order a shrimp cocktail I expect for shrimp to be the main character, the sauce should only enhance the shrimp flavor but in this case the avocado was so heavy that I couldn't taste the shrimp. It was like a mix of guacamole and cooked shrimp. Definitely not what I imagined by the description. Service is great for a Latin restaurant, I'm happy to experience a higher level of service at this new restaurant, it seems that they have acquired the team service concept from high end restaurants in the area and it's working! Well done!! I definitely recommend the try."

"The soup was delicious the customer service is horrible!!! Waited 10 minutes to have someone come get our order. Waited about 40 minutes for our food! They messed up our order. They also forgot my daughter food and when confronted they acted dumb!!!!! Not coming here again, what a bummer because the soup was great!"

"Home cooked meal and fried fish, hands down best fried fish in the DMV. The service was beyond great, very attentive and quick- they chief even came out and checked up on us. So glad we decided to despite the previous comments. THE FOOODDDDDD IS PHENOMENAL, like seriously!"
