This beautiful little spot serves the best Mexican & seafood in the area! We were delightfully surprised by the food & the service. Every plate we’ve tried so far has been beyond expectations. The atmosphere plus freshness feels like you’re near the ocean. The authenticity & unique flavors are setting us up to try everything on the menu!
So far, we’ve been impressed by the whole fish plate, enchiladas, quesatacos de birria, aguachiles & carne asada. 10/10 recommend.

Yummy Mexican food. Price $15-25 for lunch. No kids menu.
Highly recommend the Birria. Rice was ok, mine was cooked well but cold. Chips, salsa and guacamole cost extra. The chips and guacamole were fresh and tasty.
Specializes in Mexican food with seafood.
Definitely a fun place to try, and already busy.
Love the atmosphere.
Relaxing music and TV’s that show scenery from Mexico; beautiful places. Ambiance is nice too.
There aren’t a lot of seats.

This place was superb. Right as you walk in, The ambience is wonderful. They clearly have thought through how to make a beautiful place warm and inviting. The staff were very kind and accommodating. But the food is the star here. We had a Valentine’s Day special called “surf turf“ and we also had the “enchiladas suizas”. For dessert we had a five layer cake and flan. The presentation of all of these dishes was gorgeous. We will definitely be coming back here again!

This place was excellent. They were all friendly and helpful. The food tasted so earthy and flavorful. We got the Taquiza Snapper, which had 3 different tacos and the Enchiladas Suizas. Their chips and salsa were homemade and very good. We will go back for sure.

Our first time eating here because a friend recommended. We had great first impression. They have a cool painting of a shark by the entrance and nautical type decor. The restaurant was clean and everyone was friendly when we got there. It was decorated nicely and the food tasted great. We got chips and salsa, horchata, carne asada street tacos, and carne asada burrito. Would recommend going with a small group.

I’ve been going to Snappers since they were inside the Mexican grocery store, and it’s been amazing to see them grow and move into their new location! The food has always been incredible — I literally crave it almost every week.
The seafood Taquiza platter, aguachiles, and guacamole with chips are my go-tos, and everything is always so fresh and flavorful. The owners are wonderful people who truly care about their customers and community, and it feels so good to support a local business like this.
Every time my husband and I come in, we’re treated like family — everyone is so welcoming and kind. I can’t recommend Snappers enough!

Was hesitant initially as I am particular with Mexican food, but was ecstatic after my first bite. Everything was delicious- tacos de pescado & taquiza street tacos (plate) – we had to try fish, chorizo, chicken, pastor, and carne asada tacos! Queso was 4/5; wouldn’t order again to save room to try other entrees. Reasonably priced for the quality and portion. Quality was exceptional, as was flavor.

The atmosphere is adorable. Nothing screams Mexican but the place is open and has nautical feel. We got the Mexican fondita for starter and it was okay. The fondita did look better before I took the picture but we had already mixed it by the time I took the picture. The flavor was very good but it was hard to eat because the cheese was just melted in a bowl no cream or anything added to it to make it so that it didn’t just stick together in a clump. Tacos Gobernador was my main entree and I was disappointed. The bell peppers were raw and made it so you couldn’t taste the shrimp. It was also so much cheese on the taco that it felt more like a corn quesadilla then a regular taco with some cheese peppers and onions. It was also advertised that my taco would be crunchy but unfortunately it was just chewy where they toasted it on the outside and the inside was left raw.
My husband got the Berea quesadilla and he said that it was good very brisket like. He said it was nothing to write home about nothing special and just overpriced. I heard so many good things about this place I was excited to try it but unfortunately we will not go back and I advise that you do not waste your money on it. I fully expected in the next few days there will be a flood of positive reviews following this one because that’s what people do. If they get a bad review they suddenly ask all their friends and neighbors to review it positively to try to block out the negative review but this is a completely accurate review in my opinion.

The atmosphere is incredible. You can easily think you were entering a dine in restaurant right off the beach in Mexico. The food is mouthwatering. I’d a say the best Mexican food in the area. Anything seafood. Anything Birria. Amazing.
