La Costa Azul - Fairfield (CA)

2 /5 Local Guide: I recommend going early or mid day! Don’t go late like I did the second time. Went there before they closed and this place wasn’t the same unfortunately… New to this area, I’ve been to this place twice, the seafood plate and shrimp tacos was fire- I went hr after it opened on a Sunday. Then I went again few weeks later, It was about 45 mins before they closed and let me tell you, 40 seafood the plate was skimpy and just not the same as the first time we went, my wife’s pineapple drink tasted like water and pineapple pulp. The young lady working the counter coulda have been a little nicer, maybe it was to close to quitting time. Other than that this place was extremely clean, seems like this place would be really nice to have a dinner at, seeing how clean it was. I’m not sure if it was just quitting time and they was all tired. But I wish them the best, I think I would try them one more time to make sure it was it was just a one time deal.

4 /5 Tom Schlemmer: The dish I had was very very tasty! It was called Cielo Mar y Tierra. It consisted of chicken, beef and shrimp. It came with rice and refried beans. To wash it down I just had to get a michelada. Their micheladas are award winning by the way. The service was top notch. We were greeted with a big smile and cheerful attitude. Our servers checked on us frequently but not too much. This is a place I would be happy to go back to, to enjoy a meal.

4 /5 Crystal: Soooo good and worth the distance to come here. Luis helped us with our order. I was certainly torn between a few items but he recommended the Botana de Cameron based on their signature Michelada sauce (they sale it there) and that I didn’t want rice that they use chicken broth in; he ordered the Pollo de Jalapeño. It did take a while for our order to be complete as it is a super popular restaurant and the outcome explains why. During covid you may place your order at the window or through DoorDash for pickup and delivery. The flavor? Ooooooh so yummy. If you are a vegan don’t order the Botana de Cameron because it is cooked on the grill and I did find pieces of meat. But the flavors are so explosive. The sauce itself I wished I purchased a bottle. We also ordered guacamole and chips and again absolutely delicious and there wasn’t any leftovers. A must try if you’re in Fairfield.
