Tres Islas Seafood - Moreno Valley

This is the kind of restaurant I use to experience in Mexico back in the early 1980's. Concrete floors, basic tables and chairs and full of locals. Add to that great seafood. We started with Almejas Chocolatas or Chocolate Clams, a local Baja delicacy. They were 36 pesos $2) for a large 2 sides of the clams, chopped with lime as is the tradition. Then we had large prawns wrapped in bacon with a super hot and tasty habenero salsa. Huge portions, supper tasty and add 2 Pacifico beers to quench the thirst and you get a bill of $65 for 2 people. This is a great place for seafood and local people watching. Large families celebrating graduations etc. It not that big, so get there early. But if you like excellent seafood and a taste of old Mexico, this is your place.

Excellent food and service. We ordered the seafood platter and we’re not disappointed. Highly recommend. I also ordered a most excellent margarita.

Always a good experience at Trea Islas, ladies are always very helpful and with a smile ready to help you.

Get ready for a local culinary Seafood adventure! Mariscos las Tres Islas is a brilliant local seafood restaurant in downtown Cabo San Lucas. It 's mostly locals that go here, the occasional tourists do stumble in...probably found this place through social media or local recommendations. The menu doesn 't provide you a description of any dishes...just a name. Our server spoke English well enough but didn 't understand everything we asked him. Some brilliant Seafood: Almejas en su Concha (Fresh clam on the shell) 5/5 These are Cabo 's local clams. To the rest of the world they are also known as Almejas Chocolate or Chocolate Clams. They chop it up for you, put it back in the shell and serve it with a spoon. It 's served plain allowing one to add all kinds of sauces or other condiments. They have a very unique sweet flavor, squeeze some lime over it and the flavor pops out even more. I don 't recommend using any hot sauce, it will mask the unique flavor of the Clams. Nicknamed Baja 's seafood candy , chocolate clams (almejas chocolatas) are the delightfully named shellfish specialty of this beautiful peninsula. Their scientific name is Megapitaria squalida, with their common name resulting from their brown color (rather than having a chocolate flavor). They have a meaty and tender flesh that makes them particularly delicious and are the largest of the west coast bivalves, growing up to six inches in diameter. Chocolate clams can be found in the coastal lagoons that stretch south from Magdalena Bay along the Pacific side of Baja California Sur, as well as in the Sea of Cortez all the way south to Guatemala. It 's here that they bury themselves in the sandy bottoms in dense populations before migrating to deeper waters as they grow. Stolen from: seakayakadventures blog on 2019/04/10 Cebada 4/5 Never heard of a Cebada. It tasted like a Horchata but more chocolatey. The Cebada was darker as well. I 'm still not to sure how it 's made or what it is. Pulpo al Ajillo (Ajillo Octopus) 4.5/5 Octopus served with rice and veggies. I believe it was chopped up and grilled with some spices. Simple but tasty. Cameron Cucaracha (Cockroach shrimp) 5/5 This was amazing! Lots of flavor. The name can throw you off, but don 't be scared...no cockroaches here. Just an amazing dish loaded with a generous amount of Shrimp bursting with lots of flavor. I think this is Asian inspired...from what I remember it has Soy Sauce and Sesame Oil. Tacos de Callito (Clam scallops taco) 5/5 Packed with battered Clams Scallops...fried I believe. Delicious stuffed tacos! I 'd easily make this my go to spot when I head back to Cabo!

Very nice place to go buy your Seafood very clean and nice staff
