Love comes through every dish at Alejandro “Serious Mexican, Mariscos, & Fusion Food” where each item on the menu is dedicated to Chef Alejandro’s family and friends.

The Campechana is a celebration of Alejandro’s brother Gilbert’s life. In 2021, Gilbert tragically passed away suddenly before sharing his dreams of opening a restaurant with Alejandro. In his honor, Chef Alejandro opened Alejandro “Serious Mexican, Mariscos, & Fusion Food” to continue both brothers’ passion for bringing joy to people through food.

This passion is taken with great care in all of the food at Alejandro, which explains why the campechana is so fresh you feel transported to the beach. The melange of abalone shrimp, octopus, scallop, and homemade shrimp broth, is dressed up with a colorful compliment of tomatoes, cucumber, serrano pepper, and a final touch of tajin and chiltepin sauce.

This attention to quality is a language of love.

Alejandro “Serious Mexican, Mariscos, & Fusion Food” is located at 7850 N. Silverbell Rd. #156. For more information, visit alejandroseriousmexicanfood.com.
