Hidden gem or …
March 4th, 2008 by Anthony Salveggi in RestaurantsI pass it whenever I take Park Boulevard east back to my home in West St. Pete, and if I keep my eyes peeled, I sometimes notice the small sign: “Mariscos el Pulpo.†It’s a Mexican restaurant, just west of the Albertson’s at the corner of 49th and Park. Housed in a small building set way back from the road, I’ve often wondered if Mariscos is a diamond in the rough known only to a small coterie of locals, or if it languishes in anonymity for a reason.
A quick Google search revealed nothing except for the address (4651 Park Blvd.); I was unable to find any reviews, though. If anyone has 411 on this place, let me know.

Why don’t you try it and let us know how it was!

Fine, I’ll be the canary in the coal mine. I passed by there again yesterday around 6 p.m. Not a single car in the lot. How do they stay in business? Let’s hope CL decides to foot the bill.
