Great food just across the street from the bay. Open, indoor outdoor seating. Quick service even when crowded. Ample free parking behind the restaurant. These days the place goes by the name Bismark-Cito. Full bar. If the weather is nice this is a great place to dine while looking out over the water and seeing the activity along the malecon read more

The Oyster Bismark is good, the baked oyster combination can try, steamed clams taste ok but don't be surprised with it's nail size. The lobster cream (soup) is very disappointed yet expensive.... and be ready to dine with plenty of flies if dining outdoor. Menu in Spanish only but their service is very good read more

Delicious seafood, great beach view and professional service. Our server was super personable and knowledgeable, he recommended really good Mexican wine. The best seafood we had in La Paz. read more

Food was 'ok' but not very warm nor interesting- service was inefficient and frenetic-

The service here is absolutely awful - painfully slow with disinterested and bored staff... This is a tourist trap and the seafood is really not that great. We ordered a ceviche, that was inexcusably bad and a Lobster Thermidor that turned out to be a mushroom thermidor (there were probably 3 pieces of lobster in it). All in all it was very disappointing. The fish tacos we ordered were pretty low quality (we recommend you go to Mc-Fisher a couple of blocks away if you want really excellent fish tacos!). Definitely not a recommend from us... read more

After a few days in La Paz, we were finally excited to find a "nicer" place for dinner. Our waiter was super nice, spoke English (that was a plus because the entire menu was in Spanish but I expected nothing less) and was very helpful. We ordered the lobster platter for two, hugeeeee portion! It would have been amazing but the lobster was extremely over cooked, half of the scallops were over cooked and the other half were under cooked, the fish was good as well as the shrimp. Thank goodness I ordered the clam chowder to start or else I would have left hungry. And the chowder...so good!! It was a tad disappointing the amount we paid for the food that we received. But other than that, service, drinks and the view were great! read more

Food was bad and expensive. Drinks were lame and Food was insipid. We ordered a pescando sarandeado and lobster tacos both were bad. Service was alright. Definitely not worth thr price. read more

It was hard for them to satisfy 2 hungry vegetarians, especially because it's mostly seafood restaurant, but we're very grateful that personnel was trying to help us out by any means. We ate very tasty sauce which had crab in it (oops), no complaints tho, it was very tasty! ( We need to improve our Spanish). Location is great, you feel nice breeze from the sea. It was memorable and great stop on the way to majestic Balandra Beach. read more

Bismark - Guacamole and nachos, yummy, yummy :) - Seafood Near Me - La Paz, BCS

Was looking around for a place to take 4 BAJA CRUISE American friends when they come in April and the ambiance looked right, lots of gringoes sitting around so entered & sat at bar, ordered Bismark shrimp (tasty shrimp wrapped in bacon & melted cheese on top). Where it went downhill was when waiter realizing I wanted a refreshing drink recommended a non alcohol cucumber libation. Loved it ...however pretty sure it was the culprit, Turista diarrhea hit that evening which lasted several days, even taking garlic oil pills! I noticed when sitting at bar the workers were cutting, chopping cucumbers with bare hands, who knows if they were taking restroom breaks & did not thoroughly wash hands? Maybe cucumbers were not washed properly, who knows? A place like this right on the malecon with a long standing reputation should do better. read more

sAte there the other day. The server brought us a taco menu of which over half the items were not available. Unless of course we ordered the more expensive taco meal entree. Service was slow and the food was mediocre. Really sad that it wasn't as good as other yelpers' food and experience. Won't be back again. But may try the other the Bismark that's in town and not on the malecon. read more

Stopped here when we visited La Paz and boy I was not disappointed. Ordered the lobster and it was perfectly seasoned and grilled. Beautiful view of the beach from every seat in the house and service was good. read more

Food is not great and service is even worse. It has nice ambiance but other than that, take your money elsewhere

Food was decent. Service was meh. Location with the sunset on the Malecon is the big draw.

Very good place for seafood. Right on the water with a nice breeze. The waiter was knowledgeable and spoke good English. I instantly became a fan of the stuffed clams! Great homemade lemonade as well. read more

My experience with this place is bad. Bad costumer service, bad food, without any flavor... and it came from microwave! I don't recommend it

This is a very nice place. The food is delicious. We ordered shrimp cocktail, pescado zarandeado, and camarones a la diabla. Desert was to die for. My favorite was the mango cheesecake. read more

Great service and good food. We enjoyed the sea food soup and stuffed peppers. Get some of the shrimp balls as appetizers, they are tasty. read more

Over rated! I was looking forward to having the lobster but disappointed that it was not seasoned and dry. It's also only served with a salad saturated in mayo with a side of sauce. Real butter would have been better. The view is what I enjoyed the most. Even our taxi driver told us we shouldn't have eaten there because it's over priced and quality of food has gone down over the years. read more

After a day at the beach swimming and stand-up paddle boarding we stopped at Bismarkcito for dinner. After a bit of a mix up with seating, our party of 6 was seated. Drinks were ordered and arrived quickly. We ordered from their fairly extensive menu. Due to the seating mix up we were comped a serving of ceviche. Fish tacos, pizza for my grandson and the best Chile rellenos(stuffed with shrimp) ever were served hot and fresh. Muy delicioso. Six people, many beers and soft drinks all for 1410 pesos-just under $80US. Excellent! read more

We went here on a recommendation and we agree this place is pretty darn good! We stopped in for a late dinner and like most recommendations we were a little cautious. So we order simple foods like a fish trio taco plate and chips & guacamole but the menu had plenty of variety and sounded good so we decided to come back the following day. On our second go around we order octopus over firewood and a stuff fish with shrimp and veggies, both plates were delicious. We would recommend to anyone to give this restaurant a try read more

Delicious tacos. Make sure to bring pesos as usd cash has a low exchange rate. Lemonade is super fresh and tasty. read more

Bismark - Front - Seafood Near Me - La Paz, BCS

Delicious seafood and a great view of the Sea of Cortez. The restaurant is located in the center of La Paz near él malecón (sea wall or seafront). There's no obvious signage, unless you see or look out for the restaurants mural adjacent to the restaurant. Parking is limited, that's if you're driving a rental, and walking distance from any hotel or vacation home you rent near el malecón. Their scallops (aka calló de hacha) are soft and fresh from the Sea of Cortez. Service is Great! Their tuna steak in mustard sauce is well done and flavorful. Great place for families. They accept Visa or MasterCard...most shops in Baja Sur don't accept American Express, unless you shop at high end stores or chain supermarkets. read more

Bismark - Great seafood in La Paz, Mexico! - Seafood Near Me - La Paz, BCS

Best part about this experience was the food- but beware that their dollar to peso conversion is 15-1 instead of 18-1. Because of a slight language barrier, the order wasn't correct and it took almost 40 minutes to get our food- it also ended up being pretty pricey- our two meals ended up being 75 dollars total (not including tip). It's got a beautiful view, I'm just not sure it's worth the money! read more

I love the clams with yummy cheese. We will definatly have these again. I wish we had time to grab them to go b4 we leave la paz. Its a must get and try. I loved them. Chilli Rieno stuffed omg yummy and we also go the fish wraped in shrimp it was ok but the other two dishes were so yummy i wish i had more read more

Love this place. We follow the Yelp and worth it. Make sure to take your time ,good food does have to wait and be patience. Order lobster and Margarita... yummy read more

Bismark - The front views - Seafood Near Me - La Paz, BCS

This was a fun first stop on our trip to La Paz. We drive around and thought it had a cool vibe and then someone recommended it so we popped in. We sat under a large tree to keep a little cool but it was still pretty warm. The flies were out but the restaurant did a nice job of putting candles on the tables to try to get rid of them. The margaritas were decent. They were a little sweet, even the skinny ones, but they were good. We had a scallop ceviche to start which was nice, but lacked a little bit of flavor. Then we each had fish. The fish with garlic was really good. It was a light flaky fish prepared with lots of fresh garlic on top. We also had a sesame crusted tuna steak. The chef recommended it medium so we ordered it as such but it came out well done and was a little chewy. The potatoes and asparagus that came with it was nice. For the kids we ordered the fish fingers and the fish was nice and big and flaky. They shared one plate and it was more than enough. read more

Something is wrong here. Maybe it changed owners and that's why it changed names? The food was just awful. Nothing looked like the pictures on the menu. All of the seafood just tasted old, especially the oysters, which were the worst I've ever had in my entire life. The octopus was supposed to be fresh and grilled, but was previously frozen and just sautéed. It tasted like the inside of a refrigerator and had a slimey texture. The salad was a small pile of shredded lettuce, canned sliced black olives, and two slices of unripe tomato. Rice had no flavor and was mushy. The free chips I was served was about 40% the crumbs at the bottom of the bag. My table was covered in food when I was seated and I had to ask twice for it to be cleaned. Even the margarita was just sour with no taste of tequila. They don't even make fresh salsa! Why does anyone eat here ever? Lesson learned, I won't be back. Don't make the same mistake as me. read more

We have currently been waiting over 45 minutes for dinner after ordering on a night that is not busy. Food might or might not be good if I am still awake when it arrives. read more

Delicious seafood clean and relax environment . Fast service , first option for ppl who wants to dining close to the ocean of La Paz

This is a nice location but of the ten dishes we ordered one didn't come, two were good, and the rest were pretty bad. The lobster wasn't fresh, nor was the civiche. read more

We went for dinner last night . It was an awful experience for our first dinner in La Paz. The appetizer was corn chips with a tuna dip, we found hairs in the corn chips. We ordered scallops, it was over cooked, like a tough leather, salty and greasy. Disgusting! The service was poor! We were so disappointed of the Bismark-cito. read more

Delicious food, excellent service. Camarones a la Diabla had more like a Spicy BBQ sauce and wrapped in bacon so if you're looking for a traditional Camarones a la Diabla just note it will be different. Tacos Gobernadores de Langosta (Lobster) were delicious. Seems like a place where you can trust the quality. Great waiter. Prices by Mexican standards are $$ but would also consider this place a step up from most local restaurants. Would definitely return. read more

I was not impressed. From the outside Bismark looks like a great environment with good food. That was not the case. For starters, we ordered clams. I haven't tasted something that bad in a long time. I ordered tacos de longosta. They were dominated heavily buttered tortillas. Service was ok. They need to bring there game up. read more

Pretty good... service good. Fish tacos great and reasonably priced. Great view! And I was surprised on the price! Quesadilla con Pescado. Lemonada. 82p!!! read more

Stunning view. Seafood galore options on the menu. We had garlic lobster for two for only 900 peso. Mixed ceviche with shrimp, fish, and oyster. The beers were cold. The service was good. It seems more like a locals joint but we still felt welcomed. Left here with a happy belly. read more

Food and service is okay. Will not return.a place we can do without. We had the pizza and ceviche oh and the cotel de camaron.

Good, but not memorable. All seating is covered but open to breezes off the bay. Was chilly and windy the night we were there (1/14/17) and after some delay the server moved us to a table more out of the wind, which helped. read more

Tacos are solid here. Nice selection. The ceviche is awesome. Lots of flies buzzing around, but they aren't too aggressive. Patio and bar seating. I came middle of the week a few months ago and the place was empty. This time on a Thursday, it was much busier. Apparent La Paz is a weekend town. read more

An okay place but if your are a party of more than three people, then give yourselves no less than an hour to get your food after you order the meals. Very slow. read more
