Summary- Spectacular lunch. No notes…read more Food- 5 stars Everything that came to table was amazing... fish tacos on two formats, one fried, one al pastor both awesome. Shrimp toastados also great, white wine clam pasta was very good. Service- 5 stars Friendly, fast, helpful- just all around great. Atmosphere- 5 stars Welcoming, bustling but not super loud. Drinks- 5 stars 10/10 Carajillo and the Jamaica mezcal was outstanding.

We made a reservation for 1pm on à Sunday. You must make them an advance. Not sure what the wait…read moretime would be but it was already packed when we arrived. Very busy restaurant and located in a very lovely area. The staff was amazing and in sync. We started with some cocktails - the guava mezcalita and jamaica mezcalita and also the chardonnay that was very tasty. Here's what we had: -Tostadas de atun(tuna tostadas)- must get -Ensalada de Pulpo con patatas tibias con albhaca(octopus with potatoes and basil) - octopus wasn't very good and there was no flavor -Pescado à la talla Contramar(grilled whole fish with salsas on top)I would only get the one with just the red sauce, the green sauce didn't have a lot of flavor. This is very filling and enough for 4 people -Tacos de Pescado estilo Ensenada(fried fish tacos) - these were ok The dessert, though!! This is what the extra star is for - The Meringue with Fresas(meringue cake with strawberries)- OMG soooo good. Even after how incredibly full we were, we could not stop eating this. Delicious and so unique but with the classic flavor of strawberries and whipped cream. Don't forget to add a carajillo! À delicious coffee drink with coffee liqueur.

We stopped by here for relatively late dinner at 9pm on a Saturday night. We were staying at a…read morenearby hotel and this restaurant was only a couple blocks away. We had the small octopus cocktail, grilled vegetables, spicy fish tacos, and soft shell crab tacos - that was plenty of food for the two of us. We were the only Americans there, but it was pretty obvious that we weren't locals so they gave us the English menus and our waiter spoke excellent English. The grilled vegetables consisted of marinated portobello mushrooms, green beans, and a carrot. The mushrooms were quite tasty. The octopus cocktail was very refreshing and the spicy fish tacos were pretty good too. We finished the meal with a corn bread dessert (much sweeter than American cornbread) and flan. Both were very good.

This little unsuspecting gem will be a delightful treat for those who like seafood and are in the…read morearea for lunch. Cozy with great service, we enjoyed a nice shrimp broth aperitif (caldo de camarón), ahí tuna tostadas worth caramelized onions and crispy leeks, and grilled octopus. With two glasses of wine, each person paid $25usd including tip (roughly). They also bring you a table-side display of the catch of the day and everything seemed fresh and amazing, with delicious sounding ways to cook them (branzino, or lemon caper sauce, etc.)
