    We came here last evening and we had a great experience here. This restaurant was easily missed, because the outside looks like any other biilding en el centro. There was no line por a crowd waiting outside for a table. However the momento that we walked in, we both realizado how popular this place really is. It Is definitely onnthe higuera end compares with the other restaurants that we visited. Allá of the employeed aré super profesionales and they allá wear actual suits. I wanted to go for the traditional type of seafood, which was the camarones grande with their palmera mixed with the house mayonesa sauce. These were si hige jumbo sized shrimp that were sauteed to perfection. She decided on the ostiones gratinados en su concha that included twelve pieces that were prepared with their special seafood sauce. For appetizers I ordered the sopa roja, and she got the sopa verde. We both ordered two capuchinos to sip on while we waited for our ordered. For the actual drinks with dinner we both ordered limonadas, which Is leamonade en inglés. The food and service were absolutely wonderful!

    Great service! Great seafood selections! Nice old school restaurant feel! Recommend for sure! No fluff in terms of interior decor. Nothing pretentious, just solid good food for anyone looking for nice seafood selections in the Centro district. Ask for an English menu if needed.

    I was perhaps the last diner of the night in this charming restaurant. The streets were already quiet at 8:30 when I was warmly welcomed. I had two ceviche appetizers - fish and octopus - that were quite tasty. A local white wine was a perfect complement for this wine snob. The entree was whole red snapper, garlic grilled. The fish was sublime. Rarely do you get whole fish that had the most wonderful flavor through and through - fish and a wonderful sense of garlic. Moist and wonderful. The meal was finished with a local smoky Mezcal. This is a real gem - mucho gracias!

    How does one say yummy in espanol? Yo no se. This is a local hangout that specializes in seafood prepared in a Basque tradition. Though their menu is extensive, stick with (as the locals do) the grilled crawfish. What a garlicky treat!! And quite abundant. Compliment it with your favorite tequila and you're ready to take on the streets of Mexico City.

    They could seem expensive (one order is approx 500 pesos) but are perfect to share between two or three.

    The setting is really good. Everything we ordered was very tasty. We ordered the croquettes and…read moreoctopus appetizer - yummy. Also ordered the baby lamb which was really tasty and delicate. The lechon was also very good. The paella was ok because I think they need to get it out soon. Service and drinks were really good. Amazing ambiance and super clean restrooms.

    We came on Saturday night for the medieval dinner, we made recommendations in advance but it looked…read morelike there was enough space where you could come last second if you didn't have a reservation. Their website said the dinner went from 830-1030, but it doesn't actually start until 9 and the show ends closer to 1130 (though the wine does stop 2 hours after they first bring it out) The four course meal is enough to keep you full, but none of the dishes are spectacular. I liked the entree the best, the boar was really tender and the nutty sauce complimented it well. It's hard for me to not like a dish where nutty is one of the predominant flavors so take it with a grain of salt. The show was very well done, even as someone who doesn't speak Spanish I found it very entertaining. They had a wide range from musical performance to acrobatics and audience interaction with giant jesters. While the show was a fun time I do think there are better ways you could spend a Saturday evening if you're only in town for one weekend. If you happen to live in the area or be around for an extended period of time I think it'a a fun night out.
