Both my partners parents called this place "the best restaurant they had in Veracruz"…read more Our favorite dish here, the one I highly recommend, is the "Camarones estancia" which had shrimp, cheese and peppers/onions in a creamy green sauce (pictured below). That dish, which was 240 pesos, is a solid 5 stars. We also ordered their signature dish, the "molcajete del Rey" which was an octopus, shrimp and garlic soup served in the restaurants traditional stone wear bowl made from volcanic rock for 378 pesos. It was good, but I definitely preferred the "camarones estancia" more. We also tried some tacos de pulpo, which were a little too spicy for me but my partner and his parents really enjoyed and I ordered the "ensalada berros" for 100 pesos which had peppery watercress greens, pine nuts, goat cheese with walnuts, little crunchy bits and cherry tomatoes. It was good but I had wished that it would have come with a salad dressing. I especially enjoyed the goat cheese balls in it and used some of the sauce from the "camarones estancia" to dress it since I really liked that sauce and it was not too spicy. The "liquado de papaya" was also good but it appeared to be mixed either with a thick yogurt drink or sweetened condensed milk which made it very rich and likely high in sugar and lactose so it is not for everyone. One thing I will say is that if you pay using a card make sure they are not overtipping you since they kept calculating a 50% tip on our bill and we kept having to repeatedly correct them for it - so just make sure you don't get scammed, particularly because the prices here are more expensive than many of the other restaurants in the area.

My partner ordered the arroz a la tumbada which was the meal of the day and came with this pear/honey dew flavored drink. It had a very flavorful broth and a good variety of seafood which included crab, octopus, clams, fish and prawn style shrimp. Yum. My only complaint was there was a little sand in some of the seafood. I would not hesitate to come here again and thought the food was reasonable since it was less than 250 pesos for two meals that all three of us shared.
