I had the Singapur Tostada for $180 MXN and it was loaded with tons of fresh seafood. The star was the Smoked Marlin tostada for $50 MXN -- it was so flavorful and fresh! Don't miss the salsas located to the left of the stand. I didn't see that and one of the employees was so kind and help dress up my tostadas to my spice preference. Also make sure to get the horchata, as it was the best I've ever had! It was sweet, creamy, and spiced well. This place is in my top 10 favorite bites of all time, it's so simple but so good.

Honorary 6 Stars In…read moreEnsenada, our absolute favorite thing to do is eat fresh churros. It was raining on our port day, but we still ventured out to feed our churro craving. Luckily, Churros El Tio Gelos was in the first grouping of booths that you get to walking from the cruise ships. My daughter said "That's the one from last time! I remember because of the Minions". Try to remember your pesos since they charge a premium if you only have dollars. When we got there, they had a stack of churros ready to go in a fry basket. We waited a few minutes for them to sell through those. Once they started a new batch, we asked if we could have the fresh ones. One of the workers extrudes the churro batter directly into the oil, flips it once, and pulls it magical coils once they turn golden brown. Then the coil is broken down into sticks, coated in sugar and cinnamon, and into a paper bag or styrofoam box. I'd have them put it directly into my mouth if it was allowed. If you've ever gone to a theme park and thought the churros were pretty good, these churros will blow your mind. They're crispy on the outside, a little chewy on the inside, and just the right amount of sugar, cinnamon, and oil. It just lights up every sensor in the primitive parts of our brains. One of the only foods we don't have a good picture of since we eat them immediately. Easily one of the best bites I've ever had.

Some of the best tamales de elote in the city, but you have to visit Valle Dorado for the hot corn…read moreaction. The tamales are made by hand, and pure corn style (no masa in the filling). Flavors of tamales I have tasted here: piña, elote, queso con rajas. The cóctel de elote is also a great deal and comes loaded with queso, limón, mayo, mantequilla, papitas of various kinds. Elotilocos & nachos con elotes also on the menu. This place is open only in the evenings (beside the Oxxo), from 6 - 10, but it's worth return visits to explore the full menu. The two sisters who run the business are the kindest and coolest. When their mom is joining them, it's likely there's music and a little singing/dancing to brighten your dinner hour. It's a fun time for a late night elote craving.

It's been a year since we were last in Ensenada, and I've honestly been thinking about this…read morerestaurant ever since. We've already done all the touristy things, so this time, coming back here was pretty much the one thing I really wanted to do. I tried to make a reservation 10 days in advance, but no one answered the phone. I eventually DMed them on Instagram, and they gave me another number to try. Of course, life got in the way, I forgot, and suddenly it was the day of our Ensenada stop. We walked past the restaurant around 11:30 and saw people already working inside, so we poked our heads in and asked if they could fit us in at 2:00 for two people. No problem! They told us we had 90 minutes, which was perfect. We did see a few people get turned away because they didn't have reservations, so I'd definitely recommend making one in advance. I would hate to make the trip all the way there and get turned away! We came back a little before 2, were seated immediately, and went straight for the two dishes I remembered loving: the half-order ceviche and the fish risotto. We also wanted the seafood pasta, but our waiter wisely warned us that the ceviche was enough for 2-3 people and the risotto for 3-4. For two people, adding the pasta would be way too much. He was absolutely right! The ceviche was fantastic, and I was already getting full, but the fish risotto? I loved it so much that somehow we finished the whole thing. Do we have free food on the cruise? Absolutely. But would I get off the ship and come back here again if I were in Ensenada? Absolutely yes. Add a michelada for me, a beer for my husband, and a roughly $60 bill for two, and that's pretty much my definition of a perfect afternoon in Ensenada. One of the best meals of the trip and totally worth coming back for.
