    Another delicious meal! This time I tried the seafood soup. I already knew the tacos were great and now I know the soup is as well!

    A friend and I BOTH got sick from their fish tacos. We know it was this place that got us sick because this was the only place we ordered the same food from. I have an American belly but have never had a problem with the taco shops in Northern Baja. Would not recommend coming here as a tourist. Tacos were otherwise OK. Most other taco joints are the same taste-wise, if not better. Obviously will not be back after 24 hours of puking.

    This place is must if you're in Baja Norte. I have tried almost all the tacos and they have not disappointed. It's where the locals in Ensenada go. This place has a history of an old tuna packing company. It's ecliptic and wonderful. The service is serve your self and pay at the end. Awesome sauce!!!

    The best tacos in Baja California. Marco is extremely welcoming and kind. His family's hospitality is the cherry on top of their world class food.

    Marco Antonio fish taco, tuna adobado fish taco and a delicioso consomé!!!

    After googling different spots for fish tacos while out in Ensenada for the weekend I decided to give this spot a try. I'm glad I did, their variety of fish tacos at this spot is amazing. They offer many styles of fish tacos. The decoration at the place is unique and nice. It used to be a tuna packing warehouse back in the days and now it's a fish taco restaurant! Their tacos I decided to try were flavorful, I also tried their consomé de Pescado was was delicious also! I highly recommend this spot for anyone trying to get some of the best fish tacos you will ever try!

    Fun art.

    I got a local tip about this place, near the coworking space where I have been working. Such an interesting space amongst the mechanics, lots of stuff to look at, fun for the kids and the range of seafood tacos is excellent. Great to meet Marco Antonio himself, legend! Highly recommend.

    The fish tacos here are EXCELLENT. My friend and I only tried the Pescado Enpanizado "con todo" (which means with everything on it) and they we SO good! They have an amazing salsa bar here with most additions you'd need to add. I don't think I have had a fish taco taco as good as this place anywhere EVER. The prices are reasonable I will say. With the current US dollar to Mexican peso rate (21 pesos for $1), this place is decent. There are some that are slightly cheaper, but overall for the taste, quality, and environment, this place is a must when in Ensenada. It's located in a neighborhood so getting to it might be more difficult. It's not by the touristy areas so you'll need to find transportation to get here. The ambience in here is pretty cool as well. It seems like it used to be a smaller warehouse, but was converted into an open and airy taco place; seems a bit industrial looking inside. There are some cool things around if oh look closely. The cashier who took care of us was extremely nice and wished us a great day. The service here is quick, friendly, and the food is amazing. I can't wait to come back here!

    So goooood! Tacos de camarón en salsa chipotle are a 10/10. Super cheap too! Muy amable, nos atendieron muy bien.

    Recommend this place 100 %

    The Ramses taco... forget about it~ Air light crispy battered fish with chipotle sauced shrimp, light onions and your choice of toppings. My preference as you can see is cabbage shreads and cilantro with a Red Chile salsa that underlines it's presence. The lemon slice always has an open invitation. The Ramses taco,... my new favorite

    Our favorite place we visited in Ensenada for "Thanksgiving" 2018. It was our first spot after driving straight from Los Angeles. We arrived around 9:30AM, they had just opened up. You do have to walk past a little coffee cart but keep going and you'll see it. It's somewhat cafeteria style where you pay at the end. So remember what you ate and be truthful! They're trusting us to be honest so it's the least we can do as well. It's 2 older men serving you everything from marlin tacos/quesadillas, fried shrimp tacos, etc. After proceed to the massive array of salsas I would say try a dot of everything til you find what you like! Nothing was overly spicy so don't be scared It's a great location with a lot of character and amazing local sea food. Parking is a toss up so go early because as you can it does get packed.

    Shrimp tacos with salsa de crema.

    When in Ensenada, seafood is a must. I've only had shrimp tacos a few times throughout my lifetime but I must say, this particular taco with the house crema sauce on top was something that I'll crave for the next upcoming weeks. Just to sample a few we ordered shrimp (camarón), marlin, pescado empanizado (fried fish) and a quesadilla de marlin. We got them all with the crema on it. The man assisting us did a good job of showing us everything on their menu before we ordered and pointed us in the direction of the salsas once we were done. They had this bar area filled with 5-7 different salsas lined up along with cilatro, limes, onions, and pico de gallo. I would highly advise to try them first because you'll be in for a shocking surprise. Luckily I put a little of a few different salsas to try on my plate. I had my first shrimp taco with this brick colored red salsa (de arbol?) and I must say, it definitely had me crying/ semi panicking HAHA! I've always said, if a salsa can make me cry, it's damn good! Overall the fish tacos were absolutely delicious, fresh, and so flavorful. They're really changing the game with mixing fish and dairy! Don't let the location detour you from trying some must have food in Ensenada.

    Outstanding & so delicious!! You have to try the tostada de marlin + adobada de atun

You can follow the crowd toward whatever tourist approved establishment has the biggest sign and the loudest music, or you can walk a little closer to the water, find the place the locals clearly know about, and sit down before anyone else from the ship figures out what you just found. My wife and I chose option two and ended up at El Chente, an outdoor spot close enough to the port that we could still see the ship while eating, which felt like the perfect level of adventure without actually going rogue. We ordered the Ceviche Tostino served in a bag, essentially a walking taco format but with ceviche, which is either the most brilliant delivery system for seafood or proof that the galaxy's best ideas are always the simplest ones. Every bite had the kind of freshness that reminds you why ceviche exists in the first place: bright, citrusy, packed with crisp vegetables and seafood that tasted like it had no interest in being anywhere other than exactly where it was. We also ordered a tostada ceviche, which arrived flat and loaded and just as fresh, the kind of dish that makes you eat slowly because you don't want it to be over. Both were paired with a Corona, which in the Ensenada sun at an outdoor table next to the water is not just a beverage choice but a philosophical stance on how a port day should go. No dark side energy anywhere on this patio. Just good food, cold beer, and the quiet satisfaction of two people who made the right call the moment they got off the ship. Five stars. El Chente is the kind of Rebel outpost you hope to find every time you dock somewhere new and almost never do. We found it. Remember the name.

The tripas taco was fire and the cabeza taco was really great. Chips and salsa was meh and I asked for an octopus taco and and I think it was chopped clams.

I'm willing to pay for the table! That said, if you're going for the famous sea urchin (erizo) tostada, I think you'll have to eat in the restaurant because they simply just make it better than the stand. I tried from both places, only the restaurant would have the famous peanut sauce on it. The half shell platter also seemed to have fresher seafood than the stand, maybe coz it's chilled better? Service was great! Our server gave us recommendations and checked on us periodically. We came around 10:30am and was able to get a table outside. (Interesting note: the table was way too high for the chairs lol) Overall wonderful experience and definitely a must-stop for me now whenever I'm in Ensenada again!

It's not hard to find, but unlike so any other options, it's not loud or flashy. We weren't ushered in by some guy on the street promising "the best" of anything. It's small, but clean.. you order at the counter.. my wife and I were the only gringos in there, and we don't speak Spanish. We were quickly presented with a sample plate of all the meats available for their tacos. The wife and I each got a Birria taco and I also got a chicken taco with some of the best Mole sauce I've ever had. They had a table set up in back with all the fixings and salsas you could ask for and the tacos came with beans and rice. We grabbed a bottle of water from the cooler, and the whole meal came to $13 with a tip!!! I mean, that's an unbelievable value for your money. The tacos were incredible. The beans and rice were delicious and the corn tortillas were homemade and some of the best we've ever had. The wife and I often use Yelp! to find places exactly like this, and once again, it did not disappoint. If you're in Ensenada do yourself a favor and skip all the hype spots and go find this place for some amazing food at incredible prices!!

We had the tortilla chips with salsa, and 4 fish tacos which we shared as a party of 3; reasonable price ($2.60 US dollars per taco). As for flavor, it did have a slight fishy flavor (half star off) which tells me that it might not be as fresh, but it was still good and did not make me sick. The serving was definitely smaller than that of a fish taco in California, but it was very filling. For me, the chips were just ok. I do like that along with the salsa, they gave us a crema sauce in a squeeze bottle, red hot sauce, and green hot sauce. As far as if this is my ultimate favorite fish taco place, I would say it is not because Taco Nazo in Bellflower, CA, is still the number one best fish taco for me. However, most fish tacos derive from Ensenada which it is good to pay homage to the original, so if you want a safe solution for a fish taco, then choose Bullos Place and enjoy!
