4.5 / 5.0(6,289 reviews)
Ordered 2 tuna uni toastada, ceviche, green clam soup, raw shrimps, hibiscus juice, sparkling water. Tuna uni toastada was very good. Tasted a bit like a Japanese food. Ceviche was our favourite, very fresh, they said the seafood arrived today. Green clam soup was also good but I tasted some dirt / grit, maybe the clams weren’t cleaned thoroughly. The raw shrimps were big but tasted just ok (this one we regret ordering it). Hibiscus juice was good, very refreshing. Staff were very friendly. It’s a bit noisy but you can still talk and has a good atmosphere. The total came to around mx $2200 for two people. We had a 7pm reservation and were seated on time. They only had a QR code menu, which was tricky since we didn’t have internet, but they gave us a paper one when we asked. The food was delicious and the cocktails were great, but the service felt rushed — we were done in about 30 minutes. The restaurant is lively but very loud and tightly packed, more canteen-style than relaxed dining. Great food, but not the most comfortable experience. I can understand why this place is always packed. Good fresh seafood and amazing service. We had seafood soup, tuna tostadas, octopus and potatoes and the half and half sauced dish. All were delicious. Would definetely go there again if I visit CDMX again.

Food is absolutely fantastic. We had the tuna tostada, garlic shrimp, deep fried quesadillas, and seared tuna loin. Everything was excellent. Service was very attentive too. Most of the people who come here are tourists, and price is quite expensive — but the food lives up to the hype.

Without doubt a great seafood restaurant with an ample variety of selections all with a local version. We went without a reservation and was seated for a pre-set timing, we had to leave right on time, so we couldn’t enjoy their desserts. The staff is extremely friendly and make you feel welcomed. Next time I would get a reservation so we can stay a bit longer and enjoy all of their offerings.
