A new favorite seafood joint of mine.
The have a small menu and a daily special that changes every now and then.
They have mezcal too! But no liquor license. #Wtf
When I first heard about this place, there was one dish I really wanted to try - The Cauliflower Tostada. Yup, a raw, shaved, marinated cauliflower tostada. And guess what? It worked! Here, the veggie acted much like tofu in that it served as a blank canvas for the citrus marinade. All the while, retaining a crunchy texture and holding on ever so slightly to its inherent flavor, this tostada was a winner in my book. However, for an extra $1, order a...
...Seafood Tostada. It's the better value of the two and the seafood is really fresh. As much as I liked their Tostada Mixta (scallop & shrimp), my favorite was their special of the day.
This day, their special was a mixta tostada as the base with added octopus, cucumber, and special sauce. On the side, a habanero pineapple puree. Dope!
Speaking of sauces, they have some vinegar based ones you can help yourself to.
The only dish I wouldn't recommend is their coctel. It wasn't bad. It just paled in comparison and there are dozens of places around town that make better ones. I thought theirs was pedestrian.
What wasn't pedestrian, however, were their tacos. Particularly so, their shrimp tacos. On a freshly made hand-made tortilla, no less!
Almost as good, their fish tacos. But seriously get the shrimp taco and tostada mixta or special of the day. Start there, by all means. I highly recommend this place.
