This was one of my most favorite places in the city. I went back three times in my 9 or 10 days there. Pictured are the ceviche tostadas. The fried leeks took made these things over the top incredible. 25 pesos each
|
The first time I tried to go, we encountered this adorable sign: "To our clients, sorry! We'll be back in 10 days. We went fishing!!!" |
|
It's a small place, a hole in the wall with two tables inside and four tables across the sidewalk. After we ordered at the counter, a waiter brought us our food and cleaned up after us between dishes. |
|
The chef sent us these shrimp soup amuse-bouches! What a classy guy! The soup was spicy, shrimpy and tasty. All of those sauces on the table were guzzle-worthy too, especially the creamy, hint-of-spicy orange one.

The marlin burrito was amazing. This is how burritos should be. Not the ridiculous stuffed American bull shit. All the burritos are 45 to 65 pesos ($3.47-$4.95). |
|
The camaron burrito was incredible too. My friend gave me a bite of his the first time he took me, and I immediately knew I had to come back just to get one for myself. All the burritos come with bacon and some awesome kind of slaw. |

Beautiful horchata |
|
We wound up trying almost everything on the menu, and everything was incredible. All tacos are 10-20 pesos each. |
|
Not to mention beautiful |
|
Even dessert was great: a hazelnut ice cream sandwich! It was so creamy. |
