Absolutely delicious meal, highly recommend you eat here! We were recommended to eat here by another local and it did not disappoint. One of the best ceviche’s I’ve ever had and the guacamole and fish were also delicious.

Absolutely superb restaurant. Recommended by our hotel for the place to go for fresh fish/seafood. Amazing service. Clean. Does not look flash from outside, but as always, looks deceiving - don’t let it put you off! The food was simply incredible. Fresh, tasty and well presented. We had the fillet of fish (catch of the day) and fresh prawns (was told better than octopus by server - really great advice). Lovely complementary starting soup (tomato and fish). We paired mains with guacamole, which was nice and not too crushed. Made a very large meal, would suggest too much usually, but hungry from a long trip, so it all went. Seems all dishes served with tacos and nachos. Had margaritas for drinks which are again, delicious. Thanks for great lunch. We will be back. A hidden gem.

Authentic place to eat fish. Coconut shrimps are great, and other dishes look delicious. Kind people and good service. Everything is clean. Very much value for money. Definitely recommend this place!

One of those places that you shouldn't let the loks fool you. I had the fish tacos and my wife had calamari and guacamole. It all tasted terrific! Our waitress was always close by if we needed anything. The dishes were actually big enough for two, unless you are actually famished. If we have time before we leave we will definately go back.

Fun place. Recommend the cold beers and octopus but the Barracuda is not to be missed! Fried stuffed fish bomb!

I can only recommend it. I was there 3 times out of my 6 day stay. I usually try new restaurants all the time but it was just too good. The staff are super friendly and totally attentive. Totally warm-hearted. The fish and prawns were delicious and fresh. In terms of price, I would consider it ok... It's a bit more expensive but the portions are large and the quality is good. The only thing I would criticize are the opening hours. Unfortunately it's only open until 18:30. But an early dinner is worth it. A must-go if you want to eat fish.
