Details
THE RESTAURANT
• A Roma Norte seafood spot built around a long, leisurely lunch.
• The menu spans tostadas, ceviches, tacos and whole grilled fish.
• Seafood is seasonal, so dishes can change with availability.
TOP ORDERS TO CONSIDER
• Tuna tostadas - the clearest bright spot in our checked visits; tuna, chipotle mayo, leeks and avocado.
• Pescado a la talla, Contramar style - whole grilled fish with half red adobo and half parsley rub.
• Fish or shrimp tacos estilo Ensenada - a battered option if that’s more your style.
• Start with the tostadas; the other suggestions are menu options, not a promise every dish will be a hit.
THINK TWICE
• Whole fish is priced by weight - confirm the size and total before ordering.
THE DANG VERDICT
• Mixed reviews and higher prices make this one to weigh against your budget and itinerary.
• Plan ahead and reserve a table before you go.
• Consider their sister restaurant, Entremar, for a similar menu, potentially easier reservations and more flexibility.
