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.
