The fish and shrimp tacos at this upscale Mexican restaurant are very delicious. The fish is in large, tender pieces, and the shrimp has a rich texture, with a sauce that is perfectly sweet and sour. The lobster taco is a bit disappointing because there isn't enough lobster meat and it isn't very substantial.
The restaurant takes a high-end approach, with elegant decor and a pleasant atmosphere, making it suitable for enjoying gourmet Mexican cuisine.
The service is very attentive. Despite arriving early, they quickly arranged seating, and the staff was warm and friendly.
This restaurant is actually somewhat famous in California.. After all, Mexican cuisine originally started as street food, and gradually evolved into restaurants 🍴, and this particular restaurant is a more upscale Mexican dining experience. Aside from this place, I also visited their branch in Los Angeles last time, which is located directly inside a luxury hotel 🏨— one can imagine they are moving towards a more upscale route!
The service is indeed commendable. I actually arrived much earlier than expected today, but they did their best to arrange seating for us. As is customary, we ordered tacos. Today we tried three different flavors of tacos:
❤️ Baja fish 🎣
This is something I always love to order when I come here because the fish is in large chunks— with one bite you can have a mouthful of fish meat, which is my favorite aspect. It tastes a lot like McDonald’s double Filet-O-Fish 🍟 but in a different shape and presented in a healthier, tastier way with better salad 🥗 and avocado 🥑.
❤️ shrimp 🦐
The shrimp taco is also a flavor I really enjoy. The shrimp itself is very firm, resembling the kind of Thai shrimp. The sauce on the outside is tart and sweet, somewhat like Korean pickled vegetables but with a bit of spice 🌶️— it’s a wonderfully well-combined flavor. Because the shrimp’s outer skin is slightly crispy, the texture is very rich!
❤️ lobster 🦞
As for the lobster, I was a little disappointed. I had never tried this flavor before, and after tasting it today, I think it’s better not to order it in the future.. The lobster part was too small overall, and almost all I got were small bits of fried meat. It was not at all what I expected in terms of enjoying a full lobster. Although it looks quite luxurious, compared to the fish and shrimp, it feels too empty, like I didn’t eat anything! It doesn't seem worth being the most expensive taco on the menu.
This is my second time at this restaurant. Although it’s a different branch, the quality is consistently maintained to a certain extent. Personally, I still quite recommend it, especially their cocktails 🍸, which are also very good. I hope those coming to California can give it a try!
