OUR FOOD
Carefully prepared to our traditions and served to please your eye before you taste.
ZARANDEADO FISH
A true taste of Nayarit, our whole zarandeado robalo is grilled to perfection and served with beans, fresh cucumber salad, and handmade tortillas. This traditional preparation is our most popular dish—full of flavor, authenticity, and perfect for sharing. Served on a large platter, it’s a showstopper at every table.
CEVICHE & SEAFOOD
Seafood is at the heart of what we do. We offer a variety of fresh, flavorful ceviches—more than five unique styles to choose from. Our charbroiled octopus is another standout: tender, smoky, and one of the most loved items on our menu. Whether you're a ceviche enthusiast or trying something new, you’ll find a favorite here.
CRAFTED TACOS
Our tacos go beyond the basics. From our gobernador tacos filled with shrimp or smoked marlin, to Ensenada-style beer-battered fish and shrimp, each taco is layered with bold flavors. We also serve rich and cheesy kesabirria, and a fan-favorite: bacon-wrapped shrimp stuffed with smoked marlin. Every taco is a culinary experience.
OUR DRINKS
Crafted with fresh ingredients and bold flavors.
SIGNATURE COCKTAILS
Our cocktails are as beautiful as they are refreshing. Made with fresh fruit, vibrant ingredients, and eye-catching garnishes like dehydrated citrus and edible flowers, each drink is crafted with care and creativity. These are not just drinks—they’re an experience
MARGARITAS, MEZCALITOS & MIHCELADAS
From classic to creative, we pour it all. Whether you're craving a perfectly balanced margarita, a smoky mezcalito, or a bold michelada, each one is treated with the same attention to detail as our signature cocktails. Flavorful, fun, and unforgettable.
FULL BAR SELECTION
We’re serious about spirits. Our full bar features a thoughtfully curated selection of tequila, mezcal, and whisky—ideal for sipping straight or mixing into your favorite drink. Whether you're a connoisseur or just exploring, there’s something for everyone.
