Honestly didn't expect to be this impressed walking in, place looks low key from outside but the food says otherwise. Went with the langostinos Nayarit style after the waiter talked it up, heavy on garlic and totally worth the hype. Brought wine since it's BYOB, just know there's a limit on how much per person so don't overdo it. Salsa on the table is not playing around, respect it. Solid spot for a seafood night.
looove this place... a few things tho... they do not carry real Crab meat or scallops... still good tho
The fish was excellent! Very fresh! The garlic butter sauce was so delicious! I could have drank it from the bowl. 5 stars!
