Customer Reviews
Iconic LA restaurant for fresh sea food. Ceviche and aguachiles are special dishes. Also great tostadas and tacos. They have a michelin star, but it’s not pretentious or fancy. It’s counter service, seat yourself in a bustling plaza with other restaurants. Lively crowd and great atmosphere. The food is fantastic.
Absolutely delicious! We had an amazing experience at this Mexican restaurant. The food was full of bold, authentic flavors and perfectly seasoned. The tacos were juicy, the sauces rich, seafood was super tasty. You can really taste the freshness of the ingredients and the care put into every dish. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the service was friendly and attentive. We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone who loves great Mexican sea food! Sea scallops are hit!
100% worth the wait (which wasn’t even that long, arrived at 11:15a and waited 30 min to get seated). A bit tricky to find seating. Highly recommend the fish taco. It’s incredible (and I’m a fish taco expert!) The grilled kanpachi taco is good, fine. The tuna ceviche is SO fresh and well dressed. Also, churros and lemonade were good. But the best part are the hot sauces. They add so much dimension to the tacos. Will definitely be returning and trying other items. Definitely affordable and worth every penny.
Really fresh food! Holbox has been on my list for a long time, and for seafood, I think it's very reasonably priced. It's located in Mercado la Paloma and has free parking. We arrived around 6:30 p.m. on a Saturday, and the line was about 20 minutes long. The mercado was pretty busy, so it was slightly hard to find a good place to sit. However, the service was very fast. The ambiance is casual and lively. We got ceviche mixto, smoked kanpachi tostada, Baja fish taco, taco de pulpo en su tinta, and churros! The ceviche mixto is a must, it was incredibly fresh! I would skip the smoked kanpachi tostada and taco de pulpo on my next visit; I thought they were just okay. The Baja fish taco was amazing, definitely try it! The star of the night was definitely the churros! They were crunchy on the
The food here is simply orgasmic! My son and I bought a diverse selection of dishes and loved every single one! Talk about food coma! Hope we can visit again sometime soon! There was a bit of a wait and line to get in as you’d imagine but it moved along and was worth it! The fact that it’s a food court takes away some of the “fine dining experience” and the interior of the place isn’t fancy at all but the food makes up for it! Pricing also seemed reasonable for the quality and flavor! Not being able to buy liquor (cocktails, beer or wine) also helps keep costs down. Anyway, highly recommend!!
