    Soft Shell Crab taco
    Abraham A.

    We happened to stumble across this spot while walking through Palanco. The ambiance and decor grabbed our attention, very hip upscale vibe. All our dishes were great. We started with Soft Shell crab & Shrimp tacos. They were the very best tacos we had on our whole trip, my girlfriend took it to another level and said in her LIFE. I had to agree after a short pause to reflect. For entree we shared the large portion of the Octopus Zarandeado style. It was very tender and tasty. The last to mention was the incredibly attentive service. Jose, Oswaldo & Alexis had taken care of us. They were a great team. In the end, we both HIGHLY RECOMMEND this spot.

    Get your seafood fix in the beautiful Polanco, friendly service staff all around, casual nautical vibe, big place with plenty of nice outdoor seating, fantastic food and cocktails, minus 1 star for having the most obnoxious chain smokers day next to us! From the perfect complimentary warm bread and butter, the tasty cocktails, well crafted tacos, fish plate, to the very special giant clams, everything was all so yummy! Sitting outdoors was so nice, other than having to ensure the constant smoke...

    This was our second time dining at Campomar - it's conveniently located near a number of hotels in the Polanco neighborhood. The first time we dined here we were wowed by the service and the food - fresh seafood at a reasonable price, nice cocktails, solicitous wait staff. Last night was the opposite in every way: horrible service (we struggled to get refills of any beverage), no coursing out of the food (everything arrived at the exact same time at the table - appetizers, entrees, everything - there was no room at the tiny table for the majority of the food), pushy sommeliers constantly trying to upsell random bottles/glasses of wine, and last but not least: the way they dealt with the RAW whole fish that was brought to the table. After explaining that the fish was uncooked on the interior (we had to hold a phone flashlight up and explain repeatedly), they took it away and spent another 60 minutes RECOOKING the daylights out of the wafer thin fillets. This resulted in a fish that was too dry to eat when they brought it back. No effort was made to apologize, to offer any comps, to determine whether we were okay with the recooked fish (that we obviously didn't touch). Really disappointing. That being said, on the food front the other items that we ordered were lackluster as well (pulpo was tiny and over-braised/mushy; tacos were crammed with more cheese than shrimp; shrimp consommé, while tasty, was wayyyy over salted). I don't think we'll be going back. There are too many other, better seafood options in CDMX.

    In the middle of a busy area this restaurant is like a quiet oasis. They have plants all around which help keep the noise down. The food and service amazing!!!!

    We loved this place so much that we went twice. It's a beautiful setting with great service and amazing food with reasonable prices. $24 US dollars for the Crab and Mojo sauce with 3 nice size crabs! I suggest making a reservation as it was busy even on a Tuesday night.

    The service is some of the best service I've experienced. All the staff was super friendly and attentive and helpful. Our waiter Mendoza was a jewel and so was his companion. Seriously nice and helpful! The ambiance is great, very welcoming and relaxed, you just want to hang out for a long time enjoying your food and the ambiance and the people watching. And the food is just heavenly. Perfectly seasoned and with very generous portions. We ordered a ceviche to start thinking we'd get the meager portions you get in the US and the plate was huge and delicious.

    Strawberry Marg, amazing

    This place was so fun and the food was amazing. The food was beautiful and the seafood was all so fresh. We loved the ceviche and tuna carpaccio the most. Definitely get some flavored margs too. If this place existed in LA it would definitely be the next hot spot

    We stopped by here for relatively late dinner at 9pm on a Saturday night. We were staying at a…read morenearby hotel and this restaurant was only a couple blocks away. We had the small octopus cocktail, grilled vegetables, spicy fish tacos, and soft shell crab tacos - that was plenty of food for the two of us. We were the only Americans there, but it was pretty obvious that we weren't locals so they gave us the English menus and our waiter spoke excellent English. The grilled vegetables consisted of marinated portobello mushrooms, green beans, and a carrot. The mushrooms were quite tasty. The octopus cocktail was very refreshing and the spicy fish tacos were pretty good too. We finished the meal with a corn bread dessert (much sweeter than American cornbread) and flan. Both were very good.

    This little unsuspecting gem will be a delightful treat for those who like seafood and are in the…read morearea for lunch. Cozy with great service, we enjoyed a nice shrimp broth aperitif (caldo de camarón), ahí tuna tostadas worth caramelized onions and crispy leeks, and grilled octopus. With two glasses of wine, each person paid $25usd including tip (roughly). They also bring you a table-side display of the catch of the day and everything seemed fresh and amazing, with delicious sounding ways to cook them (branzino, or lemon caper sauce, etc.)
