This place was bookmarked by my bf as a place to try while in Ensenada. We just had a massage and…read moreour driver dropped us off here. We were told that this was not a tourist spot but a place frequented by locals. The menu was simple, shrimp or fish tacos. They actively fry the food in front of you, so you know it's fresh. Then you have a plethora of toppings and various sauces to dress your tacos. Most people are standing when they're eating. Luckily we scored a table, which is one of three. Ambiance is unassuming, much like many of the street tacos stands in Ensenada. Love the freshness and variety of toppings. Definitely a place to check out when you're in Ensenada.

It's about a quick 15 minute brisk walk from downtown. I preferred the shrimp tacos over the fish, but both really good. The shrimp were a little bit crispy which I loved. The bonus is that you can fix it up however you want. They give various options of toppings including lettuce, radish, and different type of salsas. I would definitely come back to the spot.

We legit can't wait to go back and get more food from here. This spot will definitely be one of our go to places when visiting Ensenada.

We got beef asada and fried fish pescado. I believe it was only $2.50 per taco so not the cheapest but definitely by far the most affordable and yummy in the touristy area. It's a perfect walkable distance from the cruise port. You can pay USD cash and it shows on their payment terminal the conversion. I don't know how to double check if the conversion was 100% accurate but just from a little google go the current conversion and counting out how many tacos we ordered, everything seemed to check out!! They have tables for you to sit at inside but open facing so you're covered from the sun/rain. It comes with 3 different salsas, bowl of limes, and my favorite part is the grilled jalapeño and green onions - omg so good! I'll definitely be coming back if I'm in town. Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the Asada just needed more flavor and not as cooked. I prefer a juicy medium Asada but I know that that's not how it's always eaten, just wish there was more flavor. Coming from Arizona I fortunately get to eat a lot of amazing Mexican food!

Having gone to the famous mariscos street food stand that is La Guerrerense Carreta on a previous…read morevisit to Ensenada, and eating seafood tostadas standing up with my brother in a street alley while having various juices dribbling down my chin, I knew how good the seafood tostadas here could be. But figured I needed a better way to eat it while visiting Ensenada again with my wife. So this time, went to the nearby sister restaurant, Sabina. It's named for the owner of the original food stand, and there are a lot of pictures of her with other celebrities who appreciated her talent in creating seafood combinations. The Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurant is within walking distance from the cruise port, and is located in an area with a lot of other restaurants and shops. We came there soon after it opened around 10 am, and had the choice of indoor or outdoor seating. We showed that we were coming from California, by choosing indoor seating. We were given colorful menus and suggestions. We also got complementary chips and salsa, with 4 different varieties of her famous salsas being served. I tried all four of them, and two of them were way too hot, even in moderation. I did really like the green salsa, which tasted more like a simple guacamole. It also came with thinly slices of lime...each small slice producing so much more juice than any lime we get in California. My wife doesn't like raw seafood, so chose garlic shrimp (Caramones al Mojo de Ajo for Mex$405). There were plenty of jumbo headless, shell-on white shrimp, with the butter sauce being very light and not too garlicky. It came with a very good rice pilaf and sauteed vegetables (mostly squash which neither of us are a fan of). I went with 3 choices from the 5 selection 'Champion' list: 1. Erizo con Almeja (Sea Urchin with Clam for Mex$230) - winner of LA Street Food Fest 2011 for Best Original Showmanship 2. Caracol con Lajas de Caracol (Mixed Ceviche with Sea Snail for Mex$209) - winner of LA Street Food Fest 2012 for Best in Show 3. Singapur (Mex$209) - winner of LA Street Food Fest 2013 for unknown category). All three were piled high with fresh seafood, embellished with perfectly ripe avocado slices. None of them needed additional salsa, but adding a squeeze of lime enhanced. My favorite was the Singapore and would try the other two tostadas on the winners list the next time. The best way would be to order all the tostadas and split amongst a group of 4 or 5 friends (there are 6 other special tostadas and you can also create your own with the fresh seafood ingredients). Got two bottles of water (Mex$75 each...not cheap) and a local beer (Vera Niega Mexican Ale, a bottle being Mex$110) that was excellent. Service was attentive and friendly throughout, with multiple servers (Horacio and Antonio) attending to us, all trying to make sure we had a good time. Credit cards are accepted, using a modern tableside POS, and I was happy to pay a gratuity over what is customary. Bathrooms are modern, with individual stalls (most of them gender neutral) all sharing a nice common set of sinks. My wife and I left in fine spirits and it was beginning to fill up more as we left (all dining al fresco, of course). Dining at the nearby original food cart is worth the initial experience, but there is something to having food this good in a sit-down restaurant. Sabina is that place.

Overall an okay experience…read more Aside from being seated, service was really good. I thought it was strange that it would take 15-20 min for food, especially since most of it was ceviche (is it not already prepared?) Pricing is definitely tourist pricing. We spent $185 for 6 people, about 8 tostadas (which were way bigger than we expected), 3 fish tacos, and 3 drinks. The seafood is definitely fresh and some of the flavors are unique. We ordered about 6 different tostadas and we all ended up liking the fish taco the best. Good for sit down but definitely plan to wait, not ideal for big parties.

I was expecting raw tuna since…read moreI'm used to ceviche having raw fish, but this one was cooked tuna, and had more of a roasted and smoky flavored sauce, rather than fresh citrus juices. It was definitely different than a typical ceviche so I can see why it's popular. They also provide three different chili oil sauces that you can add on top. It wasn't too spicy but definitely added some great flavor. I wish they gave chips instead of one tostada though because I ran out before I finished my ceviche. We finished off the spicy meal with some refreshing cucumber lemonade which definitely hit the spot! There aren't many seats here but luckily we came when it wasn't too busy so we were able to sit right at the bar while they prepared our food.
