    Erizo / sea urchin
    Beatrice V.

    This place continues to be one of my favorites. I took some family who were visiting from out of town today and they were so happy with the meal! We got our favorites... the live sea urchin and the ceviche de atun. The ceviche is a showstopper, everyone loved it. This time we got the whole sea bass entree (pescada à la brasa), two pulpo tacos, and the shrimp aguachile. I loved the shrimp aguachile, the fried prawn heads are so crispy and tasty. The sea bass entree was good and had a beautiful presentation, it was also nice for sharing, but the number of bones to pick out was a little annoying. That's what you get with ordering a full fish though! Not their fault. The pulpo tacos were tasty too, I love their handmade blue tortillas. But probably my least favorite of the bunch. Get the ceviche de atun! The aguachile was bomb too. And the live sea urchin is always good.

    I have been stalking this restaurant on Instagram for the past year. We finally had a chance to go on a Saturday afternoon and now my satisfaction has been satisfied. The place is like a food hall. It's loud, seats are limited, but the line does move quick. If there are no seats at the counter, you can always find a seat anywhere, but you better order enough because it is difficult to get back in line to order something else. The food is nothing short of amazing. The staff here worked very hard and you can tell they care about what they put out. They made a really good recommendations, I got the Kopache smoked yellowtail, which is my favorite dish so far, I also got the yellowtail ceviche, the scallops. I would probably pass on next time, although it was very fresh. It had a very distinct zesty taste a little strong on the lime. Also got the sea urchin, which is fresh and flavorful, and two orders of the churro because we had to take one home it was that good. I can't wait to come back and try their hot foods next time. We were too full with what was already on our menu. In total about $117 including tip.

    Line was long when we pulled up on a Thursday for lunch. Parked in the small lot - but not a lot of parking available. We got lucky. Waited in the 20 minute line and ordered a whole lot of everything so we could try everything. Everything was delicious. The guacamole - really well seasoned - preferred the regular tortilla chips vs the really crunchy other thing it came with. It almost broke my tooth trying to bite through it. LOL. LOVED the mixto ceviche, the octopus taco and the uni & scallop ceviche.. Loved the entire market it sat in and will definitely be back to try more. I would pass on the Baja fish taco next time.

    Still wonderful after all these years! I finally tried something different as well as ordering old favorites like the octopus, fried fish and shrimp tacos. The gambas were amazing! I don't know how they made this incredible sauce that I could have literally eaten with a spoon. Perfectly barely cooked gambas, with plenty of head juices and sides!

    Everything we ordered was bomb! I have to come back again. My favorite was the scallop ceviche.

    I drove 35 minutes from South Bay, then waited in line for 40 minutes to sit at a table. The novelty of trying many seafood options, with chefs constantly curating new menus, is great. It's manageable to have a satisfying solo experience by ordering smaller items, though I regret not ordering a ceviche or entree. The wait made me want to try more variety. Favorite to least favorite from this visit: Kanpachi Tostada - Baja Fish Taco - Grouper Tostada - Baja Shrimp - Fat Bastard Oysters. Their staff is very helpful breaking down the menu, which I greatly appreciate. You're in good hands!

    We went 5pm on a Thursday and there was barely a wait! Always love the sparkling lemonade. - Rockfish collars 2.2/5 The fish itself is pretty salty- tastes like the sea. They over salt the batter so the whole dish is salty. They also over fried it so it's not soft or tender. It's chewy. - Fried fish taco 5/5 MMMMM. Yes! Definitely the best thing here. The fish is crunchy and tender and flakey on the inside. A very very delicious taco. [RECOMMEND] - Tuna Ceviche 4.7/5 A very fresh tasting dish. It's delicious, definitely needs more lime. - Grilled Branzino 4.5/5 The fish was very tender and had a Smokey taste from the grill. It was very yummy! - octopus taco 2.1/5 It's not as mindblowing as eating the octopus entree one. Fish tacos are better. - Cheesecake 1/5 We waited for 50 minutes for A SLIVER of mediocre cheesecake. AVOID. Free street parking

    Finally got a chance to get to Holbox to checkout their seafood tacos. Luckily the line wasn't too long and the order process was fast and the delivery was fairly quick. I ordered the Octopus and scallops tacos which were tasty. The scallops were a little bit tiny but they were still good. My friend got the shrimp and fish tacos and she was happy and enjoyed her tacos. I originally thought it was the only business there but there were many other businesses on the premise. They have a tiny parking lot and you pay $2.29 per hour to park. You scan a QR code and you pay for parking there. After you place your food order, they give you a number and you go have a seat and someone delivers your food to you. Each taco is pretty expensive but you definitely get quality and it's good to try at least once.

    A long wait, but well worth the price. This spot has to be one of the best spots in LA. Their tacos were so so good. We tried all of them and all of them were fantastic. We also got their ceviche and it was even better. Really enjoyed the different hot salsa options as well. The tostada was a great crunch and another great option. Def a must try! The line goes by at a good pace.

    Definitely get some guac for your wait!

    I got lucky. Drove in and found a parking right near the entrance. My mom met me there so I didn't have to wait in line as she already had seats for us. Had some tacos and my mom had fish. Don't remember the name but will post pictures. Fresh seafood. Nice presentation. Welcoming and friendly service that makes you feel like they know you. Overall had a cool experience and the wait was worth it.

    Been here about 5 times and it never disappoints! Love the ahi tostadas and the tacos, the amount of fish given is always a ton. Loved the shrimp platter but enjoyed the tacos more. Service is always so helpful and kind and even with lines there is always seating getting prepped for customers. I've never tried the surrounding restaurants as we always leave so full and happy! Parking isn't bad as they have a lot in front of them. Go try if you haven't!

    Currently sitting after i just inhaled everything. But so so so so so incredibly good. The ceviche de atun (bluefin tuna) was my favorite item we had. The tostada was AMAZINGLY crunchy but maintained its integrity whenever you break/bite it (it dint just crackle off and break how it wants) The fish is so so so fresh and light and the flavors of everything mixed in is amazing. My next fave thing was the yellowtail because of the chili oil thing they put on top. It really tied everything together (and again the tostada kept its crunchiness and integrity throughout the entire meal). Holy flavor burst. Next is the Baja fish taco, which tops my #1 (taco nazo). The batter & tenderness of fist is what i look for the most in a fish taco and this place did not disappoint. The batter was not oily at all and extremely airy, but not EXTREMELY crunchy (but that's okay). The kanpachi taco was also really solid. The fish was cooked perfectly and i love all the toppings that it came with. My least favorite (don't get me wrong, it was still REALLY good) was the octopus taco which was solid. It was really good, im just not the biggest fan of octopus in general. Overall, i think everything on their menu is well versed and crafted to perfection flavor wise. The price is solid for a place w a Michelin star and i like how home-y it feels, being in a food court. I will most definitely be back (we waited 1 hour, but i would wait longer). Slightly exceeded my extremely high expectations for this place. Servers were also extremely helpful and kind.

    En route from the San Francisco Bay area to Orange County, I stopped by Holbox around 3:30p on a weekday to find that parking is a challenge and there was a short line to order food, but I was expecting all that and was intent on eating here. Here's what I ordered: Octopus Taco Baja Fish Taco Scallop and Shrimp Ceviche Hamachi Collar Sopa de Mariscos (Seafood Soup) As I had expected, the food was presented well and the fish tasted fresh. Honestly, I was expecting leftovers, but my partner and I ate more than we should have and finished off the whole thing. When we left Holbox, there was an even longer line than the one we waited in.

    No reservations needed.You will stand in line to place order.They bring your food to you wherever you sit in that Mercado/food hall.Tip:Bypass the line and sit in counter at Holbox if it's available.

    Best time to eat on a Sunday if I don't want a long line?

    It seems to always have a long line

    What is the wait time like around 12 or 12:30 on a Thursday for lunch?

    We went around that time.. few weeks ago the wait wasnt that bad. Maybe 15 mins?

    What's the wait like if you're going on a Saturday 30 min before opening?

    We visited this restaurant on a Sunday afternoon and found a long line, but it wasn't at all overwhelming. The staff was busy efficiently letting everyone in. Trust me, it was worth the wait! Just make sure you're hungry before you come.

    How long is a typical wait time for 2 people on a Friday night around 7ish?

    It depends.. if you get there early or just before it opens, then it's quick. If you show up during prime time like lunch or dinner, it will be 30 to 40 minutes. The line moves fairly quickly, but there's a ton of people.. And sometimes, you'll get… Read more

    What if you want to go here with a group ? could a group of say 4-8 find a table?

    Yes but tables do fill up fast especially since there are other restaurants in the same food hall

    Are dogs allowed in the outdoor seating area?

    I don't believe there is outdoor seating anymore.

    Does the inside have central air conditioning (HVAC) and/or air purifier(s) to filter indoor air?

    It's a food court with good ventilation (AC). The food court has a wide entry way. So I don't think the air is filtered

    When are the least busy days/times to go to Holbox?

    Best time is arround 3pm on Tuesday or Wednesday... No trouble finding parking and little to no line.

    Good for kids?

    For seating, it depends on the age of your kids & if they can stay in their seats. They have bar counter seating and a some 4 seat tables. Since it's in a food market hall, it's not "closed off" like a restaurant so if the kids don't stay in their… Read more

    Do they serve alcohol drinks?

    No alcohol

    No- the restaurant is in a food court- walk ins only

    Yes

    Hi Mike, we absolutely can.

    Will the tasting menu become available on Saturdays in the near future?

    I’m not sure. Not for now. Sorry

    Do you have to have reservations to eat here on a Saturday night?

    We actually don’t take reservations. Super casual, order-at-the-counter service in a food hall setting.

    Do they really have outdoor seating?

    We do, but it's not heated and tends to get cold for dinner. For lunch it is great.

I ordered the asada burrito and the pollo caramelo and added the grilled poblano (as recommended on Yelp!). The tortillas were the true stars -- soft, nice chew, with a buttery mouth feel (probably lard). The fillings were just ok. The inside reminded me of a Taco Bell 7 layer burrito -- a lot going on but all the flavors kinda blend together. I (incorrectly) thought the beans were refried, but they are not. Whatever is going on inside, I didn't find much structure. The burrito was the best. The caramelo was a lazily folded burrito. I read that it was like a quesadilla, but I couldn't disagree more. I would skip this next time. I spent $25 and it was a lot of food, but I wasn't impressed, especially given the hype and the fact that LA should really be the pinnacle of Mexican food. Not sure if I'll make a second trip here.

The whipped beans are the star! We had the guacamole which was tasty, great tostadas with it. The arepas were good but the pork belly was a little too fatty (I know pork belly is always fatty) to the point the fat muted the flavored for the arepa a bit, but still delicious.

They have recently amped up the filling in the delicious crispy squash blossoms and I love the acidity and heat. The fish is also a hit in my books. One dish that doesn't work for me is the lamb chops, which is a shame since it's my favorite protein. I've ordered them multiple times with clear instructions on temperature and have found them overcooked and tough. The beef tostada was just ok. Whilst I loved the pickled veg on the side, the beef was underseasoned. It wasn't bad - just not up to the standard of other dishes. The vibe in the place is welcoming and the restaurant is nicely appointed. We will continue to be regulars and it's really worth trying if you haven't been yet.

One of the reasons I recommended Mirate is because it's known for being a highly rated modern Mexican restaurant with exceptional service and knowledgeable staff, especially when it comes to tequila and mezcal. Unfortunately, that was not my experience at all. Before ordering food, I asked our server about the differences between the mezcals and which flight they would recommend. The only explanation I received was, "It's just different families, so I'd go with the higher quality one." There was no real information or guidance, and it was obvious they didn't know much about the mezcal selection. I ended up choosing one based solely on what sounded best. We were then informed that the menu had recently changed and is now mostly tapas. That's perfectly fine, but I noticed several items from my previous visit were still available, so I figured I'd order a few favorites along with some new dishes. Most of the food was actually great. The ribeye tacos, tostada, and buñuelitos were all delicious. However, the carne asada was extremely disappointing. We only sent back one plate because I felt bad sending both, and that's when a manager (the gentleman with the man bun) came over. He explained that they have a new chef from Oaxaca, but what confused me was that they were serving Argentinian-style steaks as their carne asada. Instead of a traditional Mexican-style cut, it was thin, flat, and honestly looked like a breakfast steak. For a restaurant that prides itself on being a modern Mexican restaurant, serving Argentinian steak as carne asada just didn't make sense to me. To his credit, he removed both carne asada plates from our bill, which I genuinely appreciated. After that, he asked if there was anything else we'd like. I personally said no, but someone else at the table asked for one more ribeye taco. The manager replied, "You know what? I'll bring you one, and I'll bring them another too." Naturally, I assumed he was offering the extra taco as a goodwill gesture since I hadn't ordered anything else. Imagine my surprise when I looked at the bill and realized both tacos had been added to our tab. I wasn't going to argue over the price of a taco, but it was frustrating because I never asked for it. In fact, I ended up giving that taco away to my friends. If it wasn't complimentary, it shouldn't have been presented as if it were. Another thing worth mentioning is that while the carne asada portion has clearly gotten much smaller, the price remains exactly the same, which doesn't seem justified. Overall, my biggest disappointment is that there was no indication when making the reservation that this was essentially an experimental period with a new chef introducing major menu changes. Had I known beforehand, I never would have recommended Mirate for our dinner, and to be completely honest, I probably wouldn't have made a reservation at all. I only get two days off each month, so this was supposed to be something I could really enjoy. Instead, it honestly felt like a waste of my time and money. I'm sorry to say that while there were a few good moments, they faded very quickly. Unfortunately, the negative parts are what have stayed with me, and that's what I'll remember most about the experience. It's disappointing because I know how great Mirate can be since I experienced it just a few weeks ago. I truly hope they can regain the quality of food, service, and overall experience that made me recommend it in the first place . ( for the picture of the flat carne asada the full steak has 2 more strips added but we had tried it before taking a picture however that's MOST of the "carne asada" portion in the picture )

    Oh man. This was SO FREAKING GOOD. I have had good Mexican food, but never in my life have I had…read morebetter vegetarian tacos. Never. And I live in Portland, which has really good vegetarian options. First of all, I could eat like 75% or more of the menu as a pescatarian. I was thrilled and so overwhelmed because I normally don't have that many choices! First of all, the water was infused and was delicious. I browsed the menu and had a really hard time deciding, but ended up on the cauliflower rajas taco, the crispy shrimp taco & the vegan Korean BBQ taco. The waiter recommended the crispy shrimp taco, but I actually enjoyed the vegetarian tacos more. I love cauliflower and poblano so that taco was a great starter. So much flavor and a variety of textures. The tortillas were super flavorful too. The potato taquitos came next and I am actually obsessed. The outside was perfectly crispy, the interior was soft, flavorful & cheesy. The sauce complimented it perfectly. I can not recommend them enough. The crispy shrimp taco was really good, but I also tried a crispy fish taco and would honestly get that over the shrimp. I think there was mango or something in the coleslaw of the fish taco because it had a really nice fresh flavor to it. Last, I had the vegan Korean BBQ taco. The mushroom shreds & the flavor were just perfect. Again, as a pescatarian I have really never had Korean BBQ because it's so heavily meat focused. I truly loved this taco. If I hadn't discovered it on my last night in LA, I might've come back on my short trip. The whole place is just a vibe and the food was beyond excellent.

The building is an original piece of the City's history, boasting a menu that features their famous burritos that vary in size from a regular to a huge party size beast that can feed several. I tried the Hollenbeck and the Okie burritos on two separate occasions via pick up, as aforementioned, the service was quick, convenient and the pick up window is seamless, parking is located next to the structure and I haven't had problems getting there. Hollenbeck was good but I definitely enjoyed the Okie burrito more, I ordered the "original" size once and didn't seem to learn my lesson the second time, these burritos can feed two in Original size. They offer a "Mini" version which would be satisfactory for one person. My favorite thing about these burritos is how "home-made" they are, the salsas and meats are fresh and taste like they came out of an abuelitas kitchen. I still need to try the crunchy tacos and nachos which look great, I recommend trying this classic establishment at least once if you're in the area.
