Octopus tostadas and scallop tacos are the best here. All fresh and authentic. The grilled fish burrito is wonderful (if you don't specify they will have it deep fried) so specify grilled.

Great breakfast and lunch place. Relaxes environment and a nice staff. They bake their own breads. I eat their smoked turkey with brie sandwich once a week.
