    The food here is out of this world! Pork belly and fig was my favorite. Artichoke was so good I could have eaten 4 plates of them! Authentic cocktails too, Mescal old fashioned amazing! Some of the photos look red because we were under a big red umbrella. DO NOT MISS THIS PLACE!

    Love eating here. I've been to two others El Pescador restaurant and mine if them come close to being this good. The food is always great, service and atmosphere are awesome. The food comes too. There is also a bar (club like) with great music going on. Never hung out in there, but the door is usually open and your can hear the music and the people having a good time.

    Exceptional food for a great price. The few times that me and my wife have been, we have not been able to finish what we have ordered. Compared to a lot of other spots out there with the exception of the drinks the food is reasonably priced for what you will get without skimping on the quality. The drinks are about what you expect to pay at other establishments but again these drinks are definitely a cut above the rest. The service is great and pretty quick. We don’t live anywhere close to the area, we’re from the IE and when we find ourselves in the area we stop in to treat ourselves to a great meal with a great atmosphere. Everyone has been friendly and punctual. Make the trip, you won’t be disappointed.

    As soon as we walked in Brenda greeted us with a warm and welcoming demeanor. We told her that we wanted to sit at the bar area. She allowed us to pick our own table. Then she introduced us to our server. Leo. Leo was friendly offered us the daily drink specials and appetizers. Great drinks and excellent service provided by Brenda and Leo. Will definitely be back.
