Mariscos Bahía De Ensenada

Mariscos Bahia de Ensenada es un gran restaurante de mariscos bien establecido en el centro de Ensenada. Tienen buen aparcamiento, servicio excelente, y un montón de artículos en el menú para complacer a cualquiera. Estuve allí el domingo por la tarde, y había mariachis haciendo rondas para cantar canciones solicitadas para aquellos que lo querían (para un consejo). De tacos, tostadas, ceviche, pescado entero, filetes, servido frito, paneado, a la parrilla, ajo (al mojo de ajo), etc. Elegí un pez de cabrillo frito que era delicioso. El restaurante es familiar, ofrece sillas altas, con bonita decoración con acuarios. Ofrecen refrescos, limonada y varias aguas frescas, así como un bar completo. El servicio era excelente, eficiente y amigable. Los precios son razonables y mucho menos que lo que pagaría en los Estados Unidos. ¡Lo recomiendo!

Estábamos en un crucero y este restaurante nos fue referido en los lugares súper turísticos y no decepcionó. Parecía tener muchos regulares/locals cenando en los que siempre tomo como una señal fuerte. Nos sentamos afuera y pedimos algunos chips/salsa. Los precios del menú están en pesos, así que mientras cobran por fichas los precios fueron nominales y la salsa fue excelente! Había cuatro adultos y dos niños en nuestra fiesta. Dos de nosotros ordenamos las placas de langosta Puerto Nuevo (amazing), uno de nosotros un trío de los tacos del gobernador de camarones, uno de nosotros el Campechana (WOW) y los niños tenían un cóctel medio de camarones que era enorme y una quesadilla. También pedimos algunos Ceviche para la mesa que era excelente y suficiente para que todos compartiéramos. La comida era súper fresca y bien preparada y sabrosa. Pedimos un lado de la chimenea y te avisaremos que son HOT. Tres de nosotros tenemos una tolerancia súper alta para la comida picante y nuestras bocas fueron voladas. También bebimos seis cervezas, un par de limonadas. Todo este alimento/bebierto con 20% de propina salió a $200 USD que fue increíblemente razonable considerando los 2 platos de langosta y todos los mariscos. They DO take credit cards, not sure what the review was about where they do not.

Saturday, 12/31/2022, NYE dinner. Upon entry, my wife and I noticed quite a few patrons on the first floor. We asked to sit upstairs and were happy to see we were the first ones to sit there. They had multiple aquariums for maximum relaxation. Our waiter took our order quickly and then we didn't see him for about 20 minutes. For an appetizer we ordered the Chiles Gueritos Rellenos de atun ahumado for $110 pesos $5.75). This appetizer came with three large, bacon wrapped chiles, stuffed with smoked tuna and cheese. They were delicious especially the smoked tuna), but I would have preferred they peeled the hard outer skin of the chile after grilling it. We ordered 2 Margaritas on the rocks to drink for $95 pesos $5) each. These turned out to be watered down and essentially bland. For our main dish we ordered the Mariscada al Grill for 2 people for $565 pesos $29.51). This included: filete sarandeado, 2 tacos gobernador 1 shrimp and 1 smoked tuna), taco de frijol con queso, and 2 conchas de almeja gratinada Especial. The best part of this was the Filete Sarandeado. It had great flavor, and the fish was moist. The tacos were quite heavy and the tortillas too thick for my liking. This restaurant was recommended by a local and the food was reasonably priced but too heavy compared to the light, refreshing seafood we ate in Puerto Nuevo. The service was a bit slow, but that might have been due to the fact that we decided to sit upstairs?

Food: First off, the molcajete is enough for two people... just wanting to start out with that. The surf and turf version was very good and the broth was a bit spicy, but very flavorful. I've never had one before so this was a great experience! Also, like my wife always says, if the salsa is good then the food can be made good! Their salsa was fresh and delicious. Atmosphere: Okay so it's kind of loud inside when they have the Mariachi band playing. Don't get me wrong, it's Mexico and I think having the band come in and play at your table is awesome, but it makes it difficult to do any talking while they are playing. I loved the music, I just wish it could be a tad bit quieter. But still, if it's only for 10-15 minutes, it's pretty cool. Price: Very reasonable, most items were 15$ or less. I mean, it's Mexico so some stuff is going to be cheaper just because of that. But it was delicious too. Service: Our server was great, no complaints. Reminds me of France though. We waited for our check for like 20 minutes, they were not in a rush to kick us out. I guess we should have bought more food...? Overall: I'll come back to try the shrimp ceviche, it looked really good. Awesome experience, though the music was a bit loud and our server never really came back to check on us at all. Still, solid food and nice, well lit place. Great for families!

If you're in Ensenada, you have to go here to have sea food. It was amazing and very decently priced. Clean place. Clean restroom and parking is available in the rear. The service was great. Will def be back here again.
