Caracol de Mar

Caracol de Mar has a prime position in the city center near the Metropolitan Cathedral, but the location isn't the only reason this spot stands out from the crowd. This seafood-focused restaurant mixes Mexican culinary knowledge with touches of Peruvian cuisine, and the moderate prices are a boon in an area not known for being wallet friendly. Begin with aguachile de camarón, a deliciously fresh dish that is as beautiful as it is refreshing. Pulpo al carbón de olote is a well-prepared plate with good flavor and a delightful smoky note. To finish, the passion fruit granita, if offered, is as simple as it is delicious.
