The story

About Polas Mariscos

The inspiration

The team keeps the menu small on purpose so the few Mexican-style mariscos they serve are done really well .

Who's behind it

The business is women-owned and family-owned, and Alma B is listed as the owner on the venue's business page .

What to order

Popular dish

Pola's Mix1

the signature combination of ceviche, shrimp, octopus and crab with tomato, onion and cucumber .

  • Ceviche de Camaron or Ceviche de Pescado: shrimp or fish ceviche with tomato, onion and cilantro, a core specialty of the house .1
  • Aguachiles: a spicy raw-shrimp preparation that diners keep naming among their favorites .1
  • Molcajete: shrimp, octopus, crab and caracol served together in the traditional stone dish .

Why you should try it

If you're staying nearby, this is a focused, no-frills seafood counter that does a handful of Mexican mariscos extremely well rather than offering everything . Order a mix, settle in with the family-friendly crowd, and you'll understand why locals keep returning .
