MARISMA FISH TACO zona romantica

The 25 Best Restaurants in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico | Eater

"The best fish taco in all of Mexico is actually sold out of this 35-year-old daytime-only taco stand. It’s a bold claim, but the elements that make up this “taco de dedo de pescado” back it up: a slightly oversized handmade corn tortilla that’s chewy and buttery on its own, a battered and fried-to-order strip of fresh mahi-mahi, and onions marinated in a Huichol-like salsa. The rest of the toppings are there too, with paper-thin shredded cabbage, salsa Mexicana (the name for pico de gallo-style salsa in Jalisco), guacamole, and as many squiggles of chipotle crema as your heart desires. Make sure to also try the rest of the seafood guisados like salpicón de jaiba (crab guisado), smoked marlin picadillo, and calamar a la diabla. The operation has two locations: a stand in Vallarta’s Zona Romántica and a small shop in the Versalles neighborhood." - Paola Briseño-González
