El Godinazo Centro Botanero

Eating at this restaurant was a different experience. As you consume drinks, they will bring you a variety of see food plates. They start you off with a crawl fish (shrimp) soup. It was spicy but delicious. The drinks pertain to what dish will be brought out to you. There are a great number of drinks to choose from. From sodas to beer to hard liquid. This concept I've seen in the coastal states in Mexico like Colima and Nayarit. I felt transported with its food and atmosphere. On Friday's the have a 14-piece banda that provides the live environment at 8pm. The owner is a friendly host who will come to your table to make sure you are taken care of. The food is as authentic as the coastal Mexican you will find in Fresno. Give a chance, and I think you will be pleasantly surprised.

Go happy happy hour and stack up on beer lol life hack

Food needs better flavoring. No freshness in the food. Located in the ghetto part of town, won't go back unless they hire a couple security guards

Seafood with a lot of flavor from the shrimp soup(very spicy) to their fried 🐠 bites and habanero dip very exotic and delicious

The food was good. But I gave them 4 stars because the menu was small not much to choose from. But I'll be coming back again soon.

It was my first time trying this place the service was great and the food was delicious.

Happen to be in fresno and stumbled upon on this restaurant. The place is really nice and clean. Service was awesome. And the food was amazing. Try the camarones al godinazo and cold pacifico. Definitely worth making a trip back to fresno just to eat.

They do a "botanero Nayarita" style bar here, which means that as long as you keep buying drinks, they'll keep bringing the seafood-based snacks. Enjoy your favorite Mexican beers while you eat shrimp and veggie soup, fried fish "rinds" (chicharron de pescado—it's just breaded fried fish) served with 1 of 2 house sauces, fish and crab ceviche (most likely imitation crab), and a few other paid orders not included with the beer. Paid orders include fried whole fish (a fish called Mojarra in Mexico), shrimp ceviche, and something else I can't recall. Pretty authentic, and It makes me think of my parents hometown and state in Mexico. I only wish it was as delicious and varied as it is out there, although still good. Some aguachiles even as a paid order would be VERY welcome in my book, as they're not offered here! Bottom line: if you're looking to drink at a Mexican/Nayarita style bar with some seafood snacks and some ambiance to go along with it, come here. Just leave the whooping and yelping at home, cause they'll kick you out lol it's a "family friendly" place. Children ARE allowed. Take that as you will.
