Fisher’s Roma is a fantastic spot in Mexico City for those seeking authentic Mexican flavors and a truly local dining experience. Known as a neighborhood favorite, this restaurant delivers delicious seafood dishes with a casual, welcoming vibe that’s perfect for lunch or dinner.
To kick off the meal, every guest is served a comforting fish soup—a nostalgic touch that reminded me of a similar experience at a Mexican restaurant in San Diego. The star of the menu for us was the fish taco, elevated by their house special sauce that added an irresistible burst of flavor. Another standout was the grilled octopus, perfectly charred and seasoned, showcasing the skillful preparation that defines this restaurant.
One of Fisher’s charming quirks is serving beer in a duck-shaped boat, a playful signature that adds character to the experience. Despite the language barrier (the staff primarily speaks Spanish), the service was warm, attentive, and efficient, making us feel right at home.
Dining at Fisher’s Roma felt like discovering a hidden gem—a local treasure offering authentic Mexican cuisine with a focus on fresh, flavorful seafood. If you’re looking to immerse yourself in Mexico City’s culinary scene beyond the usual tourist spots, this is a place worth visiting.
