Sabina Restaurante por La Guerrerense

I was so disappointed and heart broken. I do not doubt that this restaurant was at one point magnificent. Our legendary Bourdain spoke highly. Unfortunately this restaurant is not the same place I read about in magazines nor the same place I saw in documentaries. From the "shrimp ceviche " that was actually a pico de gallo with only but the smell of shrimp, and not a hint of lime. To the overly mayo saturated fish taco. Everything was an ocean of depression in my palette that I could only water down with a stew of mint called a mojito. I will give this restaurant a second chance, as I always do and they well deserve. I must say, however, their octopus taco mixed with their amazing mango salsa was juicy, soft and just 100% terrific. I do not have anything negative to say about the experience with the staff who were nothing but wonderful.

I had there shrimp cocktail it was great didn't have to add anything to it. The shrimp gobernador I got was good as well but didn't compare to the shrimp and fish tacos they batter they used was not your normal ensenada batter it was different but in a great way! There jamaica mezcal drink i got was great!!! We will be going back ! Oh and yes they are kid friendly my daughter loved her strawberry shake.

We went here because we heard they had great tostadas and do they ever! We asked our server Horacio which he recommended and he pointed us to the Singapore and the Guerrerense with shrimp. They were amazing! Fantastic service and reasonable prices. Definitely recommend.

Fresh, fresh and fresh. Wow what a fantastic meal. I would order everything I had again. The drinks were good and the seafood was out of this world. The staff was helpful and attentive. I can't wait to go back.

It's no wonder this place got a nod from the Michelin guide. The food was absolutely outstanding! The cocktails were delicious, and creative! The restaurant is tucked back in from this main Street a little bit, but, worth finding! The wait staff was attentive, the restaurant was clean, and we loved all of our meals!

Some of the best tostadas I've ever had. We ordered a coctel de almeja con camaron 🔥. Clam coctel with cooked shrimp 🍤.

This place is beautiful and very accommodating to non Spanish speaking customers. The food was delicious. You gotta try the sea urchin tostada!

Delicious fish taco, creamy shrimp taco and a very large bowl of pozole verde! Very fast service and food was ready quickly!

Away from all the noise and street hustling - this spot is a gem. We ordered the shrimp tostadas, and they were refreshing and flavorful - perfect balance of lime, cilantro, onion, and all the good stuff. Tried the guava juice too, though it was a bit too thick for my taste. But that may just be me! Everyone working there was super friendly and helpful, and they even threw in avocado for free (which feels like a rare miracle these days). Heads up: it's cash only and it's a stand, not a restaurant, so don't roll up expecting tables and waiters. Just great food & fast.

This cart is pretty famous by local (and not so local) standards. Anthony Bourdain had this cart and the restaurant a couple doors down as one of his favorites. I was planning on eating at the restaurant but there was no parking four blocks because of some race that was going on. We double parked by the cart and ate there. Service was awesome but they only take cash here. I got two tostadas: the campechana and Bacalao with octopus. Dang they are great; even while eating standing up.

One of those famous food channel places for ceviche tostadas. Definitely a popular place but the ordering and getting your food moves along quickly. If you're not sure what to get, just ask. They're super friendly and help you out. I think prices have gone up. About $10 usd for one tostada. But it is a pretty good size and packed with ingredients. I got their #5 which has most everything and is spicy. It carries good heat and was filling. Worth a stop if you're visiting Ensenada and like ceviche. About a 15-20 minute walk from the cruise port.

Located within walking distance from the Cruise Ship Port of Ensenada, La Guerrerense (meaning from the Mexican state of Guerrero) serves up delicious, filled to the edge seafood tostadas. It has been in business since 1960 (with current chef and owner taking over in 1976), with the original and current owner being internationally recognized for the use of fresh seafood, prepared with celebrated expertise and generosity. It's still served out of a modern street cart, and there is no seating...you have to eat it standing up. My brother and I found it to be well worth it. There is a ton of online content for La Guerrenrense, with enough positive posts to make this our most important stop during a cruise port day in Ensenada. Maps clearly indicates the location, but before the scheduled opening time, there is no indication of any sort of food event on that corner. We arrived around 9:15, with posted online hours indicating a 10:00 opening time. We ended up wandering around a bit, and noticed a storefront about one block north with signs indicating that we were in the right spot (it's the building with the billboard advertising notary services). It also gave the hours for La Guerrenrense (10:30) and its sister sit-down restaurant, Sabina, being 10. We later learned that this storefront is where all the supplies and signage for the food truck is stored overnight. By 9:45, it was clear where the food stand was going to be, and we could see all the fresh seafood for the day being brought in containers. While we waited for opening, I had a chance to walk across the street to Sabina's. People there were being served in a nice outdoor courtyard after 10, and we considered going there instead but ultimately decided to get the original food cart experience. We ended up being the 2nd group in line, and they opened a bit early at 10:20. You order and pay upfront. Everything is made to order, with ingredients being mixed in front of you as you move thru the line. The line had gotten to be 10 groups deep by this time, and it took patience to navigate. We got six of their most popular tostadas (each being MX$180, or about $10 USD), and I got my seafood cocktail (Large for MX$290). Because it is made in front of you, you can completely customize the ingredients (service is good), and in one case, they had to change the ingredients to replace a missing item...this ended up being my favorite bite. Tostadas: #1 Singapur (crab salad with shrimp, octopus, and scallops). #2 Ceviche de erizo con almeja (sea urchin ceviche with clam) #3 Guerrerense con camaron (tuna cubes marinated in Orange Juice and Shrimp) #4 Campechana (tuna ceviche with shrimp, octopus, snail, scallop, and clam. #5 Edy Power (Tuna, mango, and habanero cebiche with sea snail) #7 Pate pescado con callo (fish pate with scallop) Coctel: choice of up to eight different seafood choices, with me choosing shrimp, octopus, scallops, clam, oyster and sea snail and skipping the black clam and mussels. The blend is made in front of you, using clamato as the base and squirts of different ingredients (including ketchup and hot sauce). One caveat: a large piece of shell from the sea snail almost took out a filling...eating freshest seafood can be dangerous? This experience also confirmed my thought that perfectly ripe avocado slices (sliced thinly) is a must for cold seafood dishes like this. Here medium ripe avocados were expertly prepared to go on top. There was space for 3 tostada on each reusable plastic plates, which ended up being fortuitous since you have to eat standing up and one plate per person is probably the least risky to carry around. I did put all six salsas to sample, but ended up not needing any of it. So....my favorite was an improvised dish: They were out of clams, so I asked them to replace it with octopus. So the dish (I think) was the fish pate (made with marlin), topped with cooked octopus. My brother said I made an involuntary groan as I took my first crunchy bite...it was that hard hitting. The octopus is the best I've eaten at this price point. It had been tenderized and cooked in such a way that it was as tender as shrimp or scallops. The fresh mexican shrimp is also very good here in all the dishes, served whole in the cocktail and diced in big chunks in the tostadas. The standard size of the tostada is the base for how much seafood is piled on top, just enough so it doesn't topple over. Typical fillers like cucumbers and onions are used as enhancers, not fillers. If one is visiting Ensenada, it clearly indicates how fresh the sourced seafood can be here, with spectacular dishes if prepared in the right hands. It became my gateway to seafood restaurants here, making me want to visit others to see what food creativity/flavors exist. The possibilities seem limitless.

Had to come over due to all the hype. Yes, they got a Michelin star back in 2024. Yes, the food is colorful. Yes the service is prompt and courteous. So I'm not sure this one is referring to, but we went to the one that is the actual storefront. They have the original stand just outside and north of the storefront if you want that "authentic" feeling. Overall it's clean, shaded and pretty nice.

There was a long waitlist (about 40min and we didn't have the time for that as this was a few hour stop for our cruise). We were able to order to go and just ate outside. However when you do to go - they put everything on the side instead of inside the taco shell which was a little annoying since I was eating it right then. You can also get drinks to go. Strawberry marg 10/10 - they put taijin on the rim or something similar. Fish taco 8/10 Shrimp taco 10/10

Anthony Bourdain said this was the best, so had to try it when we were in Ensenada! Literally like up the street from the Carnival Cruise Port, it's a street vendor, but don't let that fool you. Everything was delicious, used a google translator for the pictures! Make sure that you do translate as some of the ingredients may contain peanuts! I ordered number one, my family ordered 2, 4, and 9. All were delicious, freshly made- it is slightly pricy, $180 pesos which is about $9.56 USD. (They do take US Dollars).

I was looking for a spot to eat on a stop at Ensenada during my cruise, and this spot was the most recommended taco spot I found from my research! I thought it was good, but you could find equivalent or better in Southern California for cheaper if you're in that area. I was really surprised that the pricing was almost equivalent to USD pricing, so don't expect this to be a cheap eats type of place! I do appreciate that the staff can communicate in English so it does make ordering a bit easier!

We came here on a tour so I only was able to sample one tostada. It was a mixed seafood tostada, and was the best tostada I've ever had. Anthony Bourdain discovered this restaurant many years ago and was so enthusiastic about the owner that he sponsored her in a world taco competition which she won. After sampling one tostada now we know why. It is a must try experience in Ensenada.

Dropped by here when our cruise ship stopped. Heard so much about it that I just had to try it. Unfortunately it didn't leave up to the hype. Overpriced! Fresh shrimp and a good tostada but it's easily something I can make at home. I'm glad I was able to try it, but wouldn't go out of my way next time.

We were looking for the food stand and saw a rectangular sign and went looking for the restaurant...which we found!!!! It is named "Sabrina".... I imagine the street stand is still open. Google says it closes at 6pm, yelp at 5pm Tacos were very good but I think that the mayonnaise was a little overpowering (very sweet-for USA palates?) and so that is why I give it a 4. Pricing is more for the tourist crowd which make sense considering the location (hence not a 3) Attentive service though. We got there just before closing

One of the best tacos I've ever tried. Would definitely recommend this place! P.S. The owner is the sweetest.

My husband and I visited this spot as a stop on our cruise. We weren't planning on getting off our ship as we had heard there wasn't much to see in Ensenada, but I saw the amazing reviews and felt like we had to check it out! Let me say, when they say spicy, they mean spicy!! It was all delicious but some of those hot sauces were too spicy for me! We order simple ceviche tostadas (shrimp and fish) and they were great!! You can see them making the tostadas right in front of you. They accept pesos and American dollars. One thing to note is that it was pretty crowded without a lot of seating options. I think it would have been better to take some of it to go and sit on a bench near the beach. We didn't do that, so we stood for a little and then got lucky with a family leaving a bench nearby. Great spot!! Check it out if you like seafood!

We were looking for somewhere to eat while in Ensenada for the day. Several people had suggested a restaurant in a hotel down the street. When we arrived, the hotel was only serving breakfast and the prices were pretty high for the area. We walked by the food cart at La Guerrense and saw the big line. I'm always good adventurous so we decided to try it. We ordered 3 tostadas, shrimp especiale, octopus and fish. All were ceviche. They priced well. When we received them, we looked at all the different salsa and chose a few and grabbed some napkins. We found a bench nearby to sit and eat. Why are the messiest foods always the best these tostadas were so delicious and incredibly fresh. I could've eaten several more, but we needed to go. As we returned to give our plates back, I saw that it was recommended by Anthony Bourdain. Even better. If I'm ever in Ensenada again I will forgo all else for this meal alone.

I'll say you won't find anything like this ceviche back in the states. It's great! Really like the flavors. Can't say much about ambiance as it's literally a taco stand but it does the job. I will say, one of them, I think #4 is super spicy. Some people will love it, some people won't. Just ask them which one is spicy and avoid it if you don't like something super spicy.

Stopped here whilst on a cruise at ~11am on a Wednesday, no wait in line. It's a street cart and there's a pillar in front of it with a picture of Anthony Bourdain and some pictures of their more popular menu choices. There are two benches you can sit at, so most people were standing, and salsas to the left of the cart. They take both MXN and USD. We ordered the campechana ($8), tuna with mango and habanero ($2, extremely spicy even for my parents who have high spice tolerance), and the camarones ($2.25). The seafood was fresh with the perfect acidic tang and the crunch of the toasted tortilla. If I were to go back again, I would order a variety of the individual specific seafood ceviches (e.g. pulpo, camarones) and not the tostada especiales--more budget friendly and also would allow me to try more variety. Would definitely visit again if I'm ever back in Ensenada!

This was my last food stop before getting back on the ship. I was pretty full from eating tacos all day, so that may play in to my review. We got there later in the afternoon and they were out a few things. I went with a Ceviche Guerrerense con Camaron and a Mixto Ceviche. Total was $11.00. The Guerrerense one was amazing! Chunks of tuna and shrimp with some avocado on top. This was the best tasting ceviche/tostada I have ever had. It was so fresh and rich. Definitely would get again. Mixto Ceviche- Meh. This was just ok. It was only like $2.00, so whatever, but it was rather fishy and nowhere near as good tasting as the specialty one. I only ate a few bites of it. Would not recommend. Glad I tried this place and it was good. Not sure it was worth $11.00 though...would rather eat 7 fish tacos across town for the same price.

Loved trying this fish shack in Ensenada! Anthony Bourdain recommends this place and I can see why! Simply a cute corner cart with limited seating. Delicious fresh fish and quick service! On a Main Street with all sorts of shopping. Don't miss it!

Very flavorful food. We got the carne asada. The meet was too chewy for me (not the best quality beef). The best thing I had was the chips and salsa. Their chips are dangerously delicious. Kinda reminds me of pork rinds. Atmosphere is super energetic. We had a bit of a scare because their credit card machine wasn't working and we didn't carry cash. Eventually, it worked. 20 minute walk from our Royal Caribbean Cruise Port. If I'm back I'd try their famous Birria.

Anthony Bourdain -- RIP, a moment of respect and silence please -- was right on about this cart! When you see locals lining up to eat here, you know it's going to be good authentic eats. Ordering was easy with all the pictures and large menu. There were so many different ceviches to choose from, some combinations of seafood I didn't even know existed as an option for ceviche. Nice thing is that food and enjoyment comes first. You order and eat, no worries about paying until after you're done. The ceviches were so fresh and loaded on top of crispy tostadas, generously covered with slices of avocado. Each had a perfect balance of salty sweetness from the fresh seafood and hints of refreshing sourness from the lime juice. Top it with one of their 20 different hot sauce and salsas and it's the perfect bite each time. There are no tables or seating, only a bench by the wall. People were enjoying themselves standing around the cart, socializing and enjoying these tasty snacks. After 3 tostadas though, they will fill you up. Champana 5/5* 5 out of 5 stars, even though this was one of the more bland and pricier tostadas that we tried. The chunks of various seafood were huge and tasted fresh, with some having a nice chewy bite to it. Nice, if you prefer just the fresh seafood flavor and nothing else. Mixto 5/5* The chunks were smaller cuts, but had more flavor. Pair it with a spicy salsa and this is my go-to. My favorite out of the three. Sea Urchin & Clam 5/5* I've never seen sea urchin mix on tostada before and had to try this. If you like sea urchin and the briny, salty fishiness flavors of the sea, this one is for you! The urchin gave this one a creamy mouthful, offset with the juicyness of clams, and the crunch of the tostada. One of my favorites also. When Bourdain showcases something, you have to go there. That man knows good food and this place doesn't disappoint. There are tons of eateries along this tourist-trap street, but do yourself a favor and skip those spots. I know it's hard when they're throwing out $1 fish tacos or free shots, but don't be like bees in the trap, keep buzzing along to this cart. Cheap AND delicious!

I am EXTREMELY happy my friends and I stumbled upon this restaurant when we were stopped in Ensenada for our cruise and walked around looking for somewhere to eat at for lunch. We didn't realize until we entered that it was a Michelin restaurant enjoyed by Anthony Bourdain. This recognition is well deserved as both the food and service were AMAZING!!! Right when we sat down, we were served chips and four different spicy salsas. We ordered numerous items - carne asada tacos, shrimp ceviche, rib eye guacamole, and the must-get food in Ensenada, fish tacos! Everything was delicious and flavorful! My favorites were the fish taco and the rib eye guacamole. Not to mention, all of our food was well-priced and not expensive for the quality and taste. I was so glad I got to try this place and I would totally come back here so I can eat their fish tacos again!!!

I am so happy I found this place. It is a literal food stand that serves the freshest seafood! They get busy, busy. You order from one of the workers and your order is made in front of you. People typically get one as the tostada is generously filled with seafood. I wanted the Fish Pate with scallops, but the popular one is Campechana so I ended up getting both and they both were delicious. I think I really enjoy scallops so I enjoyed the Fish Pate more. You pay after your meal so don't even think they don't see you walk away, they see you. You can pay in pesos or in dollars ($10/each).

I have been here many times, this is my sole reason for coming to Ensenada-really! This this I walked up and realized I did not have enough cash to eat the ridiculous amount of ceviche that I need. I walk across the street to an ATM and of course my card won't work. What's a ceviche starved gory to do? Cross to the other corner and head into Sabrina, the restaurant version of the cart that accepts credit cards. Equally delicious with chairs and A/C and beer! However the cart is in my sole. After eating in the restaurant we walked a bit ate some fish tacos and found an ATM that works and headed back to the card for more ceviche. And yes I realized I may have a problem. Order anything and you'll be happy.

The food is so delicious !!! They are fast and get the orders out quick, worth any line. The Singapore is my absolute favorite. Even though there are no tables I still give it a 5 for the consistency and gourmet food.

I dragged my friends here on our port day during our cruise to Ensenada. They are a street stand known for their tostadas and didn't have any tacos. We ordered a few tostadas and an octopus ceviche to share. They also have a brick and mortar literally across the street so we all walked over to try their tacos after. You can def taste the freshness of the seafood. Although we were south of the border, we somehow felt like we were just grabbing a meal in LA. Overall a good experience!

This used to be my go to spot every time I went to Ensenada. This will be my last time coming here. While the ceviches are still good, they don't put as much ceviche on the tostados as they used to . Before they we so full of goodies that it would fall Off the tostada, now it's a shell of its former self. And the prices got crazy expensive. $9.50 for each tostado is just to expensive for me, The owner is taking advantage of people just cause Bourdain came here and raved about it. That was over 12 years ago. I enjoyed this place but for me No Mas.

Found La Guerrerense thanks to Anthony Bourdain and wow... this place is legit. The seafood is as fresh as it gets. I tried the #3 (tuna cubes marinated in orange with shrimp) and a shrimp cocktail--both blew me away. Flavor, freshness, everything on point. Definitely worth the stop!

It was our first time visiting downtown Ensenada. Many of our friends had recommended this place, so we decided to check it out for some local delicacies. Since we were unfamiliar with the area, it took us a little while to find the food cart, which is located on the corner of Avenue Adolfo Lopez and Alvarado. Luckily, we arrived early enough to avoid the crowd. Everything on the menu looked great and delicious! We ordered the ceviche guerrerense con camarón, a shrimp ceviche tostada. It was incredibly fresh and savory, with a generous portion of shrimp. After finishing the shrimp tostada, we decided to try a couple of other seafood options: sea cucumber and octopus. Both were equally delicious, thanks to their freshness. We particularly enjoyed the sea cucumber tostada, a dish I've never had in the US. In addition to these options, they also offer live clams and oysters. We watched as their staff busily shucked oysters and opened clams. We'll have to save those for another trip! The staff at the food cart were incredibly friendly and helpful. The cashier spoke enough English, so we didn't encounter any problems when ordering. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed the delicious food and the experience of eating on the street.

First time at the La Guerrerense, Good quality of food but definitely was on the bit of pricier side but it is a Michelin guide rated place, when we were there, they were out of few of the items so couldnt try everything we wanted to try a bummer but overall good place and recommend to have 1 of the salsas not spicy for kids to try as well! Service was pretty good not the greatest

If you're down to try food from a street vendor (although this is not just any street vendor) I definitely recommend you stop here. Hands down best and most fresh ceviche I've had yet. Just thinking about the tostada that I had here makes my mouth water. It was kinda pricey but worth it in my opinion. I'd go back to Ensenada just for the food.

Great food (tasty, fresh and delicious). Price is reasonable. Fast and friendly service. The place is clean. Definitely worth the visit

Stopped in Ensenada for our cruise and OMG! this place was sooo good!! Definitely a must-try if you're visiting the area. The season is so fresh and they have a wide variety. They operate from a little stand and theres no seats. The food is served on plates which makes it easy to eat.

This is a must-visit place in Ensenada!! The cart is very walkable from the cruise ship port and easily identifiable from the crowds of people standing around enjoying the food. A very nice gentleman at the front explained the menu and provided us with recommendations of their most popular items. My husband got the ceviche guerrerense con camaron (guerrerense ceviche with shrimp), and I got the ensalada de jaiba con camaron, pulpo y callo (crab salad with shrimp, octopus and scallops AKA the singapur). I believe the total came out to about $16-18 USD. Both tostadas were super fresh and so delicious!!! I have never tasted such fresh and sweet scallops in my life. They have a wide variety of salsas on the side to choose from -- be careful, some of them are really spicy!! I appreciated that there were bottles of hand sanitizer around. Very limited seating - two benches, if I recall correctly. Just a nice spot to grab and munch and go! My only regret is that I was still full from my cruise breakfast and could not stuff more tostadas down. These tostadas alone are making me contemplate another trip to Mexico. Don't miss out!!

It's an interesting stall with fresh ingredients and friendly services. Pricing is Cali pricing. 5 small tostada for USD$47. Glad we have tried it, although it is not as good as expected.

Service was 5 star. The seafood was Amazing but that Ribeye Taco was MAGICAL. 10 OF 10 definitely.

If you search You Tube for places to eat in Ensenada you will find dozens of videos for La Guerrerense and for good reason. Their seafood tostadas are incredible. These treats are prepared with ocean fresh ingredients right before your eyes by a very nice crew. I screwed up my order (no habla Espanol) and a wonderful young lady who was fluent in English was on hand to sort things out. If you visit Ensenada by cruise ship, this is a short walk through busy and safe neighborhoods. The length of the lines depend on time, day of the week, and number of cruise ships in port. On the day I visited (Monday), there was only one ship in port and I waited just a couple of minutes. The street cart is not open on Tuesdays, so your alternative is right across the street at Sabina Restaurante. It is owned by the same folks behind La Guerrerense.

DELICIOUS and FRESH ceviche that bursts with flavor in every bite. We appreciated so many salsa options. Quick and affordable eats Employees were very friendly & a local musician played music. Fun vibes for a quick bite.

La Guerrerense was a must visit for me when I went to Ensenada. I knew I couldn't leave Mexico without trying the tostadas from here. We unfortunately arrived after 2:30PM and they were quickly running out of some of their items. I'm not sure if they make more to sell in the afternoon, but I asked for their ceviche de Camaron, and Pescado con Mango & Habanero and they out of both. A little disappointing, but no biggie. I knew I had another place I wanted to check out so I didn't over order here. I ordered their Ceviche Guerrerense con Camaron. It came with their Guerrerense ceviche which is tuna with orange juice and then shrimp on top. The tuna ceviche had really good flavor and everything tasted fresh. They top it off with fresh creamy avocado, and you can add some hot sauce that they have on the side of their cart. Once I finished that tostada, I ordered their Mixto ceviche. This one is not as pricey as the previous one I ordered but just as delicious. You pay at the end once you're done eating, which is great because you don't have to touch your cash before eating with your hands. Will definitely be returning here without a doubt. I will make sure that I arrive early enough to try some of their other tostadas before they sell out.

Walked here from the 4 dollar shuttle from the cruise port. It was like 10-15 min walk. You walk through the busy rowdy part of town into a more chill part. Once you see the cruise ships to your right you are close. You order first eat and then pay, or that's what I did. You can pay in USD. Ordered the campechana and scallop thing. Seafood is fresh as the have a constant flow of people. Pricing was 17 for both, which I thought was reasonable given then quality and touristy area. Overall a good experience would recommend.

This was the first thing we ate after we arrived in Ensenada from our cruise. After having done research I saw that this was a very popular spot, famously quoted by Anthony Bourdain as the "best street food in the world". It was only about a 15 minute walk from the port and was a food stand on the corner of Alvarado and Av Adolfo López Mateos. You order first and then pay later and there was someone managing the line. The cool thing was that they also took US dollars if you didn't have Mexican currency. I got the tostada ceviche guerrerense con camarón (140 pesos, ~$8 USD) which was so fresh and slightly spicy. It was bright from the lime and the avocado was delicious. The tostada itself was crunchy and altogether I could see why it was as popular as it is among locals and tourists. For the amount of food, especially in Mexico, it was on the pricier side but Anthony Bourdain was pretty accurate because this was pretty damn good.

When looking for a little local faire while visiting Ensenada, look no farther than La Guerrerense! Can't really call it a food truck. More like a food cart. Right off a busy street corner about a mile from the cruise ship terminal. The hype is real! Better believe. If you don't believe me, maybe take a look at some of the famous individuals who've visited Ensenada in search of this cart. Does the name Anthony Bourdain sound familiar?!?! They make fresh seafood tostadas and ceviche. Pretty sure whatever they're preparing for you slept in the ocean the night before. They were shucking clams, chopping them up and placing them on tostadas right before our eyes. Granted the ceviche needed to be prepared a bit further in advance. But you could still taste the freshness! Ordered a small ceviche. Smacked myself after when I finished it in about 5 seconds and wanted another. Do yourself a favor, get the large on your initial order. They have various salsas available to accent the flavors. Do try them as they really do enhance your experience. Service is friendly and prompt. Edgar is the main guy here and speaks perfect English. Order with him, enjoy your food and pay prior to leaving. Throw in a tip and the team yells, "Gracias!" Keep on Yelp'n!

This place is the legendary cart that Anthony Bourdain featured and while it's good, I don't think it's the best. Personally, I enjoy Makukos a bit better, although for being in the downtown area, it's very good. The hard part with Ensenada is that good ceviche and mariscos are everywhere. That doesn't take away from La Guerrerense, but they aren't the best in my opinion. Definitely work a check out, but if you miss it, you'll find another great ceviche spot.

Absolutely incredible! Everything has been said about this place, and it absolutely earns all its praises! The fish, mango, and habanero ceviche tostada was the best singular dish I may have ever tasted, just the right spice, a perfect contrast to the sweetness of the mango. Plus it was super cheap. You cannot miss this, it is worth driving from LA just for this.

Yes, it's that good. We had the basic ceviche three ways: shrimp, octopus, and mixed, for a mere $2 each in tostada version, all were super fresh and not "fishy". I had two of the sea urchin (erizo) and clam tostadas at a more sizable $8 each and thought to myself what I'd pay for uni and clam sushi...more than that! Like nothing I have had before...what textures and flavors. Ultra fresh flavors of the sea...attention all uni novices. No where to sit...it's a stand. But nice guys working there. Not all speak English but all know the menu item names in English. I'd say given the limited variety of things to do in Ensenada, DEFINITELY eat here. Do the horseback riding too if it avails itself--super cheap and where else are you gonna ride horses on the beach.

The dude and I had to stop at La Guerrernse as this is the place that Anthony Bourdain raved about and wanted to try this place for years! My dream came true as we were In Ensenada on 11/18/22 and was so thrilled this place was up and running. We found this place so easily using Google maps and it's at the location it says it will be. When we arrived there was a line. But it moved quickly. My Spanish is not very good luckily the cashier was able to help out us partial Spanish speakers. He was so kind and friendly and even helped us locate a ice cream place. Anywho, I was not in an adventurous state as they had they had octopus and other exotic creatures which was awesome! I stayed on the safe side and wanted a simple tostada and I got the fanciest which was the Fancy Shrimp Tostada and it was ready in minutes. The dude and I agreed it was the BEST shrimp and ceviche mix we had ....my goodness those flavors were popping in my mouth. Absolutely delicious and a must if you are in Ensenada. It appeared very clean and sanitary. Food tasted fresh. It was huge too so I couldn't finish it so the dude demolished it in seconds! Overall, you can't miss it. It is a nice food cart or stand and they have a lovely menu to serve you delicious food. I must say...everything taste better in Mexico hands down! Can't wait to come back just for this treat! Worth every penny!

Food 5 stars. You know your seafood is fresh and perfect when the sea urchin you serve is perfectly umami~ unfortunately I think the people take advantage of the tourists and add few more dollars to the stated price, so I'll go ahead and take few stars off. 4 tostadas and a drink cost us $40. Not sure if I'd go back. I guess a one and done is the best description.

I went to Ensenada for the weekend just to eat seafood and I had to stop by La Guerrerense after watching Anthony Bourdain and some YouTube videos featuring Sabina and her crew. The cart is easy to find, on the corner of Avenue Adolfo López Mateos and Alvarado. It's basically on the tourist street where all the gift shops are located for cruise passengers to stop and shop. There are choices from traditional to unique seafood tostadas and cocktails you can get. We tried one of their specials that had sea urchin on the tostada. All of their house made sauces and salsas are on the side to dress your food. Be careful, some are extremely spicy! The workers are really nice and helpful. Some of them can speak English, which makes it easier for non-Spanish speakers like myself. This is a must visit if fresh, raw seafood is up your alley.

It was a quiet weekend in Ensenada, so we got lucky and there was not much of a line. I have learned never to count out a street vendor, and this spot was definitely no exception. The workers were all so nice and helpful, and the man who seemed to be overseeing everything spoke perfect English. I ordered the shrimp ceviche tostada and one of their specialty tostadas that I cannot remember the name of, but it had crab salad on the bottom and scallops, shrimp, and octopus on the top. These were definitely the best ceviches we had over the weekend. So fresh and flavorful, and the tostadas were heavy duty. They stood strong with the huge portions on top of them. This will definitely be a stop I make anytime I am in Ensenada - long line or not! I can't wait to try more of their options and will bring an empty stomach next time, so I can get more.

Exceptionally good. So full of flavor, have to get one of the special tostadas. The Cameron was absolutely delicious. And with the salsa! Yum. Absolutely worth a stop
