Tucked inside the Moxy South Beach, is this moody take on a traditional marisquería and raw bar.

The restaurant’s interior boasts stone and brick walls displaying Mesoamerican artifacts. Carved wooden doorways and wrought iron archways lead to the main dining room, filled with furnishings made of leather, carved wood, and embroidered and woven fabrics. The centerpiece of the dining room is the copper-and-wrought-iron “fuego” (fire station), while the bar boasts a “tequila tree” sculpture made of glass spheres and copper pipes that the tequila travels through to be used in cocktails. The restaurant also features an outdoor courtyard with colored tiles, hanging plants, and stone gardens. 

The menu has been designed to channel the flavors of Mexico's most lauded seaside destinations, from Puerto Escondido and Los Cabos to Acapulco. Many dishes feature whole grilled fish caught in local waters, such as pescado a la talla, snapper that is butterflied, grilled, and painted with two marinades. There's also tableside presentations such as hand-chopped Tartar de Pescado.
