Montezuma Spanish

About

A breezy soda with a second-floor deck right over the beach in Montezuma, where the waves crash below and the seafood is strictly fresh; they will turn you down rather than serve something they could not get that day. Reviewers praise the ceviche with fried plantain tortillas, the house salsa picante, and a fish casado some call the best in town. A tip from reviews: confirm prices when you order daily specials.

Fantastic fresh seafood & a great view! We really wanted to eat squid but they said "we only serve fresh seafood & we can't get that right now." That says a lot about quality. The ceviche was great, served with fried plantain tortillas. We had the seafood mixed grill for 2, and it was a ton of food - grilled Mahi, tuna, shrimp & muscles, salad & potatoes. And they have a 2nd floor deck over the beach, fantastic view w/ waves crashing. The prices were very reasonable. They didn't have a liquor license but let us bring in wine from the nearby store.

Awesome spot for lunch. Killer ceviche! Ask for the house made salsa picante to go with it. Staff is super friendly and even recommended a few local hikes to take that tourists don’t know about. (We did them and they were so cool!)

Even though it was a rainy day the view was perfect. We have our favorite places to eat in Montezuma but decided to try the soda since it was new. The food was very good. The fish casado is probably the best I have had in town. Everything on the plate was prepared perfectly. We will definitely be back next time we are in town.
