    Perfect Night! Have been to this fav spot for many years. May have been our best meal last night. Had their house salad which should not be overlooked. So fresh and great ingredients which balances the other heavier food. Had the Cochina Pibil that I will think about until I have it again. So tender and drank all the broth with a spoon. My wife had enchiladas pescatarian style. Best corn tortillas. Great service and ai b a fun spot!! Can’t wait to get back again!

    It was incredible as always but there was a large table of loud Americans whose noise prohibited us from hearing the singer.

    Our server Sandra went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed at all times the entire staff was super attentive to clear our plates as soon as we were done, very quick to bring out our drink orders (the Mezcalita with passion fruit was super fresh a delicious, a must try!), helping us pack up our leftovers carefully so they wouldn’t make a mess on the way back to the hotel. All and all, a great experience. The interior seating area is a bit reduced in size, but who wants to sit inside when the outdoor seating has such spectacular views of the marina. Great place to get a drink, quick snack, or have a full meal (the blackened catch of the day was delicious and super fresh) while you people watch and enjoy the view. Shoutout to Angel, Gabriel and Bladimir from their staff! Along with Sandra, that all contributed to our overall great experience at La Galería. 👍👍
