Open-air neighborhood mariscos where the ceviche is the move and the bill stays tiny.
El Calamar Gigante is the plastic-chairs, open-air seafood stop that locals keep for themselves: chips and homemade salsa land first, the menu comes in Spanish and English, plus the cold preparations do the heavy lifting. The ceviche and aguachiles draw the real praise, the seafood cocktails arrive loaded with shrimp, octopus, scallops and fish, and the garlic shrimp plates come out looking better than the tables they land on.
The cold side of the menu is where this kitchen lives, and the setting is open-air and easygoing. At these prices it's a very good deal.
Local tips
Order the medium portions; they're honest sizes and the large will defeat you. A mostly-local crowd is the quality signal.
What to order
The ceviche and the aguachile first. A mixed seafood cocktail for the table, and the garlic shrimp if you want a hot plate.
