Los Angeles | Holbox – Good, But Not Mind-Blowing 🌮🐟

We went into this meal with sky-high expectations! Since the line was long, we decided to order generously—12 dishes in total, coming to about $190. The standouts were: 🐙 Pulpo a las Brasas – Tender and flavorful grilled octopus. 🥑 Smoked Kanpachi Taco – Rich and creamy, with fish and avocado blending perfectly. 🍋 Scallop Aguachile – Refreshing and zesty, a great starter. The other dishes were decent, but honestly, they didn’t live up to the hype we’d built up in our minds. ⚠️ Heads-up for cilantro-haters: several dishes mix fish with cilantro, which might be a deal-breaker! In summary – a solid spot I’d return to, but not one I’d urgently recommend to friends. Maybe our expectations were just too high? 😅 📍 3655 S Grand Ave c9, Los Angeles, CA 90007 #Holbox #LAEats #LAFood #MexicanSeafood #FoodReview #LAFoodie #NotWhatIExpected #GoodButNotGreat
