Restaurante El Pirata Zona Romántica — Restaurant in Jalisco

This is a hidden gem on the 2nd floor where you have phenomenal food made to order by the older lady that looks like someone’s gramma/meemaw/ nonna/ yiayia/ Abuelita. The taco Birria was perfect for those that are lactose intolerant but those that have no issues, enjoy the queso Birria with the awesomeness of the consome. We had the peccado zarandeado and it did not disappoint the seasoning was beyond belief to make it juicy. The Don was cooking our fish there and he knew how many minutes per side. It was super juicy and that 3 kilos of fish was way more than one can ask for so be prepared to share. The shrimp cocktail was different but super fresh. The price was super reasonable and Will go back again and dont forget to park a block away in the public parking lot to make it...

We came back a second time as it was so good. The fish was again fantastic. I didn't mention the lack of customer service the first time but after a second time here, it should be noted. We where the only ones in here, I shouldn't have to flag someone down for everything, every time. It deserves the 4.9 star because of the food but some service training would be welcomed.

My wife and I split a kilo of the peccado zarandeado bbq whole fish. We've been in several costal areas, in numerous countries, and this was the absolute best fish dish we've ever had! Perfect cooked, amazing seasoning and severed with tortillas, rice, beans and guacamole. All house made and fantastic. They also take credit cards. I highly recommend going and getting the fish! We...

I want to cheer this place on... The food is delicious, and the cooks are skilled!

... but there is something missing. It may have just been that day, but there was a sadness that prevailed.

Would I eat here again? Absolutely. But with all of the options within walking distance, this is not the very best value nor the best atmosphere.

If you are visiting and nearby don't hesitate to come get a delicious meal here! I will likely be back, and if the atmosphere improves I will...
