Polished Mexican seafood spot with creative starters and impressive whole-fish mains; great cocktails, lively terrace, premium prices, and occasional service inconsistencies.
Puntarena delivers A-grade performance through exceptional food quality—particularly whole grilled fish and braised short rib—paired with strong cocktail guidance and an inviting covered terrace. Consistency shows some variation and seating logistics occasionally falter, preventing the higher tier, but the restaurant competes confidently with the area's better neighborhood destinations for seafood-focused Mexican dining.
One caveat: Pricing is genuinely expensive (€25+ mains; many fish near €49-55) which may surprise casual diners
