“Hands down the best seafood in La Paz. The tuna curricanes and the Shot El Pato are insanely flavorful. Super fresh catch of the day, really fast service and an unbeatable atmosphere. 17 years in and the quality is as good as ever.”
“17 years of tradition you can taste in every bite. The aguachile El Pato with black sauce and mango is one of the best I’ve had in all of Baja California Sur. A must if you come to La Paz: generous portions and excellent flavor.”
“Excellent spot in Col. Indeco. The bacon-wrapped shrimp tacos are huge and generously served. The beer is ice cold and the prices are very fair for how fresh everything is. Don’t leave without trying the broth.”
“A must-stop every time I visit La Paz. The red snapper chicharrones and the campechana seafood cocktail are a culinary work of art. The staff are always top-notch and the service is lightning fast.”

El Pato started as a beloved little fresh-ceviche stand in La Paz and quickly became the favorite gathering spot for the Indeco neighborhood and La Paz families.
Every morning we buy seafood fresh off the boats at the fishing dock, clean the fish by hand and make every aguachile the moment you order it.
No industrial recipes and no pretense here: we serve big shrimp, salsas that are spicy and full of flavor, ice-cold beer and the warmth of a classic that has fed generations.
