El Buzo (The Diver) has piqued my curiosity on fb with many people saying it was a NEW restaurant in town. When I met the owner last week, she shared that her restaurant had been in the Malecon and rents became too high - so she moved it - and when she moved it - she "reinvented" the menu offerings! Smart. Delicious! Find it on Benito Juarez in the shopping center by the railroad tracks and on facebook: El Buzo. We began with a Ruzo (citris with tajin on the cup lip) and a Grumpy Smurf (pina colada with blue coloring) drinks - both very fun mixology and refreshing. We shared an appetizer of thin sliced succulant tuna shashimi with capers and red onion (center oval dish) served with a cracker I cannot identify and homemade corn chips. Yum-alicious! The small portion was easily a meal in itself. My dining companion ordered a shrimp dish with a very fluffy rice topped with a plantain, salad, and cibatta toast. We neglected to write down descriptions and plate names because we were busy consuming every juicy, fragrant morsel of our dishes. I ordered the shrimp and bacon tacos that I think are the best I have ever experienced anywhere! Having enjoyed the tuna shashimi tremendously, I really should not have eaten the third taco - but it was utterly irresistible. I am a card-carrying member of the Clean Plate Club. We enjoyed the bright, fresh atmosphere of the cozy indoor dining room and enjoyed glances to the kitchen where a bevvy of activity took place preparing for the after 3pm crowd. The prices were right for the quality of offerings and excellent service. We look forward to returning often - and paying a little more attention to the details to share with others more accurately! Thank goodness we had the presence of mind to snap some photos before diving in!

We had a delicious, lovely meal . We could hear the chef happy & laughing in the kitchen- seasoned our food with happy . Staff was great , knowledgeable- great menu. Nom nom nom.
