El Boliche Cebicheria

So delicious!! I had the coconut based one and my hubby got the sour cream based one, amazing. A Must go to when in Cartegena!

I found this place over a travel blog, and although it took us a minute to find him personally, it was incredible! The food is carefully prepared, fresh and full of taste. The mood in the restaurant was immaculate and the prices were very reasonable. Our Seger helped us lead to the dishes they believed we were best and everything was delicious. It was also wonderful to sit inside and not evaluated by street vendors. Skip La Cevicheria and come here instead.

Great place. Cebiches and crabs are out of this world. highly recommended when visiting Cartagena

The staff is friendly and the dishes are inspiring. Not only the Ceviche the best I've ever had, it's in another eschelon. The aromas are subtle, interesting and perfectly balanced. The crab empanadas were amazing as well as the crab soup. Do not miss this unique experience.

We had booked this restaurant and then saw the recent poor reviews and almost cancelled. I’m so glad we didn’t and we wondered if the recent reviewers had actually been to the restaurant! The food was absolutely fantastic. The restaurant is small (only 12 covers and you have a perfect view of the kitchen. The staff don’t speak lots of English (why should they, this is a Spanish speaking country! , but they are friendly, smiley and helpful and the menu is in English. We have eaten very well in Colombia, but this has been the best fish and seafood we’ve had so far (2 weeks in to our holiday . The quality of the produce was really clear and the cooking was excellent. I know people have said it’s expensive, but let’s face it, it’s all comparative!! Yes, you can probably get a bit cheaper at some places in the city (you can also get a whole lot more expensive , but the quality of the produce speaks for itself. I’ve included a couple of pictures of the menu, please note that’s not the whole menu, there’s a lot more to choose from! We had the Coconut and then the Roasted Seafood and it was enough for two. They give a lovely amuse bouche at the beginning and little sweet at the end too. All in all a great meal, please don’t let a couple of poor reviews put you off going.
