About this spot
Cabildo delivers a polished dining experience in the heart of Getsemani where you should order the fresh ceviche or grilled fish straight from the daily market haul. The open kitchen buzzes with energy, and the staff will happily explain how to properly eat your seafood dishes with the provided tostadas.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the ceviche immediately upon arrival as the citrus-marinated fish is at its peak freshness when it first comes off the boat.
- Ask for a side of fried plantains (maduros) to balance the acidity of the seafood and add a sweet finish to your meal.
- Save room for the local arepas, which are served warm and stuffed with savory fillings like cheese or black beans.
