El Puerto De San Blas - Indianapolis

Been reading about this place in Indy monthly. Stopped by to try shrimp natchos. They were very good, but only after I added guacamole that is included and some of the great complimentary crab 'salad ' that comes with the chips. Will be back to try something more adventurous.

Best Hispanic Restaurant in Town. Easily the best food for a 'Mexican ' restaurant in town. My favorite is the Paella or for lunchtime, the buffet (all the guacamole you can eat). Unfortunately, the staff doesn 't speak (or they act like it) understand much English. Food is kinda on the high end for cost but worth it. Bathroom could use a fixup with more hand washing sinks. Other than that, the food is authentic and tasty. Everytime I 'm there I hardly see any non-hispanic looking people so the food has to be on the real. Its my treat for good food when my wife is out of town because she does not like the restaurant and says my breath smells after eating there. Out of ten I give it a 8 and a half!

Unique Experience. I never really had Mexican seafood before my visit here excluding fish tacos. It was a mini vacation of sorts: 99% of the patrons speaking Spanish, Two T.V. stations playing Mexican music videos and latin music piped out over the music speakers. I got their signature dish Agua Chile(raw shrimp pickled in lime with fresh onions and green, hot peppers). The actual flavor of the shrimp was very mild. The waitress warned me when ordering that the dish was 'hot ', but once again it was rather mild. I am not sure if the chef toned it down for a gringo or if I really am just that use to eating really spicy foods. I would like to go again and try some other dishes. I saw a whole fried fish that looked very appealing. P.S. Still regretting not learning Spanish in Highschool. I guess it is never too late to get Rosetta Stone.

Something to try. I have enjoyed this place every time I've gone. It's primarily a seafood restaurant and since seafood is pricey, be prepared....because the atomsphere feels kind of like a Captain D's or something, but the food is high quality seafood. I still love the place, only when you're going to spend $60 or more on seafood, I would like to have an atmosphere that fits the price. I'll still be back, though.

Authentic, unique and delicious. Lunch time offers a buffet. This is good but sit down and venture out to pick one of the dishes from a table next to you. The huge bowls of seafood soup, steaming with aluminum foil wrapped tortillas will make the buffet look like child's play. Fish tacos, shrimp tacos both excellent. Menu is in Spanish but pictures on back to help with selections. Almost didn't post this because I hate to think it will become mainstream!
