Absolutely wonderful from every angle. We ordered 3 dishes (based on server’s recommendations), and each one was perfect. As a person who doesn’t normally eat cooked oysters, i strongly recommend the cooked oysters – absolutely delicious!!

Wow, just wow! I had the most extraordinary dining experience at Pescardor during Tony Messina’s Ceviche bar take over dinner event. It was an absolute delight for the senses, and I can’t stop raving about it!

The whole roast branzino was the best fish I have ever eaten and that is not an exaggeration, perfectly salted and cooked to perfection. The only thing mildly disappointing is the slightly unripe avocado. The oysters asadas were huge and they were delicious perfectly cooked but super buttery. The fried calamari was fried very well and the fried jalapeno was very delicious and very filling. The atmosphere is perfect for a date or a small party of friends to just hang out and have a good time. They have a great selection of drinks. The tequila was very smooth and the margaritas were very balanced.

Three different waiters recommended the branzino and it did not disappoint – I would come back just to order this one dish again! It‘a prepped as a diy fish taco but honestly the fish was delicious to eat just on its own, perfectly flavored and tender. Peruvian ceviche was also a standout as were the corn “ribs”. The pork ribs al pastor was solid albeit a bit on the heavier side and calamari was forgettable. Got the passionfruit pie for dessert which was honestly a pass as it was too sweet (not enough acidity) especially paired w the vanilla ice cream. Knocking off a star because the service was quite slow but really enjoyed the ambiance of this restaurant for either friends’ night out or date night and would love to come back to try other seafood dishes on the menu.

After my first visit to Pescador just after they opened I was never going back. It was way to loud. I did go back finally and I’m glad I did. Our sever Lara could not have been nicer or more helpful. Kudos to her. Her thoughts about what we were thinking about ordering were totally on point. The baked oysters were delicious! Dipping the bread in the oyster topping was a treat! My scallops with corn were so good I ate every bite. My husbands roasted chicken was tender and delicious. He really enjoyed the mole sauce. Lemon drop martini, very good. Unfortunately no room for desert. Sitting toward the back of the restaurant made for a quieter much more pleasant dinner. Will definitely go back and hope Lara will again help us out!

We came here for Valentine’s dinner. They had a special menu (we were not aware until we arrived) for the occasion but we opted to order from the normal menu instead. What made us choose this relatively new place was the incredible photos of the dishes shared online plus the menu offered. Also the small reviews it had were all positive.

Nestled next to the Commonwealth hotel, Pescador is a welcome new addition that serves contemporary seafood fares.

The scallops and red snapper were both top-notch. Farro and scallop, appetizer and frijoles side a bit less so. Service was rather nonchalant, with the wrong appetizer coming out. We were celebrating a birthday, and while they do offer candles, the dessert is not complementary, which came as a bit of a surprise when you are spending $100 a person.

Great seafood restaurant with amazing service! Beautiful decor and atmosphere too. The food did not disappoint, both raw and cooked seafood and the lamb chops (not pictured because it was inhaled).
