Estakoza offers fresh seafood with a market style where guests pick seafood by weight and choose the cooking method, delivering generous portions and vibrant flavors; the experience is often described as friendly and welcoming with a lively atmosphere, and the seafood is consistently praised for freshness and quality across a variety of dishes; some visits note crowds and rushed service during busy times, occasional issues with presentation or sauce quality, and a price level that can feel high when several items are ordered, but overall guests say it remains a standout choice for seafood lovers.
Great experience! Fresh seafood with tasty garlic sauces. I truly enjoyed the sepia, although it was slightly on the chewier side. The fried red snapper was excellent. The smelt fish were among our favourites. This place also offers good value for the price. Would return!

The food was good, but the garlic sauce wasn't perfect
The price for the food is above average
However, compared to other seafood restaurants in the same field, this restaurant is more expensive About the usual The service was good but not fast This food was for two people
The food is of high quality & fresh.
Not bad at all: enjoyed most of it. The salad wasn't as fresh as I'd hoped, but everything else was solid. With a bit more attention to freshness, this place would be perfect
Best food I had in a while! The service was welcoming, warm, kid-friendly. The food was full of flavors, fresh, recipes original & delightful!
Such a pleasure to have discovered this place !!!
Estakoza is a truly unique & delicious seafood restaurant. It's not your usual place - when you walk in, there's a section that looks like a fish market or a big fridge filled with all kinds of fresh seafood. You can pick exactly what you want: fish, shrimp, calamari, & more. Everything is sold by weight, & then you tell them how you'd like it cooked - grilled, fried, baked, or however you prefer.
The food is incredibly tasty & fresh, full of flavor & perfectly cooked. You can really tell the seafood is high quality. It's a fun experience too because you get to choose everything yourself like in a market, but then enjoy it in a restaurant setting. Overall, Estakoza is a great spot for anyone who loves seafood & wants something a little different. Highly recommended!

Great spot for fresh seafood. Selected our favorites items from the display, the price was based on weight, then decided on the cooking style & sauce. The team was very helpful, as we were unfamiliar with this approach of serving. Every dish was expertly prepared & bursting with flavor. Since they didn't provide a running total of the order, excessive choices can certainly lead to a significant bill.
