Agua & Sal

Agua & Sal is a cebichería in Polanco dedicated to Latin American seafood and the coastal traditions that surround it. Its culinary focus is ceviche, presented as a dish built around freshness, simplicity and the character of the sea. The menu draws from the shores of Mexico, Central and South America, and the Caribbean, bringing together preparations associated with fishing communities across the region.

The menu includes seafood served in several formats, including ceviches, tostadas, tartares, tacos and cooked fish. Tostadas pair seafood with ingredients such as chile, soy, miso and avocado, while the tartar selection combines smoked shrimp with vegetable garnishes and a chile-based dressing. The taco section takes inspiration from the Pacific coast and includes seafood fillings such as marlin, shrimp and battered fish.

Cooked seafood has a place alongside the raw and chilled preparations. Fish of the day can be served with lemon, butter and parsley, accompanied by boiled potatoes. Drinks and desserts are also part of the menu, giving the restaurant a broader meal format than a ceviche counter alone.

Agua & Sal’s style is rooted in Latin American coastal cooking, with familiar seafood preparations joined by regional chiles, citrus, corn, avocado and other ingredients associated with the cuisine. The result is a menu suited to diners looking for fish and shellfish in forms that range from light and citrus-led to warm, rich and more substantial. The setting is Polanco, making it a practical choice for a seafood-focused meal in Mexico City.

The restaurant also places emphasis on responsible seafood practices. Its stated approach includes respecting fishing bans and supporting sustainable fishing and ocean conservation. That commitment forms part of the venue’s identity and connects the menu with the wider coastal communities it celebrates.
