Pescadería La Mojarrita

Pescadería La Mojarrita is a casual seafood counter on Calle Presidente Benito Juárez in Santa Rosa de Múzquiz, offering an inland counterpoint to the ranching-heavy cabrito menus that dominate the rest of Coahuila's restaurant scene. The kitchen works with regional freshwater and farm-raised fish rather than ocean seafood, given the town's inland location, with filete de mojarra (tilapia fillet) as the headline dish, alongside camarones al mojo de ajo (garlic shrimp) and a coctel de camarón (shrimp cocktail) served in the chilled, tomato-based style typical of Mexican seafood counters. There is no fine-dining ambition here; the restaurant operates as a straightforward seafood counter serving a mostly local clientele looking for a change from the region's grilled-meat staples. The setting is casual -- counter or basic table service, simple furnishings, and an unhurried, functional atmosphere across its 10AM-8PM daily hours. There is no wine list; beer and soft drinks accompany the seafood, consistent with the casual format. Reservations are not required, and prices sit at the moderate $$ level. For visitors who have had their fill of cabrito and carne asada elsewhere in Coahuila, Pescadería La Mojarrita offers a genuine local alternative, and the mojarra fillet in particular is the dish most representative of the restaurant's inland-seafood approach.
