Without a doubt, this is one of the most famous restaurants in Cartagena thanks to a nice visit that took place a couple of years ago. It was in 2008 when the famous chef and presenter Anthony Bourdain listed them as the best cevicheria in the city. La Cevicheria was born as a small four-table restaurant in front of the imposing Sofitel Santa Clara hotel. Months later the small place became a much wider corner restaurant with that relaxed and cheerful touch of the Caribbean and an even wider menu.
