“I just made the rub , it’s spot on perfect amount of spices , I used smoked Paprika instead of regular , the salt is perfect not too much , if you want to add more you can add it later , better not to have too much less is best ! Thank you” — a cook, 5.0★
“close... but not authentic. After living in Cabo San Lucas Mexico for 2 years you did get the mayo correct but they just season their fish grill it.... add salsa, shredded cabbage and mayo and lime to a warm, soft corn tortilla” — a cook, 4.0★
