White Fish Totoaba Fresh Sourced Locally

why our fish matters

At El Squid Roe, we’ve never been just another bar or restaurant. We’re a movement—a heartbeat of Cabo San Lucas nightlife. A place where the wild, the unforgettable, and the iconic collide under one roof. But what we serve on your plate matters just as much as the party happening around it.

 

That’s why we’ve taken a bold step forward—adding conscious cuisine to our chaotic charm. Now, when you dine with us, you’re part of something bigger than the table.

 

We’re proud to serve 100% responsibly farmed, traceable Totoaba fish from La Paz, Baja California Sur—a breakthrough in sustainable seafood and one of the most ethical, exclusive, and exciting fish you can eat today. It’s not just dinner. It’s a decision that helps the ocean, supports local conservation, and elevates your experience from great… to legendary.

What Is Totoaba?

Totoaba is a majestic, flavorful fish native to the Sea of Cortez. Once on the brink of extinction due to overfishing, Totoaba is now making a comeback—thanks to regenerative aquaculture. The fish we serve is sourced exclusively from Santomar, a cutting-edge marine farm that partners with conservationists to protect this endangered species.

​

 

  • Endemic to the Sea of Cortez

  • Fully traceable by QR code

  • Zero impact on wild populations

  • Part of a government-backed repopulation program

Why Totoaba Tastes Amazing

Totoaba isn’t just good for the planet. It’s damn delicious.

 

With a mild flavor and buttery texture similar to sea bass or halibut, it works perfectly in:

 

  • Grilled tacos

  • Seared fillets

  • Baja-style ceviches

  • Crispy beer-battered strips

 

Next time you order Fish Tacos, Ceviche, Catch of the Day, Mayan Fish or Fish & Chips at El Squid Roe… you’re eating premium, eco-forward seafood that stands apart.

​

It’s like farm-to-table… but sea-to-fork.

Why It Matters

Every bite of our Totoaba supports:

 

  • Marine ecosystem restoration in the Sea of Cortez

  • Legal, traceable fishing in Mexico

  • Local Baja economy through responsible aquaculture

  • Our ongoing mission to make fun, food, and ethics co-exist
