Puerto Bravo

Bib Gourmand • Mexican, Seafood. Blink and you'll miss this quaint little spot on bustling Gerrard. Drawing inspiration from Mexico, the menu is equally compact and leans heavily on seafood in the form of crisp tostadas and generously built tacos. Indeed, this little kitchen doles out bold flavors like the wera tostada, a riot of colors and textures featuring octopus, shrimp and spicy macha mayo. The tuna tostada, meanwhile, leans Asian with soy sauce and sesame oil. For tacos, consider sautéed shrimp jolted with salsa brava or charbroiled octopus tossed with onions and poblanos. Finish with something sweet, like the classic carlota made with soft biscuits, condensed milk and cream cheese.
