Merka Restaurant - Santa Marta

The seafood soup is the best food I have eaten in Colombia! The waiter was also a top dude and had a great criminal! A clear consent from me. We're almost over and are glad we didn't do it!

Rated as No. 7 in Santa Marta for seafood and not disappointed. The fried whole fish was delicious and super generous in the Porton. The host was really friendly and spoke with limited English, but he did his best to welcome us in his restaurant. It was a nice meal. The address is Calle 10c. The map on the Tripadvisor shows a place elsewhere, so just check if you are in the right place.

The service is excellent and has air conditioning. The owners and staff bend backwards to make sure everything is great. Seafood is the main thing. Santa Marta is not NY, so don't expect NY quality. But for Santa Marta this is the place for a traditional seafood meal.

I had some kind of special with fish and shrimp, and a huge strawberry juice. Absolutely fantastic. The owner was super friendly. I also ate at a couple of the fancier tourist-oriented places near the Parque de los Novios. This was a hundred times better.
