About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Great for fine wines
Casual Oyster Bar and Grill serves up some of the country´s freshest seafood. La Docena Providencia is a small and intimate iconic restaurant in Guadalajara, a must. A culinary experience.

San Pellegrino´s Latin America´s 50 Best Restaurants Award for its quality and ambience.

Chef Tomas Bermudez keeps a keen eye on all that enters the kitchen, sourcing the highest quality seafood mostly from the Pacific Coast of Mexico and supporting local small scale producers for vegetables and meat.

Great wine list with many natural options in it.
The seasonal cocktail list is worth a try.

When reserving it is not possible to guarantee a specific table or location in the restaurant, although we always try to do our best. We have 10 minutes tolerance for reservation times, after that it is a no show. We only assign tables to complete parties, in case not everybody is present we assign a smaller table. There is a penalty of $250 pesos for no shows or incomplete groups.

    Todo estuvo muy bien. Excepto la música, muy ruidosa y no puede uno platicar. Voy a pensar en regresar. No se porque recientemente en varios restaurantes ponen el sonido de la música muy alto. Esto me parece muy mal!!!

    Food was amazing! Wish the music wasn’t so loud you have to scream at everyone when trying to talk.

    We reserved a table days in advance and confirmed our reservation. We were given a table directly in front of the kitchen area, hot and noisy. We said no to that table and were brought to the smoking area. That was only option given. We took the table and luckily it was windy since people were smoking around us. The receptionist didn’t seem to care and just walked away. Very poor customer service. The rest of the evening was fine but 330 pesos for fish (1 small piece) and chips was exaggerated. We have been to this restaurant before and it was a much better reception and food.

    La comida, el servicio y el ambiente excelentes; recomendable reservar antes. Los ostiones a las brasas, la almeja y el tataki de atún memorables.
