Cortez Seafood and Cocktail

Let me begin my review with the hostess: She was the best, super, super friendly and pleasant, so we were off to a good start. The food: Small plates had good flavors, small portions, a little pricey if you ask me, but really fresh. Big plates were off the charts Delicious!!!
Our server, was nice and he checked on you constantly.
Bottom line I might be back. :)

The food was excellent! I had the grilled whole snapper, and the flavor was wonderful. My wife had swordfish, also very good. Her vegetables were also grilled, her zucchini was almost whole. It was pricier than I expected, e.g. we had to pay for the little basket of bread, then again it was fresh baked, steaming hot, and served with a special butter. The menu online didn't include any desserts, but they had a couple, we shared flan. We sat inside, and it was quite cold, my wife brought a sweater.

Hands down, Raleigh's best restaurant. Do you see that burger? El Fish Mac! Best GD burger ever. Hand cut fries are outta this world, too. First rate cocktails. Excellent oysters. Try the bread and weed butter. You won't regret it - any of it!

I don't have enough positive to say about Cortez. The food was amazing. The service was on point. The atmosphere was very welcoming. All the plants are unique. This is a great date night spot.
