A departure from the predictable. A focus on the craft.

On Friday the 13th, Agave Culinary led by Chef Mariano Balderas takes over the Culinary Studio for Loteria del Mar—a minimalist, high-skill exploration of Baja gastronomy. We are stripping away the cliché to focus on three pillars: Technique, Iconography, and Sea.

The "Agave Specialty" Menu:

​

• The Chef’s Token: Arrive to a pre-plated signature Tuna Sashimi Tostada with avocado and our signature Salsa Macha.

​

• The Molcajete Lab: Hand-grind your own charred Salsas (Red & Green) and creamy Guacamole.

​

• The Masa Masterclass: Master the "Press & Puff" as you create fresh corn tortillas from scratch.

​

• The Baja Fry: Learn the professional "drench and fry" technique for crispy, airy, golden white fish tacos.

​

 

BYOB - We provide the Agave Mixer Bar—fresh-squeezed lime, syrups, spicy pineapple bases, and Tajin. Whether it’s your favorite Blanco Tequila, a chilled Rosé, or a crisp Pacifico, we have the ice, glassware & fresh garnishes to perfect your pour.

 

Lotería del Mar is designed for curious eaters, passionate home cooks, and professionals who value skill, restraint, and flavor over spectacle.

 

Come for the tacos.
Leave with technique.
