“ This is always a must very time we come to town. Never had a bad experience here. ”
“ We had a table on the beach, with the water 20 ft away. I had the best oysters that i have found in Mexico and a grilled whole red snapper that was fabulous. The prices were very reasonable, especially compared to the resort where we were staying. Well worth the cost of a taxi ride. ”
“ Good beachside restaurant. Delicious fish tacos and guacamole. Lots of street vendors coming by the table and one girl set up a speaker and had people pay her to play songs off Spotify, very loudly, which ruined the atmosphere. Service was friendly and attentive. ”
