This is where you go for fresh shrimp or fish tacos and watch the world go by. Their seafood burritos are also fantastic. Super casual.

I have not eaten here yet, but my friends say this is THE best al pastor Torta! And they’ve tried ALL the taco carts!

Many a happy hour has been spent on the beach at Langostinos. From 4pm-8pm they have a great selection of blended drinks for about 80 pesos. Not the dixie cup size…the fishbowl size. Food can be pretty decent and is reasonably priced as well.

This is my favorite breakfast place! Just across the street from the condo and you will sit in a lovely courtyard. Their food is excellent and some of the best customer service in town!

If you are craving pastor tacos and you don’t want to wait hours at Panchos or eat at a stand, Sonorita is an excellent choice. Inside seating and decent service. In the mornings it becomes a breakfast place serving all different types of chilaquiles.

It’s tough to find another churro guy in this end of town. Go early. He sells out quick!

Yes, the touristy spot on the corner. It’s loud and crowded but they know how to serve a delicious cold Marg of many flavors and the food is good. The molcajete is enough for two people!

Lovely setting and really great food for a surprisingly decent price. If they ask you if you want mimosas, heads up. They’re 95 pesos ($4.50US), but if they’re a specialty mimosa, the price may go up to 145 pesos. When the come around with breakfast sweets, do try the apple strudel or the cinnamon thingy.
