Honestly, some of the best tasting food at Puerto Escondido. We went there for breakfast, and it was phenomenal. The place It has a co-working atmosphere, but at the same time family-friendly. The service was a bit slow, that was to be expected, we went there on December 31st! As we arrived, there was a long line of people waiting to get in, so I assume it’s a pretty trending place to eat at in Puerto Escondido.

Why go anywhere else when this place has the best and freshest seafood made to order. The restaurant is a favorite of locals’ and the service is very good. Food comes out hot and fast and delicious. Best of all it offers a good price on food and drinks. Can’t think of anything bad about this place. Edit: I went somewhere else for lunch and deeply regretted it.

We discovered this gem last year and returned with friends this year. Great staff and delicious food! We’ve tried a number of dishes and they are all wonderful- shout for coconut shrimp! And the salsas! So many!

The food was very delicious. I initially looked this place up and decided to try it because of its great reviews and it didn’t disappoint. It felt very much like a local joint which made it feel welcoming. The food and service were both great.

Amazing, fresh and flavourful seafood at a good price. The octopus cocktail and shrimp tostada were both perfect. Lots of sauces were available on the table and the meal was served with something that seemed like a crispy tortilla but I’m not sure what it was called! The staff was very kind and helpful, we felt welcome as tourists!
