    This was the small platter

    We came for Morhers Day and a Birthday celebration. No kids menu. Only option was quesadilla and fries. We ordered chicken fajitas with nothing and it was salty. We notified them they did them again. Still same. Then we consumed about $8,000 pesos. We asked for boxes and they gave us 3. Then we asked for more because honestly we weren't going to eat the food. Then one lady told us we can't give you anymore. I told her charge us for the containers if you need to. I have came here previously because we were recommended and it has been good before. This will be the last time we will be here. I am a special needs mom and always look for options for my children. They should better their service and be more helpful. We just decided to put food in containers and to the people in the street. So it wont go to waste

    Calamar Empanizado

    Seafood Combination: Half Lobster, Shrimp Scampi, and Garlic Fish served with Steamed Vegetables, Butter, Yellow Rice, Refried Beans and Flour Tortillas. The atmosphere in this place was fun and lively. A live moving band took requests from patrons and the ocean crashed all around the outdoor space. Unfortunately we didn't have the best view of the ocean since the sills were covered up with tarp, perhaps because of rain? Our waiter was attentive and we were served very quickly. The margarita wasn't great, but not bad either. I really enjoyed the Calamar Empanizado, Fried and Battered Squid, with ranch and lemon juice, especially because it came in long sticks that reminded me of mozarella sticks instead of the stereotypical round tubes. The texture and flavor was spot on! The Camarones Costa Azul, Shrimp stuffed with Lobster, wrapped in Bacon and Fried in batter with a sweet sauce, was also absolutely incredible! I ordered the Seafood Combo and was pleased with the Lobster and Garlic Fish, which was super tender, but the shrimp were just okay and the steamed vegetables were disgusting. I don't understand why they would serve such poorly prepared vegetables that looked and tasted like a freezer pack of a California Veggie Mix when there's an abundance of fresh produce in Mexico? Overall we enjoyed dining at this restaurant while vacationing in the area, but it wasn't the best.

    Awesome deal $18 Lobster, Rice and Beans served with some fresh Tortilla plus one Margarita or Teqila Shot! We added Oyster which was a great addition to the meal. Beautiful view of the ocean.

    Years ago, I visited this place. I brought my parents with me this time, and nothing has changed here. The shrimp and lobster were absolutely mouthwatering! The service was quick and amiable. The setting, with its breathtaking ocean view, was absolutely stunning. Any time I am in Rosarito, I will be sure to drive and stop by. Hace años visité este lugar. Esta vez traje a mis padres conmigo y nada ha cambiado aquí. ¡Los camarones y la langosta eran absolutamente deliciosos! El servicio fue rápido y amable. El entorno, con su impresionante vista al mar, era absolutamente impresionante. Cada vez que estoy en Rosarito, me aseguro de pasar por aquí.

    Band leader

    Food was ok but be carful when going when it's slow, the Mariachi band will ask you to play some songs then tell you it's $20 per song after singing 2 or 3. Then pressure you to pay them, side note the waiter I believe is in on it also. Terrible way to treat your customers, yes I'm a tourist and should have known better not to ask if they charge. Was having a good time until that point ruined my meal and experience, I won't be going back. Terrible service also warning they will try to up sell you the lobster to get more than you can eat. I also read on a review that some one had a problem with charging there, when I went 1/13/2026 the waiter told me they only take cash, very shady place I will be only going to Ortegas down the street from now on. Pictures of the band I believe they play at different restaurants down there warning if you see them.

    For me, a visit across the international border from San Diego to Tijuana is fun, but incomplete. Unless, of course, you visit Puerto Nuevo's Lobster Village. Therefore, I made my pilgrimage to this fisherman's town after over a decade, to have lunch at Angel Del Mar, in Puerto Nuevo. The open air terrace had ample seating, and was packed even after 2:30 pm. Everyone was here for the same thing - Lobster. I had disciplined myself and skipped breakfast (only coffee), so by the time I got here, I was ready to indulge. I ordered the large lobster, regular Puerto Nuevo Style. The meat was slightly tough, but had flavor. I also thought the lobster did not deserve to be called a large, made my server aware that I was duped. After devouring it, I had space for another and this time ordered the medium. When it came to the table, the server said he was giving me a large, but was charging me the price of a medium for this second one. This time the meat was succulent, tender with enhanced flavor. My buddy had the combination of lobster, fish and shrimp. Tortillas were fresh and very tasty. Pico de Gallo and Chili Salsas were excellent. Definitely worth the trek here, and I would do it again, in a heartbeat.

    We ate here last night the food was really good. The service was great. The restaurant is nice looking and has a great view of the ocean.

    Lobster is delicious , ambiance is traditional and the view is nice. The price is better and the service was good as well.

    Been coming to Puerto Nuevo for decades, but recently have started coming the Angel Del Mar the last few years. The food is delicious and the view is amazing. The tortillas are hand made and to die for. I have a seafood allergy and they always make sure to prep my food separately. I know it's weird for me to come here, but my wife loves it. The server Eduardo has been serving us the last few visits and he's been a rock star making us all feel at home. If you're going to Puerto Nuevo, check them out... they're straight down the main entrance all the way to the end.

    Michelada
    Shirly R.

    Michelada was good, service was iffy. I had to wait a really long time and have another waiter call our waiter when we were ready to head out. I didn't like what I ordered (my mistake for not asking if it would be in black sauce) I tried to switch it but they said no. Personally the cóctel was tasteless and had way more tomato and cucumber than anything else. Either way I wasn't relying on them to switch it but overall I think there are better places in Puerto Nuevo with the same prices but EXCELLENT customer service. I will not be going to Angel Del Mar again.

    such an awesome experience having lunch here! getting a beautiful ocean view, choosing which fresh lobster, and enjoying it with friends was great. The service was great, there was live music, again - incredible view/location, and everyone enjoyed their meals! Another favorite was the bacon wrapped fried shrimp & lobster. Super great meal - highly recommend!

    Large seafood platter, includes 8 lobster halves
    Veronica L.

    This place was beautiful and the food was fantastic. We ordered the platter for 8 which had everything seafood you can think of on it. It also came with refried beans, rice and homemade flour tortillas. Drinks were pretty good as well. View was pretty amazing. Service was quick and he was very attentive. 9 of us ate, drank and it was only 300 US dollars. We tipped 60.00 us as well. Forgot to take pics of 2 additional plates

    Lobster, ceviche, and rice and beans
    Alyssa O.

    Angel's Del Mar is amazing! The wait staff is so attentive and kind, the view of the ocean is beautiful, and the live music is fun and lively. We ordered the shrimp ceviche and large lobsters (which came with rice, and beans and tortillas). The portions are huge and the lobster was cooked to perfection. It was a perfect meal!

    After coming here for 25 years I can't believe I am just now writing a review. That being said,…read moredecades ago this review would have been a strong 5 stars but now we are teetering on a high three, low four. The pricing has become ridiculous for this little lobster village. You're no longer getting a deal but you're paying for the view, the vibe, and the fact that you pinch yourself and say to yourself, "I'm only about an hour from home." Now that's pretty cool. The lobster still holds up and when dipped in the clarified butter with those homemade tortillas and refried beans/rice, you have to simply savor the moment. It's delicious. Grab a cold Tecate, a shot of tequila, and enjoy the view. It's so uniquely Baja.

    My first time place looks over crowded and hard to get but the was a valet parking area easy. Once…read morewe going in the is more than plenty of tables overlooking the ocean with a great view. There is live music going in the background and a great atmosphere. The waiter we did get was not good at explaining how the lobster plates were served or what should we order for 2 ppl. When the food came out even thought it was not as much as expected it was delicious. Lobster was cooked to perfection the beans and handmade flour tortillas amazing. We also got bacon wrapped shrimp, so good. Aside from a bad waiter place was Amazing!! P.S. if you get the lobster from the menu with 4 pieces only really get 1 lobster split in 2

I'm glad that it was a much better experience than what I expected. The restaurant is two stories high and has a beautiful view of the ocean.

We have been coming here for 25 years and we bring different friends and it has never let us down! So perfect! Highly Recommend! It is not the fanciest, it's a bit rustic but for the price and flavor we love it! Get the lobster special and it comes with a margarita, beans, rice, fresh flour tortillas, limes, drawn butter, and salsa. So delicious, traditional, and filling. The menu has other seafood and non seafood items. Sometimes a mariachi or a norteño banda will play. Tip: ask the singers how much they charge per song before you start requesting. Some charge between $10-$20 per song. It gets hot in the downstairs deck so bring a hat, sunglasses, and a coverup. They do have a tarp that covers partially. But you cannot beat the sun and the salt air! Service is always wonderful! Same staff has been there forever! Parking: When you pull up to the front they usually have a few spaces reserved for the restraint we always tip the parking guy. He watches to ensure your car is safe. They have indoor seating upstairs with a good view. But I like outside better! I wish I could give 4.5 stars because we love it but some upgrades are needed, some walls are insider construction. Clean restrooms.
