Four enchiladas on each plate...the lovely senorita tried to explain...they were extremely good and we were able to take the extra order back to our hotel for later. Went back for lunch and tried the tacos. Excellent meal enjoyed with a few pina coladas that were obviously made with fresh ingredients (not mixer). Would love it if they served food in the evening.

It was very hot while we dined and there was no breeze. A fan would have been wonderful! The bad: You choose 2 or 3 courses for $1300 or $1500MXN. At this price, you expect really exceptional food. This just wasn't the case for us. I ordered the steak, which came with a green sauce and potatoes. The potatoes were delicious. The filet was more like a sirloin but was more tough than a sirloin. It was very disappointing, but more than that, when the server asked how everything was, he seemed as if he already knew the steak was tough. I ended up getting the coconut shrimp (4) instead. They were served on a bed of cooked and spiced apples along with a salad rolled up in thinly sliced jicama similar to a sushi roll. The second course I ordered was dessert. The pictures don't do the presentation justice because it is so dark, but the food is beautiful. Paying this much for coconut shrimp and dessert (basically a molten lava cake with vanilla ice cream) really left me feeling very disappointed. Would not recommend nor return.

They have a full menu of seafood, steak, chicken, pasta, pizza, salad and other offerings in English. The dining area is covered and they have fans to increase air flow and umbrellas to block sun.

I had an incredible mahi mahi and avocado ceviche with fresh lime juice and cucumber, my husband had a fresh spinach salad with balsamic and prosciutto, and his main was a grilled octopus with light chili oil (not spicy) ... and my fresh limeade was 10/10 and would order that and the ceviche again .

The hot chocolate was ok, but I'm a snob with that beverage. Smoothie was perfect and the toast with jam was great surprise. I give it 5 stars, it's also really affordable and made with quality ingredients. Full breakfast for under $20. Sadly, many Canadian & US citizen tourists complain that prices are high. They are a 1/4 of the cost of your home countries. Mexicans need to live, too. I will say to the negative reviews, you don't order steak or beef in Zihuatanejo. Only a few places do a ribeye ok. Chicken and pork based meals are done well.

With plastic chairs they should put cushions on top to prevent sweating. (Our hotel has cushions on the outdoor dining areas because it's so hot here and sitting outside can be uncomfortable without a cushion). For our meal we ordered the specials. While beautifully plated somehow it lacked a little flavor on mine. My hubby had prawns with sailfish in garlic butter. Also we were given a fish amuse bouche which had 3 chili pepper condiments. They were all very very spicy. I barely had any, like a tiny taste and my husband as well, the result later being that my husband and and I were pretty sick all night and the next day. He actually had to go to the doctor 2 days later as he was still quite ill and in pain. While There was a significant burning in my stomach from the chili acid, he believes his situation was probably some bacteria in the food which is too bad because the restaurant is pretty upscale and clean so I doubt we got it from the ice. Anyways we can't go back. I also think the waiters could check on the diners to see how the food is after you start eating to make sure it's ok, like other waiters at these surrounding restaurants do. Somehow This never happened.
