I've been working my way through the menus and so far everything has been quite delicious. My favorite so far being the costillas in salsa verde, pork ribs slow simmered in a beautifully seasoned salsa verde with onions and nopales. Hearty, porky, saucy deliciousness complimented with rice, beans and your choice of corn or flour tortillas. Open for breakfast, lunch 7 am to 4 pm 7 days a week. When you want food not made for the tourists this is the place. I can't recommend this place enough.

It's made to be a quick in-and-out experience. There's only a few tables, so if you come during a rush period, you may have to take those tacos to go. Definitely recommend this spot for your next TJ visit.

For a 2000Mx pesos meal for four people, this feels unfair, especially since rice and beans traditionally come with the dish. The tiny portions forced us to order more and pay extra. This is unfair for clientele that pays top dollar into a Mexican economy... off the flavor alone Don Luis has always been five stars. Other clients have warned us about this , and I don't like to see people being taken advantage of. Español: La comida es tan buena como siempre, y la langosta es de las mejores. Sin embargo, las porciones de arroz y frijoles ahora son muy pequeñas comparadas con antes. Para una cuenta de $2000 ppara cuatro personas, esto resulta injusto, sobre todo porque el arroz y los frijoles tradicionalmente vienen incluidos. Las porciones tan reducidas nos obligaron a pedir más y pagar de nuevo. Aún teniendo el dinero para pagarlo, es injusto. Hablando solamente del sabor don Luis siempre ha sido cinco estrellas. El suceso de las porciones ya se nos había mencionado por otros clientes, y no me gusta ver que se aprovechen los negocios de la gente que les paga.

Hi. White lady here who will kill for a good menudo…read more I had it on good advice that this was the right thing to order here, and so, of course, I did. And, of course, I ordered it with pata (the pig's foot that turns into a glutenous bone-lollipop that needs to be picked up with your fingers and lovingly slurped until clean). That makes it authentico and magnificent beyond words. The broth is rich in flavor and red in color. The tripe is very tender and well cleaned. A judicious amount of hominy. And here they bring a separate dish containing dried oregano, chopped onions and cilantro, chile flakes, and limes. Rub the oregano between your palms, then add copious amounts of all of the above, let the onion simmer for just a moment, then dig in. Within moments you will find yourself so preoccupied you will forget how to speak. Good stuff and plenty of it. Mr. B wanted shrimp in garlic butter (mojo de ajo). He was envious of my shrimp from the night before at Ruben's, but it paled in comparison. Too bad. The refried beans, now that was another story. So wonderful. It's the lard, baby, lard. The Mexican hot chocolate was yummy. The chips and salsa? Meh. Save room in your stomach for the soft, hot tortillas that come later. You can use US dollars here, and the wifi is free. Just ask for the password. I don't need the excuse of a hangover to come here for menudo.

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.

Not bad--but not what you'd expect for the price. The view is nice, but service was slow. Ironically, the best parts of the experience were the valet and the fresh tortillas--not the lobster itself. Overall, if you're coming to Puerto Nuevo for great lobster, I'd recommend trying somewhere else.
