    Tamarindo Margharita!
    Jay G.

    Another great newer restaurant in Mazatlan located on the North side of Zona Dorado on the West side of Camaron Saballo. With bright string lights in front and around the parking lot along with the big lit sign you can't miss this restaurant which is set back from the street. They have a large protected area in back which is open and righ along the beach. The service here is good and the waiter does speak enough English although you don't need it because the menu is all in English. The salsa served to start with the traditional large round packaged tortillas was very good. Not spicy but tons of flavor along with a side of pico de gallo of fresh tomato, onion and cilantro. I started my drink order with a Tamarindo Margarita which was better than El Presido which used to be my favorite but that time has passed. For starters I ordered the fish soup which is fantastic. This soup is a clear broth based soup (although they have shrimp bisque if you want a cream based soup) with TONS of fish, including shrimp, clam (fresh large clam in shell), octopus, squid and some white fish which is probably Dorado. The soup had enough seasoning to be extremely tasty and the bowl is very large. If you want to eat light, you could order this and some tortillas and you'd have a nice meal. I then ordered the La Mazatleca Tuna which was served on a bed of mash corn. For those who have eaten at Chevy's, thing of the corn mash they serve you except this one isn't loaded with sugar but fresh mash that can only be tasted down here,. it was fantastic and I like this now better than mashed potatoes. The corn is roasted, then mashed into a thick consistency with pieces of corn throughout. Delicious. The tuna was cooked perfect with a nice sear on the outside and nice rare consistency from edge to edge. Topped with a spicy mayo sauce on top of the nice large piece (probably 5 inch in diameter and 2 inches thick) my tummy was very happy. Overall this is a place to not miss. They do have a lot of unique dishes like the Shrimp Enchiladas with Mole sauce which I am going to get on my next visit. Sit in the back and enjoy the view of the beach and you'll be muy tranquillo! 5 stars

    Ceviche La Mazatleca

    Our second port of call on our 7 days cruise to Mexico was Mazatlan. Instead of opting for a shore excursion, we decided to do our own thing. However, we wouldn't have found La Mazatleca if it wasn't for our cab driver literally taking us for a ride. We actually wanted to go to the Golden Zone to do some shopping. He ended up taking us well beyond that area. Needless to say, we were a little upset. However, as we were cruising along in our Pulmonia, I noticed La Mazatleca. To be honest, you can't miss it. It is the nicest looking beach front restaurant in the area and once our cab driver dropped us off, we ditched the restaurant he suggested we go to and checked out yelp and that is how we officially found La Mazatleca. When we arrived at La Mazatleca, we were seated on the beach. Aside from the great view, the first thing you'll notice is how modern the decor is and comfortable the restaurant is. You'll also notice that there aren't a lot of tourists around To start things off, we had a Margarita. Ok, we ended up having two, but you just can't help yourself with the view. The Mrs. had the La Mazatleca Ceviche. It was good and piled high with shrimp and octopus. I ended up having the swordfish medallions with rice an veggies. The fish was seasoned perfectly. Also, the portions weren't huge so we left feeling full and had room for more Margaritas. Our daughter ended up having a cheeseburger and we ended things with chocolate cake. If you are ever in Mazatlan and find that you cab driver had taken you well beyond the Golden Zone, never fear because all is not lost. Just find your way to La Mazatleca and enjoy. Also, ask for Johnny as your server.

    Whoever marked this restaurant as "has many vegetarian options clearly never ate here: There are zero vegetarian options on the menu - but on request I was only able to order fettuccine Alfredo minus shrimp plus asparagus. The seafood options looked good though and the pasta was well done. the patio is also very nice.

    The food was amazing... the sunset salmon was explosion in your mouth and the oysters was sooo fresh and not sandy at all... the tocos made me want to dance with joy and the grill shrimp was to stay for ... I recommend 100%

    Michelada Clamato
    Melisa M.

    Food was good... micheladas were delicious!!! On the other hand service sucked! We asked for an outdoor table and we were told there weren't any available when there was clearly empty ones... we felt like if they pick and choose who they want to give outside seating.... outside view is beautiful.... after we asked about 2 times we were finally seated outside, but waiter seemed bothered and with an attitude.... we will not be coming back to this restaurant again....

    Seared tuna with slaw salad and potato edges.

    Visiting Mazatlan found this seaside restaurant. Service and food is amazing. Great atmosphere and diverse menu. Ask for Chuay he'll take great care of you.

    Wowee! So amazing and good! We started w a crab, octopus, ahi, and scallop tostada, I had ahi tartare which was a generous amount served w 3 toppings on the side, the hubby got the ahi streak which was perfectly cooked and served on a bed of fresh creamed corn w veggies. Sounds weird but, it was delicious! The sauce on top of this tender amazing fish complimented the ahi in the most delicious way! We weren't too thrilled by our dessert which was pineapple coconut cake... too sweet. Also, the Chardonnay was nice, merlot rather mediocre, Casadores margaritas were good! We had all this, 5 drinks, two appetizer's, an entree and this delicious home made dinner rolls for just $51 US! Oh, and it's located in the golden zone on the beach!!! Why are you still reading.... go eat there!!

    Gorgeous restaurant! The ceviche was delicious, they made a cocktail with tequila, papaya and agua mineral and it was soooo tasty! Tacos and bacon wrapped shrimp was also very good. We had a quick lunch here after arriving on our first day and I hope you stop in here for a drink and food on the beach patio!

    Asked my girlfriend to become my wife here thank you!
    Leo S.

    Came here with a very large party for dinner. They have great service and every one is very friendly we ate outside so we could see the beach and listen to the waves as we ate. The food was priced well and it was such a nice experience, everyone had a great time and we were attended to quickly. The server even offered to take pictures for us since I proposed to my fiancé there. ...so my review might be alittle biased since I proposed on the beach there haha

    See all
