Great restaurant at the marina. Beautiful views of the marina and surrounding area. You can enjoy eating, while watching the whales play in the bay. All the servers are super friendly, very proper and very accommodating. The food is tasty, but a little on the expensive side for Mexico. Every meal I tried was delicious and fresh. The pear tart dessert is a must try. read more

Food, service and location are all superb! As was the cocktails! Best mimosa and mango margarita yet during our trip! Yonathan was our server and he was awesome! We tried the seafood Molcajete, delish! It came out bubbling! It was so good! I had a burger, I was missing home lol. One of the best burgers I have ever tasted?! And I have eaten my fair share of them. I was blown away by how good it was! That good! My son got the shrimp which I tasted and they were also well cooked and good. You Have to try their puff pastry cake!! It's layers of puff pastry with banana icecream in between, butterscotch sauce and carmelized walnuts!!! We tried two sushi rolls, they were ok not mind blowing so I wouldn't recommend that but we were very happy with everything else we tried. read more

I was very pleasantly surprised after finally giving La Peska a visit for a Sunday brunch. Having seen so many billboards and advertisements for La Peska, I was expecting it to be overpriced and touristy. I was surprised that the menu was not nearly as expensive as what I had expected. And the food was absolutely delicious. Beautiful presentation and very flavorful. The service was impeccable as well. We had the drink special of the day, which was like a tequila sunrise, but with mezcal in place of the tequila, and the addition of pineapple and mango juice. It was amazing as well. We will definitely be returning in the near future. 5 stars for sure!! read more

The view is nice. It's a view of the marina. The ambiance is nice. The staff was nice. The drinks were ok. My wife's salad was great. BUT.. I ordered 2 tacos. The crusty cheese shrimp and the crusty cheese beef filet. We've been in Mexico 6 weeks and hands down the worst tacos I've had. The shrimp was ok.. nothing worth mentioning but wasn't bad. The beef filet tasted like the top came off the salt shaker as they were seasoning it . Almost inedible read more

The views are awesome and the service is good. The food, is a different story. We order four things. -The guacamole was creamy. -The fish for the ceviche didn't taste fresh -The two whole fried fish we ordered were room temperature and soggy when served. Side note, this is my mother's 4th time at this restaurant over the years. She was disappointed with the bad quality of the food. I wouldn't recommend the food here. An appetizer with some drinks while enjoying the views is ideal here. read more

The food is excellent, beautifully prepared and very tasty. As you would expect from a restaurant that is pricey by local standards (US$50-US75 per person), the fish is cooked perfectly and nicely seasoned. The wait staff is attentive and friendly. My only criticism was the cocktails (margaritas and caipirinhas) our table had were watery, not very flavorful, and weak in alcohol. The bartender, at least tonight, was is a much lesser league than the cooks and waitstaff. read more

We ended up dining here twice during our trip, once with our toes in the sand, and once inside when the wind picked up. Both experiences were great. The seafood is fresh, flavorful, and honestly priced so much better than what we'd pay back home. I ordered the whole filet of Red Snapper and asked them to add garlic, and wow, I'm so glad I did. The garlic soaked into that perfectly crispy skin and made every bite extra delicious. Crunchy, garlicky, fresh... it was simple but so good. The staff was friendly and welcoming. Great spot!
