    Tortillas served in their own cloth covering
    Peter M.

    There was still unfinished restaurant business. So, on my last full day in Mazatlan, I headed to Los Arcos for lunch. It is a nicely spaced dining area, divided into two sections with elegant tables, on both sides. One section has views of the street, the other is more interior. There is a nice selection of music playing in the background. An abundance of attentive servers prevail. It was time to order. I knew what I wanted before getting here. My server confirmed that it was the number one ordered item. It was the Camarones Arcos Mazatlan. It consists of 6 good sized butterflied shrimp, shell, head and tail on, prepared with their special sauce and baked. To say it simply, this dish exceeded my expectations and completely blew me away (see my photos, actually they fail to do justice). No words to describe the intoxicating flavor, and tenderness of the shrimp. The shell just came off effortlessly, when nudged. Clearly one of the two best baked/grilled shrimp dishes I've ever had (the other one was grilled, and savored in Colombo, Sri Lanka). So, I had to come back here for dinner too. A rarity for me, because I am always looking for new and different dining mines, at every opportunity. Now, I am here for dinner. Complimentary salsas (rojo and verde), same as at lunch, exuding with exciting freshness and taste. Tortillas come wrapped in a circular covering (brilliant, to keep them warm, moist, fresh). Also a small complimentary plate with multiple onion cube slices and a half jalapeno serving. Sautéed with a mild brown sauce served at ambient temperature. Unmatched and wonderful. See my photos. I started with the shrimp soup that was really amazing. Soups must be hot. This was that, also with a balanced mix of spices. Then, the main, the Filete Lola Beltran. Never heard or seen anything like this. Fish baked completely covered in cheese, optimally blistered and browned, with sprinkles of thick bacon bits. It was unique and came accompanied with halved roasted baby potatoes, I evened cubed carrots, broccoli pieces and one spear of tender succulent asparagus. The other vegetables tasted good, but were dry and could have used moisture and butter to make it more divine. Finally, for dessert, the Tsunami. Yes, I'm always looking for something new. This concoction is unveiled at the table to reveal a cylindrical layered cake that, once exposed via a plastic wrap, overflows with sauces during prime time (see my picture of the exposed and half eaten product). Los Arcos did not disappoint. It delivered in unique menu items, exceptional quality of food, high quality customer attention and superb multi server service. Taken all together, this dining destination capped an unforgettable culinary experience, in this wonderful, warm and magnetic Mexican city, called Mazatlan.

    Food was delicious and the staff very friendly. They even offer complimentary appetizer of fresh raw fish. So much food I had to take half home. They even have a kids room for the little ones to play inside.

    Lobster Soup
    Amanda T.

    My friends's taxi driver had mentioned that this place was delicious so we decided to check it out on a Saturday evening to celebrate my friend's birthday. We didn't have a reservation but got seated right away (even though the restaurant was almost packed). Immediately, we noticed really attentive staff who pulled the chairs out for us and provided a stand to hold our bags. The menu was in English, which was great as we were tourists who didn't speak Spanish. Everything looked so good, so we asked for some recommendations. We ordered several dishes to share amongst 3 people. The seafood platter was so good!! There was a variety of everything (ceviche, shrimp, octopus, oysters) and everything was so fresh. Definitely recommend getting this dish if you come here with several people. The lobster soup was also good, there was an option for it to come in a bread bowl but we opted for a normal bowl since we knew we were going to order a lot of food. Very thick and flavorful, I also recommend trying this dish. The lobster dish (I don't remember it's exact name) wasn't my favorite. It was good, but I think the other dishes were more memorable. The lobster dish was really heavy and because it was topped with a few things, I wasn't focused on the lobster itself. The grilled octopus was so good! It came with some grilled potatoes as well, but the flavor of the grilled octopus was so nice and refreshing! A bit citrusy and not overcooked. Lastly, their cocktails were delicious. I got their pina colada and loved it. My friends liked their drinks too. Since we were celebrating my friend's birthday, the staff had a mariachi sing for her with a complimentary dulce de leche cake and a sparkler candle. We had such an amazing experience at this place and definitely recommend coming here if you are in the area!!!

    Ceviche de pescado.

    My wife and I went here for dinner for the first time. We were immediately greeted by the staff opening the door for us and seating us right away. Great beer, wine and cocktail selection with lots of appetizers to pick from. Their ceviche was some of the best I've eaten in Mexico. We ordered a fish fillet and coconut shrimp as main courses. Absolutely outstanding and super fresh. Very attentive staff and quite personable. Very, very clean restaurant and highly recommend. We will be back.

    Coctel de camarón

    Came to Mazatlán for a family reunion/vacation for 5 days and came to this place 2 nights in a row because we enjoyed it that much! The seafood here is so fresh and tasty. We ordered oysters and aguachiles and the ceviches were amazing. To drink I had the passion fruit drink and it taste so refreshingly good! For dessert my favorite was the churros! Dipping them in their cajeta and lechera sauce, mmmmm! The service is outstanding, all servers are just waiting by your table to see if anything is needed and my 2 year old was asleep so they brought her a kids mattress to put on two chairs, they were so accommodating with my 3 under 3 babies. The restaurant is very modern with nautical theme, feels upscale, very nice restaurant! I highly recommended!

    Mescal drink was so yummy we now try and mimic it at home!!!

    Wow. Wow. Wow. We have been coming to Mazatlan for years and plan to make it our retirement home and this will be a frequent spot!! I was hesitant to try a chain restaurant but after talking to and hearing from TONS of locals.... We took the leap!! Ok so first of all the food.... Amazing!! Fresh!! Fantastic!!! Get the oysters!!! Cooked, raw or Rockefeller you will NOT be disappointed. If you are looking to eat with a huge crowd and wait for a table don't go before 830pm!! We went at 730pm and while there were people there it was not packed and we didn't have to wait. Service... On. Point!!! Attentive. Amazing. Helpful and yet not over bearing. Price..... Well living in the Bay Area of California we have paid over $100 for just breakfast. So when we came here we ordered liberally because we were treating our selves for our 15 year wedding anniversary. I was ready to be shocked by the high bill!!! Yup.... $71..... oh and that was WITH tip.

    This mango drink looks really good, but when I tasted it, it was not sweet at all and did not taste like mango. Has no flavor.
    Phuong T.

    Overall, we will come back to eat the ceviche and the churros and the free chips and condiments. The other items we ate wasn't that good.

    Excellent food and awesome service. I had the fish filled with octopus and my wife the grilled fish and we both enjoyed it.
