I'm updating my previous 5-star review based on my lunch at Pineda yesterday…read more I'm lowering my assessment to FOUR stars because, while the quality of the food, service, and facilities are still top notch, the owners have continued to raise prices to the point where the value is questionable. One example (based on my menu photo in 2021): The zarandeado then was $190. It's now $445. That's a pretty significant jump. In addition to the increased prices they've dropped many items from their menu and in some cases reduced portions. My waiter told me that they removed the rice and bean side dishes from the "family platters" and the Mexicans, especially, were (!understatement alert!) "displeased." I can understand why: Prices up; selection and quantity down. The impact of this business decision shows. I've been there now a couple of times in Peak Snowbird Season and both times there's been no problem getting a table; it's just not nearly as crowded as it has been previously. Shame, really. I like this place; the food is great, the service is great, the cleanliness is great, the view is great. But coming in with smaller portions, reduced choices, and increased prices is really taking its toll on Pineda. PS: While the Tostada Mixta is one of the starters that's been stripped from the menu, my waiter was kind enough to persuade the kitchen to make one for me anyway (market price).

It was recommended - but we had a mixed experience…read more Best parts: grilled snapper (Zarandeado) was excellent. Shrimp ceviche was good. Not so great: - VERY loud at 2pm on a weekday. Had like 3 mariachi bands all around playing different music which made for NOT a relaxing meal. - lobsters were tiny and full of eggs. The amount of meat from one lobster was the size of one of my fingers. Maybe harvest lobsters *after* they have laid eggs so the population is sustainable? I would not order these again. - fish ceviche was pulverized and not great texture or flavor - people try to sell things at your table every 2 minutes. Also doesn't make for a relaxing meal. They have some good food but seems like they are going for quantity of people which sacrifices quality. Or maybe they treat locals better than tourists? They did tell us that multiple open tables in the best areas were "reserved". So we were seated on the edge between restaurants.
