    Shrimp parmigiana, absolutely delicious
    Jon T.

    This was our favorite dinner we had during our stay. It's Italian food and they make use of all the fresh seafood Puerto Peñasco catches. You can eat on a patio right on the beach. Even in July, it wasn't too hot out there around 6pm. People even go down to the beach and swim after dinner! Not many places you can do that. The food is perfect. My shrimp parmigiana was cooked just right, it wasn't soft but it melts in your mouth. The sauce & cheese was delicious. The appetizer was fried calamari which came with a nice spicy marinara. My girlfriend ordered the blackened grouper which was also delicious. Complete with an icy cold coke and ocean view, this was my favorite meal in Rocky Point. Service was very friendly and they took great care of us. As a bonus, there's also a very sweet, friendly cat who was out in the parking lot. I said hi to him and he was waiting on my car when we were done. I gave him some left over grouper. So watch out for him as you drive in, and if you see "Grouper", go say hi to him. We'll definitely go back to Mare Blu!

    Farfalle Filet

    This review is based on the restaurants in Puerto Penasco, Sonora, Mexico. We have been going to Puerto Penasco for many years but have never dined at Mare Blu Ristorante. We are so happy we finally decided to make a reservation for dinner. It was my husband's birthday and everything from start to finish was perfect. The restaurant is very nice, all white with blue accents and white table cloths. Where in Puerto Penasco can you dress up and dine with white table cloths! We arrived a little early so we could have a drink at the bar before dinner. The hostess immediately greeted us with a huge smile and directed us the bar. Our bartender, Federico was very polite and again, a huge smile. We asked to sit by the window so we could see the ocean and they had a table reserved for us which was perfect. Elan was our server, was attentive and never left us waiting for anything. In addition, the other staff such as food delivery and bus boys were all wonderful. They start by serving warm and delicious bread rolls and butter. We ordered the caprese salad as a starter which was good. The mozzarella was a little dry for us but tomatoes were fresh. For entrees we ordered the Farfalle Con Filetto. Farfalle pasta in a creamy aloutte alfredo sauce, Tenderloin filet, mushrooms, onion, spinach and garlic. My husband ordered the Penne Alma Vodka. Penne pasta in a bodka flamed panna rosa sauce. Added Shrimp. Each entree came with a side salad. Both dishes were absolutely delicious and plentiful. In addition, they brought a piece of cake for my husband's birthday! We were told they have a pianist on Friday, Saturday and Tuesday nights. We really enjoyed our experience and will make Mare Blu and regular dining spot every visit to PP going forward.

    Beautiful location and interior. We sat outside during sunset and it was perfect. They have some great wine options, including wines from Mexico. Our server was great & knowledgeable about the menu! The food was good. The bruschetta was fresh & the blackened grouper was outstanding. The penne pasta was good, but could have used a little more flavor. We ended the nights with some cocktails that were 10/10!

    Shrimp Brioni with steamed veggies

    My husband and I wanted to have a nice romantic dinner on our last night here in Rocky Point. This place did not disappoint. The food was great, our waiter Valentin was very attentive and explained the dishes very well. My husband had a sangria and I had a sweet wine. Your dishes are removed when you finish eating and the view from Inside the restaurant is beautiful. We will definitely come back. My husband had a seabass allá pescadora and I had Shrimp Brioni. Chefs kiss! We also ordered an appetizer which was the calamari and it was delish. Recommend this place for sure

    Clam chowder in bread bowl
    Dean B.

    Great place in Rocky Point. One of the few upscale restaurants for white tablecloth dining. Good vibe although was a little loud inside tonight. Depending on weather and time of year, the patio can be marvelous and a great spot of r sunset dining. Good location at the end of Sandy Beach. Be mindful it's a dirt road for the last stretch from about at the Esmerelda to the restaurant. The clam chowder is fantastic. A must get each visit. If you're looking for fish fillet, the seabass is good but the flounder better, albeit much lighter. The Mare Blu shrimp was delicious also and had a little unexpected heat. The Alfredo was basic but delicious as well. I believe you can get any of the pastas as a side dish. Very nice wine list with a few nice Italian and Mexican wines to choose from. Good desserts as well and ice joyed both the cannoli and the cheesecake. A few oddities about the menu where things are listed without sides and came with unexpected side dishes, so ask the waiter to clarify. Overall, great meal tonight on my second visit this year. Seems to be consistently good. Recommended. Will go back.

    Restaurant was clean with great views and great service. I had the blackened grouper with fettuccine and shrimp and it was very good. Others at the table had similar opinions of their food

    New Years Eve 20'

    This is a nice place in RP in a very convenient location right next to Wrecked At The Reef bar. We have been here a few times for dinner and special occasions like New Years Eve.

    Grouper!
    Jessica M.

    Wow! From start to finish it's all excellent! If you are looking for an upscale option in PP this is it, but prices are so reasonable! Staff and service is excellent. Beautiful ambiance. Our meals and cocktails were so good! We had the blackened grouper, salmon, shrimp fettuccine Alfredo and shrimp parmigiana.. we can't wait to go back!

    We chose El Meson after reading so many great reviews, but unfortunately our experience was very…read moredisappointing. We were 2 adults and 1 child. The restaurant had no AC, and it was extremely hot and humid inside. The fans didn't help, and we were all sweating the entire time. The homemade chips were greasy, very hard, and they only brought a tiny bowl of it. We ordered a meat platter, but the steak was overcooked. No one came to check on our table during the meal. In the end, we paid $157 for one meat platter for 2, french fries for the child, with no drinks since they don't serve alcohol. They don't accept credit cards and when paying cash they exchange rate 15 pesos for 1 US dollar which is lower than everywhere else. I am recommending you exchange the money before you go. Overall, the food, service, and atmosphere did not match the excellent reviews we had read. We left disappointed and couldn't wait to leave because we were so uncomfortable.

    Talk about hidden gem! Giant platters of deliciousness. Reservations are a must unless you want…read moreto wait an hour in our car (like we did). Service is impeccable. It's like you're eating in someone's kitchen/patio. We ordered 4 meats (skirt steak, filet, scampi, fried shrimp) for 3 people--which was WAY too much food. Macaroni salad is next level. We all had Mexican cokes bc they don't serve alcohol. It is BYOB tho. Just eat here and be prepared to have massive leftovers.
