    This is the best spot for lobster with a view and affordable! This is my go to spot when I go to Puerto Nuevo it has the cutest atmosphere and view of the ocean. The service is great and fast! All of the drinks are delicious. I have been here several times and plan to have more visits!

    If ultra-fresh seafood is what you're after, Mariscos Puerto Nuevo absolutely delivers. The seafood here couldn't be any fresher--even if I had caught it myself. Every bite tasted clean, sweet, and perfectly prepared. The service was just as impressive. Our server, Jaime, was incredibly friendly, professional, and helpful, guiding us through the menu and making sure everything was spot on. A pro tip: sit upstairs if you can--the sweeping Pacific Ocean views make the experience even more memorable. We ordered the large lobster platter and the garlic octopus and shrimp platter, and both were outstanding. Portions are generous, making this a great place to come hungry. On top of that, they bring out complimentary ceviche, picante, and salsa fresca, which were fresh, vibrant, and the perfect way to kick things off. Between the quality of the seafood, the warm service, and the unbeatable ocean views, this spot is a must when you're in the area. I'll absolutely be back the next time I'm anywhere near Puerto Nuevo.

    El lugar es bueno, bonito y barato. Los meseros son muy amables y simpáticos, siempre atentos y con una sonrisa. La comida está deliciosa, con tortillas recién hechas y porciones generosas. Todo tiene un sabor casero y auténtico. El ambiente es tranquilo y familiar, ideal para disfrutar con amigos o en pareja. Llevé mi familia y les encantó. La vista es muy hermosa, especialmente al atardecer, y hace que la experiencia sea aún mejor. Lo único que podría mejorar es tener una salsa un poco más picante, pero en general todo estuvo excelente. Definitivamente volveré. The place is good, nice, and affordable. The waiters are very kind and friendly, always attentive and smiling. The food is delicious, with freshly made tortillas and generous portions. Everything tastes homemade and authentic. There was four of us in our group. Three of us ordered the lobster, shrimp, fish combo. The other ordered the steak and shrimp combo. The lobster was delightful. The shrimp was perfect. The fish and steak weren't the greatest but still better than what you'd expect. The atmosphere is calm and family-friendly, perfect for enjoying with friends or as a couple. I brought my family, and they loved it. The view is very beautiful, especially at sunset, which makes the experience even better. The only thing that could be improved is having a slightly spicier salsa, but overall, everything was excellent. I'll definitely be back.

    I'm late at submitting this but I cannot wait to go back to Baja, particularly to Puerto Nuevo and have some amazing lobster again. The outdoor / upstairs patio is a beautiful vista of the Pacific Ocean and Pueblo of Puerto Nuevo. Everyone is so friendly and treated us like family. I think even if mom was not a regular they would have served us with the same amazing customer service. Really everyone was super nice from the guy who watches the parking to the severs. Well done! My mom is a regular there and now I hope to be each time we go visit mom's beach house. We had ceviche, drinks and of course the lobster dinner which is a great deal for all you get! The ceviche was perfect and fresh. The margaritas are delicious and you have to order the lobster dinner which comes with rice and beans and a salad. We even got some conzume de pescado and it was a nice dip for the tortillas Hope to see you guys again soon! Thank you!

    Lobster and crabs

    This place is the best seafood I have ever had! The crabs and lobster were amazing. The service is amazing and they had a live mariachi band playing

    Beer upstairs

    If possible, ask to sit upstairs to enjoy the view. We ordered our lobsters steamed (not fried) and brought our own butter (they will melt it for you). Our dinner came with rice, beans and homemade tortillas (so delicious!). The servers were very nice and our food came out quickly.

    "Large" lobster which was a medium and a small!
    Lisa L.

    Such an amazing lunch we're coming back Lobsters were tasty Baja style with lots of flavor warm tortillas and plenty of sides and a nice salad and a side of garlic shrimp with 2 drinks all for $70 usd great views with a band across the way performing great music. Come here for a great Puerto Nuevo experience. Don't let the crazy guys parking deter you if you're lucky there's a guy who will give you the spot in front tip him out!

    4 Medium lobster special. Javier thru in extra half
    Eddie C.

    We had many places to pick from but we've eaten at this sister's restaurant, Las Brisas, which was good so this place had a 2nd floor and view and thus chose it. No blanket needed as the 2nd floor is glass enclosed and the sun was shining in. Did I mention they have valet parking for their customers right in front of the restaurant? Javier was the man who took care of business and gave us very attentive service as our waiter. Very clean restaurant. We ordered 4 medium lobster specials and Javier gave us an extra half. I ordered a whole lobster with about 6 nice shrimp and salad. Each lobster special ($21) came with a margarita which was very good. We had several songs by a mariach trio to make our meal more enjoyable. We actually had 2 halves to take home and Javier threw in more tortillas, beans and rice. Very good choice for lunch today.

    It was super nice that they had parking for me right in front. I was alone, so I didn't walk to park far and walk all over the place. I literally chose this place because of the parking availability. I sat upstairs with a view of the ocean...so nice! The service was quick (maybe too quick!), and I think I would have stayed longer but I felt a bit rushed. Like as soon as as I was done, the check came and she kept cleaning around me. I guess that could be good, but it made me feel like I had to go and I would have enjoyed sitting with the view for a little while longer. I had the small lobster special. $25 and it was fabulous. Two big halves, rice, beans, freshly made tortillas, chips and salsa, and before the meal they brought a nice flavorful ceviche. It was a great lunch! I had a strawberry margarita...meh. Not my favorite tasting, but it was pretty. I would go back, but I think I would ask to stay longer.

    We are frequent visitors of Mariscos Puerto Nuevo for over 20 years. We love this place. Primo Carlos the parking attendant is the best. It was fate meeting him many years ago. We have had a great friendship with him. The resturaunt itself never disappoints. We have tried many dishes here and each one made with love and absolutely delectable. We have made many memories here and Celebrated many Anniversaries, Birthdays, Holidays and getaways here. The place is so nice. They have two levels and a balcony on the second floor. We started coming here when it was one level and then they remodeled and made another story with a balcony and the wall to wall doors that open are the best on second floor. The Family owned restaurant serves great tasty dishes satisfying with every bite. So many flavors and everything is pure fire. They are our first choice always at Puerto Nuevo! Friendly staff, attentive servers and time to time musicians come to play for a fee. The food is served in large portions and the home made tortillas hit the spot. The complimentary fish ceviche is so yummy. Always on point. The lobster is cooked to perfection Puerto Nuevo Style. They have 3 sizes to choose from. With bottomless rice, beans and tortillas. A must try and closes at 9pm everyday. Located on the second to last street on the left almost to the end on the right. Ask for Carlos and he will get you a the best parking spot. See the many pics from our trips. Highly recommend! You will be blown away with good food and service. Pure delight with every bite.

    The food: When we come to visit our family who live close to Puerto Nuevo we have to come and have some delicious lobster, rice, beans and freshly made flour tortillas, YES!! The tortillas are freshly made to order!!! By the way the drinks were amazing!! I had the Cantarito and my mom in law had the Mango Margarita! Staff: They're super friendly and very attentive. They're always checking to see if you need anything. The restaurant: It's looks very nice and there's also tables in the back balcony. You get the beautiful view of the pacific ocean! There are also musical bands playing live music to the customers! You can hire them on the spot!! You have good food, good views, live music and family!! What more can you ask for!!

    Menu and excellent fish soup!!!
    Ara M.

    Puerto Nuevo is a popular and one of the most visited city for Seafood lovers. The town can be overwhelming wondering what restaurant to choose. Since the minute we walked in we felt welcomed. The restaurant was very clean and smelt wonderful. This restaurant has a verity of excellent seafood dishes to choose from. There are other options as well for non seafood lovers.!!! Staff is wonderful. While you wait you are given a complementary fish stew one of the best I have had in Mexico. Our dishes were delicious and full of flavor most of all large portions !!!! Excellent!!! Very pleased with the whole experience. Outdoor sitting is also available. Classic Margarita cocktail was tasteful.

    English: The food is as good as always, and their lobster is…read moreamong the best. However, the rice and bean portions have become very small compared to before. For a 2000Mx pesos meal for four people, this feels unfair, especially since rice and beans traditionally come with the dish. The tiny portions forced us to order more and pay extra. This is unfair for clientele that pays top dollar into a Mexican economy... off the flavor alone Don Luis has always been five stars. Other clients have warned us about this , and I don't like to see people being taken advantage of. Español: La comida es tan buena como siempre, y la langosta es de las mejores. Sin embargo, las porciones de arroz y frijoles ahora son muy pequeñas comparadas con antes. Para una cuenta de $2000 ppara cuatro personas, esto resulta injusto, sobre todo porque el arroz y los frijoles tradicionalmente vienen incluidos. Las porciones tan reducidas nos obligaron a pedir más y pagar de nuevo. Aún teniendo el dinero para pagarlo, es injusto. Hablando solamente del sabor don Luis siempre ha sido cinco estrellas. El suceso de las porciones ya se nos había mencionado por otros clientes, y no me gusta ver que se aprovechen los negocios de la gente que les paga.

    The best restaurant in PN! Ask for the owner Pepe or his…read moreson's. Service is excellent and the place is super clean. I recommend ordering the small- medium live lobster. Ask them what size lobster are live and you can't go wrong. If no live available they will tell you what size the freshest is.

We waited 40 minutes for our breakfast and there only 2 other tables there. Every thing was made with live and it was so good. We had a meal at a restaurant the night before air paid about 3 times more than here, this a must try place. The food was served hot and fresh. We will definitely come back here if we stay around here next time. It tasted just like my home cooked meals from home, brought back memories, great food!!!

    Hi. White lady here who will kill for a good menudo…read more I had it on good advice that this was the right thing to order here, and so, of course, I did. And, of course, I ordered it with pata (the pig's foot that turns into a glutenous bone-lollipop that needs to be picked up with your fingers and lovingly slurped until clean). That makes it authentico and magnificent beyond words. The broth is rich in flavor and red in color. The tripe is very tender and well cleaned. A judicious amount of hominy. And here they bring a separate dish containing dried oregano, chopped onions and cilantro, chile flakes, and limes. Rub the oregano between your palms, then add copious amounts of all of the above, let the onion simmer for just a moment, then dig in. Within moments you will find yourself so preoccupied you will forget how to speak. Good stuff and plenty of it. Mr. B wanted shrimp in garlic butter (mojo de ajo). He was envious of my shrimp from the night before at Ruben's, but it paled in comparison. Too bad. The refried beans, now that was another story. So wonderful. It's the lard, baby, lard. The Mexican hot chocolate was yummy. The chips and salsa? Meh. Save room in your stomach for the soft, hot tortillas that come later. You can use US dollars here, and the wifi is free. Just ask for the password. I don't need the excuse of a hangover to come here for menudo.
