Nayarit, Mexico Food Guide: 4 Fusion food Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in Punta de Mita
Find out what Fusion restaurants to try in Punta de Mita. Yearning for the laidback feel of a rural fishing village with white sand beaches, combined with the luxuries and mild year-round weather of the Mexican Riviera? Punta Mita has all this plus championship golf, diving, sport fishing, surfing, sailing, sea kayaking, whale watching, mountain biking, hiking, horseback riding, Jeep tours, and rainforest excursions. Walk into town for beachfront restaurant dining and Pacific Ocean sunsets. Kids can safely swim at Playa El Anclote, where the rock jetties calm the shallow waters near restaurant row. Surf El Anclote’s long slow waves. Or seek out those special surfing spots along the coast, like near Punta Sayulita. Enjoy kayaking. Take the family sailing. Tee off overlooking the breezy blue waters of the Pacific Ocean at the Jack Nicklaus-designed Pacifico Course, rated among the best in Latin America. Pacifico is renowned for its optional 19th hole, the “Tail of the Whale,” a 199-yard par-three where you tee off over the Pacific Ocean onto a large island green. The Bahia, another Nicklaus-designed championship course, has six ocean holes, and is lined by beach sands and gated resort properties controlling course access. The Bahia Banderas (Bay of Banderas) and north towards Sayulita is great for fishing and diving volcanic tunnels, or just watching whales, dolphins, turtles, and ocean birds. Snorkel color-splashed shallow reefs. Spend a day on a ponga, a motorized open-bow fishing boat in search of mahi-mahi (dorado), pugnacious pargo (big cubera snapper), Pacific sailfish, fighting roosterfish, yellowfin tuna, and bonita. From Islas Marietas and El Morro to La Corbetena and El Banco, the diving opportunities are numerous.

Iâve visited Cocoâs a few times before as itâs a great place to watch live sports. So this time I was visiting to play some pool, they have 2 pool tables now which is great I think they are the only ones in town. If you want a break from pool they also have table football. As I have experienced here before we were quickly served by the helpful and friendly staff. However our usual order of wings would be somewhat different this time. Nallely the owner told us of her new chef Gabriel and the new menu. We decided to order a few different things. We got the tuna cappachio, shrimp tempura and the mini burgers/ slider. We had the lamb, crab and beef. (See attached photos).We werenât disappointed. Tuna was excellent it had a fresh herb crust and been seared, that plate didnât last long. Next we had the tempura the soy based sauce with this was great I could have just drink a cup full of it. Then we ordered the sliders, as a lamb lover this was my favorite but the crab was a close second. I will be going to Sayulita next week and I will definitely be going back for more. Iâm looking forward to seeing what Gabriel comes up with next time Iâm hoping for a few specials.

Sitting at a table overlooking a quiet area of Banderas Bay, from which you will see the beautiful Rancho Banderas beach and you might see frolicking humpback whales and dolphins and from December through May will be almost guaranteed a breathtaking sunset, the food almost doesn't matter... but in fact, the food (Mexican and other choices) generally does the setting justice. Dear guest,Thank you for sharing your experience at Peppers with us. We strive to offer a consistent delicious culinary experience at every meal and your feedback is our motivation to continue improving.We would love to welcome you back.Warm regards,
