Top 10 International food in Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca, Mexico
Find out what International restaurants to try in Puerto Escondido. Looking for a tropical Mexican fishing village with relaxing beaches, oceanfront seafood bars and restaurants, unspoiled reefs for diving and snorkeling, and waves suitable for championship surfing? Puerto Escondido has all that plus the Laguna de Manialtepec mangrove lagoon for tours combining kayaking, boating, bird-watching, and swimming in phosphorescent waters. Regularly scheduled airline service links Mexico City and Oaxaca to Puerto Escondido Airport (PXM)Rent an umbrella at the town beach, Playa Principal, which parallels the Avenida Perez Gasga hotel and restaurant row. Stop in one of the hotels near the beach for a drink or take the family horseback riding. A small freshwater lagoon at the mouth of the river, Rio Rigadillo, marks the border with Playa Marinero, which has waves suitable for beginning surfers. The whole family will enjoy the mile-long shoreline walkway known as Andador Escénico, which leads across the rocks to El Faro lighthouse and the Sueño Posible scenic overlook. Beyond the lighthouse, Playa Principal transitions into Playa Manzanillo, a swimmable beach with clear waters extending towards Puerto Angelito. Rent a boogie board or equipment to snorkel the coral and rocks. If Playa Manzanillo gets too crowded on a holiday weekend, catch one of the water taxis linking Puerto Escondido’s seven beaches. Hire a skiff to take the family sightseeing or dolphin and sea turtle viewing. Fish for trophy sailfish or catch a dinner of yellowfin tuna, mahi mahi (dorado), grouper, roosterfish, mackerel, or snapper. Watch the experts surf the 6-15 foot swells and hollow tubes of Playa Zicatela. International competitions in August and November draw the pros to demonstrate their prowess on the Mexican Pipeline. Snorkel or surf the clear shallow waters beneath the high cliffs surrounding Playa Carrizalillo. High red cliffs, housing, and hotels surround riptide-plagued Playa Bacocho, which is good for long romantic beach walks and sunsets. For more adventure, dive Pressure Point’s tectonic plate fault lines or Punta Colarada’s volcanic overhangs, ledges, and lava rock swimthroughs. If you are lucky you will see lobsters, stingrays, moray and snowflake eels, barracudas, yellow tangs, parrotfish, and puffers.

Having eaten at this vegetarian restaurant several times, this time we decided to try breakfast. A group of 8, quickly attended to and given the option of buffet or a lacarte breakfasts. The buffet was well stacked, and the warm items such as eggdishes, tamales and mole served warm!Dome of us opted for items off the menu, and the tamales in particular were great, served with a filling of squashflowers and cheese!Coffee excellent, hot and strong and food brought out to all at the same time!Pricing fair and service, as always, excellent.

All I can say is wow! First, I loved that you could be on beach chairs on the beach, in the couch area or at a regular table.Salvatore greeted us joyfully as we chose our table. Throughout our visit to the restaurant both Salvador and our waiter visited with us. Our 11 year old was allowed to run around on the beach as it family oriented.The food was absolutely delicious and very reasonably priced. Salvador told us that the restaurant is family friendly until midnight when it turns into a bar.We will return!Hi BonnieAll I can say is wow ! what a nice review :)P.S. We´ll pass your review to Salvador, you´ll make his day !thanks !

Ordered a gyro and some shrimp tacos. Gyro was okay, although it tasted like a pastor taco, and the tzatziki was disappointing. The shrimp tacos were bland and the limeade and orangeade tasted like whats left after the ice has melted.I was expecting much more unfortunately.

This place seemed tired and over-rated to us. Although the snapper was decent, all the accompanying sides were poor. The menu mentioned an elaborate potatoe dish, but the indifferent, bored waiter said all they had available were fries. The fries were inedible, cooked in poor quality oil. The salad was bland.Micheladas were good.

We held our annual âBirthday party for everyoneâ event in the loft at Fresh. The view of Playa Zicatela was stunning, as was the sunset. Sipping a delicious margarita watching the sun melt into the horizon was surreal. The food at Fresh is delicious. Try the ceviche for sure. We enjoyed the catch of the day, jambalaya and delicious shrimp dishes. This is one of our favorite spots in Puerto.

We had a nice meal in the restaurant. The food was ok but not much choice for the kids. The lemonade with mint was delicious. The view was amazing and it was nice to get the cool breeze which blows through the restaurant. Would recommend for the view.
