Es El Unico Restaurante En Puerto Peñasco Adentro Del Mar
Reviewed By JimmyGos
This is a must stop place for drinks and appetizers when in Puerto Penasco. They have the best drinks in Puerto Penasco and the prices are very fair. Their coconut shrimp is awesome. Try the shrimp basket its a large portion, very good and reasonably priced. The staff is very accommodating and they speak enough english to insure that your orders are correct. This is a great place to watch the sunset while having a cocktail!

We spent the weekend in Rocky Point and ate at Wrecked on Saturday night. We sat outside and there was a live band (which was fantastic). I loved that everywhere in the restaurant is no smoking - even outside. Menu was fairly basic, but delicious. I order grilled garlic shrimp with rice and veggies. My husband had a carne asada chimichanga and my two kids split the chicken tender basket. All was delicious! The margaritas were also excellent. They accept credit card, but there was an additional charge. Great restaurant to enjoy a low-key relaxing meal. The wait staff was friendly and all spoke good english. They had lots of security throughout, making you feel very safe.

We were staying at the del sol but decided to breakfast here instead. We werenât disappointed! We ordered the breakfast burrito, smoothies and their Bloody Mary! Wow! Everything we ordered was just delicious! And their bloody Mary...impressed! The staff are lovely, friendly and efficient. We enjoyed it so much, we went for breakfast there for the 3 days! Highly recommend the trash can burrito to share as itâs huge! Pancakes, smoothies and their bloody Mary! Actually all their burritos are amazing!

Delicious food, beautiful decoration and hand painted details by native Mexicans enforce its slogan "A Museum of Flavor and Architectureâ Now accepting credit cards! Itâs location overlooking the port where the shrimp boats are is part of the experience.

We had a great meal and the margaritas were good as well. They told us up front it was cash only so we were prepared for that. However what they didnât tell us about was their âDolphin dollarsâ. What this meant was at the end of the dinner the bill came out in pesos not AmericN dollars (we had confirmed they took American dollars at the time they told us it was cash only). I got out my conversion calculator are determined the cost for our dinners and drinks was $83 The waiter said no it was $97 (both without tip). When we questioned that amount given the current exchange rate he said they didnât care about actual exchange rate they only cared about what he called âDolphin dollar rate). We pId the bill as asked and left knowing that no matter how we had felt about the food we would not return and would be letting others know of this unfair practice. Let me say also we had paid for other meals at other restaurants over the past 2 days with no discrepancy on the exchange rates. Now we know why itâs cash only.Hello Sally V,We appreciate your review. I would like to inform you that after many years of operating without a point of sale machine, the Friendly Dolphin has finally acquired one. Yes, we are finally accepting credit or debit cards! There shall never be another dispute over the rate of exchange as it will be the bank the entity establishing the rates of exchange.We apologize for the inconvenience we put you through.Regards

WOW - this place loads of charm and character.Located right on Rodeo Drive, it's the perfect place for a meal after an afternoon of shopping.The menu is extensive and everything we've tried has been delicious.It's close to Sandy Beach, too, which can be a plus.

This small place on the main drag completely escaped our notice. It used to be Pane e Vino, which is now located up on the hill overlooking the harbor. My landlady highly recommended El Buzo for seafood, so we walked into the small (but there is also a second floor) white tabled room and sat down. El Buzo means "the diver" and there are diving helmets as decorations. Very cute. The server - maybe the owner - spoke English and made us feel very welcome. (Other servers did not speak English but were very friendly) The menu could best be called "fusion" as it included combinations we'd never seen or heard of. There is a book with photos of each dish, which was VERY helpful! We started with the taquitos appetizer, then I got the garlic shrimp, which was delicious, one of my friends had seared tuna (which was clearly sushi grade tuna), and my other friend's tuna tostada made me wish I'd gotten that instead! The pieces of tostada had been broken up and added to the marinated tuna so that it looked like a little tower full of amazing goodness. It was SOOO good. We were so glad El Buzo had been recommended to us. We knew the dessert would be spectacular too, so we ordered the whiskey flan, plantains with ice cream, and cheesecake, and we were right, it was all delicious. The price was right too. Two margaritas, two beers, one appetizer, 3 entrees and 3 desserts were under $70. And we would have gladly paid more!Hello, Podie, thank you for your comments.In the diver always seek to offer quality at the best prices on all our products, we are very happy with who you recommend we have chosen.We wait for you very soon.Thanks, again.

Busy hopping place, very popular with locals and tourists alike. The chicken is mouth wateringly delicious- char grilled chicken hot off the grill, moist and juicy With crispy skin, perfect with tortillas!. The best part-$5 for half a chicken, comes with cabbage, pickled onions, lime and some yummy salsa. The tortillas they serve are heavenly. You just canât go wrong here, place can get busy but again so worth it!!
