One of our favorite seafood restaurants! There are two locations and both are awesome, although one is much bigger if you have a large group. Our favorite items are the gobernador de camaron and tostada mixta.

THE BEST GRILLED CHICKEN! This is a local secret and favorite. I can't stress how many times this place hit for us. They offer BBQ or a spicy rub (not too spicy honestly). You can order a mix of both if you can't decide ;)
