My daughter is going to Ensenada on the cruise ship with a group of friends. They would like a restaurant where they could all eat together, all 20 of
them! ( I know, I know). I told her possibly El Rey, but it's kind of high end. She would probably need reservations.... any ideas?

Corralito on lopez mateo just south of miramar is always fun. or how bout el charro?

With that many people and within walking distance from the ship I recommend "El Charro" as well. Great Mexican food and something for everyone. I take
the family there at least once a week.

Pampas is close by and pretty big too and delicioso...dont eat the day before though and go easy on the salad bar before.

IMHO...MUELLE TRES, right at the beginning of the Malecon, and next to the fish market is David's restaurant. It only seats about 20 patrons, but it
is the freshest seafood dinner you'll ever have.
David normally participates in all the seafood/wine events in the Ensenada area.
Try their clam chowder, house ceviche, the pin pon, and their octopus with huitlacoche. Their oysters are totally outstanding (their sous chefs always
smell each oyster as it is opened, and if it does not smell right...out it goes.).

Udo, MUELLE TRES is one of my favorites, but hitting them with 20 people at once may be a bit overwhelming.....

Just get there about 10 minutes before opening (1 p.m.), and drop a couple of names such as the Heafeys, Taormina, and Udo. You'll be treated like
royalty.
BTW, David does have his chit together, and 20 at once won't be any problem!

We frequently have large groups and we eat at Mahi Mahi. Never been disappointed. A little far from the cruise ship but close Hussongs and Papas and
Beer. Get a couple of taxi vans probably about $10 each way.
