Well from my perspective I would call that the east end of the Malecon. Oh no, could that possibly be. But then I live on the west end of the bay where the sun sets.:O:O

Sorry to hear the bad reports on the Bismark. We have never ordered lobster there - only grilled fish and it has always been very good.

While I don't really consider it a seafood restaurant, the C
cabrilla at Tres Virgennes is one of my favorite dishes there.

Compestre (sp?)has some seafood too. A friend loves their parrot fish special. Never thought of parrot fish as eatable.

Russ,
Lots of time the favorite taco place here in Loreto, El Rey, serves parrot fish. Likely because of lack of anything else, but it's delicious.
And Don,
the open air restaurant just north of the El Moro, has excellent seafood at very reasonable prices. Not a place to take a romantic date, but clean and good service.
And sometimes live music and always great Mexican tunes on the sound system.

Grill Campestre does a better job on meat....IMO....than they do on seafood. I had rubbery overcooked shrimp twice, so now stick to their BBQ'd spareribs, which are always awesome!:bounce:

Parrot fish is used frequently to make Poisson Cru in French Polynesia. Delicious!

Moyeyo's is the seafood restaurant just north-south-east-west of the El Moro.

Thanks Steve,
Yes, that's the place.
Better explain that poisson doesn't mean poison.
We leave that to the puffers.:P

Well since this thread has already been hijacked, Parrot fish is delicious. I had it in Tahiti with a vanilla sauce and thought I'd died and gone to heaven until another restaurant had dorado (mahimahi) with a shrimp sauce. :lol:

The new Mariscos "Los Laureles" on the malecon has pretty good food. I have tried the clams at "Moyeyos" and where very good. The new "Tacos La Paz" on Marquez de Leon has perhaps the best and most consistent fish tacos in town. Theres a small restaurant on 5 de Feb called "Mar de Cortez", the place is awfully decorated, but the seafood is excelent. Bismarkcito on the malecon is what i call one of those strange La Paz "anomalies", the place is always full, yet every single time me or any of my friends have been there, have been declared a disaster. I went to Mar y peña once and the seafood chiles rellenos where outstanding.

There is a huge palapa being build on the malcon behind the Avis rent a car place, and the place seems to be a seafood restaurant.

Parrot fish are caught exclusively through unsustainable fishing practices, such as gill netting and gillnet/hookah combinations. They are also taken locally in the "Marine Park" here by "pistoleros," illegal night time spear fishers.

I hear it's good, but I hear sea turtle is good too.

I ordered the seafood relleno last time I was at La Mar Y Pena. The one I had was fish fillets (not a chili) stuffed with various seafoods. It was delicious but too much for me to finish. Did not re-heat well the next day.
