Going South... Is this place located after you make the left turn after passing the Pemex station, or before? Which side of the street?

going south from immigration
Pemex is on the right, restaurant is further down on the left, it is a free standing building with plenty of parking and ocean view.

The Mirrador. It sure seen a lot of names in the last few years. You couldn't wish for a better Santa Rosalia harbor view. Hope it does well.

Must be the building on the end of the malecon ??
Ate there several times. Always different owners and almost always empty. Hope they make a go of it. Love decent Chinese food.

Probably not. It's my understanding from some who have been there that, other than pricey first class joints in Beijing, the food is generaly worse
than terrible.
California has spoiled everybody.

the prices were quite reasonable. 95 pesos for a huge plate of food.
I have been to Beijing and I hated the food. From the cheapest to the most expensive, sorry, I hated all of the restaurants.
Dennis - We saw the chef, he is most definitely Chinese and the food was defintely authentic. go and see and then post your reports .... I hope you
will be as pleased with your palate as I was !! Only "complaint" which is not even a complaint but a comment: the food came out a dish at a time, so
we ended up sharing the two dishes ....
Les did mention that he has seen a lot of places in and out of the location. I hope this guy makes it. He came recommended and we were NOT
disappointed and will go back, for sure.

Spent several vacation as a teen in Italy ( long time ago  ) and never
did see pizza on the menu anywhere.
Maybe an American invention like chop sue.

last summer when we went to Italy, we ate pizza several times, in several different cities. it is definitely very different from the American version:
quite thin crust and some of the veggies were baked into the crust .... cheeses like I have never tasted and in general yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmy.
bit if you like chinese, try out the meal at Beijing's and give us your scoop. maybe we had a lucky day but our food was scrumtious. we were the only
customers for early lunch
