I ate and drank there on New Years Eve, on my way to Mulege. It was absolutely great! Noel gave me the tour too. Diane, did you see the chapel right
next to the hot tub room? Beautiful! There won't be very many rooms though.
A side note: Noel is a great friend of Omar, the waiter at Scotty's in Mulege. Omar is from Guererro Negro and used to be a waiter at Malerrimo's. On
my return trip to the States I didn't stop there because I blew right by in mid-day.

When we looked at where the rooms are, they were in the middle of a lot of construction, so we just looked from the patio---did not see the chapel,
but will look for it.
Did you notice if there will be an outside entrance to the rooms? Also, I wonder about our always pressing issue---fur friends.
Looking forward to returning.

A recent report?
We tried this restaurant last year and had a very good meal. We were the only ones there, so I feared it might not make it.

Thanks for the "heads up" on this restaurant. Guess we will have to stop there on the trip either south or north, depending upon the time of day we
arrive.

Seems to me that Shari had posted some time back that this restaurant had closed. But then, it reopened. Maybe I'm wrong on this, but somehow, I seem
to recall that Shari had a group of whale watchers a few years ago, and food poisoning erupted from this restaurant.
I have only viewed it driving by, and it does look like a very nice physical plant.

If it was two years ago, we dined since then and it was good. I don't recall the food poisoning scare. Not the thing to speculate about, very bad
mojo for business.

We had breakfast there 3-4 months ago and it was still good.

Santo Remedio is open. Since the original owner was murdered a couple years back, many locals no longer go there.
(we miss you dearly Keno.)

Very sorry to hear this. He built a very nice restaurant.

At the end of the day, it's really all about volume and turnover. We've eaten in places where we were the only diners, and felt the same concerns.
Since the Baja tourism industry took a dump, the reality confronting all who continue to travel is that some of their favorite restaurants might be
struggling and might push the envelope for freshness.
But, one careless employee could be the culprit. I choose not to ID the restaurant, but it has been a fave of ours for years. Our group fell prey to
tourista after a meal there. We still return.

I am glad to hear of all the positive reviews. A few years back I tried this
place and was largely dissapointed. It had great curb appeal and off street
parking. All indications looked good, but the food and service were sorely lacking. I would like to try it again. Perhaps this time they will have
enough seafood to make a 7 mares soup. It definitely has an upscale look to it,and
even a large adjacent area for private gatherings.
