Interesting that no one mentioned El Rey Sol, in the heart of town. Classy room, piano music. French menu. Big wine selection.

These folks are in an RV caravan and parking has to be a consideration. I do, however, agree with your recommendation.

Got it. Then, for that matter, Las Cazuelas has a fairly big lot behind the building. Nice family Mexican atmosphere. And they have various size rooms
that can put your party together, yet alone.
And btw, Dennis, Vips is a Walmart company. They are co-located all over Mexico. Their food is good, more like Sanborn's than gourmet. There is
something oxymarooonic between the title of this thread and eating at Walmart, however.

I would recommend this group leave the RVs at Estero and take taxis into town. No problem with parking, drinking, driving. Then, they can go
ANYWHERE!

Yes, it would, but it doesn't fill the request of a "classy" place!

Hey, thanks you guys for the replies. Really helps.
Yes, Doug, I fondly remember la Cueva for a very romantic dinner in 1970! It was "way outa town" back then.

La Finca located on the primera in the vicinity of the San Nicholas Hotel has been good to me. Perhaps not classy enough though?

Yeah, sorry I wasn't too sure about what the road was called. I used to make the walk from San Nicholas Hotel.

That really doesn't bode well for their future. A steakhouse that is not open for dinner??? Also interesting as far as posthole is concerned. When
staying at San Nicolas, you are only two blocks from Bronco's Steakhouse. Just in the opposite direction.

If you'd like seafood I'd suggest Bahia Ensenada. It's just off of 1st street in the down town tourist section. They serve a Great Garlic shrimp, my
favorite dish there. They just remolded the upstairs room and they have some huge fish tanks there and it's very nice. We got a little tour of it
before it was done and we're kind of like family with them due to the fact that they adopted a very large gold fish that we had.
If ya want a nice place and some great seafood I'd go there.
Oh yea, they also have a large lot in the back for parking.

Just tried and loved Pampas restaurant on the southern end of the Malecon in Ensenada. A salad bar that will knock your socks off and then skewered
meats are brought to your table until you ask them to stop. Its all you can eat and the food was delicious. Not too expensive dinner for 2 including
tip was $34usd, no drinks.

I have to agree guys--this has been one of my favorite restaurants for a number of years. I always order the shrimp, octopus and calamari combo in
garlic sauce.
