Thanks for the directions, Bob.
By split off the left, you mean the "Y" by the non-working clock. There is a sign there that directs you to San Quintin.
That's the road that bypasses the harbor area.

Udo..........It is located at 10th and Miramar.........if you are headed into town, it will be on your right, just past the intersection of Miramar

........took me about 10 minutes to find it the first time.

When you're driving south and you go over the hill just north of Santispac and see the blue waters of bahia conception for the first time.

The stuffed shrimp or calamari at Reys. Carnitas at Barajas. Lanching a tin boat at los Cerritos and landing a dorado or two and getting them on a grill asap.

Yes, and there is nice car wash right next door too. Sometimes I'll have them clean my truck up while I'm feasting there. We usually spend at least two hours, so arrive hungry!

We definitely will be hungry!
No plans for breakfast when we leave the house.
We'll be staying at Taormina's B&B and I'll be guest chef. Friday night we are attending the opening night bash at Venidimia.
Love to spend some time with you, Terry, if you come to the wine festivities.
If not, I'll see you at the chili cook-off a couple of weeks later.

We will be down the afternoon of the 12th, headed back north the morning of the 22nd. Will be attending four wine events and the chili cookoff.

Do you have a baja phone????

Can you give me a hint on where they are?
Those clams and oysters look yummy!


This sign means you found it! A really great taste treat... It was fun!

David, the sign has changed and it's larger. The spelling on the new sign is a little different, probably new ownership. However, the clams were the best I'vd had there in a long time. Absolutely outstanding. This was taken mid July 2010

Outside sign


Inside sign

And very sweet garlic juices all around it! All of the fixings are put back into the pismo clam shell and they are cooked on a barbeque. Man, now my mouth is watering.

Relax, appears your photo is just a tad dated as of mid July 2010 so a fairly recent change...

IMHO you had a better photo, David. Plus the storefront looked more upscale, compared to Bob's photos.
If Bob wouldn't have posted his photos, I would have gone looking for the sign you posted.
Either way...I'm there next Friday!

I'll take some more photos and post those along with another restaurant (and bar) review.

My Baja cravings include
fresh mango plucked from the tree each morning
the feel of a whale pushing up beneath my hand
the music and special foods in La Paz during Carnival
and most of all I crave the colors and smells of the Sea of Cortez
