In and Out (Buckaroo's): Same
El Nido: wife didn't go for steak --- I lost out (Just had a great Bistek Tampiqueno in El Paso, though)
The Shrimp c-cktail and Campechana at La Morena-EXCELLENT. Had a good time but way too short.
Spent more time in La Mision, had to try out Splash, La Fonda 1 and two, etc.
Even managed to visit los traileros in Ensenada. Again, time way too short. |
Would you consider writing some more details on the restaurants you visited? Nomad actually has a forum just for restaurant reviews: http://forums.bajanomad.com/forumdisplay.php?fid=48

Depending on when you go to San Felipe....
Right now Pete's Camp is closed for food, but the outdoor bar is open. Buckaroo Burgers is also closed....it is ok in my opinion.....not the best
burgers and high priced for the area for what you get.
I like Playa Azul which is north of town. It has really good breakfast and Mexican food. Roadrunner (also north of town) has good breakfast also,
but a bit higher in price.
In town, I like La Morena, Taco Factory, for good tacos at a reasonable price. Don't try the pizza at big boy's...the crust tastes like it is made
with Bisquick or something else unpleasant. They do have a good Shrimp c-cktail and cold beer, but higher prices. Right now Al's has a very limited
menu...it is old, funky and smells like old cigarettes. My personal favorite for a nicer meal is El Padrino Italian Restaurant. It costs a bit more
than the other restaurants, but the food is quality and excellent. La Cabana has good food as does New Georges. There are some new places in town that
I haven't had the chance to try. If you find someplace good let us know!
Whenever I hear that rainy, chill wind blow. I think it may be time to head for Mexico. Tengo que obedecer mi corazon!

Maybe I'm hallucinating, but didn't they used to have Italian on their menu?

We had dinner at Las Palmas laat nite & not only was the service very very poor but the filet mignon I had was the worst I have ever had in San
Felipe. No excuse for this as even the markets here have really good filets. There were 9 of us & we were the ONLY ones eating in the place. 4-5
customers at the bar. Oh yes , we also had to eat in the bar as the resturant was not being used. The cigarette smoke was bad & we told them this
when we entered. They assured us there would be no smoking while we were there (the place already smelled bad) but they did not stop the people at the
bar from lighting up when they chose to. We were sitting right next to the bar & those customers. Needless to say we won't be returning there for
dinner again. This was the second chance we have given them & still no good results.

We only ate there a few times (2006-2009) on our way home from Shell Island or Gonzaga, but it was quickly Baja Angel's favorite. Steak and shrimp are
the dinners we ordered, so don't know about Italian. The waiter had a big mustache... It used to be on the main N/S street just north from the El
Cortez, west side of street.

North of SF on eastside of Hwy5 around KM183ish is Un Otra Rancho Market, in back is a restaurant that is great for Mexican with some American dishes
added to the menu for good measure.
La Vaquita on the north end of the Malecon is very good.
Baja Mar on the Malecon is good. Got my credit card ripped there though a couple of years ago.
I only deal in Pesos now wherever I go in Baja now. Credit cards, no mas.
Why do Liberals insist and demand that achievers pay the way for nonachievers who are to lazy to succeed, or are just failures by their own choice?
Criminals prefer unarmed victims, dictators prefer unarmed subjects.
Why do ignorant people continue their blabbering when it only proves to others how stupid they are.

Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

I have not seen any comments on the China Inn yet, are they still there? I had a wonderful meal there on my last visit, the shrimp were large and
delicious, the service was great, lots of parking, etc. Also, I had a breakfast burrito at the little store next to El Dorado that was superior
anything I have ever eaten in the states. JH
