Do you have a favorite Restaurant serving Lobster?
Do you have a favorite restaurant in Baja serving lobster for less than the price of a good bottle of tequila?
What was the price of the lobster dinner (without the beverages)?
The last two places I have tried were over $28 per plate for a 1 1/4# bug.
The Palm in Cantemar
Paraiso in San Quentin
Please provide this very important information as a public service.

Although I havent been there in years, we always stayed at the Viejo Muelle in San Quintin(I think that is the name, it definitely is not the old
mill) for their lobster which they cooked to perfection. So many places overcook it. I remember it being reasonable but nothing any more specific
than that.
I have also had it at Equipales and it was good too but not as good.
Used to have it at Enriques (San Lucas)for $9.95 but he bit the dust. For that price it didnt have to be perfect.
I would consider trying Las Palmas a block north of the end of 5 de Febrero in La Paz as all their seafood is excellent.
More drool on the keyboard.
Pompano, did you ever figure out what to do about that

Langosta en Baja
My vote is for Miguel's in Todos Santos for Chiles Rellenos con Langosta, followed closely by Mariscos Mazatlan in Cabo (..Yeah, Cabo!) for ANY of
their Lobster dishes.
Bugs: Mmmmmmmmm...

Cameron,
That sure looks like a Maine Lobster. Is that what they are serving in Cabo. I could understand those costing $30!

I like the Sleepless Lobster in CSL. It has a fun ambiance and good prices. I generally don't take the quality of non-Maine lobsters too seriously. I
mainly care if it has been too long since they've been yanked out of the ocean and that the cooks don't dry them out too much.

Bahia Mariscos in Ensenada
On Ave. Riveroli (if I remember correctly), two blocks up from the malecon, the Las Tortugas Restaurant (also a great all food is excellent place) is
kitty-korner.
Bahia Mariscos is a two-story white painted building with large blue letters proclaiming the name and the streetside tables are sheltered by huge blue
awning-to-sidewalk plastic sheeting.
The "bugs" (Pacific, so no claws) are live on view to the dining room. You pick the size/price and they cook to order.
I don't remember the pricing specifically, but I do think that they must be reasonable because the place is always (except on race weekends) mostly
full of locals.
This is a great place that has been doing landoffice business for a very long time.
P.S. They have very secure, guarded, off-street parking in the back through the one-way entrance from the street.

My vote is for Mulege is Francisco Marron's Equipales :but Mama Esponsa’s in El Rosario make a lobster Ranchero that is great they serve it like a
soup with big chucks of lobster. I like it so much I even tried to order it for breakfast
But I haven't been in Either one in 2 Years

Killer lobster tacos
Move over Mama Espinoza!
We are in Loreto for the turtle conference and on the way up we stopped at San Augustin Restaurant(as we always do) for breakfast. I had never tried
their lobster tacos as it seems we are always leaving from La Paz in the morning and breakfast seems like a better choice. But today we were later and
I went for it. The absolute best I have ever had. They make their own tortillas for one thing but the lobster was tender and tasty and had just the
right amount of chiles.
So this is between La Paz and Constitucion Just before the turn off for Punta Conejo(big white tire) headed north it is on the left hand side. The
building is pink and gray with a bright yellow second floor(it sure was cute when it was just pink and gray!) Emilio is the guy behind the counter and
everything there is tasty.

I didn't know lobsters went to restaurants! Do they prefer the smoking or non-smoking section?
