Loreto Restaurant questions
Pachamama's--is it still open?
A restaurant a few miles north of Loreto on the beach--I forget the name but I read about it on this form a while back--is it still open?
A restaurant on the beach almost to Juncalito (if I remember correctly) that serves great shellfish--is it still there?
Where else in Loreto besides the basics of McLulu's and Cafe Ole would you recommend? I am not really into pizza, but good food, mainly Mexican
unless somebody's got a good authentic thing going.
Thanks for your suggestions. I will be in Loreto in early October. JK

I would like to know what happened to Picazon(on the beach north of town), too. The owners are friends of mine.
Cant wait to hear the recommendations!

Food was okay but...
... the margaritas at Giggling Dolphin Boat Bar really get your heart rate up!
Pachamama's was open when we drove through in May.
I think the world is run by C- students.

It wasn't great in August.
It\'s easier to get forgiveness then permission.

restaurants
Islas de Loreto on the Malecon. Tio Lupe on Salvatierra. Both handle fresh fish very well. Also, Super Burro for humongous flank steak burritos, a
block So of Salvatierra, turn So at the big Pescador market. The place on the beach So of Nopolo is open.

The one out of town to the north is La Picazone. Just saw the new improvenents and the new kitchen. I think it's great! They will open in two weeks
+-. The others are still open. If the streets are done try the Giggeling Dolphin on Juarez

Finally, a way to use the exercise bike in my bedroom. All this time it's just been a place to drape my bathrobe over!

El Nido as you enter town, but has changed name. Excellent food, and great steaks

El Nido is now Domingo's Place. Not just steaks but try his pork chops or his quail. Domingo's back patio will be open again this fall. This is a
MUST! The patio is great!

The Argentinian restaurant Pachamamma (sorry if I spelled that incorrectly)

Our favorites: Cafe Mita and Islas
Cafe Mita right on the town square.... Owner Juan Carlos, is a very nice man, a good friend and neighbor and he serves wonderful food. We always
love to walk up to Mita's to hear Juan Carlos ~ "David and Shing, welcome back home.... time for some home cooking ! "
We also enjoy Islas. The owners are great folks, their chef knows his stuff, and it is hard to beat that view ! !
We'll be down in Nov. again. 
Mmmmmmmmm now I'm HUNGRY ! ! 
djh
Its all just stuff and some numbers.
A day spent sailing isn\'t deducted from one\'s life.
Peace, Love, and Music

Restaurants
Mitas is my favorite, although 1697 and Islas are also very good for fish. Try the fresh fish with garlic at Mitas or if you are adventurous the fish
with Diablo Sauce. If you want Mexican food, Super Burro has a funny name but is the best!

Mexico lindo is still there, Judy, if the construction on Hidalgo hasn't done them in yet. The food is inconsistent-- sometimes great, sometimes not.
But I've never had a bad dinner at Pachamama, or at Islas Loreto.

I think no one has answered the question about the highway restaurant near El J...I don't remember the official name, something del Mar I think, but
we all just call it The Clam Shack. still there, still operating, still uneven in quality. some days good, some not. clams usually very good. do
watch your checks/totals...I have heard several reports of two separate ones, one for the table/payer, one for the register.
reality\'s never been of much use out here...
