Best Food in Loreto?
Recommendations please.
I recall a great fish taco stand under a playapa in Loreto, can't remember the name. What is your favorite Loreto Taco Stand for fish tacos?
How about other restaurants?
Happy Holidays amigo's.
Thanks,
Iflyfish

El Rey on Juarez. The best! The fish tacos are great but the cabeza are better and the tripa are my favorite. Only open till noon or so. Open / closed
at different days, no set days in the week.

Francisco is his name, and the best fish taco's in Baja is his "claim". El Ray Taco's on Juarez across from the Pemex station (or close to it but on
the opposite corner & across the street. His sister runs one also in Insurgantes. It's after you are traveling south, and you come to the
junction to either go right or left. Left will take you to Constitution. Turn right at that junction. The business will be on the right in that
block. It's a white building. Francisco's father started the El Ray in Loreto. Eventually, turning it over to Francisco, and opened the one in
Insurgantes, then turned it over to his daughter. don't know the hours or days, but the times we've been in the area, they were open. anyone with
accurate information on this one????? The fish taco's are excellent.

Mr & Mrs El Rey del Taco are among the "gente muy buena" here in Loreto.
Their fish tacos set the standard, IMHO.

Best food in Loreto? And then devolve to tacos? Sorry, but although I appreciate a great taco, I do have a problem associating it with "best food".
Perhaps the thread was not properly named.
Attempting to grow a consensus on the best tacos is darn near impossible.
However, just for the heck of it, we think Mita Gourmet and Domingos represent the best in Loreto, for vastly different reasons.

Another vote for el rey. The best fish tacos I've found in Loreto, or any place else, for that matter.....

howoddd,
I was responding to part a. of Iflyfish's question......and El Rey is the best fish taco hands down.
Now as for my favorite Loreto restaurant, it's Mita Gourmet all the way.
Juan Carlos made me a full platter of Plaza Shrimp for my birthday last year...........uff......so tasty!

El Ray for tacos.
Del Borracho for burgers and fries.
Islas for fresh fish. breakfasts are good, too.
Cafe Lolita for breakfast and lunch sandwiches (my face...turkey, brie, apples and almonds on homemade bread).
La Palapa if you're going to take your catch in to be prepared.
Mexico Linda for chili rellano.
Dominico's for steaks, but sides are fairly mediocre.
Ette's Pie Shoppe for dessert...fantastic pies, cheese and carrot cakes!
reality\'s never been of much use out here...

Now were talkin'!! Gracias amigos! Excellent choices and I did not ask the question well. When I formulated the question I had the most amazing fish
tacos on my mind, the savory batter and the moist sierra tacos slathered with guac, cabbage and sour cream! Man, oh, man! I'm sitting up here in the
north right now and the thought of those wonderful Mexican vitamins have my mouth watering as I shiver in the cold.
I can't wait to try some of the places you recommend and the pics are great!!! Loreto has changed so much since my first time there in the 70's and I
have not taken the time to sample the great restaurants there.
Thanks again amigos for your very thoughtful posts!

This is disgusting!!!!!
Here I sit with a light dusting of snow coming down and you all talk about fine eating and argueing the nuances of Fish Tacos. We could at least
discuss snow cones.
I suppose my jealousy is showing?

Huevos rancheros at Islas are da bomb!
The first time we ate there my wife took a bite of her food and got this strange look on her face. I asked her what was wrong and she said "I am
trying to figure out how this is so good."

Can't believe no one has mentioned Pangalapa for fish tacos. Oh.... maybe I shouldn't let the secret out.
Totally agree with Spearo about Islas huevos rncheros, like no other.

Pam!!!!!! What the heck are you doing in the cold country? And if I've got it right, you've been in Loreto for over 20+ years. I was surprised to
see you were the person asking that question.
Happy New year to you 'of the north'. And to my other Nomad amigo's.

Amigos, another vote Tacos del Rey...best tacos in Loretos and possibly the world. La Picazon 3-4 miles north of the Loreto Marina on the beach is a
must visit. Incredible food and view, well worth the trip. Incamann

Did anyone else catch the "Chuck's Week Off" segment when he was in Loreto. He did a nice job of showing the great food at Tacos del Rey as well as
visiting some ranches around San Javier and eating machaca and fresh cheese.
