My girlfriend and I came here for drinks because we weren't about to wait 3 hours for a table. We ordered Palomas and flan, thinking we were about to have a cute little date night. Instead, we got lime water with commitment issues. ‍ If you LOVE tasting nothing but lime in your drinks, congratulations, you've found your spot! The flan was... okay. Not bad enough to call the police, but definitely not good enough to write home about. I'm hoping the food is MUCH better than what we tried because, honestly, the views were carrying this entire experience on their backs. Would I come back for the views? Absolutely. For the drinks and dessert? I might need a moment to heal. At least the scenery didn't disappoint!

One waiter working the whole restaurant. There was a sign out front that said "cash only" which was odd. We followed up and they said we could still pay with a card. We started with drinks which were watered down. Then a Mexican combo plate and fish tacos. The fish tacos was fried halibut, not grilled, topped with just lettuce and a spoonful of guacamole. The Mexican combo was a taco chili relleno and a cheese enchilada. Both came with rice and beans which were bland. The side salad was equally disappointing with a romaine leaf, cucumber tomato and papaya. The blue cheese dressing was from Smart & Final. The only good thing was the Mexican coffee that came with the meal. It's sad to see what La Fonda has become with its history and was once considered the best restaurants in the area.

Came for Nana's birthday, left with a new Puerto Nuevo favorite!…read more Everyone on TikTok seems to say "Go to Ortega's!" when talking about Puerto Nuevo, but last time we went it was just okay and a little pricey (making the fam shuffle to put pesos together since it was cash only). We were celebrating my Nana's birthday and had a bigger group than usual, so I started looking around on yelp for other options. There are SO many little lobster restaurants along this street, but this place had good reviews, the pictures looked good, so we figured- why not try something new? And I'm SO glad we did. Actually, before we even got there, all the restaurant promoters were trying to get us into their places and asking where we were headed. Every time we said this restaurant, they were like, "Oh yeah, that's a really good place!" I'm sorry, but when the people trying to steal your business are ALSO admitting the place you're going to is good... I'm listening. We got in, immediately got a table, and they brought out chips, salsa AND fresh ceviche. Ceviche is one of my favorite foods, so at that point they basically had me. Then the food came out and the whole family was happy. The lobster was amazing, the tortillas were fresh, the rice and beans tasted like Nana made them herself, and the drinks were PHENOMENAL. Everything was flavorful and fresh, and we all had such a good time. What I really loved about this place is that it reminded me why sometimes the little local spots are better than the big, famous ones. You don't always need the biggest restaurant, the most viral TikTok, or the place with the best-known view to have an amazing meal. Sometimes you just have to look around and give one of the smaller places a chance. And this one absolutely delivered. The restaurant itself is quite a bit smaller than Ortega's, and you do have to walk up a few stairs, but nothing crazy at all. I actually liked the smaller, more intimate feel. And when we were walking out of the restaurant we say them preparing all kinds of ceviches and other dishes right there. We saw several things we hadn't tried before and immediately started making a mental list of what we want to order next time. This wasn't just a one-time birthday dinner either -- I've already come back since her birthday, and now this is the place I recommend when anyone asks me where they should eat in Puerto Nuevo. So TikTok can keep telling everyone to go to Ortega's. Me and the real foodies are happily enjoying this little spot instead. 10/10. Nana-approved. Family-approved. Ceviche-approved. Can't wait to go back again

We found this spot on Yelp, after looking through other reviews and comparing them to other spots…read morein the area. We were also welcomed by someone promoting this restaurant on the street/inviting people to check out the food. I realized later that they also have a downstairs bar and restaurant (you can also preview the seafood selections from the cart). We opted to eat upstairs since they had a bit of a view with a more open seating area. Only about 3 tables have the view of the water/beach, while the rest of the tables are either on the side overlooking the street, in the middle of the restaurant, or on the side where you can kind of see the view. They also have a nice photo opp/background also on one of the sides facing the water view. We were welcomed and seated and got to check out the different sized lobster options (this was what immediately drew us to this spot initially). We were greeted with complementary chips, salsa, pico de gallo, and ceviche. It was a nice welcome surprise. We got an order of 3 medium lobsters and an order of garlic shrimp. We also got a bottle of Tecate and a Carajillo cocktail. One of the neighboring areas had a mariachi band serenading different tables in their outdoor restaurant area. And that provided a lot of entertainment for our seafood feast. We also had other musicians come through our restaurant to try to serenade us, but nobody seemed to want to fork over any money. The drinks came pretty quickly and even though I'm not big on beer, the chilled bottle just somehow made sense and tasted a lot better. The Carajillo was tasty and served with an orange slice. I felt like it was the perfect combination to the coffee forward cocktail. The Appetizer was delicious, although I'm not big on any spicy items, the salsa was good in small doses. The ceviche and pico de gallo were super fresh, as were the tortilla chips. When we got the main courses, they came out rather quickly. They were split and halved. Same with the shrimp. These dishes were also served with an order of beans with rice, freshlu made flour tortillas, as well as a side of butter dipping sauce. The food was extremely fresh and came out rather quickly. Our server seemed to be a bit attentive and check on us a couple of times. When we finished, we ended up getting 1 homemade flan to share and another Carajillo to pair. The drink was just as good as the first one and prepared similarly. The flan was tasty, just a bit on the sweet side for me. It was the waiting that kinda got to me. It wasn't that they forgot about us, but that we were probably waiting around for a bit before the server came back to check on us. We may have waited an extra 10 minutes before we got the check, paid, and left. Food and drinks: 5 stars Service: 4 stars (courteous and respectful, just bit less attentive than we would've hoped for.

Came here during our Disney Cruise after being recommended by Octavio from the Hacienda Doña…read moreEngracia Tequila Factory (not on Yelp yet, but it's above the Diamond International store). He recommended this place for their fresh seafood and said it's a local favorite. To get here, you have to walk past all the hawkers trying to pull every tourist into their restaurants--it's literally toward the end of the strip. You might even miss it because no one is trying to wave you in. Just look for the sign after you pass a statue of a human heart; it's across from two statues of fishermen. Once you find it, there's both indoor and outdoor seating. The indoor area is smaller, but we didn't mind, with a very simple decor. The menu is in Spanish, so if you don't speak the language, have a translator app ready. While we waited for our food, we noticed mostly locals coming in--which is usually a good sign. Our waiter spoke English and was very attentive. He even warned us that one of the bottles of sauce was extremely spicy (he wasn't kidding). After we ordered, he asked if we were really hungry. I didn't think much of it at the time... until the food arrived. We ordered margaritas that were freshly made (not from a premix), and they paired perfectly with all the seafood. We mostly ordered shareable dishes. First up was a half-dozen oysters. They were some of the freshest we've ever had--cleaned and shucked even better than many places in the U.S. Next was the half-order of house ceviche, which turned out to be a surprisingly large serving. It had shrimp, tuna (I believe), and octopus, mixed with chopped cucumber, tomato, avocado, and cilantro, and was served with tostadas and crackers. It wasn't a typical ceviche because it had a touch of soy sauce that made it really good. Adding their hot sauce took it to another level. Our last dish was garlic shrimp and noodles served with a side of bread. Another surprisingly generous portion--the two of us couldn't finish it, though I gave it my best shot. Overall, I highly recommend this place if you love seafood with a nice fusion of Mexican, French, and Japanese flavors. If you're coming from the cruise port, skip the tourist traps and make this your go-to for fresh, excellent seafood.
