Mezquite grilled, highest quality meat. Incredibly tender. So juicy & FLAVORFUL. With 6+ years local residency, this was the best meal I've had in a long, long time.
Extremely expensive by local standards, but wow, what a treat. So worth it.
I think the steaks, Porterhouse, T-bone, ribeye, were all $675 pesos. NY strip might have been less.
There were other options, shrimp Alfredo, grilled, chicken, lobster... so what.
Had a perfectly cooked rare T-bone, salad with REAL HOMEMADE RANCH dressing (virtually nonexistent here), excellent clam chowder (to be fair, needed salt) & baked potato cooked to perfection - not undercooked & slightly too hard, as is so common.
Great service. But the meat was amaaaaazing. Well seasoned, lovely smokey, mezquite flavor. I was blown away by how tender. I forgot beef could be this fine.
My friend was in raptures over the rib eye, which was half the circumference of my meat, but 2ce as thick & cooked med well.
Restaurant was very dark at night, but there's wonderful ambience with hand made antique (& obsolete) concrete floor tiles, wood carvings, old ranchero antiques & cool lamps & lights made from gourds & local cardon cactus skeleton, iron & chain. A lot to look at.
Other expats gratefully eat here when they go to Loreto for Dr. appointments or supplies. A prized treat we don't have in our town.
If you're a fancypants gringo who routinely drops $65 on a steak up north, you may not be impressed with the accompanying side dishes, but this caliber of beefsteak is exceptional here. Skilled mezquite grilling lifts it to divinity.
Bless them. read more
