Found Orlando's through Yelp and the reviews definitely didn't disappoint. All of the food was incredible and the carne asada was among the best I've ever had.

We read about this restaurant in a recent community publication so decided to stop in and try them…read more The restaurant is located on the upper floor above Agua Viva realty office and next door to Giggling Dolphin. There is a tight narrow spiral staircase which you need to navigate to get to the restaurant however our 91 year old mother who only has one eye was able to manage this. Arriving to the top you have a beautiful open view dining area under a palapa with views of the town and the malecon. There are several tables for 4 along with a small bar area. We were immediately seated and greeted warmly by Veronica who is the owner along with her husband Luis. They do have a full bar along with bottled waters and a few different sodas in cans. The menu is simple and mostly seafood with one chicken dish and a few steak dishes. I am not a big seafood eater so I was happy that the menu could accommodate me as well as the rest of my family who loves seafood. Veronica reviewed the menu items with us and informed us that they only use fresh ingredients to cook their meals and listed ingredients such as sea salt, ground pepper, white wine, pablanos, garlic, chilis, mango and cilantro to name a few. She assured us they did not use MSG or processed ingredients. After ordering Veronica brought out a basket of freshly made chips along with their special salsa which is made from tuna, mayonnaise and chipotle - The chips were fresh warm and nicely seasoned, and the salsa was a definite hit and something very different for my family. The food is prepared fresh, so it was a bit of a wait, but sitting under the palapa we enjoyed the views and nice conversation. Two of us ordered the fresh fish which is served with rice and sweet peppers with mushrooms with a garlic sauce and I had the chicken with Poblano sauce and home made mashed potatoes. When the food arrived, the presentation was beautiful, and the flavor was amazing. The rice has a green coloring to it which Veronica explained was from seasoning with a poblano and cilantro mixture. The fish was cooked perfectly, and the garlic sauce enhanced the flavors and did not over power the food. The chicken with Poblano sauce was out of this world - the sauce was creamy and so flavorful but not spicy hot. The mashed potatoes were the best I have ever had dining out in a restaurant. All in all a great dining experience made even better by the wonderful owners, great food, and nice views. The total cost for two fish dinners, a chicken dinner, one soda and two mineral waters was $660 pesos

Lovely view, limited menu, pleasant service but high prices for all…read more Came to enjoy the sunset which was truly stunning from this second floor restaurant. Entrance is through a generic beige lobby and up a sharply inclined set of stairs. Not sure if elevator is available. Decor was unremarkable. Tables were set on glass tops with cutlery presented in a blue rolled cloth napkin for a touch of class but not reflecting the local handiwork of Mexico. As my arrival was earlier than most other sunset seekers, it was totally quiet in the restaurant. A server quickly came over to attend to me and brought me to the patio where he said I could sit wherever I wanted, which made sense since all tables were available. There are tables for two or four closest to the railing and plenty of other tables into rows behind that to ensure that the balcony view can be enjoyed by many. On the very slow weeknight, I was there a total of four tables they came occupied outside in the hour I was present, which wrapped up around sunset. The service was attentive without being overly intrusive. At one point the owner came by to check on me very politely, introducing himself And inquiring if I needed anything else. I decided it was time for a splurge, so had the lobster quesadilla. It was surprisingly delicious as I expected nothing very much, but was pleased to have it full of chunks of lobster as well as finely diced mild peppers. It came with two different sauces, one in a creamy base, and one the more traditional green tomatillo and pepper sauce. Neither was very spicy. The total for my soda water, and quesadilla was MX535 so about $30. This is a lot of money to pay in this sleepy beach town, so consider half the value to be in the view. This would be a romantic and lovely spot to come on a date for a drink and appetizers. Keep in mind, the prices are not what one pays for most food in the area, so this is more a splurge. Entrees appeared costly, as well, from the menu. As the menu is very brief, it would be fun to see some creative additions that work with local seafood. The menu was not anything special. It was nice to receive an amuse bouche with my soda, of a slice of toast with pico de gallo, but again, nothing extraordinary. TL/dr: great view, high prices make this a treat rather than a staple.
