They have their own big parking lot. It felt very safe. They have like 3 floors with floor to ceiling windows so you can see the beautiful ocean view. The service was prompt and good. We ordered a Mariscada #1 for 1,850 pesos. It was enough for 4 people. You can always ask for more flour tortillas, rice & beans. The lobster and shrimp were tasty. The freshly made flour tortillas are huge and delicious! I ordered a piña cola 4/5. It can get a little noisy with the various mariachi or lively band that plays if you pay them, Enjoy. read more

If you're looking for the ultimate seafood escape with views that soothe your soul and flavors that dance on your tongue, RUN to Poseidon in Puerto Nuevo. I'm here on a quick getaway before the school year consumes my entire existence (fellow teachers, you feel me), and this place was exactly the recharge I needed. First of all, location perfection. We literally parked right in front. My car was safe the whole time, and I tipped the guy just to keep an eye on it, but really, it couldn't have been more secure or convenient. This restaurant is perched on a cliff overlooking the crashing waves of the Pacific. Floor-to-ceiling windows give you a front-row seat to the ocean's endless performance. Modern vibe with cement and structural steel. It's serene, breathtaking, and a total feast for the eyes. Speaking of feasts... OH. MY. SEAFOOD. We ordered the mega seafood platter and it came out in a giant boat-shaped dish (yes, a BOAT!) loaded with succulent lobster tail, tender octopus, sweet crab claws, flaky fish, and plump shrimp. It was preceded by a warm, comforting seafood soup. A live mariachi band serenaded while we ate, and the vibe was festive without being overwhelming. And for those traveling with little ones, there's an adorable kids' area in the center of the restaurant with a slide and tiny chairs. We traveled with a one-year-old who was entertained and safe. The prices were reasonable (but pricy) for the quality and experience. Just a heads up: lots of places around here try to lure you in with flashy discounts, but honestly, they are gimmicks. Everyone's just getting young in the door. TLDR: The food, views, and service speak for themselves. I keep braving the border wait at San Ysidro for a reason... worth it. read more

Puerto Nuevo is a wonderful place to visit, especially for its vibrant atmosphere and renowned lobster dishes. The lobster, nachos, drinks is so good! The soup is okay for me. The atmosphere is wonderful and the people are friendly. read more

This is a massive restaurant facing the ocean, with four levels. Two people told me that they take credit cards, but let it be known - they DO NOT take credit cards. So get cash ahead of time (pesos or dollars). The restaurant is extremely clean, with beautiful windows facing the ocean. They definitely structured this location to take advantage of the wonderful view here. The classic Puerto Nuevo dish is langosta/lobster, served with rice beans, and tortillas. And that's what I had. The days of this meal being just a few dollars are over, and you will be paying a premium price for this location and the view. Unfortunately, the lobsters were very much overcooked. It seems like, reading the other reviews, overcooking everything is a feature of this restaurant. To handle large groups like ours, they may have food sit in warmers for a while. The portions of rice and beans were small, but it worked with the complimentary chips to feed our group. Service was not great at first - we had a long wait before orders were taken. But after that, the service was prompt and very good. When they told me that my credit card was no good there, they were patient while I searched the local area for an ATM machine. There is complimentary parking in their lot next to the restaurant, and there is a large hill going back up to the highway. So be prepared to walk uphill after eating at this location. read more

Poseidon - The medium lobster platter. - Seafood Near Me - Puerto Nuevo, BCN

This place is huge with 4 stories. The service is pretty good with staff around. The seafood platter is huge with something for everyone. The fish was a bit fishy but everything was ok. The ceviche and shrimp quesadilla were good. The handmade tortillas were really good. Prices are decent with a large menu with items from sea and land. read more

So the best thing about this place is the view. The food was just okay. Ive been coming down here for years and wanted to try something new. Bacon wrapped shrimp was better than the lobster. To me the lobster had no flavor. The lobster was over cooked and was tough to eat. My steak was overcooked and I couldn't tell you what cut of meat it was. I know how to cook Puerto style lobster back home so I was not impressed. I will say the prices were low enough we didn't feel ripped off. read more

There's only a few recommended places in Puerto Nuevo and My favorite is the Poseidon Restaurant, the spectacular view of the pacific might be the best in this area, all 3 floors nothing but a perfect ocean view, look it up ** The food was good with a full open Bar, try the Camarones al mojo de Ajo and Strawberry Mojitos lol. its about 20 minutes south of Rosarito worth the drive. read more

Came here for the 1st time, food and service is good but they do not accept credit card so you must pay cash, unfortunately, the restaurant current exchange currency is $16.00 Mexican pesos which is way low compared with other places at $17.50. I won't recommend this place due the lack of charges. read more

Poseidon - Table - Seafood Near Me - Puerto Nuevo, BCN

The view at this restaurant is amazing! The food was delicious, we started off by ordering 8 micheladas, 2 guacamole and 4 orders of lobster tail specials which includes 6 tails, rice, beans and tortillas. All for $160 for a party of 7 The service was a bit slow but understandable because of the short staff. The waitress was very patient and served us well. Handicap parking is available and this restaurant is also wheelchair friendly. It has recently opened about 2 yrs ago. Plenty of parking spaces. read more

Great location over looking the water. Huge space with plenty of seating and plenty of window tables. We got a couple different plates, one being the $18 special with three lobsters split in two and then lobster with crab claws. They came with a delicious tortilla soup, rice, beans and tortillas. The tortillas, rice and beans are to die for! The lobster was good but I could definitely do without the crab claws. They were pretty dry, maybe over cooked. I'm not sure but they were "ok" but wouldn't order them again. Maybe just an off day for them but too much work for the meat for me. The rest was delicious and I'll definitely be back. read more

My friends took me here for the first time. We came during during a weekday so it wasn't extremely busy but some small groups. this is a newer spot I've been to several others in the lobster village but this may or may not be my new go to. you don't have to park in the dirt lot before entering the village as this place has their own parking area which seems really secure. this spot is located in the opposite corner or the Famous and somewhat classier Ortega's if you don't know where it is it's at the bottom to closest to the water on the left while Poseidon is on the far right. this place is not fancy but definitely not a hole in the wall spot either. great view we ordered a family platter that was good enough for us 3 adults and 2 children. great service snd prices seemed comparable to most of the other spots. provecho! read more

Eh. Lovely location right on the water. But the interior is concrete floors, ugly, cheap black tables and chairs. Really ugly. San Diego prices for very mediocre food. The fajitas were very bland. Rice and beans unflavored. How can you ruin Mexican rice and beans in Mexico? Apparently you can. I ordered garlic shrimp. There was lots of garlic, but the shrimp weren't shelled. I peeled them, and the actual shrimp had no flavor. My fingers did, though, from peeling the shrimp. So a bit of shrimp flavored by licking my fingers after each bite. The Pina Coladas were okay. I live in Puerto Nuevo, this was my first visit with some guests from California. Won't return. Lunch as $60 USD. Outrageous for the quality. read more

We walked in mid afternoon and the restaurant was almost empty. We ordered a number of items, lobster, crab, a burrito and fish sticks for the kids. The best part was the fresh tortillas. Yeah, the lobster was not good. It tasted like someone had thrown it in the microwave from earlier. Nice views, but we wouldn't go back. Also, they don't take credit card. Good thing we had some American cash. read more

The food was atrociously bad..I can't believe it has such good ratings.I got lobster and steak. The lobster seemed sketch after one bite I couldn't eat more and the steak was super well done. We had a large group of 16 and the birthday girl got a carnita burrito. It was just meat and a tortilla with nothing in it. Not flavorful. When the bill came they gave themselves an automatic $100 tip and they told us they didn't take credit card...please a restaurant that big...talk about ripping off tourists...we had to scrounge for cash because no one is just walking around with that much cash in Mexico. I would highly not recommend this place..you will get bad food and scammed. read more

After a majestic horse ride into the beach i was startled by my appetite, i hastily looked for a tasty meal EL POSEIDON caught my eye, as i was escorted by a very persistent man who was promising breakfast. As i enter the establishment i was greeted by a waitress and asked where I would like to be seated without any hesitation i asked her to seat me on the second floor with a beachfront scenery, the place looks beautiful but after taking a closer view at things i quickly started to see the flaws of the unfinished building and interior. I ordered a lobster with filet and i was presented with a tasteless dish that didn't match my beachfront scenery i made the best out of my time with my company as the food left me desiring more. read more

Delicious margaritas and food! Medium lobster is a decent size I could have definitely had another one. The beans, rice and tortillas all worked together to get me full. Beautiful ocean view seating. It's big and airy and fyi it's at the bottom of the street so it's a long walk down and back up (inclined hill for the ladies in heels) bring flats. read more

Showed up with 6 families, 22 adults and children. Waitress would not separate the bill. We asked if we should go back out and come in one family at a time, she still advised that the owner does not permit splitting bills. I asked to speak to the owner and was denied. I attempted to work something out with the waitress but she did not want to work with me. I told her that if we left, that she would be losing 22 people worth of revenue, she said its ok, we can recuperate it in no time. We got up and left. The reason for us needing split bills was because they do not take any credit cards or debit, cash only. Bad service all around. We ended up at Restaurant Mar Y Tierra. Best food ever. read more

This was the 2nd time my wife ate lobster at Poseidon and we will be back. The hombre who helps you park is a funny guy and very friendly. Both times we shared the house special which is 3 smallish lobsters and all the fixings for $18US. Mariachi bands can be very loud as the acoustics in the place amplify the music. View is amazing but it can get warm sitting with the sun beating down. Pro tip - open the sliding window above the big window to get some cool ocean air. read more

This place is a bit hidden but worth checking out. Prices are reasonable and the food is more than decent. I have to say the best part is the view you get with your meal. read more

Poseidon - Combination plate lobster shrimp fish and steak. - Seafood Near Me - Puerto Nuevo, BCN

We used to love this place. It's disappointing to see how much it has gone down not just the taste but the service as well. Now they add on the 18% of tip and honestly it's not worth it. We came on a Wednesday where it was not busy and our service sucked, our food was cold, and the drinks tasted bad. The servers hang out in the corner and rarely check on you and when they do they forget what you asked for or needed. Only thing we like is the parking but even with that we won't be back. read more

Been here twice so far and very fresh and delicious food. Like all the other restuarants in area they offer lobster specials and all come with a complimentary drink. The lobster I delicious, the guacamole is made to order, the agua chile we ordered they had options of red or green.... Basically everything on point. The service is good and the views from the terrace are so relaxing, love seeing the ocean while i dine. Recommend this restaurant 100% and will be returning read more

Location is right on the water. Food and drinks are good. Service is friendly. We will be back

The food is good and the service is friendly. Don't waste your time on the mixed drinks, they suck. I'm pretty sure they use tang in place on OJ for mimosas and tequila sunrise. The Long Island has a bizarre taste to it we couldn't figure out. All drinks tasted watered down too, including the Agua fresca (we had piña and tamarindo). Definitely recommend the food and the atmosphere especially if you get there before dark so you can enjoy the ocean view read more
