Luis, our server tonight was wonderful, very attentive while providing wonderful dinner recommendations. We ended up ordering two out of the three dinner specials offered tonight: Rib Eye (1 kilo) over sautéed veggies and arugula. This dish is so large, the steak is large enough to share between 4 people! Cooked to absolute perfection, this medium rare piece of heaven is a MUST! Nice change from the tacos we've been having for the past 3 days.. Yellow tail, wow - y'all about freshness. Fish lover? Order this! Linguini pasta toased in a thick white cream sauce with mushrooms and TRUFFLE oil?! Yes please! This is deeeelishhhh! The Garlic Soup!? OMFG! If there's in secret/hidden gem on the menu it's this item! So good, I'm going to TIP that, you have to order it! The pizza is also yummy, cooked in an open fire place oven, the crust is perfect. Overall, a great atmosphere, ambiance and chill vibe. The food, delicious, the service - great!

As Sayulita transitions from a sleepy surf town to a trendy tourist mecca, big city restauranteuers…read moreare making their way here. Increasingly, they bring big city attitude and behavior which is in direct contrast with the local business people and restaurant operators. One such case is Leda. We have enjoyed numerous meals at Leda in the 4 years that it has been open. Last night was the last. In a sheer display of audacity, the restaurant would not provide a wine list, instead suggesting that its list changes rapidly. I am ok w that. Where my problem lies is that when asked if we wanted Cabernet, Pinot, etc., the waiter directed us to a particular ($13 retail) Italian wine. Without sharing the price, and frankly, me not asking the price, I went on trust that my selection would be a reasonably priced wine ($40-$60). Anything higher I would have expected a confirming comment from the waiter. No such thing. After enjoying a wonderful dinner and 2 bottles of wine, I was shocked to see that the 2 bottles of wine cost more than the multicourse meal for 6. I was shocked and felt violated. Certainly I share some of the blame for not asking but going back to my opening comment, the owner (from LA) is just looking to gouge his transient guests. I did approach the owner and he was dismissive and non accommodating, rather suggesting it was my fault and apologizing for not training his staff well. Enjoy dinner here at your own risk. I am not the first to write a review like this. My suggestion is to enjoy a meal at one of the many local operators. They love having you and are in it for the long haul. I have cancelled my reservation for 10 next week at Leda.

It's tucked back in a little neighborhood and was very unassuming. Man was I happily surprised! The owner (I believe?) was behind the counter with her young adorable son. I ordered the Hawaiian burger (PINEAPPLE!) with fries and a beer. It smelled SO good, and I was not even surprised that it tasted even better. Her son helped to serve me - brought out like... seven different dipping sauces, pickles, and jalapenos. I devoured the burger - and the fries were perfectly fresh and crispy. I was reading a book and sitting on the patio and they didn't mind me camping out for a while. Her son was super quick to keep my beer refilled and clear plates. After I was done, he even brought out a super fresh little platter of cucumber, jicama, celery and carrots with lime and tajin. Delicious little treat. After a while the owner even brought me over a little bowl of homemade soup she was making to try! SO NICE, SO ACCOMODATING! Payment was super quick and easy. I wish I'd found them sooner, I would have 100% been there a few times. GREAT find!

I ended up eating here 3 times during my stay at the hotel (see separate review). I was the only one eating late afternoon lunch while waiting for my room to be ready. The Mahi-Mahi Fish & Chips was breaded differently than any I've had before, but it was good and the fish was not overdone. They didn't have malt vinegar but the vinegar provided was ok. Corona beer at about 80 pesos was cheap compared to US. Intrigued, I tried the vegetarian Green Omelet for breakfast. Green olives, zucchini, avocado, you get the picture. It tasted better than it looked. For dinner, Tortilla soup was good but a bit too salty for me. I'm not sure what "Artisan Pasta" means, but the Artisan Fungi pasta was excellent; along with the cream sauce, it was probably the best tasting I've ever had! Loaded with mushrooms! The martinis were also pretty cheap at about 79 pesos. So cheap I had 2. The wait staff was very attentive. Food took a bit longer to arrive than I expected, especially since I was one of two guests eating there during my meals; however, the next time I'm in the area, even if not staying at the hotel, I'd definitely stop by for more Artisan Pasta.
