Mezquite grilled, highest quality meat. Incredibly tender. So juicy & FLAVORFUL. With 6+ years…read morelocal 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.
