I got their shrimp gobernador, which is shrimp quesadillas with bacon and pico de gallo They forgot the cheese so... I had to ask the waiter about it and they remade it. The shrimp was very fresh and the waiter was very nice. I just don't know how you forget the queso in a quesadilla so I guess check your food. read more

My family and I sat at the bar for dinner and it was a great view. You can see all the cars passing by. I could only imagine the view during sunset. I got the guacamole and fish tacos. They have a green salsa there that's actually pretty good I couldn't stop getting some! The service was good! read more

Stopped by for a couple of drinks and some food. Both were delicious. We sat upstairs and had an amazing view of the beach. Staff was friendly and attentive. read more

Food glorious food! Cocktails and room with a veiw of the sunset over the Bay of La Paz. Where so many visitors and locals go to dine and embibe. It had been 15 years since my last visit and glad we put it on the top of our dining list. In between seasons, it was a quiet evening but things will pick-up soon. The staff was so welcoming and provided great service. We started with house chips and salsa - of course! I enjoyed fish tacos with fresh sea bass. Three big tacos - one went home for lunch the next day. An order of nachos was too much to finish. I had a Margatita with Jamaica - so refreshing. Mike enjoyed Mai Tais. We arrived fairly early so we could watch the sun go down. More guests arrived later. Tailhunters has been a mainstay on the La Paz Malecon for many years. Also, well known for their sportfishing trips. read more

AVOID! Horrible Management! I am a Certified Top 1% TripAdvisor Pro and also leaving a bad review there too. We were a Party of 13 and they made us climb tiny stairs to the second floor whilst the entire restaurant was empty on a Friday night. That should have been the first sign to avoid this place. The assigned 2 waiters to 1 table and both didn't speak English. We ordered a blended Pina Colada and they wouldn't understand. Are you kidding me? Next, we placed orders and they got 4 of the 13 orders wrong. For example, our son eats his burger plain. They brought it with cheese after about 30 minutes on a night with no other customers. We complained. Then, the manager comes and raises his voice with us saying we said "with cheese." Okay buddy, we have been ordering our food the same way for many years. Just accept your mistake and re-make; but he raises his voice and gets aggressive. BEWARE! Avoid! We ordered Tecate Regular and they brought Tecate Light. Then they get upset and raised their voices to us. Not acceptable. They would not accept fault in messing up the orders yet the manager had the tenacity to raise his voice and yell at our party. We advised our AirBNB host to advise all guests to avoid this place as well. read more

The fish was fresh and tasty. Many of the other dishes around us looked very good. Service was excellent and any need was immediately taken care of. Ambiance was like LaPaz. There was also some great music. read more

Meh, mango margaritas are nothing special. I left most of mine. The nachos were ok but little flys attacked as soon as they were served. Our waiter was very nice as was the view. The fish tacos were good. Wouldn't go back. read more

Back from another awesome fishing trip to La Paz with Tailhunter International.  It was my girlfriend's 4th trip down and she's digging it more every year.  On the first day, Captain Victor took no time to put us on a half dozen dorados at Las Arenas. My girlfriend even bounced her first 10-plus pound fish onto the deck.  Before the day was over, she reeled in her first Marlin.  Two great firsts for her.  On the ride back to the hotel, we met a new buddy from Ventura who'd never had a bite at the Tailhunter Cantina over the 20 years he's been coming down.  When we convinced him that Jonathan and Jilly have the best shrimp tacos in La Paz (and San Diego for that matter), he just had to try them.  Sure enough, after we cleaned up and walked down to the Cantina, we see our new pal enjoying what he described as "the best tacos ever"! We fished the La Paz side on the second day.  Captain Joel effortlessly had us on 10 pretty acrobatic mahi mahi.  Girlfriend was exhausted and famished after fishing so off to Tailhunter for drinks and the best tacos in La Paz.  Of course our new pal from Ventura had just finished up a plate of tacos by the time we arrived.  The third day of fishing was kinda short since we had to run back to the hotel and pack up for the flight home.  So Captain Joel quickly found four dolphin fish for us to bag along with a Cabrilla and a Pargo.  Not shabby at all for a quick dip in the water. There just is no competition if you want to experience panga fishing on the Sea of Cortez, have the ability to reel in multiple species with the most skilled and experienced guides, taste the best tacos in La Paz, and enjoy the hospitality and aloha from two of the most beloved people you will ever know (I'm looking at you Jonathan and Jilly). 5 stars for Tailhunter Fishing 5 tacos for Tailhunter tacos 5 gazillion thumbs up for Jonathan and Jilly Thanks again Jonathan and Jilly! We love your show! read more

Great food, people, view, and atmosphere! We asked about their homemade jalapeño salsa and the waiter came back with information on how to make it. Super great experience and very memorable. Drinks were also delicious and generous. Will come back again. read more

I was really convinced to give it a try because they have a fishing show on YouTube. I convinced myself that I was going to have the best fish taco in town. I was a bit disappointed as it tasted like it had been frozen for days and really had no flavor. I am one to give places a second chance I just have not gotten myself to go there yet. This was about six months ago. They sometimes have bands playing at this location, and it looks like fun but I can honestly say this place caters to out-of-town tourist and they probably arrange fishing trips and commit them to eating at this restaurant after their trip but I could be wrong. It is very rarely that I see locals eat there. read more

Fresh Seafood and a great place to watch the games. My favorite is the fish and chips. Will be back for sure.

Really good mango margaritas!! The food was so so. It wasn't mind blowing but it was quick and all the waiters are very nice. I'm not sure if we would come back to eat but at night it looked pretty packed so maybe we'll stop by to check out the bar scene. The view is nice as you're directly across the street from the ocean but on a hot summer's day, even in the shade it's still pretty miserable bc the whole place is outdoors. We were sweating and wish there had been more fans on us but it was a very fast meal. Super sweet staff, it's always helpful to know a few words of Spanish (of course you really should since you're in Mexico & you better know at least a few simple sentences!!) but even so the waiter knew some English as well. read more

definitely meant for the American tourists I think, judging from the website and the menu lol but overall the food was decent and service was good. I think there's a lot of better (& more authentic) places for tacos with more options by overall a good experience. they had a live singer singing country when we went and he was really good! read more

This place was recommended to us and boy did we appreciate it! Jill and Jonathan are sweethearts. They make you feel welcome right away. The food is phenomenal! The fish tacos were so good be went back the next night for more! Great live music on the second night. If you're in La Paz you don't want to miss this gem! read more

Keep in mind, the restaurant is closed on Wednesdays (like most restaurants in the area). Our first experience at La Paz was enhanced by Tailhunter's owner, Jonathan. Free tequila shots on our first night in La Paz - what a grand welcome! It felt like we were welcomed in a family environment at Tailhunter's! We enjoyed the live country music. Food was tasty! We had yellowtail sashimi and our server recommended tacos with fish Al mojo de ajo. The seafood was perfectly cooked and well seasoned. Our margaritas and micheladas were inundated with plenty of alcohol. We had such a great time with Jonathan as our host. My husband and nephew also had fishing trips reserved with Jonathan's company and they caught 12+ species of fish! Jonathan's crew was so hard working packing the gear and their lunches/breakfasts. His crew made sure my family had a great time. I'm looking forward to the next time we're here. We are going to have his crew cook the fish they caught for us. Will save money to book next year's trip. Jonathan will set up our hotel accommodations, fishing trips, etc. thanks for an amazing time! read more

This was a good restaurant. The food was good. Large portions and tasty. A variety of Mexican, seafood and hamburgers. Service was good. The drinks were good but not strong. The really great thing about this place is the view. Come at sunset and drink it in. Unfortunately it has to compete with the many televisions in the place. I would have preferred there abscene. read more

OSKAR!!! Best server EVER!!! Tailhunter is a good place to go to get just regular Mexican food and watch American football. We came here for dinner on my first night in La Paz. There are a lot of stairs to get up to the bar, but the decor is fun. My carne asada tacos were delightful. I did wish they came with more beans and rice, though. On a second visit, I got a burger that had teriyaki sauce on it. I gobbled up half of it with fries. (I was super hungry). The view from the top deck is great. Very chill place to have food and drinks. Thank you for your hospitality, Oskar. read more

I have no idea what these guys are doing and I don't think they do either. Big meh on the food and a big WTF on the service.

Great menu. Awesome location. Not always open as posted. It get busy on the weekends. read more

The food was excellent, ended up eating here three times. The first time I had the rajas - a so simple, yet so delicious mixture of corn, roasted poblano chilies and other ingredients. So good that I had to come back the next afternoon and have more. Then as I was leaving my friends arrived so I stayed for dinner as well. The fish tacos, ceviche and the other menu items we ate were excellent. Jonathan and Jilly are perfect hosts - Jonathan weaves through the tables in his bandelero shotgun sash the filled with shot glasses pouring complimentary tequila. The jalapeño and the Jamaican (hibiscus tea) margaritas are superb read more

With the unbelievable vista over looking the Malecon in La Paz, Tailhunter never disappoints! If you're a family who is ready to enjoy your fresh caught fish, or simply a passer by you NEED to treat yourself to a fun and casual experience here! What they can do with fish that was swimming that very morning is unbelievable! Mexican meets a bit of Hawaii here! Even if you don't like fish, there's plenty of options, from burgers to tacos, and beyond! DO NOT FORGET THE FLAN!! Friendly staff, and information on La Paz is available always! Plenty of sports on TV's spread around for the sports addicts like myself too! (If you're interested!) Don't like sports, watch the AMAZING sunsets from the balcony! Can't wait to get back next year!! read more

Best Customer Service in the area!! The owners of the restaurant Jilly booked everything from the shuttle at the airport to our fishing trip, hotel and excursions!! Other than the most wonderful hospitality ever , my favorite part was catching the fish and then coming to their restaurant and having them cook it for us I'm from Texas so Guacamole is a big deal to me lol, and theirs was a 5Guacamole , it wasn't just mashed avocados . The flavor was on point !! This is the best place to sit have a margarita and watch the sunset it was stunning. And as the sun set, the live music started and the dancing and the laughs. It's family friendly and a lot of fun. Jilly and Johnathan out do themselves to make your entire trip perfect , fun , and completely relaxing. I've been many places and have had great service but this is by far the best customer service ever! I can't wait to see what's in store for next year read more

We not only ate at the Tailhunter restaurant, but we also joined one of their guided fishing tours. The fishing trip was a lot of fun, and my husband was especially delighted that he caught several huge fish because this was his first time fishing in over a decade. Jonathan, the owner, was really personable and made sure we were well-taken care of. He worked hands on with the servers to ensure we were getting great service. And the food! The food was fantastic. We had a gorgeous grilled garlic sea bass topped with fresh salsa verde. I loved my mango margarita, and my husband loved his premium margarita. read more

Wow, what can I say? This place is the Best eats in the entire La Paz! Truly amazing food quality, creatively prepared and served to you by a 5-star kitchen and wait staff!! The location of this restaurant and the decor is Primo! Don't forget to have the ceviche, sashimi, and many many tasty Tailhunter mango margaritas!! Your trip to La Paz is not complete until you've gone to this very very special place.

I swear they sprinkle crack on the tortilla chips here. Can't stop eating them. Especially with the different salsas they provide. Soooo gooood....... I caught a dog tooth snapper. They made fish head soup for us with it. OMG!!!! First time for me... what? I know! Bring your catch in early enough in the day to give them enough time to prepare it for you. So many different ways... Also a first for me was aguachile.... it's Amazing and addicting. Getting hungry just writing about it... Much much more on the menu... mmmmmmm read more

My friend Ryan and I recently made a trip to La Paz utilizing the services of Tailhunters International. I have known Jonathan Roldan for 20 years. Jonathan & Jilly have blossomed Tailhunters into the hands down finest first class total package experience you could ever want. From the pre-travel instruction package, to the shuttle vans and accomodations. Fishing & diving trips to the Tailhunter Bar & Grille with some of the finest food in La Paz. You feel as though you have a hedge of protection around you and you are part of their loving family. Jonathan and Jilly Roldan have created something very special for their clients & friends and I would recommend them to anyone that wants to experience a trip of a lifetime with no worries.

Tailhunter prepared some of the fish that we caught that day, and wow it was absolutely incredible! We started off with some delectable and light cabrilla ceviche. The hint of onion and cilantro were incredible. Then, for the main course we had grilled mahi mahi with a garlic sauce, beer battered sailfish and Vera Cruz style sailfish. We also had beautiful side dishes of beans and a pepper and corn dish that was savory and sweet at the same time. Drinks got topped off quickly, and the server was attentive and responsive to questions. It blew our minds and we could eat there every night. Thank you Jonathan and Jill for another outstanding fishing trip and for the memorable meal. read more

Tailhunters is amazing. Tailhunters took us out deep sea fishing. We came home with lots of fish! That night their chef cooked up some of our fish for dinner! You choose what type of sauce and style of cooking. It was fantastic! We ate at Tailhunters for several meals during our vacation. Service was excellent, food delicious, and the prices very reasonable. They also have the best view in town! Lynn and Carl Bock read more

Tailhunter was good before the pandemic when they actually had good, fresh fish on the menu but we tried to go there yesterday and last year and all they have now are tacos and hot dogs. We didn't even bother to eat since the menu was so limited and lame. The worker who was nice enough told us that they are waiting for the owner to return and tell them that it's ok to bring back the old menu. Maybe the owner could use a phone and call them? read more

Amazing tacos and even better service! The staff went above and beyond! And a great place to catch the sunset!

Great service !! Friendly servers . A little down from all the madness which was nice. Had the fish tacos. Very good and hearty with lots of meat. Also ordered the carne asada nachos. Meat was tasty and flavorful. Washed it all down with a house margarita ! Great experience-will come back read more

Food & drink are fine, the fish tacos are really tasty. The owner, Jonathan, is a friendly character & gives out free shots. But service is very slow, the bald manager has an attitude... and they called to cancel our reservation once!! Such a shame.... we went every week to see the awesome western singer "Shooter Ford", but not any more. I won't go anywhere that treats their regulars like that. :-( read more

Only go for the tacos and the view. We got the shrimp tacos (tacos gubernator) which were excellent, but everything else was mediocre at best. The tortilla soup was decent, the guacamole was mediocre, a little dry and with too much cilantro for our taste. The Mexican rice was very ordinary and quite spicy, the side of corn wasn't to any of our taste (possibly canned, and flavor was a bit odd). The unsweetened iced tea was unusually sour. The heater wasn't working yet because it was newly purchased. Our server was very nice but he failed to implement one of our food requests, and even when he noticed his mistake, he did not correct it (though we did not explicitly ask him to). However, the live music (county duo) was nice. read more

The best guacamole ever. And I'm from so cal and have had my share. Get here and get some. Watch the sunset over the sea of Cortez. All the food was great. We ate here 3 times in 5 days. They have American football on weekends. Great service and location. read more
