My wife and I caught Dorado, sea bass, and yellow tail and vacuum sealed it the same day. We then took our fish to different restaurants over a 3 week period. The giggling Dolphin had a local and tourist friendly band called 477 that was really good. The restaurant has a boat/bar and décor that is really fun. The manager or owner greeted us and the service was excellent. The best way they prepared our Dorado was with a cilantro creme sauce that was unique and excellent!

I think I've gone to class heaven. The almejas ajo (garlic) are phenomenal! Service is friendly and prompt. Love this place. I've only done cocktails here so far but everything on the menu looks amazing.

Our favorite place to eat in Loreto, Mexico. Margaritas are top notch and well done with fresh limes and no mix. The owner was there both times we went and made sure everything was good. He prepared yellowtail that I caught with creamy cilantro sauce and it was the best meal we had in Loreto and we went to nearly every restaurant over two weeks.

Very cool bar (the bar is an old boat) and great prices! Food was very tasty and margaritas were excellent. Apparently they have live music some days, and the staff was all very friendly and helpful! CASH ONLY.

Really nice place just off the Malecon. Good prices, good food, good people and the owner seems very nice.

The food was good and the service was extraordinary. They didn't have any Dos XX even though it was on the menu, so my husband decided not to order a drink. Five minutes later the gentleman (owner) came from down the street with Dos XX for my husband. Now that's what I call great customer service.

One of the gems of Loreto. Some of the best micheladas in town!! Live music on Saturday nights and right next to the Malecon. If you bring your own fish they do them up three different ways, all delicious. Can't go wrong
