Came for the shrimp and avocado pizza, ended up staying way longer than planned. Live music made it super easy to hang out with friends. 🍕

Stopped in for lunch and ended up coming back almost every day. The owner Alex remembers everyone, which is nice. I had a cold local beer with the veggie burrito and it hit the spot. They have banana bread with vanilla ice cream sometimes &mdash; get it if they do. Only downside, it gets busy and you might wait a bit.

The orange chicken surprised me, not gonna lie. Crispy outside, juicy inside, sauce was sweet and tangy but not overloaded with sugar. Ate it all before my rice even arrived. Solid spot if you&#39;re craving that.

The ceviche here was seriously good, probably my favorite along the coast. Sat on the balcony and just watched people go by for way too long. Super chill spot to hang with friends.

Solid local spot, food was good and the staff treated us right. Felt like a neighborhood place, not some tourist trap. Prices fair for what you get.

We came for the view and stayed for the food. The shrimp in coconut sauce was pretty good, and the happy hour margaritas were a decent deal. Service was fine, nothing fancy. Just wish the seating was a bit more comfortable. Overall a solid spot if you&#39;re in the area.

The gallo pinto was solid and the coconut iced coffee really stood out. Fresh fruit plate on the side was a nice touch. Prices felt fair for the quality. Place gets a bit busy around noon, but it&#39;s fine.

The fish really does taste like it was caught that morning. I got the spicy shrimp with peanut sauce and honestly couldn&rsquo;t stop eating it. Homemade lemonade was a nice touch too. Prices are fair for what you get. Wish I lived closer so I could come back more often.

Stopped by for a quick lunch and grabbed the ceviche. Fresh and tangy, exactly what I needed. Got my food fast too, no waiting around. Solid spot if you&#39;re in a hurry.

Stopped in for the fish and chips sandwich special. Really solid&mdash;fish was fresh, batter had a good crunch. The frozen margarita with no sugar added was a nice surprise, not too sweet. Place has that rustic feel, nothing fancy. We were in town for two weeks and came back a couple times. Only thing, service was a bit slow one afternoon. Still, worth it for the food.

Stopped by for lunch and grabbed the fish and octopus. Really fresh, cooked just right. Place is super low-key, nothing fancy. Bill was fair for what you got. Would eat here again if I&#39;m back in the area.

We stopped by a few times during our trip and tried several crepes, both sweet and savory. They were all pretty good. The owner is friendly and makes you feel comfortable. Juices and smoothies are decent too. Nothing fancy, but it worked for us. Maybe a bit slow when it gets busy, but fine overall.

Food came out quick and the staff actually checked on us a few times. Ceviche was solid, decent portion for the price. Beach bar vibe is casual, nothing fancy. Good spot if you&#39;re nearby and hungry.
