Don't fall for tourist traps, Mininos has the best whole fish, this is where the locals eat. Ask to see what fish they have for you before you order and get it whole do not order the filets of fish!

Excellent food, well cooked ( finally a grilled fish! ) we ordered the mariscada and we were two adults and two children, you get to taste everything and everything was very tasty. Right on the sea with your feet on the sand. To top everything it was also very cheap! Shame we did not return there the second night and... More

This was a delightful casual sea-side restaurant. Not only was the food great and the service friendly but the relaxed atmosphere was just what we needed for total unwinding. It has a sand floor so we don't recommend this on a windy day but on a gorgeous day you sit under open canopies so you catch every bit of breeze.... More

This restaurant was rated on Trip Advisor and the manager at El Milagro said this is where to go for great seafood. My husband had the stuffed fish which was unbelievable (for $12!) and I had ceviche (medium was enough for 2). Great meal and outside on the beach. Would recommend to anyone.

Yummy inexpensive seafood. Basic place right on beach with sandy floor. Maybe they could do a little bit more with making the place look a bit cleaner and inviting. Great spot though

Great food and a lovely view. Had some delicious fresh fish as we watched the local fisherman bring in their days catch. The place is not fancy, platic tables and chairs with a sand floor but it just adds to the character. Will definitely head back for a cold Sol and inexpensive fish dinner when we return.

Its a lovely outdoor restaurant by the sea. A various menu, but we especially liked the guacamole and the whole fried fish (you see the fish before they Cook it, so you know what you are eating). Try to bedste there a day they have a really fresh caught fish. The atmosphere is cozy, som musicians are playing xylophone every... More

Just walk by and you will have to stop and eat here. We had red snapper and it was sooo delicious. The drinks were very good. Also ordered fish filets and they were very good too. Definitely going back here for red snapper. So fresh!!
