Las Lupitas

Las Lupitas Review

It's only a block from the beach near the heart of the Golden Zone, but this chic and reasonably priced hotel restaurant provides a serene alternative to the ear-splitting beach-bar scene. There's a pleasant patio—if you don't mind looking at busy Avenida Playa Gaviotas—or a slightly mod dining room with wood-beam ceilings, polished stone floors, minimally dressed dark-wood tables, and a few red-and-white accents. At lunch you'll find simple, filling fare like ceviche, hamburgers, and fish tacos; at dinner the Mexican-Mediterranean menu is heavy on fresh fish specialties, like dorado in a honey glaze.
