Fodor's Review:

This is the best place in town for seafood with an ocean view under a tall, peaked palapa roof. Besides seafood there are grilled chicken with baked potato, beef tips with rice and beans, soups, quesadillas, great guacamole, and fries. It's open all day (8 AM until 10 PM) and serves everyone from white-collar business types to families and friends meeting for lunch, to tourists cleaned up for an evening out. After your meal, kick your shoes off and take a walk on the beach.

The only thing special about this place is the open air location right on Los Muertos beach. It was destroy, and frankly needed to be because it had turned into a real dump, during hurricane Kenna. Rebuilt from the ground up, the atmosphere is lovely but the food and service are lowest common denominator touristy. Never horrible but nothing memorable.
