An Acapulco institution, Tabasco Beach comes into its own each morning with a devoted breakfast clientele. The morning menu runs from the American (think omelets and eggs Benedict) to the Mexican, with salpicón, a mix of flank steak, eggs, and ranchero sauce. The buffet lunch makes it a popular lunch stop for cruise passengers. Evening gives way to a two-for-one happy hour, enjoyed alongside dinner options like red snapper, garlic shrimp, and mustard chicken. The whole production sits a few feet above the beach, creating a quintessential seaside restaurant.

Acapulco’s finest Asian restaurant fuses Eastern cuisine with the best of continental Europe in a modern setting overlooking Acapulco Bay. The dishes are primarily Vietnamese, with a touch of Korean, Malay, and Chinese mixed in. Start off with an appetizer of Vietnamese summer rolls or bún, a sliced fillet of beef with noodles and cilantro. Grilled sea bass satay in peanut sauce with jasmine rice or caramelized Vietnamese pork ribs are highlights of the main dishes. Choose from an extensive wine list that has a strong selection of vintages from Mexico’s very own wine country in the northern Baja peninsula. You also get some spectacular views of the bay for free, and the outdoor patio tables and indoor window seats fill up quickly on warm evenings in the dry season.

Along the Costera Miguel Alemán are several of these 24-hour restaurants specializing in quick service and light, healthy food: sandwiches made with whole wheat bread, soy burgers, chicken dishes, yogurt shakes, and fruit salads. You'll recognize these eateries by their green signs with white lettering. The original—the first, and best, in this now-national chain—is across from the Grand Hotel Acapulco.

As the name implies, young goat—served charcoal-grilled—is a specialty of this restaurant. You can also choose from among genuine Mexican dishes like chicken in mole (spicy chocolate-chili sauce); shrimp in tequila; and jerky with egg, fish, and seafood. Wash it down with a cold beer or glass of wine. The place opens at 2 every afternoon, so although you can have lunch here, it might be at a later time than you're accustomed.

This casual open-air street-side eatery specializes in hearty Mexican food. The place is open 24 hours most days—although on Tuesday the folks here open at a leisurely 3 pm—serving Acapulco's famous green-and-white pozole as well as steak dishes like filete tampiqueña (a strip of tender grilled beef), which comes with tacos, enchiladas, guacamole, and beans.

In the 1950s, this local favorite was a bohemian hangout that attracted renowned bullfighters along with Mexican songwriter Agustín Lara and his lady love, María Félix. You can see their photo over the bar and sample the same dishes that made the place famous back then: shark tamales, seafood casserole, or shrimp prepared with sea salt, curry, or garlic. The restaurant is smackdab in the middle of Playa Caleta, and there are free lockers for diners who want to take a swim, as well as banana and wave-runner rentals.

Modern, ultrachic Baikal is the place to see and be seen. The dining room has a white-on-white color scheme and 12-foot-high windows that frame the sparkling bay; sea-theme short films are shown from time to time on drop-down movie screens. The menu is small but select, with dishes that fuse French, Asian, and Mexican preparations and ingredients. Try the cold cream of cucumber soup spiced with mint and mild jalapeño; the sliced abalone with a chipotle (dried, smoked chilies) vinaigrette is also a good bet. Soft bossa nova and jazz play in the background.

This link in the international Hard Rock chain is one of Acapulco's most popular spots, among locals as well as visitors. The New York–cut steaks, hamburgers, and brownies, as well as the Southern-style fried chicken and ribs are familiar and satisfying. Taped rock music begins at noon, and a live group starts playing at 10 pm on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.

The locals rave about Julio's, where they know they'll get a great variety of fresh seafood at an affordable price. There is nothing fancy here except the fresh authentic Mexican dishes served by friendly folks. Try the shrimp tacos or the barbecued whole fish, preceded by a large seafood cocktail. A fish fillet dinner costs just under $7. Most tourists haven't found this place yet, so for a great cultural and dining experience that won't empty your wallet, this is the place.

A line often goes out the door at this popular seafood restaurant on the second floor of El Tropicano Hotel. If you get a table by the window, you'll have views of the bustling Costera below. Most dishes, including the popular filete habañero (tilapia bathed in a creamy chili sauce), come accompanied with beans or rice and handmade tortillas.

All tables at this elegant restaurant have views of the bay, and the dishes and flatware were created by Taxco silversmiths. In the bar-reception area, groovy glass coffee tables rest on carved wooden animals. Dinner is a four-course, prix-fixe meal, and there are 15 menus from which to choose. Specialties include tasty chilled soups and red snapper baked in sea salt (a Spanish dish); there are also steak choices, lobster tail, chicken, and pork.

On a wharf that juts out into Bahía de Puerto Marqués, this casual open-air dining spot has wooden floors and a dramatic roof that simulates a huge white sail. It's particularly atmospheric after dark, when the lights of Puerto Marqués flicker in the distance. There are several fish and shellfish dishes on the menu, but the specialty is the red snapper à la talla.
