Fodor's Expert Review El Huachinango Feliz

The location of this two-level restaurant, just next door to the Hotel Xibalba, has made it a favorite with tourists, but locals frequent the place, too. The plates are big, and the food is varied and delicious. The freshness of the seafood is a big part of what makes dishes like the chilpachole de mariscos (a slightly spicy tomato-based seafood soup) delicious. The filete de pescado (a shrimp-stuffed fillet of fish baked in a banana leaf) is another delicious option.
