Bandidos de Zihua

There's salsa, Cuban, or romantic music at Bandidos from Tuesday through Saturday (in low season call to confirm the schedule). It's smack in the middle of downtown and almost as popular with locals as with travelers—both foreign and domestic. In the afternoon and early evening you can get drinks, snacks, and full meals at the bar and outdoor patio. The TV is usually tuned to sports, though the volume is turned way down.
