The Leaky Palapa
The Leaky Palapa Review
Nobody expected the kind of sophisticated flavors that the Leaky Palapa brought to town, but this little 11-table palapa restaurant is done up in twinkling lights and has quickly become the place to meet, enjoy a beer, and eat like kings. Feast on lobster bisque or the seared shrimp on bean cakes with tamarind salsa. Homemade pasta isn't the first thing you think of when you think tropical beach, but the ravoli with corn truffle will convince you. The menu changes weekly depending on what local fisherman bring to the dock. Canadian owners Linda and Marla believe in using local ingredients as much as possible. Opening hours (and months) vary so check their website before arrival.
