Fodor's Review:
When was the last time you enjoyed a plate of stingray in black butter sauce? This unimposing restaurant encases the heart of Zihuatenejo's most deliciously inventive cuisine. Owner-chef Ricardo Rodriguez, who worked in Paris before returning to Mexico and the upscale kitchen of La Casa Que Canta hotel, has had his own place for 10 years now -- 7 in this spot overlooking Bahía Zihuatenejo -- where he applies deft Mexican and Mediterranean touches to seafood dishes in a beachcomber atmosphere. The melt-in-your-mouth abalone and exquisite grilled mahimahi under a sweet, spicy pineapple sauce are popular choices, but the house specialty remains patata rellena -- potatoes stuffed with shrimp and lobster in a fresh basil-and-garlic sauce.
