Zaashila - Chez Binni - Elegant presentation of food, best service, best ambiance and priced accordingly. We also like the Beach Club and La Bella Grill at Zaashila for more casual meals during the day.

Santa Cruz Bay - Many beach seafood restaurants. We haven't found a favorite or bad one yet. They all have similar menus and prices and fresh seafood. Pick one you like.

Mision Fa-Sol

El Sabor de Oaxaca - at the Las Palmas Hotel (across from the Market). Higher priced, clean and good food. Waiters speak English. There are many selections on the menu.

"Bargain lunch, try the Comida Corrida at El Sabor de Oaxaca or Hotel Grifer. Usually served from 1 to 3 p.m. For $3 to $5 you get soup of the day, rice, choice one of two entrees, and the fruit water of the day."

The Barcelo Hotel has an Mexican Night-Buffet and folk Loric Show and a Buffet and Show called LLuvia de Las Estrellas (Parade of Stars Impersonations of Celebrities) and a Tropical Caribbean Buffet and Show. (We paid 200 pesos per person which included the buffet and national drinks, soft drinks, tax and tip.) We thought it was an excellent value! For schedule ....call Barcelo at 9-58-10055.
