Paletas Restaurant Bar & Grill — Restaurant in Baja California Sur

This is a family run business by Louis and his wife the Chef.

What a treat to find this gem of a place.

We just came upon it because there was a sign on the main road directing us.

I found this place just off the main road and they managed not be make it too “touristy”, while maintaining a welcoming and local flair. The decor and ambience had a very traditional feel to it in spite of the western music playing in the background. The kitchen is discreet, yet visible to the patrons. This is a huge deciding factor for me when choosing a restaurant. I like to take a quick peek into their kitchen to see how they maintain it. In keeping with the rest of the restaurant it was clean and tidy. We ordered nachos and margaritas for starters and went with Louis’ recommendation for dinner.

Decorations and style of this place are well thought out and perfect! See you on my next stay...

We went there after a couple recommendations on Food from friends. We live here full-time. We arrived and the owner told us that the beautiful seating up on the second floor that looks over the ocean is closed unless you made a reservation eight hours prior.
