Angustina Mezcal & Cocina — Restaurant in Guerrero

We came here after seeing photos of an intriguing menu and excellent dishes, and now we are going to contribute the same in this review. The restaurant opened at 15:00 and we were there anticipating this as our choice for an early supper (or late lunch). We were seated in slightly uncomfortable chairs, but when asked, the manager moved a large fan closer to us so we could cool down from a hot walk around town. The table was clean and the waiter placed nice paper place mats down as we were served our first drinks. We started with water and coke but upgraded to cocktails later. All the drinks were tasty and the cocktails were among the nicest we've had in Zihua. For a shared appetizer we had the Nejitas - three warm folded tortillas with a filling of huitlacoche (corn smut) and with the best guacamole we've ever had and a couple of delicious salsas! After eating the Nejitas, the waiter offered fried yucca and sweet potato chips so we could finish the salsas off. For our mains, we order the Chamorro (pork loin, perfectly roasted with a nice crunchy skin) and the Tuna Chepinita! We had no room for dessert but really wanted to try the three types of churros. Our waiter was polite, attentive and gracious. She spoke no English, which we found refreshing and we enjoyed practicing our Spanish (por ahora = a few more minutes).

My girlfriend had been meaning to come here for 8 years. Definitely late than never! We also were recommended by Eat Bella Travel from Youtube. We share everything. We started with the Envuelto de Requeson and the house Mezcal. The cheese was very rich. Mezcal was incredible. Finished with our main course, Atun Chepinita. The tuna was perfectly cooked. Our only criticism would be that the delicious plum compote overwhelmed everything. It took on the flavour all the parts. Still very tasty. Great ambiance and great for people watching right in the malecon. Lastly, the service was very good. Our server was exceptional and loved the smiles. We can't wait to come back to Zihua next April. Look forward to trying new dishes at...

We love this place! Delicious food and drinks that are fresh, imaginative and skillfully prepared. The grilled mahi-mahi and the burgers are the best in town. The mezcal based cocktails are a good way to explore the unique flavors of mezcal. This is my favorite restaurant in Z.

Just had dinner a forth time, after two years away. Better than ever! Had a trio of seafood - shrimp, mahi-mahi, and octopus - grilled perfectly, with a layering of mash, grilled onions, grilled zucchini, roasted tomatoes,... Superb. Had to go back to the kitchen and thank the chef. A super friendly happy man that knows how to reimagine classic dishes, and take them to a higher level....
