Fodor's Expert Review La Ola

With a calm beachside atmosphere, fresh seafood, and attentive service, it's hard to top this local favorite at the west end of Playa Agustinillo. Begin your afternoon by settling into one of the comfy loungers, where you can sip on a La Ola cocktail, a mojito of mezcal, cucumber, and lime that tastes as healthy as it is delicious. Good options for lunch are dorado tostados or arrachera (grilled steak) served with a perfect trio of black beans, tortillas, and rice. There's also a wide selection of ultrafresh salads. You'll appreciate the spiffy clean washrooms, showers, and prime views of bodyboarders riding and wiping out on the waves.
