Skip the overpriced port for the real thing

[lacruiser]

If you’re looking for authentic, imaginative fabulous food, leave the overpriced, tourist port for a taxi to Mahahual and go to La Chilangoense! Don’t be put off by the unassuming exterior. There are (surprisingly comfortable) tables and chairs by the water, and the food is amazing. For what we paid at the port palapa restaurant for a Mexican beer, small margarita and an order of guacamole we got a delicious, huge mango margarita, beer, a La Repetida tostada (fresh marinated tuna with various crispy veggies,) a marlin taco and a Taco Macho, plus complimentary chips and a bean dip to die for. Jackie, the very personable owner will take great care of you. Lots of beach vendors, all of whom were very polite, took our first “no, gracias” and wished us a good day. Altogether a great experience!

Thanks for review. We were considering it for one our upcoming visits as they seem to do cooking and salsa classes.
