La Catrina Restaurant & Gallery

La Catrina Restaurant & Gallery is open, with the same owner (Jorge) and at the same location.

La Catrina Restaurant prides ourselves on our excellent cuisine and our customer service. Come in and give us a try.

We are located on the main street Tetakawi Blvd at KM 7. As you are driving out of town, we are on the left side of the street (non-beach side). Drive until you get to the San Carlos sign, and turn at the roundabout back towards town. Look for our large and colorful Catrina mural to find our restaurant.

We have the freshest seafood in town. Feast on one of our many delicious Shrimp meals — breaded, garlic, coconut, mango, rancheros, or try a sampling with the Shrimp Carousel — all meals are accompanied with rice and salad. If you’re in the mood for fish, select from 5 fish fillet options, including our popular grilled stuffed fillet with crab and shrimp.

For starters, try our stuffed peppers with marlin or shrimp; our tacos, quesadillas, or a Seafood Cocktail, with a mix of fresh and cooked shrimp, clam, octopus, conch, oyster, scallop, red onion, tomato, cucumber and shrimp broth. And you must order our famous Molcajetes — you choose either a hot or cold option, filled with a delectable assortment of seafood. Another popular starter is the Tuna Blueberries Tostada, a mix of fresh tuna, blueberries, avocado, red onion, and cilantro.

Find your new favorite Ceviche dish at La Catrina. With refreshing combinations of shrimp, fish, scallop, octopus, citrus and spices, we’ve got several options for you. And if you are looking for something with a little more heat, then try an Aguachiles dish instead. Aguachiles are a Mexican version of ceviche where the marinades are hotter and spicier and the ingredients aren’t marinated as long as traditional ceviche.

Not in the mood for fish? We have Creamy Green Chicken Enchiladas, hamburgers, and often the Daily Specials include Surf and Turf, with a delectable cut of beef.

We serve a breakfast buffet on Saturdays and Sundays from 8:30 to noon. Come and try all your favorites, including omelets, chilaquiles, French toast, hot cakes, bacon and more.

We have both indoor and outdoor seating — with several heaters to make eating outdoors comfortable during the winter months, and air-conditioners inside for the summer months. With seating for 40 people inside and another 40 outside, we are able to take care of your party, whether large or small. We are licensed and carry an assortment of beers, wine, spirits, and cocktails. Having a posada….let us cater your event!
