Most Popular Mexican food in Manzanillo, Colima, Mexico
Reviews on Mexican food in Manzanillo, Colima, Mexico. Magical, historic, cultural, intimate – these are but a few of the words that best describe the balmy and magical escape that is Manzanillo on the Pacific Coast of Mexico. A lush, tropical environment welcomes travelers – verdant hillsides make way for sandy beaches, a setting that just begs for outdoor adventures and lazy days by the ocean. Visit between December and April and you’re likely to glimpse one of the playful whales swimming in Manzanillo Bay. By night, the village is full of energetic nightlife and restaurants are full to the brim. It’s all the charm of old world Mexico with every 21-century creature comforts you could want. While the crashing Pacific surf is sure to capture your attention for much of your time in Manzanillo, be sure to check out the countless other outdoor pursuits. Take an ATV off-road adventure, go deep-sea or sportfishing, head out hiking on an eco tour or take to the sea by kayak. Go sailing, snorkeling, SCUBA diving and surfing, then head back to shore for some shopping. Lace up your tennies for a volcano or waterfall tour.

This small restaurant under an open-air palapa is on the same property as Palma Real Hotel. I've been eating there for many years and it is consistently excellent (I own a vacation home nearby).

Our favorite time to head to the La Boquita Beach and it's Ramadas is Sunday afternoon. The beaches can get crowded with all the families, but that is the fun of it. Lots to do.....swimming, horseback riding, Banana rides, paddle boarding, etc.El Rey is our favorite restaurant......the food is wonderful and the beer is cold. The Margaritas are also great! We love the red snapper and also the BBQ oysters. A great place for the whole family!

8. Taqueria Don Julio

Locals regard Taqueria Don Julio as the best eatery in town, and they've got good reason. This open-air restaurant serves up some of the tastiest tacos we've ever eaten, fast and hot from a comal where the cooks work non-stop. There isn't a bad choice on the menu, but those with adventurous palettes should go straight to the camaron chipotludo, savory spicy shrimp served on a bed of tender nopales (cactus leaves). Every order comes with a table-sized arsenal of condiments, spices and hot sauce. This is the kind of place you could eat every day and never grow bored. You certainly won't go away hungry.

Nice corner location in Centro with views to the waterfront park, the bay, with good people watching. Menus provided in English but none spoken. Started with stiff margaritas ($72 P each). Ordered two Chicken Salads ( Ensalada de Vedura) and a Torta de Milanesa (Chicken Sandwich). Good sizes and tasty. The restaurant offers free Wi-Fi with Apple device compatibility to add additional devices off the same password. Service good, washroom OK with wash basin outside.
6. Tacos La Sonrisa

Reviewed By KayClifton
Came here around 7pm or so and the place was pretty much empty. We found it interesting that the "busy" times were listed as late night. So... La Sonrisa is the late night, drunk food go-to in Manzanillo, then?We ordered some tacos and the helpful ladies distinguished the various types of meat and how they came cut (sliced, shredded, ground, chunks) to us. After we ordered, all the condiments came out and there were tons. The individual bowls of condiments looked decent but the large salsa caddy looked like it'd seen better days. Food came and we dressed our tacos. With all of the condiments, we got the tacos we'd been looking for. We were satisfied, but overall, I'd say La Sonrisa was an average food experience. Going back to the drunk food concept, I could see how La Sonrisa would rate higher with the nostalgia factor.

This place is not on the tourist route- probably wouldnât have found it without the gps. We went for lunch and were practically the only ones there.The restaurant is bright and cheery, very Mexican,has a pretty large menu. There were 5 of us so we had a variety. One person had tihe bacon wrapped, stuffed shrimp and it was a huge amount - likely should have ordered a half portion. They were delicious but very rich.Another person spoke to someone from the kichen as he wanted oysters- breaded. He got them and enjoyed them. My husband had shrimp quesadillas which were just average, I had the coconut shrimp plate with rice arranged in a flower pattern and coleslaw,my friend had the ceviche was was very nice.Our waitress spoke no English but brought someone out from the kichen when we tried to explain about the breaded oysters. He was friendly and enthusiastic.Before we left more people had filtered in- mostly Mexican folk. The people near us had huge bowls of broth with succulent shrimp in them - something I would order if I get the chance to return.This is an industrial area so large trucks noisily rumbled by but that sort of added to the experience. Would I go back? Probably, as that broth looked so good.There are so many restaurants to try- hard to try them all!

This trip I was there more briefly to see family, without my husband this time, and only made it to Oasis once. The food is still excellent! And I really enjoyed the music the evening we went. This is the best and my favorite in Manzanillo.
