Le Zebra certainly know how to take care of their guests. Always with a smile, Lina's home cooking is the best Mexico has to offer. Don't expect Mexican prices, you will pay London prices for food as you are on the beach front. Great place for a wedding.

Just great, authentic Mexican food. We hear their Sunday night salsa party is also great, although we've never made it there. If you are looking to eat on the beach side, La Zebra is one of the best spots. Highly recommended.

We stumbled into this cute little place while wlaking along the beach. Super friendly staff, great fresh straight forward Mexican cuisine, and amazing Margaritas!! We also loved the guacamole, which they make at your table. Make sure to ask for sides of hot sauces/salsas that they will bring upon request. They are excellent for adding a little kick to your...

We stayed at La Zebra and didn't feel like we need to eat anywhere else but here because it was so delicious and the service is fantastic and the view and breeze is wonderful. Enjoy!

This place was a find. We had both good and bad luck with restaurants on our trip. This one was good. Nice atmosphere. Friendly service. And, good food. The chicken tortilla soup was particularly tasty.

Fantastic ceviche, great service, right on the sand! The menu had a nice assortment of local favorites and I had the best papaya margarita.

The food is great, we had fish tacos, fish sandwiches-great bread, etc... The cocktails aree fantastic too. However, the best part is the setting.

What a wonderful setting - virtually unbeatable. The beach there is stunning and a bar with tables on the beach is perfect to have a sundowner. The drinks are good with quite a few cocktails and a large tequila list - pretty dangerous!!! The food menu is not huge but there is a good selection. The food is ok/cent but... More

We stopped at Lina's at La Zebra for lunch. I had chicken tacos and my husband had a barbeque pork sandwich, and we shared some guacamole. The food was great, as was the service. I actually originally ordered fish tacos and the waiter came back and told me they didn't have any fresh fish and they didn't want to serve... More

Stopped in for dinner on a Thursday night, intending for this to be an amazing meal (per the suggestion of some friends). We had great cocktails (the chili margarita is standout) and decided to get their special queso fundido meal for two. Our waiter recommended it over everything else on the menu - it came with fresh tortillas, and 14... More
