EAT IN LA CRUZ

La Cruz is filled with many incredible restaurants all within walking distance of Casa Bella Cruz. Here are some of our favorites!

 

Casa Bella Cruz’s next door neighbors! Day or night, these are great spots to grab a bite to eat in an energetic local environment right in the town square. Cafe Shulel is the sister restaurant of Ballana Blanca, open in the mornings serving amazing coffee and breakfast. For lunch and dinner, Ballena Blanca is the place to be, brimming with local expats and occasional live music. We love their margaritas and seafood burritos!

The BEST Ribeye Steak Tacos in all of Mexico (a bold statement, but trust us) They keep it simple with only the ribeye and your choice of corn or four tortilla. Cheese or no cheese. That’s it. Beer, amazing margaritas, and flan or cheesecake for dessert. Must try!

*cash only, closed Monday & Tuesday, open 5:00 pm

Incredible food and location, located in the middle of the marina. Talk about a sunset view! Our go to order: shrimp ceviche, steak & bone marrow tacos, grilled octopus and whole fried red snapper. But honestly, everything on the menu is amazing.
