La Palapa Griega

Get off the beaten path and enjoy dining with an awesome view. The creative menu blends the best of Greek and Mexican cuisine.

The food was amazing both times we visited. Drinks were good. The staff was very welcoming, friendly and attentive. There was live music in the evening that was fun to listen to and not loud enough to cause a problem if you were trying to talk to each other. We will definitely stop and n whenever we are in town.

My favorite place! Wonderful food, fair prices, friendly and helpful staff.

We enjoyed our meal so much! My husband had the calamari and a Caesar salad (presented quite uniquely) and I had the “Betty special” -prepared stuffed fish (flounder with shrimp and spinach) with sides of broccoli and potatoes. Yummmmmmm! The service was wonderful and the restaurant itself is lucky enough to enjoy a beachside locale so you are right in the water. I had a margarita (the special drink of the night) and it came in a small plastic cup which I immediately had negative thoughts on … until I tasted it and then I sipped it throughout my meal as it was delightfully one of the best (and strongest) margaritas I have had in a long time! As we were leaving, the management informed us, after finding out that we had been fishing for the last couple of days in our boat, that we could bring in any of our fish and they would cook it up for us in any way we liked. Next time, we will try that as the stuffed flounder was amazing tonight!!

The best San Carlos dining experience on the beach, bar none. Authentic Greek food. Gyro special on Tuesdays, gyro salad, beet salad, appetizer combination, spaghetti with clams, and the best crab tostadas anywhere. Their tzatziki sauce is the best. And the coldest beer and great margaritas, as well as other cocktails. I noticed some reviews note a lack of salt/'spices' (I appreciate this, actually) but their authentic spices like oregano and lemon juice/slices are authentic and if you want 'spicy' a salsa cart with no less than 6-7 types of hot sauce (along with S&P) are on every table. Come for the food, service (always courteous and professional), the ambiance, and music is most days between 5-8 pm, Sunday from 3-6; if you want to sit under the palapa, out of the wind, sit inside. La Palapa Griega remains my go to destination restaurant experience in San Carlos. Don't charge a thing! One last thing: someone mentioned recently being 'disappointed' that their queasy friend wasn't served food (fruit) that wasn't on the menu, so they disregarded the prominent signage and brought in a watermelon to their table. Yikes! I don't think that would be acceptable behavior at any restaurant, with or without signs posted. (See pictures: Hard to see how they missed the sign!) And in closing, If they allowed coolers and outside food/drinks/alcohol, it would soon destroy the ambiance as well as the beach as part of the restaurant's business. Don't ask for exceptions! Thank you to the staff of LaPalapa for standing firm in enforcing your policy. Thanks to the staff for their attentive, courteous and friendly service! See you this weekend !

Fun place! Both inside and outside dining, with live music many nights. The food is good and the service is excellent. Manager Daniel is the Best- after a visit, he was kind to arrange a taxi to pick us up from our hotel to bring us back to enjoy music, the sunset, and dinner. A very enjoyable experience in San Carlos.

Great place to eat and relax with an ocean view in San Carlos Mx! Everyone is so nice and the owner greets and services all his costumers.
