Los delfines

We wanted to go to a restaurant on the water for lunch. We were there for the view, looking forward to dinner at another highly rated restaurant. This turned out to be our best meal in Campeche! My husband ordered the coconut shrimp and I ordered the tropical shrimp, which was basically coconut shrimp in a pineapple with lots of fruit. My husband loves coconut shrimp, I on the other hand will eat them, but not usually my favorite. These were the best that either of us ever had! I think they have ruined us for having them anywhere else. We have been telling everyone how much we loved Campeche and especially this restaurant.

This Restaurant, LOS DELFINES, is located right in front of Campeche Bay. The food is fresh at an affordable price end excelent quality. Seafood is great abd the service is fantastic. They offer free round trip transportation.

Six of us decided to give Los Delfines a try for dinner. We arrived just 5 minutes before sunset, which was spectacular! We were quickly seated at two tables right on the malecon and to our surprise we were the only folks there at 6:15pm. Our waiter quickly took our drink orders and then proceeded to bring out 5-6 free appetizers, which we consumed with gusto. Then came the announcement that the chefs closed the kitchen at 7pm (it was aThursday evening) since they were primarily a lunch place. We looked over the menu and as it would happen, we all ordered something different. My wife had the Shrimp Tropical which was incredible. A couple others had the fresh fish cooked in different ways, one had a gluten free serving and someone else had shrimp, grilled with garlic and butter. That left me and I ordered up the crab claws. The waiter looked at me and asked if I wanted this myself. I said absolutely! When the food was served I realized that a single order would easily feed two or even three people! Since there were no sides we dug in. I poached a couple of my wife's Tropical shrimp in exchange for a crab claw and gave one other claw to my good friend Juan. We all agreed that we had just had one of the best and freshest seafood dinners we had eaten in a long time. We had excellent service and the atmosphere was perfect; we were the only guests and had a great view looking over the Bay of Campheche. When we asked the waiter if he could call us a couple of taxis, he responded with an offer that he would do better, they had a van to take us back to the hotel! We climbed in and had an easy ride back to our hotel! Five stars for everything!

Three of us ate last night against a pink/b!ue/orange sky as the sun set over the harbor. We all ordered shrimp dishes and were stunned by the size and number we each got. As you can see from pictures of other reviewers the offering were big, delicious and beautifully presented. Very attentive service.

Charming, inexpensive, has the dark beer I love, and good seafood. I had the Covina fileted and rolled in coconut. It was served with half a coconut filled with a delicious sweet applesauce. I was the only tourist there in a big palapa filled with Mexican families enjoying a seafood meal. They even have a menu in English. The crab claws translated to Hands of the Crab, but, hey, I knew what they meant. Clean bathrooms and nice music not blasting in your ears.
