We keep returning to La Cueva de Leon for its generous and well made green salad. Never watery, it allows us to savor the fresh taste of the vegetables and vinaigrette sauce.

We were looking for a place to eat near old town Mazatlan when we ran into a volunteer tourist adviser. Looked like a retired gentleman from the US who lives part of the year in Mexico.

Location is fantastic, right across the street from the beach. The food is average, the prices are right, and several Americans and Canadians can be found every day having a bite to eat.
Great shrimp, but cold vegetables. Ho hum service. Indoor and outdoor seating. Nice view of the ocean.

If you walk to the old beach front, stop at this place for lunch. Good value and service. Well prepared food. Fair pricing.

We ate lunch here and the restaurant was directly across the street from the ocean. Recommend the Cobb salad and Arrachera (skirt steak). Only issue with eating outside was the noise from the vehicles.
