    La Isla

    With its over-the-top seashell-encrusted interior, this place serves some of the best seafood in San Blas. Indulge yourself with one of the platillos especiales, a mix of shrimp, octopus and fresh fish cooked however you like it, and accompanied by rice, salad and fried banana. La Isla’s sister eatery on Playa El Borrego – Caballito del Mar – serves a similar menu.

    Casa del Canibal

    Beloved among the town's expat population, this friendly eatery does a dynamite shrimp scampi, a rich beef stroganoff and a perfectly cooked steak. The garrulous owner is a true foodie and it shows. It also offers sumptuously catered four- to six-hour personalized tours including 'secret beach parties,' waterfall hikes, horseback riding, and mountain zip-line tours.
