Seafood restaurants in Nicaragua

  1. A

    El Timón

    This excellent beach restaurant is the place to go for a more upmarket seafood dinner, with professional service and delicious seafood; the pulpo al vapor (steamed octopus with a tasty garlicky sauce) is highly recommended.

  2. Restaurant Buen Gusto

    There are several charming, thatched-roof restaurants lining the beach, all with spectacular sunsets, full bars and solid seafood. One of the best is Restaurant Buen Gusto, where you'll want everything in the garlic sauce.

  3. Los Pescaditos

    This Subtiava landmark, close to the Poneloya buses, may look like a modest, unassuming, moderately priced seafood restaurant, but it's famous throughout the country as the best place to eat in León.

  4. Restaurante Frutti D'Mare

    There are probably a dozen restaurants in this area, most of the 'fried fish and cold beer' variety, but the standout is Restaurante Frutti D'Mare, with Italian-style seafood and a good wine list.

  5. La Loma

    Across from BICU on a hill overlooking the city, this thatch-roofed, open-air restaurant is known for its lobster and shrimp almost as much as the party scene it becomes after dark (20:00 or so).

  6. Bella Vista

    Overlooking the waves at the south end of town, this joint is one of the best spots for shrimp, done your way, in town. And what a view.

    One block south of Parque Reyes, this is the swankiest date night in town, specializing in lobster cocktails and great service.
