Restaurante Don Camarón

Restaurante Don Camarón sits on Playa Majahua near Puerto Marqués, a sheltered bay east of Acapulco in Guerrero, Mexico, known for calmer water than the main Acapulco beaches. The kitchen specializes in grilled whole fish and shrimp, with pescado a la talla, camarones a la diabla (shrimp in a spicy red sauce), and ceviche de camarón among its signature dishes. Seating is under an open-air palapa roof just steps from the sand, with plastic tables and chairs and a relaxed, unhurried pace typical of Puerto Marqués beach clubs. There is no formal beverage program beyond beer, micheladas, and simple fruit-based cocktails served cold through the afternoon. Reservations are not used; the restaurant fills with day-trippers around midday, so arriving earlier in the morning or later in the afternoon means a quieter table and faster service.
