Apapacho - lonely little hut on the beach in front of Parayso

The night we visited Apapacho, it was empty although a group followed us carrying their own wine. For some reason, Apapacho was not serving any alcohol. When we inquired, they only divulged that they were having problems with the alcohol. Maybe they have an alcoholic cook who drank everything but we think the fiscales were there earlier in the week. Other favorite watering holes were closed as well.

They have a full menu with entres ranging from 95 – 150 pesos, appetizers from 65-95, and ceviche is 120 pesos. They make a point of telling you they are closed Mondays on a big black board that looked like it needed a “special” but that only said the hours. Service was sloooooow. It took us an hour to get our meal but once it came the waiter was very fast on returning with the mustard. Granted they had only one waiter but …at least say something. We were left to sit and wonder as people who arrived after us were served their meal. The waiter told us they had called it in earlier in the day. Does that tell you something?

One piggy had the hamburger and it was great if you like onions blended into your hamburger – that little piggy didn’t - with fries that came cold and don’t stand up to Ocho or Tita’s. Another piggy ordered fish tacos. This piggy’s recommendation: forget them – go to town and get tastier and more authentic tacos for 30 pesos instead of 100.
And another pig had the grilled tuna. She was one happy pig when she got it. It was a nicely grilled piece of fish served with rice and sliced tomatoes. But the rice had a taste as if it had been made the day before, or the day before that. Overall, this is a hamburger joint. The guineapigs recommend you go during the day and once they square their liquor license away so you can enjoy the wait with a cold drink and people watch while escaping the afternoon sun. Guineapigs give it one pig – the burger saved it, the staff could have but they didn’t even try.
