Restaurante El Dorado (Playa de Salinas)

17° 57.8′ N · 66° 17.7′ W

A seafood and criollo restaurant on Calle Marlín that fishes its own catch from a 36-ft boat: cartucho, peto, mero cabrilla and other fish of the day, plus mofongo with shrimp and seafood broth.

Practical

Position from OpenStreetMap (node 11012996300), a short walk inland of Marina de Salinas. Per the restaurant's website: G4 Calle Marlín, open Monday to Sunday 11am to 8pm, phone (787) 824-4455. Ask what came in that day: the site lists cartucho, raya, peto, peje puerco and mero cabrilla among the usual catches. Closes earlier than most of the waterfront, so go for lunch or an early dinner.

Best for

Fresh local fish for lunch, close to the marina
