We have been to Zihua several times but have never ventured to Barra. This year we are going to split our stay between the two. In Barra we plan to leave the groceries on the shelf and dine out for lunch and supper. So nice to Know there are great places to to eat. Rob's board is the best!

Yes, dona Emi's is my favorite "downtown" but I'm sure the others are good. Just walk down the street and sit down anyplace there are a few tables and chairs.

La Condesa, Nayito's & Teresita are the most popular ones; but it's true that they are all pretty good.

Does anybody have the latest on how La Condesa and Nayito's are coming along with their repairs of the damages done by the beach erosion ? I heard they were going to reclaim some of their parking lot to make up for ground lost to the waves.

I was there Sunday and they are open and going strong. Repairs finished. Neither that I could tell changed anything in the parking area. Different for sure but great good none the less.

Gracias LM. Nice to hear Pancho & the gang are full throttle.

They would be that if things were bad. Great attitude in the face of almost impossible odds.

I've always liked to eat at one of "main street" eateries, after 6 PM--where the locals eat.

Here is my take:
The first one, on the North end, is La Codnessa. Been there a long time.
Next is Nayitos, he is brother to owner of La Condessa. The up and coming place over the past few years. Actually now run by Nayitos family.
Next is Terista(????). Karaoke here.
Then a vacant lot that leads to the bach.

Then Netos. My favorite. A little more laid back. Owned and operated by daughter and grandson of owner of La Condessa owner and neice/grand nephew of Nayito.

All are great, I just prefer Neto's, the honcho is Mirna.

As I understand it, these families all started after the tidal wave of '85(??). Nahito and La Condessa father was "big" landowner in La Barra.

Anyone welcome to comment and I am sure some will!

There are an abundance of tiendas as you come into the village. Take a walk up and down the streets and observe. This remains a "dong, kids, roosters and dirt street" native town and I mean this as a compliment.
