Regional Mexican food from land and sea
The chefs at Lake Picachos have the regional touch of Mexican Pacific food. We recommend the ceviches, the shrimp party where you will taste shrimp of all kinds a la diabla, for snacks, breaded in aguachile, among others. For carnivores, there are good cuts of grilled meat and for gourmets, there is a very good buttered lobster.
