“ El Pescador and Fortino's are now the SAME restaurant (Google maps shows them as 2 different ones, so we were confused). Beautiful location right on the water, clean tablecloths, perfectly-raked sand, delightful service and the best food we have had in Malque or Barra. We had a variety of sushis and the Oriental Ribs. VERY cold beer. Reasonable prices! Delicious! ”
