I saw this thread pop up and wanted to give an update to what I had asked.
Frank, we loved Mazatlan. I thought it was beautiful!
We took your advice and went to Tonys, or so we tried. Since we werent too familiar with where we were going we ended up walking thorugh the little alley way to get to the beach area and we were descended upon by 2 waiters. They were like vultures, rattling off menus and both pushing at us. What we later realized was one was from Tonys and the other was from Chilis Pepper next door and they both wanted our business.
The guy from Chilis Pepper ended up getting us to go to their side. I guess he was more pushy, LOL! At any rate, they had great Margaritas, werent too pushy with the drinks, once we were seated at their table on the beach, and for a beach restaurant's restroom it was pretty decent (that was a concern of mine, not having a restroom for all of us).
The view there with the mountains in the back was gorgeous and the water was great. I'm one of those people who is usually grossed out by whats in the ocean and wont go in over my ankles, but I was in waist deep here having a ball with the kids in the waves. the only reason I got out was because I landed on a big rock and bruised the arch of my foot(the massage therapist noticed the bruise the next day, LOL).
If I were to go back to Mazatlan, I would definitely go back to this area again, and try to get to Tonys next time.
