About Us

La Negra started as a small alternative project, after we had closed (and not because we wanted) our firs business by the beach, in which we had invested all our energy. We were broken, yet full of ideas and motivation.

We were fascinated with the vibe of the town and the charm of the tree house. We moved to our new home with our oldest daughter and our loyal Great Dane (to whom we owe the name) and started again; people were incredibly supporting, we loved what we do and soon we were enough inspired to add a new member to the family. Our little baby came with a big wave of improvements to our life project and to the place, that little by little, have resulted into the rooftop, two bars, bathrooms and a kitchen worthy of our guests.

We have to thank all the good souls who have joined this madness during all these years, and of course to our team that makes us strong always able to learn, serve and share smiles. Thanks for enjoying with us!

What really matters...

Made with Love

At La Negra we prepare each dish taking the maximum care of the freshness, as well as the quality of the ingredients, supporting local businesses and producers. We try to own every process and make it as home as possible; with the purpose or providing you with food that truly nourish your body and soul.

Music for the Soul

Music brought us here and put us together as a family; that’s how important music is at La Negra. We choose carefully special world music sounds that our visitors can enjoy and remember. There will always be someone in charge of the music, to play some nice tunes that feed the soul and from time to time, motivate a good dance.

To share or not to share...

Our home-made potato wedges have earned the place among the favorites. The Guacamole is always a popular thing, but you can also choose our baked Panela, served with handmade tortillas, topped with mushrooms or rib eye; Or some comfort grilled vegetables with homemade hummus… We all also know that the fresh seafood is never left behind when choosing to serve at the center of the table.

Shrimp aguachile or tuna ceviche with cilantro and serrano pepper, served over 2 fried tacos. Plus, you can always order and extra fried taquito, so no one leaves without trying them…
Tuna Sashimi with cucumbers and wasabi sprouts
Soft octopus carpaccio, with cherry tomatoes and parsley.
And the novelty is a classic “Tiradito” with its respective “Tiger’s Milk” but with a creamy and spicy touch.

In Tacos We Trust

Our tacos have shown they are a really good option at dinner time, because you can try one by one, like something to start with, or make them a whole meal.

Fresh 100% corn tortilla made at the moment (gluten free) is the key, with catch of the day, duck confit, octopus in red pepper sauce, tuna chunks, shrimp quesadilla or our famous “Taco Macho”, a jalapeño stuffed with shrimp, cheese and wrapped in bacon. Try also the popular ones among carnivores: pork belly & rib eye.

Sourdough Pizza

You can find pizza almost everywhere, that’s why we put extra effort on doing them special, with the freshest and best quality ingredients, made with sourdough and baked in wood fired oven. We also make a chimichurri that we let marinate for weeks so you can add them an extra-punch of flavor.

We have a wide variety of combinations, from the most simple with home made tomato sauce and cheese, to pesto with green apple, goat cheese and pecans. Take a good look at the menu and choose your favorite!

Soups

· The Clam Chowder made with potato base (flour free), diced vegetables, bacon and clams. A parmesan crisp, fresh parsley and croutons accompany it.

· The red, hot and spicy “Fisherman’s Soup”, with shrimp and octopus, served with diced onion, cilantro and lime.

A Light Dinner

Salads don’t have to be boring, in La Negra we prepare them as you want, choosing a variety of fresh vegetables, seeds and fruits; you can also add soft shell crab, a tuna steak, grilled portobello or sauteed shrimp.

The Popular Ones: Burgers

Since the beginning we learned how to bake the proper bun and we care that each one have their own personality. They are always sided with potato wedges and chipotle & alioli dressings.

If you don’t want to go out of the classic, choose the beef “Royal Burger”, always made with the freshest home- grounded meat; but if you feel more adventurous, try our “Soft Shell Crab Sandwich” with tartar sauce. We also have the Lamb, Tuna Steak, Cheesy Shrimp, or Portobello for our vegetarian friends.

From Our Bar

Cocktails from the Earth

In our Bar you will always find creative and authentic drinks. We use only100% natural fresh squeezed juices, home-made non refined sugar & fruit syrups, and artisanal distillates for our cocktails, which have been evolving trying to adapt to the current techniques, but always respecting the ancestral knowledge.

We focus on offering beverages that keep you hydrated and facilitate digestion; such as kombucha, ginger beer, infusions and of course craft beer; avoiding soft drinks and products with chemicals & preservatives as much as possible. We have also developed a non-alcoholic cocktail menu for the whole family to enjoy.

The house’s recommendation will always be to opt for Mexican wines and spirits, as you will find mezcals, raicilla, gin, vodka and even whiskey from local producers, rich in aromas, textures and flavors.

And to accompany your dessert, of course you can order a coffee, roasted in Bucerias and freshly grounded for your espresso, cortado, cappuccino or latte, with organic or vegetable milk if you prefer.
