Places to Eat:
Don Pedro's Restaurant & Bar
@andrewandbrenna
Don Pedro's is my favorite spot in town. I visited Don Pedro's on my first day in Sayulita and I found its ambience hard to beat. There was live music and people dancing, creating a welcoming entrance upon arrival. We were sat at a table in the sand and watched one of the best sunsets I've ever experienced. The food is the definition of authentic. A must-try from Don Pedro's is their assortment of seafood tostadas.
