First time visiting Amaya we happened apon it after a hike and day at the beach. It was perfecto! The wait staff, in particular Sergio, were very inviting and accommodating. We had the fish cerviche, fish tacos and beers as we watched surfers catching the last waves before sunset. What a spectacular spot!
The super chill atmosphere; Surfside and barefoot with great tunes followed by live music, damn hard to beat. Delicious food, great service, unbeatable location. If you are near this place, check it out! It is worth the bumpy road in if your driving and a fantastic walk along the beach if you are in the neighborhood!
The only reason I didn't give 5 stars on the food was there were some options not available. It's not a huge menu, but what they do have is very tasty!

Such a magical place to watch the sunset and have a cocktail followed by some delicious tacos. Manu was so accommodating and even helped us with our Spanish. Definitely a good find!

This was such a beautiful experience - watching the sunset to live music with fantastic cocktails in hand, delicious food on order, and excellent service at a lovely bar ON the beach!
We ordered the cocktail special - a delicious hibiscus mezcarita which was absolutely delicious. Dinner was amazing as well with plenty of fresh fish options which we appreciated being from a landlocked state and wanting to enjoy as much fresh, local offerings during our time beach side.
The Gypsy Jazz music was top notch, a 2 man bad that set a perfect ambiance for the evening.
And we absolutely loved our server, Manu - he was attentive but laid back and had a great sense of humor. We really enjoyed chatting with him throughout the evening!
Sunset, live music, amazing cocktails and delicious food - this is a must experience and we'll definitely be back!
¡Manu es el mejor y lo sabe y lo sabemos nosotros y lo sabe todo el mundo! 😉 Hola Manu!

Spending an afternoon at Amaya was one of my favorite experiences in BCS! It is the most idyllic atmosphere, with great food and drinks, perfect music to set the mood, and super friendly service. It has to be the best place to watch sunset with a margarita in hand. Their chocolate clams were my favorite version of the dish that I had in Baja. Highly recommend spending a few hours (or more) taking in the scene here.

Laid back restaurant bar on the beach with a beautiful view & live music on weekend evenings.
We were blown away by the quality of the food! Everything we tried was delicious (rojo camaron, chicken, and cochinita tacos), including the sides of grilled and mashed vegetables! The dishes were also gluten-free 🙂
Service was friendly and food on point 👌🏼 I can see how this is a popular spot in the neighborhood.

We were very fortunate to find ourselves at Amaya for a beautiful sunset wedding! The atmosphere couldn’t have been better! We enjoyed delicious cocktails and food. We were hosted by an incredible staff, who were both fun and attentive! 5/5 highly recommended if ever in the area!
4 small margaritas were over $45.00 !!! Only good thing was that two of the young men did help get our vehicle out of the sand! Overpriced but atmosphere was nice.
