Guido's Italian Restaurant

We really enjoyed this restaurant- good food, reasonable prices. It was also the only restaurant within walking distance of the resort. Lunch menu is mainly sandwiches with more options for dinner menu. I can recommend the prawn appetizer, hamburgers and the meatball sandwich for lunch, and the pizza served at night.

Guido's Italian Restaurant

We decided to try Guido's, since it was close to the resort. It was empty, since most folks ate at the restaurants located within the resort. We ordered a mixed salad (Insalata Mista) and two "personal size" pizzas, which were actually medium-sized pizzas. One was a vegetarian pizza and the other was a seafood pizza. We preferred the veggie pizza, since it seemed to have more flavor than the seafood pizza, which appeared to have only a few shrimps and clams. They gave us courteous service and asked us to sit down as we waited on our take-out. My sister has this habit of wanting to eat in front of the TV; it's so American.

When we ate the food in our room, we noticed that they provided us with ketchup and jalapeño sauce packets to go with the pizza. Interesting. Instead of red pepper flakes and mozzarella cheese, they give us what amounts to extremely mild salsa and mild jalapeño sauce. The food was too bland for my taste. The Nayarit area is not the spiciest fare I've had. The spiciest Mexican food I've had was supposedly from the state of Sonora, so I'd like to eventually visit that state, but for now we slathered on our jalapeño sauce over our somewhat bland pizza and made the best of it.

Perhaps the other dishes are better than the pizzas were. The salad was fine, and they included some bread rolls. Too bad they didn't also add pats of butter. If you want to check them out, they also have a website. They supposedly serve authentic Italian food. Since I have never been in Italy, I do not know if it's authentic, but it sure was too mild for me. BYOG (bring your own garlic).
