El Nayarit is a popular restaurant known for its authentic Mexican cuisine, especially the Empanadas, which are a key part of its reputation. The staff, including the friendly and knowledgeable team, create a welcoming atmosphere. Customers praise the well-cooked food, with Ray Tacos being a recommended dish. The restaurant offers fresh seafood such as aguachiles, camarones ala plancha, and tostada mixto, with generous portions of shrimp and mixed seafood. The family-operated establishment has a warm environment, and the family owners are often seen enjoying their own meals there. The venue features two inside dining areas and an outdoor patio, and it takes advantage of the large rock smoker left from a previous barbecue restaurant. Prices are very reasonable, and the place is kept clean and well-maintained. While the service is generally good, some customers note that the loud music and commercials can sometimes be distracting, but it adds to the lively, relaxed atmosphere. Overall, El Nayarit is a great spot to enjoy delicious Mexican dishes and fresh seafood, with a fun, bustling vibe.
