Locals crowd El Viejo at lunchtime, and why not? This unprepossessing little eatery is the best taquería on Baja California Sur's rugged and beautiful East Cape, as well as being one of the best restaurants in Los Barriles. Grab a table in the shade, order a couple of cold Pacíficos, and dig into the taco of your choice (pescado or al pastor preferred). There's a fixing bar where patrons can add their own toppings. This is the perfect midday pit stop - only a block or so from the beach, and a short walk from several hotels - and it's also conveniently located next door to ExotiKite, the premier kiteboarding rental and apparel source for the windsports enthusiasts who flock to the East Cape during the winter months.
