About
Craving authentic seafood in Puerto Peñasco? El Calamar Gigante delivers a classic, no-frills experience right in the heart of it all. This open-air spot on Calle Luis Encinas—steps from lively Calle 13—serves up ultra-fresh catches in a relaxed, neighborhood atmosphere that feels like home.
The menu highlights the ocean’s best: shrimp and scallop cocktails, mixed seafood and clam cocktails, plus triggerfish and sierra ceviches. For something bolder, try the shrimp, scallop, or mixed aguachiles. Tostadas loaded with shrimp, scallops, or sea snail are local favorites, and fish comes fried, wrapped, or breaded to perfection. Families are welcome, with kid-friendly options that keep everyone happy.
