Frommer's Review

La Roca is as unexpected a restaurant as you're likely to find in a border town. Built into a cliff and cool as a cave, it conjures up images of colonial Mexico. White-jacketed waiters provide a level of professional service found only in the most expensive establishments north of the border. Folk art and paintings in the spacious rooms seem to make the interior glow, and at night the place is lit with candles ensconced on the stone walls. The Guaymas shrimp and chicken mole are our longtime favorites. Don't miss the margaritas. Downstairs from the restaurant, you'll find a shop selling high-end Mexican pottery, furniture, antiques, and hand-woven rugs.
