Los Shakas is quickly carving out a special place in the Rocky Point dining and bar scene with a refreshingly simple and much-needed concept: fair pricing for locals and Americans alike, without sacrificing quality, creativity, or atmosphere. In a town where prices can fluctuate wildly, Los Shakas feels grounded, welcoming, and genuinely community-driven.
At the heart of the recipes is Leo, a multi-national chef bringing 22 years of culinary experience and a deep catalog of recipes to this new venture. His approach is bold but approachable, and the menu reflects that philosophy—constantly evolving, sometimes changing almost weekly, which keeps regulars excited to come back and try what’s new.
The current standout is the Green Chili Pork, a signature dish that balances heat, richness, and comfort in a way that feels both familiar and elevated. Not far behind is the Green Chili Hamburger with Fries, a crave-worthy twist on a classic that delivers big flavor without pretension. Another incredible plate is the Blackened Mako Shark. Coming soon will be a variety of house-made soups, and weekend favorites like red and green pozole, which promise to become staples for locals and visitors alike.
The kitchen runs smoothly under Chef Mitchel, who works the line with calm confidence—effortlessly moving from stove to oven while turning out beautifully executed dishes. Watching him work is a reminder that great food doesn’t require chaos, just skill and focus.
Quality sourcing is a point of pride here. Seafood is brought in daily from the fishing boats of Puerto Peñasco, ensuring freshness you can taste, while the carne, hamburger, and other meats come from Top Meats, one of the area’s most respected spots for premium cuts.
Behind the bar, Ray Ray and Chino elevate the experience with outstanding signature refreshing cocktails, made fresh and perfectly balanced—bright, refreshing, and dangerously easy to enjoy more than one. The Cóctel Increíble are their mixed shots. Every one is carefully and magically created and will be made based on your pallet. Los Shakas also carries the coldest beer in town. -4C or 28 degrees Fahrenheit. They have pushed beer to the limit of coldness to make sure you have the best possible experience.
Looking ahead, Los Shakas is only getting better, with live music and karaoke on the way, promising lively nights that match the warmth of the food and staff. Meanwhile, Humberto, the other owner, keeps everything running smoothly, managing and leading the team with a steady presence that’s felt throughout the restaurant.
Los Shakas isn’t just another restaurant — it’s a growing neighborhood favorite that blends honest pricing, skilled cooking, fresh local ingredients, and a welcoming vibe. Whether you’re a local or visiting Rocky Point, this is a place you’ll want to return to again and again.
