We love the Asian ambiance and menu at Kampai, located in the Casita section at El Dorado Casitas Royale. Has a sushi menu and Buddha statue as well as appropriate background music to complete the mood. Extensive menu of Pan Pacific entrees. Kampai is air conditioned, which makes it a tempting choice to beat the heat for lunch.

To say Jo Jo's at El Dorado Casitas Royale is a favorite of ours is an understatement. This is our first stop after check-in. This open air restaurant is right by the water and next door to its namesake bar with swings. Eat inside or on a patio closer to the water. Expect to see fresh seafood displayed on ice most days - usually either Snapper or Mahi Mahi, cooked as you prefer. There is also an extensive Gourmet Burger menu, plus ceviche, wraps, salads, calamari, onion rings, and much more.

Heineken is served cold in frosted mugs along with Mexican cerveza, Tequila, Mezcal, Margaritas and any other beverage you desire - with or without alcohol.

You will either love Fuentes or you won't. We describe it this way. If you enjoy cooking shows on TV you will probably love it. There is one seating per night. You must arrive by 7pm when drinks are served. The chef and restaurant manager begin preparing and explaining courses at 7:30 broadcast on large screens throughout the restaurant. While one course is being served the next one is prepared before your eyes. This evening requires a good 2 to 2 1/2 hours, so as we say - if you enjoy this, it is a great treat, if you prefer a quicker dinner without fanfare - don't go. This is a prime opportunity to pair wines with dinner via the Sommelier.
 

• Dinner: 7:30 sharp

*Reservations are required. Closed on Sunday
