The story

Restaurante Punta Morro – Michelin Recommended Baja Med in Ensenada

A Dining Room Over the Pacific

Perched on the cliffs of Ensenada, Restaurante Punta Morro offers a panorama that stretches across the bay to the open Pacific. Guests dine with a front-row view of the sunset over the waves, whether seated indoors or on the outdoor terrace. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, with a semi-formal dress code that signals the care put into every detail.

Baja Med with Chef Hugo Angulo

Chef Hugo Angulo, a figure deeply rooted in Baja California’s culinary history, leads the kitchen. His cooking is defined by a respect for local ingredients and a passion for Baja Med cuisine – a style that blends Mexican traditions with Mediterranean influences. The menu changes with the seasons, but always highlights the region’s bounty.

Award-Winning Specialties

The restaurant’s signature dishes have earned recognition: the lobster enchiladas, Baja empanadas, and Isla de Cedros sopecitos are perennial favorites. In winter, the kitchen presents a seasonal menu featuring roasted farm pumpkin soup, duck leg in cranberry sauce, oven-baked adobo pork shank, and fresh steelhead trout from Baja California. Each plate is crafted with precision and a clear sense of place.

Punta Morro’s commitment to quality and its stunning setting have earned it a Michelin Recommended distinction, placing it among Mexico’s notable dining destinations. Whether for a leisurely breakfast with more than 60 options, a long lunch, or a sunset dinner, the restaurant delivers a consistently memorable experience.
