The food was sooo tasty and a really good portion I would have eaten here every day if the place wasn’t swarming with flies

Great place with great food at great location at the end of the beach. I tried the sea soup and the fish filet. Both were really good.nWe ate here three times and the main reasons for coming back was that the portions are bigger (and better) than other places and that Mama Lin is really sweet! She is very welcoming and warming and you get happy whenever you call her «Mama Lin».nnI really recommend coming to this place.

The best local food we ate during our month in Nicaragua! Mama Lin puts her heart and soul into these delicious dishes, with massive portions, fresh ingredients, and lots of flavour!nShe is open from 6am-9pm I think, serving delicious and hearty meals all day. She is a wonderful host and service is warm and friendly. You can buy beers/drinks from the bar next door and drink them while you eat, or she serves a variety of non-alcoholic drinks.nPrices are very affordable - great value for money.nHighly recommend

Definitely the best restaurant in El Gigante. Mamalin received you very warmly with her secret recipes and local dishes, fresh fish tacos, nachos, guacamole.. highly recommend for a heartwarming and delicious local lunch or diner (It says it closes at 6 but it’s a mistake, they close at 9 :))

The food is very delicious and a portion is enough for any adult, two children can easily eat with one service. Good view of the coast of Gigante, near the exit of the river on the northern part of the coast. To get to the place by vehicle or motorcycle it is easier to ask people because the road is complicated to give the address. Recommended 100!
