The beach resort town of Mazatlán has long been known as the home of the Pacifico brewery and the first Señor Frog's. Restaurants like the Shrimp Bucket and Señor Frog's have been legendary spots for tourists to visit while in town, but there is much more you should know about the food scene if you are planning a visit.
