This place is about a 10 minute drive from town, but very unique, cool spot on the water. Often have live music as well.

Great experience and amazing fresh food. Also, the chicken tenders are some of the best beer battered I've ever had. Great seasoned fries as well. The grouper sandwich was perfectly crispy and the ceviche was a good portion and delicious.

JJ's has an amazing view! There are 2 stages for live music and a dance floor if the moment strikes you! Drinks were great! 4 large TVs for watching sports! It was a little chilly and they had the heat lamps going! Love the staff and the vibe we got!

Loved out experience. I particularly loved all the varying levels for outside seating. Overlooks the water and the dock where all the fisherman come in.

It's been a whole year since the ownership change of JJ's! The old JJ's had an unbeatable nostalgia but the new JJ's is awesome. They have made so many upgrades from the food to the facility, it's impressive. We now make this one of our regular hang outs when we are in Puerto Penasco. The staff here is on point!

Amazing spot right in Cholla Bay. The fish tacos are amazing and the view out back is excellent. They have live music and seating by the ocean. The inside bar is really nice as well! Wrecked at the Reef now owns this restaurant from what I heard. Service was very prompt and food/drinks came out quick. Highly recommend checking this place out! Will definitely be back again next time!

JJ’s has really turned up the great atmosphere in the bar and stepped up the food. The fish tacos were amazing made too perfection. The shrimp cocktail was one of the best I have had. I have eaten shrimp cocktail in Puerto Penasco for over 35 years so no BS! Ceaser was great and kept the cold mugged beer coming!
