Chango's Bar and Grill

Located in the new development area of Sandy Beach is Chango’s Rocky Point Bar owned by the the Puerto Peñasco philanthropist Larry Large and his two partners Mike and Kenny.  Larry is a well known figure in Rocky Point for his work with affordable housing, family assistance and educational programs within the community of Puerto Peñasco.  Additionally, he owns Hacienda Las Fuentes Restaurant on Fremont Blvd in town.

Inhabited by Lemurs 

Chango’s reminds me of the set from that well known motion picture of the New York City animals sent to live on a reservation only to end up on an island inhabited by lemurs.  With a safari flare, the restaurant has a thatched roof, bamboo lighting, and a jungle murals painted on the wall.  I could invision those lemurs monkey’s hanging from the lamp shades dancing to the music of the local band that plays on the weekend. The music and murals, combined with the lighting create an inviting and relaxing atmosphere 

Live Music on Friday/Saturday

While we were waiting for our food, Mike the manager of Chango’s saw me taking picture of the restaurant and came out to talk.  Mike is originally from Colorando has three kids and lives in RP.  Mike tells us the restaurant has been open for about a year.  Winter is the slow season in RP, so the restaurant is open Wednesday to Sunday.  The local band Los Akustikos plays on Friday and Saturday.  Chango’s recently hosted the Girls of Rocky Point Calendar contest.  Bringing together some of the most beautiful girls from around town.

Fabulous Chicken Burrito

I had the chicken burrito for dinner.  Fabulous.  Load with good quality chicken and a ton of green peppers and onions.  All cooked to perfection.  Chango’s offers everything from ribs, to fried fish to tacos.  On the weekend they have a wide selection of breakfast dishes.

We have heard that the exchange rate at Chango’s is still 10/1. As of the the end of March many establishments were giving a 13/1 exchange rate.  So it may be advantageous for you to ask them if they could give you a better rate than the 10/1.

The restaurant is located near the Sonoran Sea and Spa.  All in all we give Chango’s Rocky Point Bar our 4 green chilles. 

Kyle and Stephanie.
