Le Papagayo, Leucadia and Carlsbad

Le Papagayo is always the place for Mother’s Day and Easter! Le Papagayo will be serving an All-You-Can-Eat Buffet on Easter and Mother’s Day with serving stations at their Carlsbad location! There will also be an a la carte menu. The Leucadia location will be serving a condensed regular menu.

Le Papagayo is a great local’s hangout for a delicious breakfast, lunch or dinner. They have a full bar and live nightly entertainment. Watch MLB and Padres baseball on their many big screens from your table or from their long bar! And, there’s no cover!

Le Papagayo is one of the few restaurants that actually expanded during the pandemic by opening its very successful second location in Carlsbad Village. Their newest restaurant is being built on Hwy 101 in Encinitas and is scheduled to open in 2026. The Carlsbad restaurant is spectacular, with live music nightly, and is always busy. It has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, many new large flat screen TVs, a bustling long bar, great food, and a live music stage. Locals love the outdoor patio seating and the wonderful award-winning cuisine.

This locally family-owned restaurant has gained over the years, a large, loyal, following. We want everyone near and far to experience the flavors and sounds of this dining establishment on Historic California Coast Highway 101 in Leucadia, and on Carlsbad Village Drive, in Carlsbad Village, because Le Papagayo is truly awesome. You’ll love their unique fusion of Mediterranean and Latin American cuisine, along with their hang loose beachy vibe. Some of San Diego’s finest musicians play music at both locations.

Le Papagayo has 4-5 star ratings on Yelp, OpenTable, and Tripadvisor and are recent winners of OpenTable Diners’ Award. Open for breakfast, try their eggs, omlettes, acai bowls, fresh fruit, pancakes, chicken fried steak, or their signature Loco Moco. Their lunch and dinner menu rocks and so does their Happy Hour menu with new specialty cocktails and food and drink specials every day from 4-6pm and on Tuesdays all night long! Their Wagyu Burger and Pulled BBQ Pork are amazing and so are their Ahi Poke and Spring Rolls. Other favorites include Carne Asada, Duck Confit, Mahi Mahi and Shrimp Tacos. Their Happy Hour menu and regular menus offer a variety of quality, tasty and healthy items, and will surely have something perfect for you. They’re open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner until 11pm.

Seating, either inside or out, on their beautiful expanded outdoor patios, enjoy a sangria or any of their house and specialty wines, craft beers, and full bar.
