Business Owner

It was during the early 1960's that the founders of RBL became familiar with the Puerto Nuevo lobsters.  In the late 1970's, after perhaps a hundred trips to "Lobster Land", they became convinced that a similar type food could be introduced in the states.  In the summer of 1983, they introduced the Puerto Nuevo style lobster dinner to the U.S.  Then in 1985 the founders converted the menu and décor at the Old Bonita Store location in San Diego, California into that of a Puerto Nuevo lobster house serving Baja style lobster as well as many new lobster specialties that they created themselves.  In May of 1992, they opened a second restaurant at the Oceanside Marina in Oceanside, California.  It was there that Rick D. and his father Joe came up with the idea of Rockin' Baja Coastal Cantina, the prototype of many more that they planned to open along the Southern California coastline.
