Slick CocoMaya seems more suited to the city than the beach. But on the sand it is, creating dishes with an Asian and Latin twist. Small plates include hoisin-sauced duck tacos and beer-battered snapper sliders, while large plates bring pork belly and pad Thai. There are more vegetarian and gluten-free choices than you usually see in these parts. Inventive, gingery cocktails add pizzazz.
