We went for lunch and Ricardo greeted us with a lot of personality and recommendations from the menu. The Passion salad, steak tacos, tortilla soup and silver margaritas were all delicious. Its open air under cover with plenty of above fans to keep you cool. Make sure to ask for Ricardo, he was great. read more

Popped in for lunch and had some of the BEST fried shrimp tacos of my life. I had to beat my family off of them. All their food was delicious and the 2 for 1 margaritas were top notch. 10/10 recommend. read more

Baby Lobster - Margaritas - Seafood Near Me - La Isla, ROO

The food was very good and a good value. We ordered the Surf and Surf for 2. The margaritas were ok. Very large and too sweet for me. All good, except for the bill. I saw other reviews where they did not want to take a credit card. I asked if they took credit cards when I walked in and they said yes to Visa and MC. However the CC machine "malfunctioned" . I paid with cash and the added a 20% tip without asking. I usually tip that, but they should have asked read more

Was a cute little place tucked away in the backside of la isla so not a lot of foot traffic. Drinks are big. Get their surf and turf or surf and surf. Lots of buttery goodness perfect for 2. The owner and wait staff were very friendly! There was a sign posted saying "cash only" but we didn't have any on us and we used card no problem (no fuss, surprised reading the other reviews about cash). They used the handheld machine at our table. read more

Of all the restaurants I went to while in Cancun, this was hands down my favorite. The food was delicious. It was the best tocos I've ever had in my life. Our waiter Jazz was amazing, he gave 5 star service. Prices were also very reasonable. This will be the first place I go to when I come back. read more

Love Baby Lobster! We have visited Cancun every year for the last 12 years (we have timeshare at Westin Lagunamar). We eat at Baby Lobster at least once when here. Always enjoy their food and staff. Recommend you try them! read more

Walking up, the greeter was amazing. The co-owner took our order while sitting with us telling jokes and taking about life experiences. This is just to let everyone know the atmosphere was electric. My husband ordered a beer for a man and it was big enough for three men. I had the passion fruit margarita and it came in an over-sized mason jar...once again enough for two people or a real alcoholic (lol). The food, we both ordered steak and lobster with baked potatoes and toss salad. The food was flavorful and cooked to order. Please come see Andy!!! Oh, the price for two was under 150.00. The music booming through the speakers was Motown, once catering to African American customers that filled the restaurant. However, anything you request Andy would accommodate. We're coming back tomorrow!!!! read more

Mixed! Wife's lobster was good, my filet and shrimp was a mistake! Drinks were fabulous, service was attentive! Pros: drinks Cons: charge $265 mxn for tables service, and that is not a tip for your waiter. I have spent less money for better food these past 2 weeks. Will return for drinks ‍ read more

Baby Lobster - Surf and turf platter for two - Seafood Near Me - La Isla, ROO

The baby lobster changed since we were there. A smaller drink and higher price for nicer seating takes them out of the hidden gem category and makes them not worth the walk from the hotel. read more

Super yummy and great service! Only downside was the card machine was acting up so we had to get cash at an atm next door to pay which of course charged a fee! But besides that, great little place :) def recommended the coconut shrimp!! SO YUM read more

Baby Lobster - Shrimp tacos - Seafood Near Me - La Isla, ROO

Great value, great service, and great food! Do yourself a favor - skip right past the Chili's, Hooters, and other restaurants that want to churn/scam you and head straight to Baby Lobster. It's a bit tucked away on the north side of the Isla Mall, but that also makes for a nice relaxing meal on the 'riverfront' away from the crowds. Andy is a great server and makes you feel right at home - especially with the 2-for-1 martinis. We really enjoyed our meal here and would highly recommend it to others. Super easy to get to via the 10-peso buses that run up and down the hotel strip every 30 seconds. read more

Baby Lobster - Surf & Surf dinner for 2 - lobster, shrimp, salmon, fish + sides and 2-for-1 martinis - Seafood Near Me - La Isla, ROO

This place was pretty good. We had the grilled lobster and the steak and lobster. Yes they are baby lobsters but I think between the veggies and the pasta it was enough food. Also great margaritas.. apparently between 5-8pm they give you the mason jar margarita 150 pesos each. Tip typically gets included to your bill automatically. read more

Food was terrible. Not sure what the steak they had was? Lobster was ok! Baked potatoes we ate. Margarita I got was Strawberry I ordered regular Margarita. Told the waiter he said welcome to Cancun! We ordered cheeseburger to go. A big mistake! After one bite! We trashed it ! Tasted like FISH oil! Wish them luck ! read more

Just finished eating at Baby Lobster, located at the La Isla Mall. Food is delicious and very fresh. Our server Jorge, was very attentive, lively, fun, friendly and personable! Not only was he great with us but we witnessed Jorge being the same with all the other tables. He was the cherry on top of our wonderful dining experience at Baby Lobster. And also great music! Mixto of Country and Spanish music! read more

This is a hidden gem in Cancun. Such amazing food, service and drinks. We make sure to stop in every trip to Cancun. The surf and turf for 2 is amazing and a great price too. Make sure to try it out; you won't regret it. read more

The seafood was great and the service was amazing as well;however, as the other review stated, they are very sketchy at the end with the cash. They want you to pay in cash and try to force you to pay in cash as much as possible with even saying their machine is broken but it's not. They will charge 21-23% in tips and try to lie oh we aren't charging tip but I'm like really? I'm not dumb and see you added 1000 pesos in tips. read more

Great service atmosphere and food! Had Guacamole, fajitas and shrimp and cheese! And of course margaritas! A must for relaxed place for lunch or dinner! read more

FANTASTIC We had a wonderful time with 12 other people while on vacation at TheWestin Lagunamar Service was terrific and the food was amazing portions were huge the Surf and Turf so big & shareable, We went back and my husband had Fish &Chips I had Coconut Shrimp ( portions were huge ) The manager and waiters were friendly and appreciated our business. Unlike some of the larger restaurants don't really care. Payment is with CASH A must go to! read more

Ricardo was the best waiter, we have been in Cancun for five days and this was by far the best food ever. We had coconut shrimp as a appetizers and it could've been a meal the shrimps were so big. We also tried the shrimp and beef fajitas and my husband got the Mexican combo. Out of five stars this is six stars you have to try it if you come to the shopping center in Cancun. read more

The food wasn't that bad. But they charge alot more after all. They charge us extra 20$ for tip on top of the bill.

Excellent service and very friendly family owned business. It's a little hard to find but just around the corner from the Mexican Bazaar. Definitely worth it. Ricardo is awesome. Highly recommended! read more

The spot was great. We were walking and one of the waiters or owners stopped us and told us that the restaurant was the best. Of course everybody says that. But we decided to give it a shot Since we were dead tired and very hungry. So we walked in the waiters and the servers were awesome. My wife is the pickiest eater in the world. She absolutely loved her I think it was tequila shrimp amazing. The sauce was phenomenal. Of course I had to get the red snapper deep-fried. It was fantastic. They made some custom chicken for my son with vegetables. In all it was a great fight. Great food. Great service. read more

This is our 3rd visit to Baby Lobster...our last stop every time we stay at Westin Lagunamar. We always have a great time and the food is always delicious.

This place was awesome!!! Ricardo is a great waiter!!! Food was one of the best food we have had all week!!! Recommend the pasta al gusto and the burger!!! Delicious and let's not forget about the maracuya water drink!!! read more

The food was pretty decent and so was the service. However, this place is just another money grabbing operation as most places are in Cancun. First, the waiter (or the manager) took the liberty of giving themselves an 18% tip (we were just a party of 4 and there is nothing on the menu about mandatory tip). Then the waiter complains that the 18% tip they have charged needs to be shared with the rest of the staff and he wants additional tip 'just for himself'. I don't mind tipping and always do but not when someone tries to twist my arm to do it. read more

Horrible place. Got into Playa late with few options at 10:45 pm for dinner. Stopped at first place that we ran across that was still serving food. First, the waiter asked for our drink order. I said I wanted a small margarita. He kept trying to tell me I should get the jumbo one. I told him no several times almost to a point that I wanted to cancel my drink. Then I ordered the lobster tacos. They were nothing special just ok. I only ate 1 of the 3. The margarita arrived and it was awful. It was strong and the tequila was nasty. When the waiter came back if asked me if there was something wrong with my tacos I told him they were ok but the margarita was terrible. He apologized and took it away. I thought for sure he'd take it off the bill since I only took 1 sip. But he didn't. I'm giving this place 1 star only because my taco was edible. read more

Walking around the mall and we decided to give it a try. Everything we had was great! We tried a margarita and strawberry mojito (cute glasses). Had a guacamole appetizer and it was better than what we get at our hotel. The three of us shared the surf and turf, we were all full by the end of it. The staff were so friendly and sweet to my five year old. Highly recommend giving it a try!! read more

We went for dinner and had a great meal. Ordered the melted cheese shrimp appetizer and it was delicious. Came with fresh tortillas. My girlfriend ordered the shrimp and bacon tacos very good. I got the fish Veracruz and it was amazing. Living in Phoenix we eat Mexican seafood a lot and this was as good as any we have had read more

Ricardo, Great man served us delicious food and very friendly! Love it, I highly recommend this place.

Highly recommend. Food was great, had the Shrimp Burrito and wife had the Shrimp Tacos. Both were prepared with fresh ingredients and were delicious. Service was excellent, Ricardo treated us right, great recommendations and took great care of us. If in the area, I would highly recommend Baby Lobster. Also, ask for Ricardo. read more

My husband and I decided to take a chance and we were pleasantly surprised. We ordered lobster tacos and chicken tacos. These were not traditional style tacos but we enjoyed our food. We also ordered margaritas and enjoyed those too. I do wish I could remember our waiter's name but we are glad he convinced us to give them a try. We do wish we would've been told the preferred method of payment up front (usd) but other than that, we've no complaints. read more
