    Ceviche
    Tanis J.

    Hands down the best food we had while we were in Cancun! The resorts are too Americanized, and the Mexican food if any at them lack depth of flavour! We had the ceviche, and the seafood platter for two! (With a side of the habanero sauce - which was AMAZING). The server was very friendly- and attentive. He warned us about the spiciness of the hot sauce, and warned us to not get it on our skin! The restaurant was quaint and overlooks the lagoon- it's like visiting a mom and pop restaurant! Some of the reviews say that the food and drink is overly expensive- I disagree. The restaurants beside and down the street charge more money for lesser quality- service and food! I wish I could remember the servers name- but remember talking to him about how he moved back to Cancun from Texas (we joked about his big belt buckle). - anyways I'd like to thank him for his excellent hospitality!

    These guys decided to join us for dinner.   Air and child crocodile.

    Just had a wonderful dinner with my honey. We stsrted with the tuna tar tar. It was good. It had a flavor I could not recognize that I attributed to the sauce. Penny had the seafood risotto. It was enough for two or three people. It tasted great. I had the coconut curry shrimp with coconut rice. Delicious... Proceed are reasonable for what you get. I would come back again.

    My husband and I stopped in tonight and were immediately greeted by the sweetest waiters. We were the only people in the restaurant at the time and were a bit skeptical at first but were pleasantly surprised. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was relaxed, and the staff were so attentive. We watched crocodiles swimming in the lagoon. The whole dinner was a perfect way to end our trip to Mexico.

    Beautiful scenery!

    OMG the Shrimp Ceviche was absolutely delicious!!! Huge portion size. We also had the Coconut Lime Pasta with shrimp was very flavorful and satisfying. Stay away from the Tuna

    Delicious food, guacamole is the very best! Music playing, beautiful sunset at this place. Alligators in the swamp water wait for food, they don't bother anybody. Good entertainment if you ask me lol

    Salmon with mango sauce with green salad.

    I stopped for a quick lunch in this place. They have a lot of options for reasonable price. I took the Salmon with mango sauce. It was very good. I can't say the same about my Margarita. I think I'll give them a second chance.

    This is me and I recommend this restaurant if you ever come to Cancun .

It's huge, as far as presentation it's not very fancy, it was tasty but as large as it was you'd think it had more alcohol to offset the size. But it did not. My wife ordered the aguachile with octopus. I ordered the Tuna Burger, and we got the steak quesadillas as an appetizer. My wife said she would give her aguachile a 3.8 out of 5. I thought the tuna burger was very tasty. Basically they took a tuna steak and put it between a hamburger bun. I can't really compare it to a regular meat burger. But on a scale of 1-10 I'd give it a 7. It came only with lettuce and tomato, but it had flavor enough. The quesadilla's were good, but nothing special, I'd say they were comparable to any you get at an average Mexican restaurant in the states. We came here because of the high ratings. Maybe we ordered the wrong things to try, I thought everything was good, but nothing that was so good it made me want to hurry back.

    Decided to come here because it's expensive to eat on the resort we're at. We were sat down…read moreimmediately and they promptly took our order. The menu is simple with just enough options to where everyone can find something they like. I had the skirt steak tacos and my friend got fish tacos, We also ordered a frozen margarita and mojito that were huge!!!!! The prices were fair for what you get and the atmosphere is casual and comfortable. The music is not too loud so you can have a conversation with your group. They are not pushy to get you in and out like other places. Will definitely be back

We had been walking in the area earlier that day and made a plan to come back for dinner. When we arrived there were a lot of people but we were seated immediately. Martin was our waiter and he was great. There were a few large screen TVs playing sports. There was live music. A lot was going on but it really worked. People were enjoying themselves and the wait staff was friendly and talkative. I ordered shrimp fajitas and my husband ordered the mole. He always orders mole. The meals were very good. We ordered a mango margarita and Tecate. The margarita came with a tehine rim. I just wiped it off. That is becoming so popular. I decided to indulge in the banana dessert and I am glad I did. It came with a show. That was fun and the dessert was delicious. We were there earlier in the evening and we saw many couples and families. I'm sure the place gets a little more livelier as the night goes on. If you are in the area, this is a good place to eat and enjoy your time in Cancun.

    I've been coming to Cancun 35 years. How did I miss Mextreme??? Such a FUN and affordable venue!…read more Sitting outside, there is literally entertainment everywhere you look. The wait staff forms a conga line to deliver a margarita, carried atop a sombrero! The play tunes and dance around inviting diners to join them. Service is attentive & excellent! The menu has 90% Mexican specialities, but also has pasta, burgers and vegetarian. I was there with friends who had quesadillas & I had chicken enchiladas. Everything was good & portions were big. I just drank water, so cannot comment on the drinks. I had the flan for dessert, which was generous in size & ok. One of my friends had the flaming bananas & said it was so yummy! Everything is surprisingly (for Cancun) priced affordable. My enchiladas were about $12. I would happily return here! So much fun!

They start you with complimentary chips and a seafood soup. Both were very good, there were three types of dips for the chips. 2 were spicy one was not. My wife ordered the octopus tacos and they were excellent. The octopus was chargrilled but not burned, very tasty. The soft shell crab was very good, the flavors all complimented each other. The pizzas looked great so we got the lobster pizza knowing we'd have leftovers. The pizza is different but good. The mac n cheese was very yummy as well, we really enjoyed it. While we were there they had live music and I was able to get them to play Brown Eyed girl for my wife. It was an excellent dinner and experience. Very close to giving it 5 stars, it is a little pricey but it's upscale food with an amazing interior and view.

We ventured outside of the resort to experience local cuisine and we could not have picked a better place. It's located right on the water so there was a nice breeze where we were sitting. The service and the food was absolutely incredible. Everyone in my party was very happy with their experience there. 5 stars is not enough!
