We shared an excellent taco platter (5 tacos) accompanied by refried beans and guacamole. The beef and chicken were moist and perfectly cooked. Our server was very patient with our limited Spanish. On a hot day, the fresh watermelon and strawberry fruit drinks were delicious. We came back a second day for enchiladas with chicken in green sauce and chicken quesadillas. Their enchiladas are delicious. They accept pesos. read more

Great food, prices, and service. Plus they had plantain daiquiris! We were sold. Enchiladas were a little messy/watery but we both enjoyed every last bite. A couple recommended this place as we walked up and we agree that it's a great place to check out. Chill vibes, chills from the fan, and overall enjoyable. Open concept from inside and outside. read more

The entire group ate a bite of our food, and all looked at one another in disbelief. The pork seemed like real meat, but the "beef" fajitas I ordered was rubbery and taste like a 3 day hot dog at best. The guac was cold and bland, and my microwaved rice was cold in the center. read more

Stopped here for lunch on our second to last day in Cancun and we were pleasantly surprised. It is right on the street and was walking distance from our hotel. I had the chicken enchiladas in mole sauce and my husband had the torta. We both were very happy with our meals and would absolutely go back again! Our server was very friendly and accommodating and checked on us several times to make sure everything tasted good. read more

My broken Spanish was enough to get by. The food was good. Sometimes they run out of one thing or the other, like one night they didn't have carnitas. The next night they didn't have the al pastor, so be ready for alternative choices. read more

The food was so great and authentic. The service was fast and they take American dollars. The place is small but quiet minus the traffic and it has authentic decorations. read more

Came to temptations resort and unfortunately food kept messing with our stomachs. We needed some real life food and we're big foodies! And maaaan! This gem right here hit the spot! Delicious! Would recommend to anyone visiting Cancun! And staff was so sweet and helpful! Going there again for dinner read more

4 stars because the service was actually quite bad when I was here, but it was very busy both times I tried to eat here. That said, my meal was excellent. I asked the waiter what he recommended because they have a rather large menu with good stuff on it. He recommended, amongst other menu items, a quesadilla. I hadn't had a quesadilla in Mexico yet, so I decided to try. I wasn't sure how it would be because quesadillas are usually boring. I got their Potato and chorizo quesadilla. I added some of their onions and salsas to it, and it was so good. I never really liked quesadillas in the past, but I am a fan now. 110 pesos for a quesadilla and a milkshake? One of my cheapest meals in Mexico. read more

The girls and I were looking for a quick spot to eat and came across this spot. We were greeted by the servers and we sat down and he took our orders. I ordered the margarita and the girls did the same. I enjoyed my margarita and it looked fresh. I also ordered the steak tacos and when that came out it was nothing but torilla and meat with a side of raw onions. It was just ok. One of the girls had steak and it was pure fat that she had to cut off. While the service was great the food was mediocre. read more

Greetings!! Stop by while walking and we were hungry. The food was ok and customer service was great. The margaritas were not strong but we added extra shots. Definitely a hole in the wall on the boulevard. Keep an open mind if you stop by. I would definitely return for some tacos while in the area but not for the margaritas. read more

Service was fine but the steak they just served me was inedible. Felt like it was going to "moo" and run off the plate. Felt like I was in a knife fight with a Rhinoceros. Soggy fries. It's always a good idea to avoid the hotel zone in Cancun and drive to another town like Tulum or Holbox where the food and restaurants are usually fantastic. read more

DO NOT COME HERE!!! They SCAMMED us told us our bill was 2550 on top of tip and their WiFi was down that's why they couldn't take card later when we asked for a receipt from another server it was not even 2000 :( BIG FUCKING SCAMMMMMM read more

The best local spot for tacos. Tacos Al carbon, chicharron, chorizo... delicious, homemade and simple. We tried guacamole everywhere and this place has the best. The enchiladas suiza was unexpectedly good. You really can't go wrong here and they have margaritas. In the middle of the hotel district but doesn't gouge you. Authentic and simple. You can't go wrong here! read more

The food wasn't good, service was absent, and the whole place was really dirty! Came here for dinner one night after seeing all the great Yelp reviews, and it was very disappointing. We ordered a gorinda and the #40 salted steak with salad and guacamole. Both items were not tasty at all. The gorinda was super dry and lacked any flavors. The salted steak was just really really salty, really really thin slice of bad quality meat and all I could taste was the salt. Really disgusting. Flies everywhere, the floor and table both sticky. Yuck! The service was pretty bad too, I guess to be expected. Avoid! read more

Run of the mill Mexican taqueria. Carnitas was bland and required lots of salsa. Fajitas was pretty good. Guac was also standard. Wanted al pastor but none was available during busy lunch. read more

Very cute little shop with super friendly employees! Everyone was smiling and very welcoming. The seating is mostly outdoors but there's also seating in the shade under the building. My bf and I decided to leave our all inclusive resort and head across the street (literally was a 2 minute walk from the Occidental Costa Cancun in hotel zone) to try out some of the authentic dishes they offered. We ordered a taco platter to share, flautas for me, and the bf got some kind of beef and scrambled eggs dish. The tacos were great! The beef sirloin and tenderloin was probably my favorite Bc it was fried crispy and was still so savory. Flautas were great with the delightful creamy white sauce on top, but the meat was a tad bit dry for my taste. My bf liked his dish as well but it was wayyyyy too salty. We noticed that they salt their meats aggressively so be sure to ask for less salt if you're sensitive to that. Overall, we went back often for delish tacos for cheap! We were shook at the great prices bc tacos back at home were 2.5-3.5 for a measly little thing smh. I think for the whole meal (drinks, tacos, and entrees for both of us) I only paid a little over $20!! OH! Also their fruit drinks are all freshly squeezed and super refreshing. I love freshly squeezed orange juice and the watermelon juice was presented fantastically in a huge glass. read more

Stopped by for carnitas after spending the day in Tortuga Playa. We were craving carnitas and drinks. After order two mixed drinks and a beer, we were told they ran out of carnitas earlier. The mixed drinks were delicious but not for the price. The total was 450 MD. I realize we were closer to Cancun but it seems excessive for a less than fancy restaurant off the main road. The consolation was walking to a beautiful church nearby. read more

Amazing food and very reasonably priced. The carnitas tacos are so good you'll have more!! Antonio was great and attentive. read more

We were staying in the area for vacation. And unfortunately our hotel had the most BLAND food I have EVER come in contact with ...so we ventured out in the streets and came across the gem. Perk was that it was close by and it was open late. For our three night stay, this became a go to... good food, better prices and even better staff... very friendly.. even let us stay past closing.. very authentic... highly recommended if I'm the area... Oh... and you won't go wrong with the guacamole. Ate it to quickly to take a picture of! read more

Straight fire. Sad to say we came here on our very last day of our stay in Cancun. Good location, staff was respectful, chill and attentive. We had a group of 9 and all enjoyed our meals! Over all we got burritos de al pastor, tacos de al pastor, enchiladas, gorditas, cheesecake and durazno con crema. The horchata was hella good. We tried a few different places out here and their horchata/food wasn't up to par. This place is solid though. Bookmarking for the next time we visit Cancun. Esta es la comida auténtica michoacana que nos estaba faltando en esta vacación, gracias! read more

Not sure if it was a bad day but the food was terrible, didn't even finish more than a taco out of hunger. Was very disappointed by the reviews stating it was good, not to mention the service was terrible our waiter forgot about 50% of our order. Once the first tacos came Out we decided not to even ask for The rest as the food was not up to par. I am sorry but please steer clear. Or do not Order the tacos! Or gorditas read more

I live in Los Angeles where Mexican restaurants are aplenty. Found this on Yelp and boy, I'm so glad we walked the 1.1 mile from Playa Langosta! The chilaquiles with rojo (red sauce) and tenderloin was so yummy! We added 2 eggs to it. Best chilaquiles I've had! Now I would have to come back to Cancun when I'm craving this! Lol! My sister & I are planning to come back here before we go home. That's how much we loved it! read more

Delicious and friendly! I had the omelet and my husband had the eggs and Valladolid sausage with a side of hot cakes. Best hotcakes we've had in a long time! There must be some cream cheese in the batter. It's absolutely delicious. We got cappuccino and water to drink. Worth the mile walk from our hotel. read more

These were by far the best tacos and pazole I've had in Cancún. Unlike many other places in the area, this was not a tourist trap. The tacos were meaty, juicy and had corn tortillas. Service was very friendly and polite in all aspects. It is a must go place! read more

Really authentic Mexican food was pretty good prices we came here twice! Service is great! Feels safe. Love to explore Cancún!

We were walking down Cancun one morning looking for food and luckily we found this place which the food was sooo good and close to where we were staying! The prices for the food were not bad for the food quality and deliciousness! Everything tasted so good that we went on our last day in Cancun. Really loved the Huevos Divorciados breakfast, it's so tasty so recommend it. So go to this spot if you want the best food for food price, the staff was also so nice! read more

Great authentic Mexican food. Was nice to get away from the resort foods and taste Mexico.

It's a decent place for a quick bite to eat. We had the Al pastor tacos and they were good with pineapple.

Magically I was staying at the resort across the street from this taco spot and I'm so glad I walked in. It does get lots of tourists on late afternoons. Horachata was nice but the cup smelled funky but I didn't wanna complain. Chilaquiles were wonderful but the carnitas topped off our dinner. read more

We were really hungry and this place was close so we figured we'd give it a try. We'll never go back. If I could give negative stars I would. Hands down the worst service I've ever had. They got my order wrong twice and it was cold. In fact they never got it right, I was just so hungry I finally ate whatever they brought. We ordered drinks we never got. They weren't even able to do the bill correctly. Seriously, they got nothing right. (My wife speaks fluent Spanish so it wasn't a language barrier, they are just not good at what they do) read more
