Shrimp Tacos
Jazmine M.

DO NOT EAT HERE !!! Let me start by saying the reviews here must be fake nobody was enjoying their food INCLUDING ME . I ordered fish tacos they were disgusting worst I've ever had in fact , the guacamole I could throw up the drinks are watered down and Louis had the nerve to charge me full price for my tacos and guacamole after I returned it with the plate FULL . Smh do not waste your time and take a look at the kitchen oh boy don't get me starters with the bathroom this place should be put out of business ! Bad customer service ! Just a horrible experience in general .

Causal open air style with highest quality meats. A few vegan choices but this is steak and seafood. Delightful waiter Luis made it the best

HUGE cocktails that we drank. Highly recommend the hurricane and the Long Island.

The best drinks we had in Mexico! This little gem off the main drag is worth the extra two blocks of walk. The cocktails are fantastic and HUGE (wish I had taken a picture before we drank them). The food was fantastic. We got the baked potatoes with arranchara and OMG . Then we both got tacos as our entree and they were fantastic. The restaurant is super cute and the service is great. We will definitely came back if in Cancun! Also, very instagramable. We sat with Juan and we loved him!! He was fantastic.

Don Julio 1942

Stopped hear for drinks. People that work here are really friendly. Better than that the service is great. Better check the exchange rate before you order. It's different than what everyone else uses in the area. Most places use 21-1. They are 18-1. Got some DON Julio 1942 served with a nice presentation. Also got two free margaritas just to come in.

What an awesome look this place has to offer that's it! The food was bland they sell better beans in a can than whoever cooks them here. I got the Eggs with chorizo breakfast and I got sad forcing myself to eat it since it was so salty. I didn't finish it but the waiter was so nice I tried to not be a bump in his road. My partner got the chicken enchiladas and they looked so beautiful when presented but the tortilla was super old it was hard to cut through it and the chicken was literally Tyson chicken placed inside of them. We got offered two free shots while walking by and I don't drink but my partner took his shot and they charged him for it so don't fall for that scam walking by. Unfortunately i found this place on yelp and we gave it the benefit of the doubt plus the shot that was offered was a plus.

This place is amazing. Great margaritas. They sneak up on you though because you can't taste the alcohol. Surf and turf was so so good. Definitely recommend. Can't remember our server's name, but he was also great. Very personable.

Hot cakes
Latrice W.

Rafael was the kindest, most attentive and personable waiter. The food was the BEST that we have experienced in Mexico. We had a combination of breakfast and lunch. Pancakes are good, tacos are wonderful, and drinks are amazing! Just GO

Chipotle pasta
Gil B.

The beef nachos were so good forgot to take a photo. Huge serving of chips with seasoned juicy carne asada with cheese, guac, & pickled jalapeños. The chipotle pasta was good & so was the garlic shrimp. It's a small pace and there was a DJ and it got a little loud with the only tables I can see were outside on sidewalk.

Chipotle pasta no bacon

Four stars excellent service! Small Place with large…read moreburritos. Had the chicken /pollo which was tasty. A little heavy on the beans would have preferred a little more chicken and cheese. My wife and I split one burrito. Went there twice in March thumbs up On the friendly service. Had the chicken burrito and the pineapple salsa with chips. Recommended!

There are a lot of things I want people to stop doing on yelp, but more than anything else, I want…read morepeople to stop lying about these international restaurants just because they, like I, got duped by TikTok videos. I saw so many videos and read so much hype about this place. I was excited to try it. I was just as disappointed when I threw out my burrito after a couple of bites. The food here is not good. It is so basic. I ordered chili cheese fries, and a burrito. For the burrito, you have to complete a form for your customizations, which I thought was going to be efficient. Unfortunately, despite my burrito, having everything in it that it was supposed to, I was overwhelmed by the massive amount of onions. Additionally, I was underwhelmed by the amount of shrimp inside my burrito. There weren't many at all and the entire burrito literally tasted like nothing. I ordered the shrimp and mahi. There was absolutely nothing remarkable about it. For a second, I almost wondered if I had Covid because the flavor was so lacking.But after speaking to friends of mine who also visited, I realized that I wasn't the only one. In total, I spent about US$32 on an order of chili cheese fries, a jerk, chicken, quesadilla, and a burrito. Fries: so bland. I wanted to throw them out, but I saved them and took them back to my hotel and added salt. It helped a bit, but these were overwhelmingly underseasoned and lacking flavor. The portion, however, was huge. Two out of five. Burrito: more mahi-mahi than shrimp, and neither protein was flavorful. The entire burrito was very bland and was full of more onions than I would ever care to eat. The burrito wasn't OK size, but it did not taste good. Two out of five. Jerk, chicken quesadilla: basic. Not super flavorful. And the chicken did not taste like jerk chicken at all. It didn't even have jerk flavor. Didn't even taste like they rolled the chicken in a little bit of jerk before cooking it. Three out of five. The staff noticed that I did not eat much of my food and asked if I didn't like it. I informed them that I did not like it and that I didn't think it had enough flavor. They did not care. I didn't fully expect them to because I know customer service is very different in Mexico, but I expected more. She even asked if the burrito was too spicy, which was hilarious because there was nothing spicy or even flavorful about it. This is very much a hole in the wall, kind of spot that has been blown up on social media. Very casual vibes, and there appears to be a small roof area where you can overlook the street. I would not return here. I also would not recommend it. Another example of influencers likely getting free food in exchange for review reviews. However, they do have a sign up that says you can get a free shot if you leave a review.

Once we stepped onto the deck overlooking the lagoon, the whole experience elevated even further. The scenery was stunning, soft lights reflecting off the water, a gentle breeze, and live music drifting through the air like the perfect soundtrack to an already unforgettable night. Then came the food, each dish was its own little masterpiece. The bread service alone set the tone: warm, golden rolls with just the right touch off salt. The wedge salad followed. It was crisp, cold, and generously dressed, with smoky bacon and bright tomatoes adding all the right contrasts. The dry-aged steak was the star of the table, cooked perfectly with that deep, rich flavor only dry-aging can create. The roasted peppers and silky sauce on the side made every bite feel intentional. The octopus was another standout, tender, beautifully charred, and plated with a vibrant puree that balanced the dish with a touch of sweetness. One of the best plates we had. The table got more entrees since there were 8 of us but didn't get pictures. Sea brass was another favorite. Even the lobster soup arrived with flair: a velvety bowl paired with a seafood-topped toast that brought texture and richness together in one elegant bite. The beef tartare with fries was classic and fresh, refined without losing its fun. Dessert turned into a full performance. The liquid-nitrogen ice cream came with swirling clouds of cold vapor, dramatic and delicious. The birthday cake arrived crowned with berries and a sparkling candle that lit up the whole table. And just when we thought the night couldn't get any more whimsical, out came the towering blue cotton candy, playful, over-the-top, and impossible not to smile at. Harry's doesn't just serve dinner. It creates an experience, one where the service, the scenery, the atmosphere, and the food all work together to make you feel celebrated. Our night felt luxurious, thoughtful, and truly unforgettable for my husband's 50th birthday! Well done Harry's!
