6 Shrimps , a whole octopus and a lobster tail.
Cindy V.

Fun restaurant, great seafood, great cocktails, excellent staff. Seems like a place where locals come on a special occasion, especially a birthday. I loved the passion fruit margarita I ordered. It was so refreshing and delicious. The waiter rolls out the fresh raw seafood on a cart and tells you the catch of the day and you pick what seafood you want and he suggests different ways of preparing it. Overall, very nice experience. Seafood was cooked perfectly. Would come back again!

Ceviche especial
Mario S.

Best place that we've eaten at in 7 days. The food quality and taste is fantastic and fresh. The service is excellent too. Our waiter Carlos was super pleasant and attentive. The cocktails are great. We had the parrillada de mariscos and ceviche especial de la casa. Delicious!!!! I highly recommend this place. The atmosphere is chill. Get out of zona hotelera!

Complimentary shrimp soup, strawberry shake and a little tostada.

Great ambience, friendly staff, and their food was great! I totally forgot to take a pic of what we ordered because we were just ready to eat lol but I definitely recommend this place. We went for lunch so it was less crowded. Pro: spacious restaurant Cons: if you seat nearby the fountain, there's a foul smell

This restaurant is so beautiful and we had such a great time! The staff is amazing and super friendly. Because it was our first time there, they brought out a complimentary dish, a refreshing lemonade mint drink (which was soooo refreshing and one of our favorites) and a soup. The calamari, coconut shrimp and grilled chicken were delicious. I really recommend the coconut shrimp. I thought it was so clever to plate it in an actual coconut. They also sang to me for my birthday, and brought out desert which was so nice. 10/10 recommend this restaurant. Must try if you are here in Cancun. I already want to go back to try more dishes.

grilled fish tacos
Christine M.

service was 10+ Manny was perfect! We are gluten free so could not have deep fried fish/shrimp. We had grilled tilapia it was ok but flavor was a bit off ... salsa and guacamole was amazing!! service fast - we had not eat all day so it was good to have fast service!! loved the white sauce they put out with chips green is spicy so if you like spicy you'll like. loved the decor and service was a 10

Unreal!!!!!!!!!!!!!! First we notice how packed it was at 3 in the afternoon then we saw them serving octopus. So we waited and sat down. Beautiful atmosphere to eat and be in. Not too noisy and the customers service was amazing. Then the food came and was unreal 10-10 will deff go back the seafood bisque was house complete and it was amazing. The steak was ok but the octopus and seafood was all incredible.

Awesome drinks!! Not one complaint...
Michael G.

This place is perfect. Great atmosphere, awesome service, amazing food and drinks. Julio was the best server and kept coming out with house samples of different food. Definitely stop by if you're in the area!!

Agua Chile and lobster tacos
Gwendie G.

We struggled to find some Yummy seafood like we've had on the Pacific side of the ocean. I found this restaurant on yelp, it did not disappoint. The service was a 10 out of 10. They make tableside Mojito's as well as a shrimp soup. Everything we eat the state was great.

This place is great! It is WHY we rejected an all inclusive plan at our hotel. We came here sight unseen and had INCREDIBLE food and OUTSTANDING SERVICE! They even sang to us when they found out it was our anniversary. Highly recommend El Oasis!

Emily S.

We happened upon this spot as we were looking to kill time waiting for friends to arrive. How lucky we were. Service here is top notch and they are taking all Covid precautions. Our waiter Javier was super friendly and recommended the seafood sampler plate. Too much food but oh so good. Would highly recommend.

Delicious and authentic Mexican seafood restaurant overlooking the laguna. If you want beautiful…read morescenery, high quality seafood, and a less-touristy atmosphere in the hotel zone, check this place out! Waiters speak Spanish and English, are very friendly, and absolutely no wait for the waterfront table. The shrimp ceviche had so many shrimp with a tasty sweet sauce and avocado garnish. Guacamole was perfectly prepared, and all meals come with tortilla chips and a variety of salsas on a decorative boat tray. The tuna steak and Salmon with Lime Sauce were prepared perfectly and were both tasty and high quality. Sadly, the food was so delicious and filling we had no room to try the desserts. About a block away from the Isla Mall, but a much more authentic experience than the mall restaurants. A must-try dinner spot for seafood lovers in the Cancun hotel zone.

Awesome. Nothing new for Cancún eats on Hotels Kukulcán…read moreBlvd. Totally dug the wide variety of fresh selections sitting at this gorgeous beachfront locale. From varying tortas, quesadillas, & burritos; to seafood risotto's & shiny tuna steaks.. (get the Camarones à la Mexicana). (Needs to get the Octopus off menu; cmon.) Check out the outdoor cabana-style comfortable seating area next to the joyful boat dock. Service is quick, efficient, extremely friendly, and informed.. as expected ;)

Navíos was nothing short of amazing!…read more My big baby and I went on our first (of many) vacation to Cancun. While there we picked three nice restaurants to try and Navíos was one of them. Ambiance is gorgeous. On the bay, this gorgeous restaurant is sexy and giving out door classy if that makes sense. Customer service was outstanding and the servers were super friendly. My big baby doesn't speak a lick of Spanish and they spoke English which was great. For all you non Spanish speaking people, have no fear they speak English too. Loved the Alligator sign as it did make the visit exciting, I really wanted to see one come near us but no luck as those visitors are night time party animals. Let's get into it! We are in Mexico where chips and salsa are complimentary! They were so good and the salsas were delicious. Who needs a real app when you have these! Shrimp Alfredo - It was good! Fish of the day - (native to the waters from there) He loved it! Dessert- We passed! Being on the bay there are tons of mosquitoes. We had to make a fast break to our hotel. Although the food was good we would likely never choose a restaurant with outdoor seating as this proved to be a bit of a challenge. They did have off which helped. The only thing I like biting me while on a lovely vacay is my lover! No bueno to the mosquitoes. Side note: No stars off! The place is gorgeous and food was great!

What a nice restaurant with great views. Service is top notch. The food and drinks were all…read moreamazing. Fairly priced and great portion size. Can't wait to come back next vacation.

There is parking right by it, but it only can hold 10 cars maybe? We lucked out and found a spot. VERY IMPORTANT, they only accept cash so make sure you have cash. They take pesos and dollars. You walk down stairs to enter the restaurant and it is very inviting and over looks the water. Apparently you can frequently see crocodiles in the water. We were not so lucky. At the advice of our friend and the waiter we got several of the Pescadillas (fried fish tacos). The waiter explained that the fish was actually shark. The tacos are 28 pesos each, we each got 3. And they were delicious, we also ordered the Shrimp with garlic mojo. The shrimp was sooo good, as is in the name, it is very garlicky but very good. Just bring some gum. Taking into consideration the ambiance, food, and cost. This was one of the best restaurants we have visited during our stay. We'll be back.

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.
