Best food in Cancun. Very budget friendly and super tasty. My favorite are eggs rancheros for breakfast and arrachera for dinner.

We were stopped on street by young fellow very excited for us to come try this place.. he was a…read morewaiter there and very friendly.. very accommodating but apparently we were not on same page. He spoke English and what brought me in was tropical margarita.. pineapple I believe.. so I order just that and to table comes a beautiful plain margarita and a frozen pina colada.. ok I'm not driving I'll indulge in 2 beverages! We get the guacamole which was great and hubby got tacos.. not amazing! We get bill and all the sudden waiter demands his 15% tip.. illegal to do the way he did it but we are strangers here and didn't want a fuss so we did it.. then no copy of receipt.. hmmm .. the vibe here is pretty laid back but we felt jilted and would not recommend going . Just felt it was yet another scam we experienced in Cancun.. not a fan!!!

Went on Tuesday night before a night out. It was a group of 7 of us and we were seated immediately…read moreon the patio. There was a guy there doing balloon hats and he made each of us one which was pretty cool and fun. They had a two for one drink special, so I ended up ordering a mango margarita and then a pomegranate margarita. They tasted good, but also like straight juice. I placed an order for a salmon burger but after about 10 minutes I was told they didn't have any buns so I couldn't get my burger. I decided to get the nachos instead. Everyone's food was coming and they were all enjoying themselves as I sat there waiting for my nachos. They finally came out and I was very underwhelmed. They were good but nothing spectacular. It was a cute spot with nice servers and music, but food and drinks were meh.

The food here is pretty good ! Me and my bestfriend enjoyed it. They give you free appetizer they told us it was fried flour with three different type of sauce. it was delicious. free is always good ahaha. There drinks here are reasonable and large ! The service here is just amazing ! The waiters hung up our stuff, explained everything to us. Super friendly as well. We had great conversations. Can't wait to come back when I come back in May ! :)

The service was absolutely lovely. It was more of a mash up between Mexican and American bar menu. I tried what was recommended to me by the waiter some type of dried out pork on a small shell. My husband had something that was just as dried out and non-memorable. The fried cauliflower we ordered was delicious. Perhaps stop in here for a drink and appetizer but move along for your main meal.

I ordered the 2XL burger and jalapeno poppers by delivery…read more At the core of my burger joint ratings will always by the meat, and the bread. The meat on this burger was overseasoned and had the dense and springy crumb that I've chided in previous reviews. The bread was decent, but nothing special. The jalapeno poppers were the highlight of the meal. They were large, well cooked, and a nice balance of fried breading, pepper, and cream cheese.

Gourmet Burger spot in Playa? Word?! Say no more! We were so excited to check out 3XL, seeing as it…read moreis the only place of its kind in this area that we've come across so far. It is in an accessible location across from Walmart, close to the central plaza, which made for an easy find. On a hot, Saturday afternoon after biking around a bit, a fat burger and fries sounded positively delightful! So what did we think of this spot? Let's get straight to the point... Atmosphere - 3XL offers casual indoor dining, similar to any fast food burger joint. Tables were spaced out and social distancing with enhanced cleaning was in place. Rating 4/5 Service - Although it feels like a fast food joint, you are still "waited" upon. Menus are digital and not very clear in regards to what toppings are included with burgers. Our server was not extremely helpful in explaining their "XL" concepts to us and never checked on us after we ordered. Rating 3/5 Food - 3XL apparently charges extra for all toppings outside of the usual lettuce, tomato and onion. Totally disappointing as the burgers you see on their menu are misleading since everything on the burger is actually an extra charge. At $5-$10 a pop, these burgers by themselves are not cheap! 3XL states that burgers are made fresh and they even make their own bread in house. In all honesty, we can't really say we tasted this difference in regards to the bread or meat. We tried the XL "Pio-Pio" and the 2XL "Muuu" with corn, fries and posteles as sides. Our horchata was also slightly watered down. Everything was good, albeit not amazing and for the price you pay here, you expect amazing. Rating 3/5 Overall, the experience we were hoping for with 3XL was a tad disappointing. We found it to be pricey for average quality. If you're into one-time "I went there" splurges, then you'll enjoy what 3XL has to offer, however, if you're craving a juicy burger on a budget, this place may not be what you're looking for.

Avoid this place like the plague!…read more Don't speak English. 6 employees on duty...about 2 working. Said my VISA card was declined even though my text alert said I was charged (now I have to contest the charge). So, I paid with USD and was overcharged. Soft drinks weren't working so our only option was bottled water. My burger was made totally wrong and they didn't give me the fries I paid for.

Nothing special, it's just McDonald's. But it has AC and free wifi, which is not something you…read moreshould take for granted. Especially if you are from the US, and visiting this hot and very humid city without any roaming data. We walked about 20 minutes to a bus stop from Mercado 28. We were just dripping wet. It was THAT hot and humid. We took the bus back to hotel zone and we were standing almost the whole time. The bus was packed and EVEN HOTTER. Getting into this McDonald's was just what we needed. It was cool and refreshing; the staff was polite and spoke good English, and voila, free wifi! Time to search on Yelp what's for dinner! I did like the tiny stall just for washing hands. There was one bathroom available at the corner, which I did not use. We shared a large crispy chicken sandwich meal - Pollo Tocino - for 99 pesos. Fries were not as warm, and the sandwich looked smaller than US size. The chicken patty was also thinner, and the bacon was miniscule. BUT. We were not sweating, and were seated. And not getting kicked out any time soon.
