How do you spend a birthday in Cancun?? We'll let me show you, first you head over to Las ape for this big ass marg and hookah ohhh and let me not forget tacoosssss!! I recommend the shrimp tacos. They were too goodttt!!! The service was on point, the vibes were on point, everything was really on point and boyyy make sure you take at least three shots (it's only right) So head over to The Hotel Zone in Cancun and get y'all some of this!!!!

Chelada

This is one of the best spots in Cancún. The place is divey and they play loud music; if that doesn't bother you, just order food from here. I was very skeptical about eating here,But I'm glad I did. The food was delicious, but simple. Everything I ordered was delicious. The Michelada was great as well. I order the michelada with a Modelo beer and it was very tasty. Overall this was the less expensive place that I ate and one of the best.

Ceviche: pretty good and you get a ton of it.

So there are (at least) two restaurants by this same name in Cancun but this is the one in the party zone. The food isn't amazing but it's pretty darn good plus our service was over the top terrific. Depending on your mood, sitting outside or inside makes a huge difference. Inside, you've got a fairly quiet restaurant. Outside, you've got a front row seat to the drunks and vendors and zanies walking this area. That's what we wanted and, even though there weren't any outside tables available, they quickly and happily set one up at our request. The margaritas are tangy and clearly homemade (no mix). The micheladas come in a stein as large as a Buick and are fresh and spicy. The horchata was freshly made, too, and delicious. The guacamole--ordered at the start--did not appear until after our meals were served which was a bit of a bummer but it was also homemade and very good. For our meals, we split the regular sized mariscada with shrimp (the dish everyone seems to get based on the pictures on Yelp) and a ceviche that was MASSIVE. Neither dish was spectacular but there was plenty of food, it all tasted fresh, and it was all tasty. Aside from the dry and boring salad portion, The mariscada is a fun dish and came with rice, beans, fantastic grilled peppers, and two differently prepared shrimp servings. This is not a fancy or amazing restaurant but it's fun and reliable and sometimes that's good enough.

Mix of tacos

After biking in 100% humidity we were desperate to eat in any air conditioned spot regardless of how good the food would be. Unfortunately the other shops nearby were all closed due to Covid and weren't opening up for another couple days. Luckily, one of the waiters flagged us over with promises of cool a/c and we're so glad he did! The food and drink were delicious. I ordered the grilled shrimp tacos and frozen margarita and my husband got a variety of different tacos. The wait stuff were friendly and courteous and even helped my husband find a spot to park our bikes. Definitely recommend this off the beaten path spot- just ignore all the annoying locals trying to sell you things along the way.

Menu, where?

Terrible food, terrible service. Overpriced shack. Making money on tourists by providing terrible service and spoiled food. Service is 1 out 10. What a disaster restaurant. Avoid. Not recommended!

Grilled pineapple, shrimp and cheese

The food was so great!!! staff were kind and their service was really good!! I especially enjoyed the food with grilled pineapple shrimp and cheese !! Of course taco was good too!! This place made my dinner feel wonderful! Thanks guys

Was looking for some fresh grilled fish tacos in the main party zone in Cancun and found this place from fellow yelpers. If your looking for grilled fish or shrimp tacos this is the place. Fish was fresh and delicious. I ordered the garlic mojo de ajo and ajillo grilled fish tacos. My favorite of the two was the ajillo I liked the chili under the fish (was very mild which was great). Santos the waiter explained all the fish taco varieties and I stayed away from the spicy ones for sure. Some others might like those but I can't handle spicy food :) Guacamole was big but wasn't that good I have had better unfortunately.

Whole fish, fried
Janelle B.

Amazing. Literally was starving and passed by-- the music drew me in lol they were jamming . Ordered the whole fish & I'm embarrassed to show how I left the plate lol but it was great. Very welcoming staff , great drinks. Also stayed and did hooka for a bit. Hooka pricing same as US. Can't wait to go back

Great service great food. Marisco's were on point but I have had better not gona lie. Hard Shell shrimp tacos with avocado was bomb, had ceviche and camarones de ajo(garlic) plate.

add tips by themselves. Poor service.
Eden L.

Poor decoration. Cheap chairs and greasy tables. Some dishes charge more than my 4 star hotel. The flavour was just OK. The waiter missed one of our shared dish leaving us unhappy and unsatisfactory. We had tacos and grilled fish. They are both Ok. Filling of tacos was not generous. The fish was better. The fish came with rice and salad. The big tray of dish looks interesting but we never get that and didn't want to wait for it.

Had a f*ckin blast at this spot! This a most definite place to visit while in Cancun! The tiger is my favorite attraction along with the food & drinks!

Shrimp burrito con todo
Mayra C.

Such great service from the waiter. Their agua frescas were delicious and for the price?! Un-believable! I loved it! The thing that really made this place stick out was their green salsa!!!! Had to ask the lady that worked there how to make it before I left, it was to die forrrrr.

Sol is a must
Marianne V.

We finally was able to try this place out last min after shopping at the Mexican outlet. The servers waved us down and I was like yessss been wanting to try this place out. We were only trying to get a small meal but boy the super pascadilla platter looked so good ! So we got 2 beers along with the meal. Lemme tell you our server was probably one of the best I've seen in my restaurant life. He puts a lot of servers around the world to shame. The food was great. Even thought we didn't finish it all we took it to go. The beers was amazing. After trying all 3 in the area. I'd say this place beats out mextreme and Mariano any day.

Fuego De Mar - Roasted whole fish

Clanking all evening But not their fault. The food made it worth it! We truly enjoyed all the food, ever we had was absolutely amazing!! The bread was a treat and nice & light. The best night for a holiday dinner. Thank you!!!

Fuego was indeed fuego (sorry). I was craving a roasted whole fish and the version that they do…read morehere was flavorful and a substantial portion, stuffed with spinach and some sort of foam drizzled over veggies, with perfect crispy skin. I would've liked the actual meat of the fish to be more tender (it bordered on overcooked) but still I walked away plenty satisfied. It does have lots of tiny bones. Bread basket came with the most delicious roasted eggplant in oil, I could've eaten just that with the bread and been a happy camper. The roasted octopus was not bad but a touch too heavy on the sauces for me, I would've wanted more of the flavor of the octopus on its own. The potatoes under the octopus, however, were perhaps my favorite part of the whole meal. Everyone else seemed happy with their food - the catch of the day (with the fluffiest mashed potatoes) was a very popular choice. If you're sick of seafood, they have steak and braised brisket on their menu. Really cozy and romantic ambiance as well for if you want to dress up slightly. This place gets very popular for good reason; I liked the little bar counter they set up out front so you can watch the grilling in action.

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.

With its all glass walls, the space was elegant and inviting. The kitchen was all glass so you can see the chefs preparing the food. We didn't have reservations, but the hostess found us a great table. Our main server was Alejandro and he was more than helpful in making sure we ordered what we wanted. With Italian food, I also prefer very good Italian wine versus a cocktail. He pointed me to 2 red wines that were bold and heavy as I requested. Both were just OK, but expensive. Wines by the bottle was ridiculously high. Regardless, he was great in steering me to the type of dishes more suited to what I was asking for and not just the most expensive. This restaurant has been highly recommended by my brother and sister in law for years. They had told us it was one of the best Italian food they have had anywhere. But, In its previous location, it just looked a bit stuffy for a CANCÚN vacation meal. At its new location, though it was still upscale, it seemed more approachable to us somehow. We just came back from a 10 day vacation at the Amalfi coast, and Rome, Italy. We found the pastas at Cenacolo to be comparable if not better. We had bruschetta, Ragu spaghetti, lasagna, and their chocolate soufflé. We had read that the soufflé was outstanding so we ordered 2. We were NOT disappointed with any of the food items.

It's definitely on the more upscale side of things and most of the menu is in Spanish and service was all in Spanish but you should be able to get what you want. The ambiance is a slightly dimly lit bar and the food prices are definitely higher than most places here but it's worth it. Tostada de atun (Tuna Tostada): 10/10 Very good fish. Has a very steak-like texturre and delicious. Quesadilla langosta (Lobster Quesadilla): 10/10 Lovely! My friend ordered it and it was fantastic. Price is fairly high since it's more upscale but was creamy and meaty. Raviolli Langosta (Lobster Ravioli): My friend ordered 4 Tacos but since most of them had shrimp and I'm allergic I didn't have those, but it was good according to them.
