    Dumplings were the best thing we had
    Rachel O.

    I really wanted to have a better experience here than I did 6 years ago...nope. We were one of two tables. The other table had 4 females. We watched the owner sit at that table and flirt. Kind of a bummer that he didn't care about the entire restaurant or the food that was coming out. The food was less than mediocre based on prices, but our server was great. This will be our last time dining here. Nothing was impressive, and everything was way overpriced.

    One of our favorite restaurants on the island! The restaurant itself is in a romantic garden setting, and the food is so fresh and reasonably priced. We always get the mixed grill for two, it's an amazing combination of grilled meats, veggies, and seafood. Also has the brownie, which is home made by the owner, and it was phenomenal. You can't miss this restaurant!

    Visited Límon's on a recent girls trip to Isla Mujures. Great experience and definitely recommend. The chef/owner Sergio stopped by our table to greet us and give us a rundown of the menu which was a very nice personal touch. The food was delicious. Our favorites include: Hibiscus egg rolls, Shrimp Soup, Coconut Shrimp, and the fish. Not pictured is the Bananas Foster which was delicious as well. Would not recommend the chicken as it was a bit dry and the mussels while tasty had a bit too much cheese, so if you order suggest requesting light cheese. Overall great experience and will be returning on my next trip to the island.

    Four of us had dinner here in a Friday night only because the restaurant we were going to eat at was closed. Very nice service and location, cash only (like many of the local restaurants). The owner introduced himself and spoke about the specials and his love of cooking. Service was fast and we did not feel rushed. The eating area is small and dark...not great of you're looking for views. The food was delicious: cilantro chicken, avocado salad, caprese tower, chicken satay and mixed grill for 2....our party of four all agreed the food and service were excellent! We had already eaten at many other good restaurants in the last 7 days, this was the priciest but in our collective agreement, worth it. Our bill came to $105 US (before tip) , 3 bottled waters, one beer, a mojito and a glass of wine..

    Chicken satay - absolutely delicious!

    We have been to Isla 8 times and this was our first time at limon. All I can say is WOW it was amazing! Our food was delicious! We cannot wait to go back to this hidden gem!

    I wasn't even hungry but I've never ate food so hungrily before.... Price is good, service is great, and chef is amazing!! On the island, this is probably considered a 5-star restaurant. Food pic: Mixed grill

    Pineapple Foster and Zoey - she loved it!
    Matthew O.

    Absolutely amazing experience. The food and service were both superb. The pineapple dessert was one of the best things ever. Sergio and staff were all on point in this slower night. Wish the wine list was expanded... Because my ribeye was out of this world and deserved something bigger to go with.

    Delicious meat

She was walking us a little towards the back, but since it was my first time to Isla, I wanted to people-watch, so I asked about a table up front. As soon as we headed over, I saw why she passed it - it was right next to the saxophone player! Thank goodness his volume level was perfect! Just loud enough to be heard over the crowds walking down the 'lane' out front and the restaurant diners' chatting. But not so loud that we 3 couldn't chat. We loved it! Now these two can EAT - and love to try everything on the menu, whereas I tend to eat smaller portions. I ordered the shrimp tacos and they were fantastic - huge pieces of shrimp, so good! The lobster mac n cheese is so good, I would have loved to bring a big container of it home with me! The restaurant is very busy but very clean and tables are well organized for maneuvering a quick trip to the restroom before leaving. Our server, Maylen was attentive and pleasant. The bar area, facing the street, looked like a lot of fun, I'll have to try it next time!

And the saxophone player walked up to them played for them. That looked pretty nice. We sat next to the bar and there were some obnoxious gringos at the bar while we were there... which is common on the north side of the island.

    Vegan. In Puerto Morelos?! Sí!!…read more After getting a flat on a bike, we dropped it off and walked a few places over and found this wonderful gem of a restaurant. Locals love it as much as we did; we ran into a couple of them that we met during our stay. The food is delicious!

On the day I went I got potatoes, zucchini, and something soy and spicy. What a great meal in a local place with wonderful people.

You can chose between a large plate for 80 pesos (I think) which includes soup, 3 choices of mains, rice , beans & desert. The smaller plate is only 50 pesos with 2 choices of main & no soup but with desert. Black beans & fresh handmade tortillas are served on the side. I chose mushrooms & soy chorizo as my mains. My husband got tempeh pork, zucchini & cactus for his mains. See pics! Both also come with agua Fresca. We had guava & lemon ginger which were both delicious & refreshing. We both enjoyed our meals. It was such a great price for so much food too! The family running the restaurant were super friendly & attempted English as we did Spanish so that we were able to communicate easily. I will definitely return!

    Wow! The biggest ripoff in the island. Overpriced and undervalued. The service started great but…read morethey were not busy, as soon as more guest came, the service became slow and forgetful. Missing items we requested and having to ask a few times. The place looks nice and open with two levels. They are supposedly a "market" but it's a restaurant and a pier stop. People with their boast can come in. They have showers as well. We order the grouper (fish) and 1 dozen of oysters on the half shell. The fish came with the choice of rice, pasta or steamed vegetables. We decided to do the whole fish and get one filet out. I'm originally from an island so eating a whole fish is normal so I wanted to experience it again because back home where we live we don't have it. The fish was ok. It needed more flavor. Rice was hard and cold and not really tasty. The oysters were harder than usual. We ordered two of their Marbella sunrise (drinks) and they were good. Overall the food was NOT good or fresh. It made me sick! I got food poisoning. At the end of our trip in the island I got so sick I was puking on the beach and then walking the streets like a drunk person puking my guts out and not even with a buzz?! No thanks! My final advice? AVOID at all cost because what you will be missing here is your money from your wallet. Nothing special. Save your money and go somewhere else.

    Awful. Definitely not worth $221.00. The stone crab was so tuff you couldn't eat it. My husband…read moresent it back and they still charged him $21 for the 1 piece he tried to eat. The other 2 items we Ordered were sub-par fried rice and 6 shrimp. Not worth it at all! Very disappointed in this place.
