Greeted and seated. Great ambiance surrounding. Service was prompt. Ordered beverages and went straight to the menu. Ordered octopus tacos, large octopus and assorted Appetizers. All did not dissapoint. We received a small show on adding fire to the octopus which I found entertaining. Crispy and tender. Overall, this place had good food and Service. Seafood at it's best. Good place to eat. read more

There are a lot of seafood options on the boardwalk of Progreso. Don't take my word for which one is the best, but I trust my nieces with their choice. My nieces frequent Chichi regularly and they like it. This is a seafood restaurant with extensive menu with meat and other options. If you're a vegan like me, you'r options are limited but not impossible. The bay windows open and if you're seated by them you have a grandiose view everything going on the boardwalk and the beach. If you didn't want to eat in the restaurant but wanted to eat on the beach under a Palapa - thatched umbrella dining table, and if there was space available, the Palapa it is. The service is slightly slow but for a Saturday afternoon it's expected with a full dining room. There are make shift box fans spread out in the dining area and each table is equipped with mosquito fan and a purse stand. As a vegan, I ordered the guacamole minus cheese and minus Chicharrones. The guacamole was fresh and the habanero salsa options at the table SLAP!! There were four options with the black one - fiery spicy but had a tremendous amount of flavor. Even though it's fiery spicy it's not overbearing for me. The rice and fried banana plate needed to be clarified before final ordering but I was told that there was not any animal products in my dish. The SOL cerveza was ice cold and was continually replenished. The rice and fried banana plate arrived and it was good not great but good. Everyone else's dishes and were plated with care. My nieces enjoyed their dishes as well. Can Chichi be a tourist trap ? Maybe but we were a party of 7 with apps, entrees, drinks, and deserts for $200. All in all it was a great Saturday lunch that left us full for the rest of the. read more

Totally over rated. Prices ridiculous, just because it's by the sea. Two small soups, a beer and a mineral water for $49. And the soups were nasty, we were there on Christmas day, it was busy, they took an hour to get 2 soups. read more

We walked in and was seated right away. The service is good but a lot of drama within the 10 minutes we got there. The chandelier fell and crashed onto the ground. Then a man choked on his food and another guest did the Heimlich maneuver and saved him. The police that looked like sway came thru in 5 minutes. We then received our drinks, salmon salad, and half dozen fresh oysters. I kind of regretted it because it didn't look cooked and I recall my professor warning students about eating raw oysters outside of the western countries. It didn't look the same as those I'm used to, so we tried a couple and stopped. Pretty sure everything was ok, but better safe than sorry! read more

Hands down worst food I've ever had in my life. Ordered the fish tacos - fried fish tacos. Inedible. More bread than fish - super greasy and oily. No way they were fresh. So soggy, you can tell they had been sitting there for a while. They brought me some ostiones - the sauce was great, the ostiones were awful. Super chewy I couldn't eat not even one. Two meals paid for inedible. Both. The only good thing they had was their pineapple juice and the guacamole. What a waste of money. Don't bother coming here. Below subpar food. Uno de los peores restaurantes de mi vida. La comida es terrible. Ahorre su tiempo y su dinero y vaya a cualquier otro lugar. La comida es terrible. Estoy rezando no me enferme. Ni es fresca ni de calidad. Los precios son increíbles por la pésima calidad de comida que están sirviendo. Que fraude. read more

This place combines traditional Yucatecan food with seafood dishes found in the Mexican Pacific Coast. It's delicious and the portions are huge. We had an aguachile as an appetizer. It was pretty good, but not our favorite dish. The polcanes filled with shrimp and the grilled octopus were amazing. In fact, this is the best grilled octopus I've ever had, and I order this dish every time I see it. The coconut flan was the perfect dessert to end our meal. Will definitely come back. If you want to avoid the crowds get there early, preferably before 1pm. This place is far away from downtown Merida, and not a popular spot. But the food is worth the trip. read more
