I had a local tequila and a local beer that were both excellent. The fish soup appetizer was a meal, as noted/advised by my server. But I also had grilled shrimp which were perfectly grilled and delicious, as were the side order of mashed potatoes that came with it. Latte was tasty but needed to be hotter, and I just wasn't up for asking my server to take it back and heat it more. Overall, a fantastic dining experience at a reasonable price in my opinion.

What youre really paying for a view of the beach.

I ended up here because my tour guide had this place scouted out for our celestun day trip. I wish I had more control over where I was going to eat, but thats what I get for not asking hard questions before we go on our trip. If you like the beach, then of course its beautiful scenery. The tables are actually in sand and the straw awnings covering you is the restaurant "interior". The Pina colada is mostly just coconut cream. Not much else flavor came from it. The mango daiquiri was ok as well, where it felt like a muted mango popsicle and that's it. I don't expect artisan mixologist here, but their drinks are a weak point. The crab empanadas are quite dense in breading. The crab is fresh, but it wasn't as flavorful as I would have expected. The mixed seafood cocktail was great! A bunch of fresh seafood is a thick tomato sauce that wasnt heartburn inducing. They could have used less pepper, but overall it was my favorite part of the meal. The shrimp mojo de Ajo was good, but they barely give you any shrimp. The bland rice and steamed veggies they serve soak up the extra mojo de Ajo sauce, but it's ultimately filler. Id say this was the biggest rip off I had portion wise. Our server was fine, but they were pretty spaced out for most of the meal. I had to walk over to him and flag him down since he wasn't paying attention to once we ended the meal. Im more upset that our tour guide thought this was a good place. Its OK if you choose the right things, but theres alot of mediocre items on the list. Id say order the seafood cocktail or try somewhere else.
