Still an absolute treat! My most recent visit was this week with a couple of friends. We were there…read moreearly afternoon and got a great table before the restaurant filled up to capacity. The colourful table cloths and breeze off the bay make for a very nice setting. The wait staff is very gracious and tries as hard to speak English as we do to speak Spanish. We feel welcome. We enjoyed a frozen margarita, a mojito, and a refreshing chelada; all were delish! We shared a plate of oysters a la diablo, which were not my favourite. Other styles of the oysters are more complementary while the diablo overpowered the delicate shellfish. The filet fish was tender and delectable with a small mound of fried dried shredded Chile pepper that had a sweet aftertaste. It was served with rice, macaroni salad, and a luscious mixed salad. The seafood torta stole the day; we all took a taste and decided we'd get that next time. It came with a mixed salad and something else, maybe... we were in love with this egg pancake thick with shrimp, fish, and other seafood delectibles. Last time I was crazy about the sea-and-land kebabs and almost got them again, but decided on the alhambres instead, also the sea-and-land style. Oh My Goodness! Quickly sautéed with diced onions and sweet peppers, it was the bomb! I ate it with tortilla chips and needed nothing else. And there were leftovers that lasted less than a few minutes once I got home and my husband smelled them. This place is always high on my list when visiting Chetumal and a place I love to take friends.

On our visit, they were only accepting Mexican pesos and no cards. We had just enough cash to buy us entry. A few things did disappoint me though. The amount of people who decided to step on the stromatolites was very aggravating, and I wish they had some guards to help enforce this. I also was disappointed that they played nothing but American club music. I wish they had played more local music. I highly recommend the visit, but PLEASE be respectful to the delicate stromatolites.

The staff is so nice and will work very hard to make sure you have an enjoyable experience, so do communicate your preferences and needs to them. A few notes: there aren't vegetarian options on the menu lunch/dinner (for breakfast there are some great vegetarian items). I would recommend visiting somewhere else in Bacalar if you are vegetarian. However, the kitchen will make adjustments to items or create a vegetarian dish upon request, so if you're a vegetarian staying at the hotel for a night or two and don't want to go all the way to the centro, you can find something.
