Beers were cheap/free, mangonada was tasty, the gobernador tacos were fantastically cooked, and the octopus stole the whole show. The service was very attentive and the ambiance is great, because you're on a beach. How could you beat that? Just at the end of the cruise pier, it's not super easy to get to because you have to take a bus/taxi back and forth, but it's not too far. Pro tip, don't uber back to the port, they won't let you.

Don't expect red lobster comfort like cheddar biscuits and speedy service. What you will get is the freshest octopus in all of the Yucatan. It was swimming along earlier in the day but got pulled up in time to end up on your lunch plate. The other fish and shrimps in the ceviches are good too, but they are transported here from other parts of Mexico like Ensenada in Baja (1000 miles away). The pulpo is the star of this show. They make it 8 different ways. Try it al ajillo which is a garlic saute. Delcious!!

A friend from Merida recommended El Toro for seafood. What do I think about the restaurant? - Let's…read moresay I am no longer friends with the guy who recommended this place. The old saying states: "You always get what you pay for." However, we paid around 65 (Dollars) for two soups, a fish fillet, and a small lobster tail. This is the worst seafood soup I have ever had in my life. How is that even possible, being so close to the sea? I do not know. Yes, the fault is mine because I should have waited to see what the local people were getting, which was fried fish. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this place, and I do not think I will give a second chance. There are other options on the Malecon; I would try those next time.
