Great spot! The seafood here is fresh and tasty. I tried the cerviche with shrimp, very acidic and refreshing, tasty goodies but maybe not on an entirely empty stomach. I was glad there were chips and I also ordered guacamole so they paired well together. It's recommended by locals to us, and sure didn't disappoint. It looks like a hip spot. Lots of decors that are cool. read more

Pescaditos - Cerviche, guac, chips; shrimp and rice (modified for special diet) - Seafood Near Me - Cancún, ROO

While on a recent trip to Cancun, I wanted to try some of the local seafood from the city. After receiving a recommendation about Pescaditos from both locals and tourists, I had to give it a try. The restaurant is conveniently located a short walk from Mercado 28 with plenty of treats and souvenirs. Service was friendly and spoke English, so I never felt pressured to speak in broken Spanish. The menu was also conveniently printed in both English and Spanish, and the prices were very reasonable. I ended up ordering the fish tacos, the beer-battered shrimp, and the fish and shrimp ceviche. The beer-battered shrimp was made with large, juicy shrimp coated in the crispy batter. The ceviche was very fresh without any scents of fishiness. The serving sizes of all the plates were very generous. The highlight of the meal would have to be the fried fish tacos. I was expecting battered fish fried and served on a corn tortilla; however, Pescaditos takes it to the next level. The fish is cut into bite-sized pieces with their salsa and deep-fried in the taco shell, making for a crunchy taco with a juicy interior. It's definitely unique and a meal that I will remember. Pros: Fast, friendly service and very accessible for English-speakers. Menus and staff are able to communicate in English. Portions and prices are very reasonable, and the food itself is very fresh. Cons: None read more

Great pescadilla (fish) and jaibadilla (blue crab) tacos! The platter of camarones cooked in garlic sauce were delicious. We loved their pan de elote (Mexican sweet corn bread with ice cream) for dessert! Our nice server Huber provided excellent service. You can take the 24 hour R2 bus from the hotel zone to the Mercado 28 then walk 0.6 miles here. Bus fare is 12 pesos (one way) from the hotel zone to downtown Cancun and make sure to use small bills. You will need to walk over to the major intersection of Tulum and Coba Avenues to catch an R1 bus back to the hotel zone (second bus stop next to the Chedraui grocery store and directly in front of the Chinese restaurant). read more

Pretty good restaurant for some seafood in Cancun. I love the ceviche here, lots of seafood and taste delicious. We order the one with shrimp, fish, and octopus. The blue crab taco has very unique taste as well. The fried fish stick is normal. They have live music at night and service is really good. read more

Pescaditos - Pescadito (beer battered fish stick) Jaibadilla (Carribean blue crab taco) Ceviche - Seafood Near Me - Cancún, ROO

Pescaditos has the best hardshell fish tacos I've ever had! Definitely coming back to get these again. They have great guacamole and salsa too. If you're in the area, I'd highly recommend trying Pescaditos. read more

Great little fish shack in the heart of downtown Cancun. It's Mexico so it basically goes without saying that the staff are very friendly and attentive. Over multiple days I had the pescaditos- beer battered fish, pescadillas- fish tacos, jabadilla- Caribbean blue crab taco, and chile relleno de camarón. The chile relleno was a bit greasy for my liking so I probably wouldn't repeat but it was still very good. Everything else was excellent and you can tell that it's quality fresh fish and not some frozen garbage. read more

We visited here a lifetime ago in early March, before the COVID-19 pandemic. "Pescaditos" are fish sticks in Spanish, and of course they're on the menu! But they have so many other good things here too: shrimp various ways, soups, crab tacos, stuffed jalapeños, ceviches of different seafoods and pastas. There are some vegetarian options on the menu. The atmosphere is casual and the place has a music theme (there's a photo of Frank Zappa near the restroom and there's a "Pescaditos" mural that looks curiously like the cover of Pink Floyd's 'The Wall'). When we ate here for dinner, they had live entertainment too. The food is delicious, the service is very good and the prices are inexpensive. The menu is in Spanish and English. I can't wait to come back. For what it is, it deserves 5 stars. read more

I like Pescaditos a lot because of the simplicity of this restaurant and the seafood heavy menu. The restaurant is spacious with a few inside tables and a lot of outside seating which was good for me because I like to people watch as I enjoy a meal by myself. It is tucked away down a street in downtown Cancun and I would probably return. You basically seat yourself. I went when it was not that busy for a quick casual dinner. I was craving shrimp so I ordered the chile relleno stuffed with shrimp and cream cheese as well as a dozen fried shrimp that was served with plenty of limes. The food was good, hot, and plentiful. Service was A-OK. It could have been a little cleaner. I didn't stay long. read more

LOVE this place!! We stumbled upon this place while walking around near Market 28. It was pretty packed with alot of locals, so we thought the locals must know something we don't. We got a table outside in the patio area. The restaurant does not have A/C inside or outside, only fans, and so it's really hot even with the fan on full blast. We ordered 2 types of ceviche and some fish tacos. We ordered a grande mixto ceviche and it was PERFECT!!! LOVE LOVE it! The oyster ceviche was also amazing, we got a full bowel of oysters for a very reasonable price! LOVE it! The fish tacos were really tasty too, full of fish and pretty large. Our meal came out to be $18usd, and everything was delicious! Service was superb, came back to check on us often. They even packed us our leftover in a nice bag with extra chips!! So AWESOME!! Next time we are in Cancun, we are definitely coming back! Highly recommend!! read more

Beware... Perhaps it was just this location, but I would highly recommend not eating here if you can... Perhaps it was just the food that we ordered... The place was smelly, tables were sticky and it felt a little off. Since the reviews were so positive, we gave it a chance. My partner arrived during the lunch time and there was absolutely no one there... We ordered some fried fish tarros, shrimp tarros and a fried jalapaneo pepper with cream cheese. There was also a side of chips and sauces that came with it. Perhaps we should have gone with the ceviches as none of it was particularly good. We were also not in the mood to drink and perhaps that would have made the food taste better. In addition to the let down of food items, the whole restaurant smelled a little off. It is as if there was rotting fish or seafood coming from the kitchen. This is a chain restaurant so it is possible that this was just not a good location. There are so many other restaurants in the area that have higher quality food. Grade: F read more

This restaurant is tourist friendly with everything in the menu translated to English. You will find mexican tourists here as well so generally the food is good! For a single person, expect to spend around 50+ pesos for food and 35 pesos for a beer. Go for: quick service, translated menu, average pricing Don't go for: cheap mexican eats read more

It's a good seafood restaurant. Try the grilled shrimp. Prices are reasonable and sometimes they have music in the evenings.

Looking for a cheap and quick meal with no gimmicks, Pescaditos is your spot. My boyfriend and I had dinner with drinks for under 20 USD. Order the FRIED SHRIMP - you won't be disappointed. Also, try the add-ons to your beer, FUN! read more

Highlights: - Great prices - Great food - No crazy drink specials as far as I could tell We came to Pescaditos for lunch on the last day of our trip and my biggest regret has been not finding it sooner. It was the best meal we had the entire time we were there, consisting of a few different "dillas" (fried meat pockets?), one crab one shrimp and one fish alongside the titular pescadito (fried fish stick?) Every dilla was packed full of delicious, flavorful meat for no more than 30MXN each. They were fried on the outside which was unique, but none of it was overcooked giving it a crisp exterior with a juicy interior. Next time I visit, I'll be sure to make it my first stop! read more

Our Airbnb hosts recommended Pescaditos to my boyfriend and I and we are so happy to have eaten here. Amazing, cheap, authentic food. We came back twice. The first night they happened to have an event so there was no live music, but the second night we went there was someone playing the guitar and singing. The open air sitting area and music was something we loved. As for the food, the fried camarones (shrimp) are absolutely amazing, along with the stuffed pepper. The fish soup also had so many layers to it, with the fish and the spice working very well together. Everything was so fresh and cooked wonderfully. My boyfriend was ambivalent towards Mexican food when we first got here, but after Pescaditos, we have fallen in love! read more

I had looked this place up on yelp as I just arrived off of a bus and had walked a mile with a heavy backpack to get here because it was the nearest recommended ceviche and I was craving it :) The food was excellent and the service was great. And the manager was all smiles and Good vibes, maybe he is the owner. When I went to pay the bill I realized I had lost my visa credit card at Chichen Itza which is a beautiful historical place to visit. Luckily they waitress said they accepted pay in US dollars. As I sat there realizing I only had 150 pesos and only $100 in cash I thought since they accept US dollars maybe he can exchange this hundred dollars for me so I can have money to pay for taxi to the airport and whatever else I may need while I figure out my dilemma....since I wasn't staying in Cancun for more than 3 more hours. He obliged but then when he gave me the money he only gave me $1700mxn when at least he could've given mean 1900 to 2000 which is the rate. When I asked for a little bit more he scolded me and said we are a restaurant what do you think we are a bank??? It was just interesting how fake nice he was before. But literally I'm a girl traveling alone I just lost my only credit card that is excepted in Mexico and he starts to treat me like this. It did not feel nice and welcomed anymore. Since I had found them on yelp I was going to give a beautiful review of this place but he just left a bad taste in my mouth. He pretty much charged me $10 to "help me" which is a lot when you've just realized you're not sure how your going to get more money for the rest of the trip. Thanks bro. read more

A wonderful place to eat. Filled with locals, but welcoming to visitors. The food was delicious and without a massive wait. Lots to see, if you're into people watching. The bill was fairly priced and if you're European, cheap. read more

This place is great. Arguably some of the best tacos I've ever had. Highly recommend the pork belly. My GF loves the cauliflower tacos. I mean if you come to Hol-box and don't go to this place you made a huge mistake!!!! read more

It was very goo. I recommend The shrimp tacos. It was very friendly, service does take a bit but overall very good.

Really good Mexican style seafood restaurant! Entrees are less than 200 pesos and everything on the menu is delicious, especially the 40 pesos fish soup! It's not too far from the hotel zone just take R2 and get off around market 28. Recommend fish soup, oyster ceviche, fried beer battered shrimp and their fish tacos!! Cocktail is cheap and delicious too. read more

3.5*** It pains me to give this place less than 4 because the service was fantastic! It was our first night in downtown Cancun and we wandered here for a low key dinner. The atmosphere was great! It was lively and definitely chill. Our waiter was super friendly! Probably the best service I've gotten anywhere! I had the baked fish and we also got the taco. They are a bit different than your regular soft tacos, these are hard. Thought that they were ok. I also had the fish soup which was good. This was a meh kinda place though, as we have definitely tasted better. read more

The first time we tried to dine here, the doors were open and staff was there, but no one would come out of the back to acknowledge us. Annoying. So we ate at a nearby restaurant, but I couldn't convince myself not to try again. The second time we went back, we ordered ceviche, shrimp cocktail, a michelada, and beer. The shrimp cocktail and michelada are going to be different than most people are used to, because they use bitter orange, making it a bit sweeter than a completely tomato base. The shrimp cocktail and michelada blew me away, though! Next time I'm in town, I'm definitely stopping here. Despite what the menu says, they do take cards. read more

Came here on a Sunday night. The ceviche was so good we had to come back. When we returned on a tuesday night around 9 they had some great live music. We ordered the squid ink pasta with shrimp, several orders of fish tacos, a large ceviche mixto, a couple pescaditos, and their loaded cocktail of shrimp octopus oyster and fish. All the food was great and the owner and the staff were all friendly. If you come try the Chaya con pina and limon, its an awesome refreshing drink to fight off the heat. Make sure to also check out 'Las palapas' down the street heading east. Its the place locals go to so you know its good! read more

You gotta get the shrimp coctail here. It's delish! Also the pescapas! Which are the potato wedges. The cheladas and the margaritas are nicely served and refreshing without being stingy on the alcohol. We loved the shrimp ceviche too. Wish I had taken pictures of everything before chowing down but take my word for it. Looks good and taste even better. Also ambiance was nice in the evening when the live musician went on. He sings a lot of good songs. Both in English and Spanish. Service and pricing was all good. Can't complain at all, plus it's close to Parque Las Palapas where you can take the kids just a block over to play and the food venders are the perfect spot to find desserts! read more

A hit and a miss. Read this place was good so tried it out. Ordered beer, onion rings, fish taco and beer battered shrimp. The onion rings were a bit greasy, kind of average. The shrimp were great, nice and big with a crispy batter and a large order satisfied the two of us. The fish taco sucked bad, it was deep fried with a piece of pre-deep fried fish inside it. The thing was held together with tooth picks which I almost choked on. That is not the worst, the fish was off could not even force it down, had to leave it. The server we had must of been the manager, took our order brought the food then disappeared! Left us high and dry! I would go back for the shrimp only, everything else was disappointing. read more

The food was fantastic. We had a guacamole and a ceviche for the table. Both outstanding. The sopa de mariscos was very tasty. The best main course was camarones al gusto in garlic. All the drinks were large and really good. This place is a real FIND! The service is incredible too!!! read more

Excellent little seafood restaurant in the Centro district of Cancun. This roadside restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating for excellent evening meals.
