Went here on a recommendation and do not regret it!! The seafood was so good and fresh! Highly recommend the ceviche and the seafood soup. Can't wait for our trip back to Tulum to eat here again! read more

Amazing Seafood! For appetizer I recommend the coconut shrimp. We ordered a variety of aguachile, shrimp cocktail, and ceviches. The shrimp and fish tacos were also delicious. They have a big selection of salsas they bring to the table and you must try them all! We have two toddlers and they have the cutest little children's area with toys that kept my kids entertained while we waited for our food. Definitely recommend!! It was our favorite restaurant we visited on our trip! read more

We had an amazing lunch here. Everything on the table was delicious. The price isn't outrageous like the many other Tulum restaurants. They are seafood centric and everything tasted super fresh. The original fish and shrimp tacos reminded me of Japanese tempura batter which is very lite yet crispy. They excelled with their variety of sauces too. We loved it and definitely be coming back. read more

You must visit this place if you like seafood! We had marlin tacos, tower, tuna taco, and a few other dishes and everything was amazing! The fried fish was a bit bland, so I wouldn't order it there again, but we're definitely coming back for other plates. read more

Sabor de Mar - Tower of mixed seafood - Seafood Near Me - Tulum, ROO

What an amazing restaurant!!! The food is to die for and the ambience is fantastic. They bring out around 8-9 different sauces you can use for your food and they were all incredibly tasty. We also had the pleasure of meeting one of the owners, Mayra, and she was an absolute gem and a very hard working and successful woman. We ordered the Tamborean tower and the Marlin burrito, and I truly wish I had known about this place sooner, I would had come back to eat those dishes again in a heartbeat, but unfortunately we had to go back to our country the next day. I WILL be returning when I come back to Tulum and I encourage everyone to come and enjoy this amazing seafood. read more

After a long night of street food crawl, I requested to my boyfriend to eat fresh and raw seafood. We went to their smaller location close to Downtown Tulum while walking around. The ambiance and service was top notch, we were very well taken care of a younger gentleman who was our server for the night. Order their micheladas because it paired so well with their food! Their homemade sauces are also a must but some can be very, very spicy. read more

I try to follow the "visit the same restaurant once per trip" rule but I've already been twice here, and plan on coming back at least once more. The fresh ceviche (especially the auguachile) is so damn good here. I've been to a couple other places that serve it the way they do (fresh and raw) but it's just not as good and twice as expensive. The cheese crusted tacos are also a must! Love all of the condiments/sauces that come complimentary too. Note: there are now 2 locations and the newer/bigger location is on Calle Centauro Sur (I believe both are only a couple minute drive from each other). read more

Read about this spot online. Stellar restaurant. Agua purificada for the ice so no worries. Ceviche was fantastic, and the chef included a complimentary seafood brine/soup. Best part was Bruno. He was bilingual and had the best attitude. Super helpful with the menu and very patient. If I return to Tulum and this restaurant I hope he's there again because he made the experience above par. Thanks Bruno! read more

It's a cute, Instagram-inspiring restaurant with a cheerful and open interior with high ceilings. I looked at all the photos before ordering and had to get the tostadas. My favorites were the tuna tostada and the shrimp burrito. I didn't expect much when ordering the burrito, but that was my favorite thing. It was pretty much drenched in this creamy sauce though so that is probably the only thing if I could change anything- to get the sauce on the side. Other than that, the purple cabbage gave it a good crunch and complimented the perfectly seasoned shrimp. The tuna tostadas (and all the other tostadas) come piled high on top of a small tortilla and it tasted fresh and the flavors were nicely balanced with the onions and mangos. Not my favorite- the tostamarlin taco. The presentation was pretty with the slices of avocado on top (with again too much of the creamy sauce all over the tacos) but it was just too heavy for me with the dense marlin fish inside with the whole thing deep-fried. This restaurant is on the second floor, so be prepared to walk up some steps! read more

Sabor de Mar - Interior - Seafood Near Me - Tulum, ROO

A excellent choice for seafood on the main strip of centro tulum. It may not have the best atmosphere, but it felt like I was eating like a local rather than a tourist. The fried shrimp original taco here is fantastic! Fresh, crispy, but never soggy from the creaminess of the sauce and avocado. The tortilla also was a good texture and flavor. The Tuna tartare was great, as it was a showcase for how fresh the tuna was. Volcanic tower has some tuna tartare, as well as shrimp and octopus. Delicious in the aguachile that it sits in. They ask if you want it spicy or not spicy which I appreciate. You can't go wrong with this if you want a little of everything! read more

We discovered this hole in the wall in Tulum. What a gem! We ordered the Volcano Tower tostada - piled high with cucumbers, onions, cooked shrimp, fresh tuna, fresh shrimp, and topped with breaded fried shrimp. The chef plating was gorgeous and tasted even better. We also got the marlin taco and the shrimp tacos which were also very tasty. Very generous portion size as well. Only 1 waiter for 6 tables but service was welcoming and fine. Glad we can experience authentic food experience in Tulum. Will definitely return when we're in town. read more

Sabor de Mar was the seafood back street secret I was looking for. My friend gave me the tip on the place and I could not have been happier. I arrived between lunch and dinner time. There was a couple tables outside. The waiter was enjoying his lunch when he spotted me. He quickly came over to seat me. I like a New Yorker attempted to sit on the sunny side. The waiter insisted I not fry and sit on the shady side. I took his advise since I'm the palest Latina that ever was. It was a smart move. I heard the ceviches were too die for. The fried shrimp taco looked delicious. I ordered the seafood ceviche and one taco. The guy went over all the hot sauces, special mayos and other squeeze bottles of goodness. I was a little overwhelmed but happy at the same time. He brought over a basket of tostadas that served as chips. The ceviche came first and it was a mini tower of fresh flavors. The fish with the cucumbers was just what I wanted in the heat. Then came my taco. Wow! The spicy mayo with the perfectly fried shrimp and homemade tortilla was what the doctor ordered. I downed my meal with a fresh, huge glass of cucumber Agua Fresca. I don't know how these are not a thing in America. The place filled up as I devoured my meal. Also I noticed there's pictures of the menu items on the wall. If you need a visual. I ended up ordering a second shrimp taco. It's not everyday you can snag a fresh tortilla and perfectly fried shrimp. I loved this spot. read more

Cash only! But well worth it in value and flavor. Sabor de Mar is a little casual eatery off the main road (307). The helpful photos hanging on the walls and in the menu helped with picking what to order. For a party of 2, we got: 1. A smoked marlin taco (served warm and grilled, almost like a quesadilla) 2. A classic fish taco (actually came with two pieces of fried fish and two corn tortillas, so it was easily split into two less-ful tacos for easier sharing) 3. Giant Tamborean tower (a large seafood tower filled with fish, shrimp, octopus) with fried chips as the vehicle to scoop the seafood in your mouth All this for roughly $15 USD. It was tasty and filling and it was especially fun to try all of the different salsas from the tray. My favorite two were the mango and mint (super mild and fresh) and habenero (extremely hot) together. I think we could have done without the tacos and maybe gotten two towers, as that was the highlight. Would highly recommend a visit here if you want seafood. read more

Sabor de Mar quickly became my favorite spot in downtown Tulum after my first visit. I ended up going back twice during my stay because the fried tacos were just too good. Their marlin is seasoned SO well and tastes amazing in the fried tacos. The original battered shrimp tacos were also delicious. Some other items I tried include the tostada and shrimp burrito - which were also yummy but the stars are for sure the marlin fried tacos and battered shrimp tacos. They also have a great variety of sauces but their house spicy mayo and habanero sauces were the best ones. If you're looking for a great local seafood spot, definitely check out Sabor de Mar! read more

Fresh, delicious fare with comfortable open air seating and very reasonable prices. I had tacos of shrimp and fish, one each, which came with yellow corn tortillas and a generous pile of fresh grated veggies. I also had agua de pepino y lima, a light and delicious beverage of cucumber and lime. Slightly off the beaten path in downtown Tulúm, this was recommended to me by a local and is a wonderful find. Highly recommend. read more

A local Suggested this place because we got tired of meats and wanted seafood. Outside and inside seating available. Locals were super nice and recommended so many different things but my sister and I went for the safe route and did the fish tacos as well as the shrimp tacos... options to grill and or fry your seafood and of course we went with the fried option. Corn tortilla and only one so it didn't get overwhelming. Fish and shrimp were a decent size and didn't have too much breading. Tons of salsas and hot sauces to choose from they're pretty flavorful and hot so beware. Shrimp Ceviche was ok. I was a bit disappointed with the flavor. Great portion though. They gave us this complimentary soup that was shrimp based. Was interesting and a bit on the salty side but not too bad. Overall a decent joint with decent prices but couldn't say I would go back with so many other options to choose from in Tulum. read more

This is the BEST seafood in all of Tulum. We made a visit to the smaller location twice and both visits were great! Fresh, well presented plates. If your looking for a impressive dish (seafood lovers) order the molcajete for the table!!!! The ceviche *chefs kiss* The tacos very nice and filling! The service is amazing as well, Everyone was welcoming. Good energy and attentiveness towards the customers and so many places lack that due to the tourism! Don't pass this place up read more

Small, tasty spot for seafood in downtown Tulum. The relatively large potion size of the ceviche justifies the price. We ordered it spicy, and loved the hot flavor. The tuna tartare without spice was my favorite. It was delightfully cold and the cucumbers added to its refreshingness. I didn't like the marlin tostada at all, but my bf enjoyed its smoky dried fish flavor. Minus one star because I found two hairs in my food, but I removed those pieces and kept eating because it's Mexico... read more

The best informal seafood in Tulúm. Try the Tuna Tostadas and Shrimp tacos. Amazing!!!

The food was fantastic! I got the Tuna Tostada and two Los de Pescado, both were amazing. Even though I ordered two tacos, they were so big that they came with two tortillas each. It's not a super "cute" atmosphere, but the food was fantastic and the waiter was very friendly. read more

This is my 10th restaurant I tried during my 6 week stay in Tulum. I'm only half way into it but honestly let down by the food scene in Tulum. I really wanted to like this place but the food was just ok. I had the seafood tower and fish tacos but neither of them awed me. The tower looks good but the sauce just didn't do it for me. It had a weird sweet, tangy taste. Just fresh lime and salt /salsa would have been perfect. The highlight of the meal was the chips and salsa. The service was great. read more

On a beautiful HOT HOT Sunday, we ended up at Sabor De Mar. Ordered: Grilled Fish Fillet in an guajillo-chile sauce served with salad and rice Gobernador Taco - smoked marlin Los de camaron - shrimp taco Los de pescado - fish taco Everything tasted amazing, especially the grilled fish fillet in the gaujillo-chile sauce. Really enjoyed it. They definitely take care in making the food. One point to note, it is very hot in the restaurant. There are only fans and it's open to the road so the heat is a little unbearable. It was really hot in mid-October too so please be careful and drink lots of water. I only say this because my mom had a heat-related issues afterwards. It's not because of this restaurant but something to keep in mind if you do have issues with heat. The food is fantastic! Perhaps going later in the day or in the evening is a better option or sitting right in front of a fan is another. Cash only! read more

Absolutely worth your time! I would have given 5 stars but our friend got the volcano tower and the sauce was a bit overwhelming (soy). The fish was fresh, some of the best weve had.
