This place is absolutely gorgeous! It has amazing views of the ocean and the perfect sunset! The food and drinks were also wonderful! And honestly, anything you ordered will be good! We also tried a lot of their drinks and they were tasty as well! The staff were attentive and very helpful.
We came back here after two years break on Cozumel. It's as lovely as i remembered. We made reservation for 6:30 pm on a Thursday night, and when we walked onto the terrace, the lady told us our table is the most inside one beside the wall, and i saw one open table beside the railing, so i asked. Eventually we got that table. The view is gorgeous and food is amazing as usual.
We have eaten here several Times and this year decided to celebrate our anniversary. I have to say the food is Amazing, the venue is gorgeous and that in itself Makes it all worthwhile! Service was so so,but I will always go back.. it is not that they are not friendly they just aren't as attentive or warm ( almost feels As if it is rehearsed And almost missed the sunset trying to get their attention to get our bill , etc ) but other than that, this is definitely a must when coming to Cozumel!!! If you want to see a sunset, and have some amazing food, this is the place to go!
Wow... What can I say other than amazing. What an incredible venue, menu, and experience. This is an owner ran restaurant and the passion speaks through the food. 10/10, if you come to cozumel and don't try Buccanos then you haven't experienced the island. We ordered the lobster tostada and the calamari and WOW!! Everything here will challenge your priory pallet and open your mind to new levels of flavor and texture. I ordered the Coffee Catch of They Day and I can happily say it was the best Mahi-Mahi dish I have ever consumed in my entire life.
Remarkable, romantic and elegant restaurant experience. We sat inside as a family of 3 with our sweet little 8 month old. The staff was so accommodating and got us a great little booster chair for her to sit in. The menu was phenomenal which made it very difficult to order! I had the special which was a Mahi mahi - one of my all time favorite meals ever! Hubs had the seafood skewer and loved every single bite. We each had a couple cocktails but my favorite (must try) was the toasted coconut martini and espresso martini post dinner. Come here if you're on the island. It's 1000% worth every penny (or peso). Oh and a little pro tip -- make reservations to sit outside on the balcony and watch the sunset!
This place was absolutely excellent. The weight staff was attentive. The odd thing was that there was no particular person that seemed to be assigned to the table but everyone pitch in to help the lobster Caesar salad was top-notch and I really enjoyed the steak and potatoes after visiting here with my family my birthday I recommended it to everyone I came in contact with at the resort and beyond. Will definitely try again!
We visited here last night for a special dinner to celebrate our 10 year anniversary. The restaurant is out of town and home to a beautiful beachside view. We watched the sunset during our meal. We started with toasted coconut martinis that were delicious. We had the special 3 shot appetizer which had octopus, shrimp, and lobster grilled and each in a different sauce. I'm a huge octopus fan and it was perfectly grilled and in a smoky sauce. All three were delicious. For dinner I had the catch of the day which was mahi-mahi and it was seared in an achiote season and atop a tasty heap of smashed Parmesan potatoes. It was accompanied by a tasty salsa of pecans and jicama, with a fresh chimichurri. My husband had the pasta special. Homemade squid ink black fettuccine with a garlic lemon sauce and filled with seafood. It has octopus, shrimp, fresh fish, and mussels. Both entrees were delicious. The ambiance is romantic and the view is top notch.
The atmosphere...the service...the food...the value always the best. Not to mention the amazing sunset from the outside seating.
This was an easy 5-star rating for me. This restaurant could easily compete with the best restaurants in Boston. I wanted to try one of the nicest restaurants on the island of Cozumel, and it didn't disappoint! I was first impressed by the ambiance and physical building. It is very nicely cared for, meticulously clean, and the design is fresh and beautiful. Someone clearly put a lot of money and care into this building! They have an indoor and outdoor seating area, with a beautiful open kitchen. The staff is incredibly professional and well dressed. They were courteous, knowledgeable, and polite. They also seem to all be bilingual, which is helpful for a gringo like me. Now to the food: It was seriously all so good, such high quality, and clearly so well planned. You can tell that the chef has a lot of experience, and is given much of the control in planning the menu. There is a lot of pride in the food, even the drinks and dessert are creative, fresh and delicious! The house bread alone is worth going to this restaurant for. Even if I had that and nothing else it would have been a good meal. Bravo to this entire establishment; will absolutely be back!
Cranberry martini, never had before and it was delicious. Reminded me of cranberry sauce at Thanksgiving m, but kicked up a notch. Would order again! Also Margarita Alegre was also tasty! Lobster pops-definitely order. Sushi-although good, would pass to get something more unique on the menu. Main special-hazelnut crusted catch of the day with mandarin chimichurri, should have opted for the lobster with miso sauce. Parfait of key lime pie was just ok as I have a favorite key lime pie at a steakhouse in NYC. But still enjoyable. (January 7, 2022)
5 stars for food, service, and ambiance. Reservations highly recommended if sitting outside. Beautiful view of the sunset and cruise ship lights twinkling after dark. Only docking 1 star because it's rainy season and while sitting outside... we had to cut our experience short because of the crazy mosquitos! Apparently there is an abandoned building beside that is a breeding ground for standing water and mosquitos. As soon as the sun set... it was game over, we were eaten alive. So sad because we were really enjoying the meal, service, and romantic atmosphere! Maybe they can fumigate or put citronella candles outside to minimize this? Regardless, we will be back - but during the dry season instead!
Look for the large torch and the knockout setting by the Gulf of Mexico, facing from the island back toward mainland Mexico. This place is definitely a romantic setting. Get here early enough to catch the sunset. This was a fantastic find, on a recent trip to celebrate my birthday, just prior to New Years in Mexico City. After a day of incredible diving in the crystal clear waters around Cozumel, you can settle in here to eat the cousins of the kaleidoscope of sea creatures and plants that you just saw underwater that afternoon. Anything with lobster was amazing. The seafood was all VERY fresh. One of the owners is from Spain, so Spanish seafood paella is particularly good. The setting could just not be more serene or beautiful. There's a large terrace facing the water, and the interior is a gorgeous mix of old and new. The service here was the best of Mexican hospitality. For a very touristy island, the staff was remarkably friendly and willing to talk at length. It genuinely felt like a local family (although one with an amazing large ocean terrace) had invited us to their home to eat. It's easy to find, just take an Uber or a taxi. If you're feeling adventurous you can bike there too. Mosquitoes are a small problem, as in many places in Cozumel. The property was bug spray off to the side of the building where you can freely apply.
What a fantastic place for a nice dinner with family. It would also be a romantic place for a couple. The view of the ocean is stunning and if you're there at the right time, the sunset is unforgettable. The food was fantastic. We started with the Toga Sushi Roll- my husband couldn't believe how good it was. My grandmother and aunt ordered the butter cheese lobster ravioli- rich and creamy! My mother ordered the chicken risotto- after trying a bite of everyone's plate, she thought hers was the best and loved the color presentation. My husband ordered the lobster nachos that looked like a party on a plate with the yellow plantain chips, green avocado, black beans, white lobster and cheese, and salsa. I had the catch of the day, Maui Maui, with coconut risotto. It was sweet and pleasant flavors.

The good- Views of the sunset are amazing. However, we stayed at the Westin and the views are also good from there. The night we went, it was so windy we couldn't sit outside. Service was good. The property is nice. Trees lit up with lights, etc The bad It was very loud in the restaurant. We felt the food was prepared way ahead of time. The lobster ravioli was not warm, one ravioli was actually cold and the pasta was 'hard' in areas like it had sat out. It's like they just put warm sauce over it right before serving. The lobster was very overcooked. I did see other tables order sushi that looked good but unfortunately they only had a spicy tuna roll and I don't like spicy. I'm not sure we'd come back... read more
This place is a treat and a perfect spot for a celebration or nice meal. We were able to call in for a reservation. The views are incredible both from the outside and inside dining areas. Our service was great. Food takes a bit to come out (entrees mainly) but it's so fresh and delicious. I love that they have a dedicated vegan/vegetarian menu that's inventive and has a variety of local and international offerings. The Parmesan bread rolls were dangerously good. So light and pillowy. We tried the Buffalo cauliflower and mushroom appetizers and both were great. Serving sizes were generous. I got the risotto with corn and asparagus and it was delightful. Hubby had the cheese ravioli and really liked it. We enjoyed the passionfruit and pineapple mocktails as well. read more
My friend and I had a wonderful dining experience here. All around, excellent service, food, and atmosphere with a view of the sunset that was beautiful. I had made a Wednesday 7:00 dinner reservation inside because we wanted AC, though they also had a beautiful patio seated area too. When we arrived we were greeted and seating at a table by the window with a view. Our server, Julio was excellent, friendly and attentive, he made our experience very enjoyable. We ordered cocktails. To note: they make great Slightly Dirty Martini and a Lychee Martinis. We were served complementary bread which was so good. We then ordered a few appetizers to share, the Mussels and Fries, Chicken Satay Skewers, and the Crispy Soft Shell Crab. The mussels were excellent, big and cooked perfectly. Chicken satay was good, the peanut sauce served with it was so good. The soft shell crabs were excellent and there were 2 full size crabs, fried to a crunchy perfection. Atmosphere: romantic, high end dining experience. Service: excellent. Food: excellent. read more

Went here during our vacation for dinner. Some guests at the hotel we stayed at said it is walkable but honestly walking down barely lit long street at night wasn't something I was willing to risk with children. So took an overpriced taxi with variable pricing to the restaurant. The food here is largely portioned with fair prices. The mixed cocktails were really good. I personally ordered the seafood skewer and it had large shrimp, octopus, lobster, and swordfish. It was amazing. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. read more

My absolutely most favorite restaurant in Cozumel! Exquisite food, stellar service and superb views. Ask for their best item, even if it's not on the menu... almond crusted giant shrimp. read more

Portion size is like eating in Texas ! So large, well constructed, interesting flavor all exactly like their webpage speaks about. The service was great (Eduardo) and we were super excited that there was an inside with air-conditioning and we could still see the sunset. This season the menu had a lot of fish or ocean-based options, the food was healthy, clean, and enjoyable. We would love to do it during the daytime but really abhor all the cruise ship people, but I will tell you for sunset in the air conditioning with good food this is a hard place to beat. The wine list was eclectic... And did I mention the portion size? We could have ordered one appetizer, one salad, one entrée, one dessert for two and or three people. read more

My family and I had Christmas Eve dinner at Buccanos at Night during our vacation in Cozumel. The restaurant was so beautiful, the service so perfect, the cocktails so refreshing, the wine list so exceptional and the food so unbelievably "WOW!" we had to go back a few nights later for a repeat visit! It was just as good the second time. I've been on a quest to find the best steak in the world and the filet mignon at Buccanos was in the top 3 of all time for me. So good, I had the same entree the second visit too! Buccanos was our favorite beach club in the day on Cozumel and Buccanos at night was our favorite restaurant. I kid you not, we are considering a trip back to the island for the sole purpose of going back to this restaurant for dinner. It's that good. Make your reservation ASAP, you will not be sorry! read more

The service level here was top notch, from the hostess, server to the manger. All made sure our experience was pleasant. The drinks and food were amazing! Can't go wrong with wine but I also recommend trying the green margarita (I think it was called). It's a kiwi margarita with a hint of spice, so good! The lobster mac was my choice for dinner along with a caesar salad. Best lobster Mac I have had anywhere! Talk about an amazing sunset view! I highly recommend this place. Be sure to get reservations a few days in advance. read more

And we found this incredible restaurant the last night on our trip. Had we had found it earlier we would probably have eaten here every night, the food is incredible! Once they sat us they brought a glass of sparkling to celebrate our anniversary, and then from there out the service was fantastic. We had the lobster nachos and the grilled romaine salad with shrimp. Both very different and the flavors were just spot on. And then we shared the mahi-mahi special with the gnocchi which was also incredible. Thumbs up to this very special restaurant for making our third anniversary a lovely evening! We will be back! read more

The food and the service was *outstanding* Do yourself a favor and order the lobster tostadas, they were incredible. Our waiter explained that they use a little bit of coffee in the seasoning, it was a surprising and delicious experience. Like most places in Cozumel, the wine list left a lot to be desired, but the rest of the experience made up for it. read more

I was excited to try out the Buccanos, and overall it wasn't bad. We decided to walk from the Westin, which isn't recommended at night as there is no light walking down the road, and once in the building weren't exactly sure where to go as it lacked signage. Once on the porch, the ambiance was great other than the extreme amount of mosquitos. The best part of the meal was the drinks and the free bread that came out before the meal. The bread was absolutely outstanding. We got the lobster which was subpar, and the ravioli, which was outstanding. We finished with deserts which honestly were very underwhelming and definitely wouldn't call the cheesecake...cheesecake! The staff was friendly, but it was very confusing as to who was waiting on who as there were 6-7 people constantly stopping at our table, and we weren't sure who to ask for drinks or to order our food. It seemed a bit chaotic. Overall a good time but not what we were hoping for on our last night on the island. read more
