This place is located very far from the hotels zone. More for locals. There is no accessible or street parking, so valet is your only option. The staff is polite, not too friendly but no complains in that department. The food is what disappoints. I have been here before, the food used to be good, but today the chicken was unseasoned, the tortilla, which needs to be fried for our dish, it wasn't. The result was an awful smooshy consistency. The been sauce served cold. The pastries were ok, but not to make up for the rest of the menu. The place is full of friendly locals, which gives a very family oriented vibe. The terrace is covered so you don't suffer the sun, but the fans are not enough to cools down the whole area, so you get sweaty at the end of your meal. The prices are ok, not expensive. There fore I guess there was a balance after all. My final rating is one and a half star. Not coming back for a while.

Cafe Nader serves some really good quality food. They are a franchise, but the food is very good. So good that we came by twice during our stay at Cancun. One of my orders I ordered the Enchiladas Poblanas. Pretty much enchiladas in homemade sauce served with avocado instead of meat on top freshly chopped lettuce topped off with crema de queso. Very flavorful dish. My wife and brother also enjoyed their meals. Indoor and outdoor dining available, excellent customer service, great location, very affordable prices for a very well presented dish and yes they take credit cards.

Cockroaches on the wall

I stop by this place my way to Playa del Carmen for coffee and quick bite. All was good until I saw the cockroaches on the wall, there were 2/3 of them just chilling. We advised the server and he said that he was going to tell the manager. The manager never came to our table to even greet us. Food is just bit average in my opinion.

This place was amazing!! My fiancé and I were visiting Cancun on vacation and we can't express how much we loved this place. Please don't get stuck eating in the hotel zone (expensive and the food is mediocre) and take a trip to downtown! The service is amazing and the food is well worth it! Try the café lechera (yum!) and the plate featured below (I forgot the name of it). You will not regret it!

Large fresh squeeze OJ

Found this place in goggle maps by accident bc I was walking back to Rooster's where I ate 2 days ago.... Wow this place was so good..I had the French toast with scramble eggs w/ ham & cheese & large glass orange juice...The juice was FRESH SQUEEZED So delicious. My friend had omelette w/ beans , avocado and queso with shoestring tortilla chips that dish was delicious too the chips added great texture. They also brought out a basket of rolls w/ hot salasa & Verde sauces on the side... This all cost $15 ....Blown away in America the 2 large cups of juice would have been $12 . I tipped the waiter 150 Pesos which was $7usd he was so gracious but he was a very good waiter deserved every bit of it.. I wish I had taken pictures of the food but we so hungry just dug in... I did take photo if the juice.

Porfirio's - Bone marrow

Dinner in the cancun strip…read more We decided to pick Porfirio's for the evening from all of the restaurants outside of the all inclusive resorts. I took some notes and this is what I thought of the dishes. Xoajacan Imoladas - The mole is perfection. The flautas, superb. Everything in this plate is a symphony of what I would expect from Xoajaca. 9.5/10 Barbacoa Bonemarrow - Barcacoa is on point. The Marrow is Sublime. Together with the accompaniments is superb. I dream of Marrow everyday. This is a 10/10 Yellow fin Tosatadas - Superb!!! One of the best tostadas I have ever had. The microgreens, the sauce and the square Tostada works well all together. 8.8/10 Salmon - Cooked perfectly. The corn is a great accompaniment. The fish is impeccably seasoned. This dish is heaven sent with a 9.8/10 Grilled Octopus - Grilled perfectly, I can tell by the texture. The mash is superb, they used margarine instead of butter and I absolutely love the contrast from the traditional mash. 9.8/10 Mexican Rice - Its pretty good. It does have a nice seafoodish finish. The pepper was actually spicy. Nice and pleasant rice dish. 8/10 Charred Avocado Salad - Grilled avocado is a bit of a wash. It did make it look good on the plate. The dressing is a little weak. Needs a little more zip, some citrus or vinegar would give this salad some justice. Its a little uninspired 7/10 Service is impeccable and attentive and the atmosphere is lovely.

Gorgeous interior & very loud: music wise. The speakers are definitely great quality though, the…read moremusic videos they played sounded like a live performance in the restaurant itself. Anyway: the food, presentation of the dishes itself, and the overall vibe: 4/5. My favorite dish was definitely the steak. The bone marrow is better off being plain without all the stuff they put on top. The steak itself was perfectly cooked & seasoned. I should've took more pictures of the food but whatever- the mango tuna thing with avocado was delicious. Very mango forward. Great alongside some salsa as well. The octopus: OK enough, slightly overcooked. Chewy. Chicharron guac was yum. Our server was so sweet in the beginning but had an attitude after getting tipped 25% LOL other than that, great experience :)

When we planned a return trip to Cancun, Navíos was at the top of our list!…read more As always, the service was impeccable. Alberto took great care of us. The weather was beautiful, so we were able to sit outdoors. I ordered the coconut shrimp, and it came out in a coconut shell! That meal has lived rent free in my mind ever sense. I tried a bite of my mom's meal and husband's meal, and both were absolutely delicious. Portion sizes were generous.

I'm impressed!!!! Don't miss the experience of dining in Navíos. Everything is sooooo good…read more This Navíos is just a 10-minute walk from Westin Resort... but that 10-minute is worth every steps! The service is superb from receptionist to the waiters. You can tell that the waiters love what they're doing and all help each other. This place is by the lagoon so every table is a picture-taking location. But be careful of the crocodilo... of course, it's by the lagoon. The place itself is clean.. and the lagoon is clear water too. Now the food... it's as simple as, I can dine in this place everyday! It's not that expensive but the presentation, the service and the taste is like a 5-star fine dining restaurant. Even the drinks! I ordered their clam chowder (you can see in the attached video on how they served it), lobster tail wrapped with bacon, my hubby ordered salad (which was also excellent presentation), and steak. Let's not forget the chips that is on the house with 3 different taste buds sauces... tamarind (sweet), avocado (salty) and chipotle (spicy). Love love love! I should say, your visit in Cancun is not complete without visiting this excellent restaurant!

Mayan cuisine! We came here after visiting the ruins in…read moreMexico. This place specializes in Mayan pre-Colombian food, not Mexican food! Big difference! Many of the dishes have strange ingredients that the regular gringo hasn't heard of, which makes this even more exotic! I consider myself a mexican food expert, to some degree, and they're serving dishes that are so inventive, so wild, so fresh, so delicious! The dining area is split between a covered outside area, and seating on the grass overlooking the lagoon. Be careful, there's alligators in there! The service was fantastic- the waiter was patient, spoke English, and made excellent recommendations. I got fish with peppers, octopus ceviche, and some mezcal, followed by a honey and anise Mayan drink. All of which were delicious! My dining companion had a strange pepper with some fish- also nom! Coming here was like a history cuisine lesson, mixed with delicious food, wonderful scenery and a pleasant meal! My favorite part of this place is the artwork when you come in. They've got a Mayan god in a cenote at the doorway that just is amazing!

Wonderful to have a Mayan restaurant in Cancun again since Lana closed…read more Really unique dishes, including vegetarian options and good seafood.

5 stars for a lovely meal and festive environment out in Cancun. Mextreme serves breakfast lunch…read moreand dinner and there is a large bar. We had been walking in the area earlier that day and made a plan to come back for dinner. When we arrived there were a lot of people but we were seated immediately. Martin was our waiter and he was great. There were a few large screen TVs playing sports. There was live music. A lot was going on but it really worked. People were enjoying themselves and the wait staff was friendly and talkative. I ordered shrimp fajitas and my husband ordered the mole. He always orders mole. The meals were very good. We ordered a mango margarita and Tecate. The margarita came with a tehine rim. I just wiped it off. That is becoming so popular. I decided to indulge in the banana dessert and I am glad I did. It came with a show. That was fun and the dessert was delicious. We were there earlier in the evening and we saw many couples and families. I'm sure the place gets a little more livelier as the night goes on. If you are in the area, this is a good place to eat and enjoy your time in Cancun.
