    My hubby talked me into trying this restaurant based off of other yelp reviews. Got to say - the pasta was really, really, really good! They aren't lying when they tell you the portions are HUGE - think family style! We ordered a pizza and the Killer Shrimp pasta (I think that's what it was called - maybe Crazy Shrimp??). My husband still hasn't stopped talking about that pasta! The pizza was just okay, but that pasta! Yum, yum, yum! We knew we were going to leave with leftovers but we didn't realize how much - these 2 items could easily feed 4 people! The atmosphere of the restaurant threw me off a bit because it's very bright inside. I think if they turned the lights down just a bit it would make for a better experience. Just my two cents. Service was very good - very friendly staff! This is a great alternative to the "fancier" spots in the hotel zone. We will definitely be back!

    Chesters is really a gem here in the hotel zone if you're looking for delicious affordable eats. The drinks are delicious and the entrees can each feed two (the waiter cautioned us in ordering two pizzas for the two of us; he was right - we ended up not even finishing one). Service was great; wait staff was very attentive and the lagoon side booths during the sunset were a perfect way to end the day.

    Pepperoni Pizza

    Best pizza I've ever had. So when we were going there, my parents and I were just looking around for somewhere to eat at and we we walked past it and decided to try it. It was probably one of the best Italian-like restaurants I've been to while on this vacation. The waiter was nice and my parents aren't really pepperoni pizza fans but we got some to try and it was some of the pepperoni pizzas they liked! This was our first time here and our first impression was a very good one! Keep up the good work guys!!!

    Cheese dip

    What a wonderful find! This place needs more recognition because it is a fantastic restaurant. My wife and I were looking for food and just saw the sign of this place. As soon as we walked in our host Alfredo started cracking jokes and was very warm, funny and a great host. We got inside and absolutely loved the decor! The pictures don't do it justice For drinks I had the Willy Wodka which was a great mixed drink but I am a chocolate lover so I was partial towards it. We had the cheese dip for appetizers and the Taj Mahal Pasta for entrees. The food is giant in portion size and one dish can easily serve up to 4 people. The Cheese dip was great but the Taj Mahal was only good. Still this experience was fantastic and worth the visit for anyone coming to Cancun and in the area

    Frozen margarita but I think they gave us the mangorita! Still delicious!!!

    Really delicious pizza! Although we're in Mexico, we were looking for something other than Mexican food! We got a pepperoni pizza and a frozen margarita! Delicious! At first, I ordered the moji frozen drink but had to send it back because it had wayyyyyyy too much mint! Our waiter was friendly and the restaurant was clean and colorful! We'll probably come back tomorrow! They have a huge menu of pastas that I'm dying to try! Do yourself a favor and give this place a visit when you come to Cancun!!

    El Corleone! White garlic sauce, mushroom, bacon, and cheese. YUM

    During our stay in Cancun we visited Cheester's twice! This is one of the only restaurants near the hotel zone that really gives you a bang for your buck. The first time there, we each ordered a Mangorita (a mango smoothie with tequila) and shared a "La Polla" pizza. We couldn't finish the pizza and chugged out huge drinks! The second time, we opted for no alcohol (though the Frida Kahlo looked great) and order a Sydney salad and El Corleone pasta. FANTASTIC! And again, we couldn't finish either dish. The staff is friendly and accommodating! Great place for a group of friends to drink and chat, and equally as great for a family stop!

    The atmosphere is everything!

    Stumbled upon this place walking. The staff are friendly and very attentive. You MUST try the Cherster Rolls. A mix of mozerella sticks and egg rolls with a Thai mix. Yea, I know it sounds a bit...but the taste! They also have a variety of gourmet pizzas. Stop reading and go there NOW!

    Mango Margarita. Delicious and very reasonably priced.

This place was recommended by our butler at the hotel, and honestly, we should have just gone with our original choice instead of coming here. The restaurant itself is aesthetically pleasing, but that's about where the positives end. The food is seriously underwhelming and absolutely not worth the price. I ordered the seafood spaghetti, and every single clam came out closed. The mussels were ridiculously small, there was barely any other seafood in the dish, and for the price they charge, it honestly feels like a complete rip-off. The show is entertaining, but the entertainment is better than the food, in my opinion. On top of that, the sodas we were served were flat and appeared to be expired, which is completely unacceptable. This has easily been the worst dining experience I've had since being here. The atmosphere may look nice, but that does not make up for poor-quality food, questionable drinks, and prices that do not match what you're actually getting. I would not come back, and I definitely would not recommend this restaurant. And, we came here to celebrate a birthday. Wow!

All-in-all it was worth the inconvenience. Very eclectic menu, warm atmosphere and outstanding service. I started withe the Mango-Tamarind: Lettuce, Indian walnut, mango, blueberries, Cotija cheese, mango-habanero dressing and tamarind billet. Unique and tasty. "Swiss Chicken Enchiladas" for the main course was not what you get at a local Mexican joint -- Four tortillas stuffed with chicken, bathed in a creamy tomatillo sauce with melted cheese and a base of refried black beans. This was a 5-star dish! I couldn't resist ordering a side dish though I didn't need to because the enchiladas were really enough, so I indulged myself with fries: these were not your run of the mill French fries. Porfirio's Potatoes -- French fries with chipotle pepper aioli, parmesan cheese and parsley. Finally, if you like ice cream I highly recommend that you order BOTH offerings: 1) "ICE CREAM TASTING" - Strawberry ice cream, chocolate ice cream from Metate, marzipan ice cream and vanilla from Papantla. Served with grated coconut, chocolate grain, M&M's, Oreo cookies and ice cream cones; and, 2) "PORFIRIO'S MOLECULAR ICE CREAM" - served with cajeta Worcestershire sauce in an ice cream cone. (I know it sounds disgusting right? Nope it worked. The chef is just showing off with this dish)

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.

Waiters speak Spanish and English, are very friendly, and absolutely no wait for the waterfront table. The shrimp ceviche had so many shrimp with a tasty sweet sauce and avocado garnish. Guacamole was perfectly prepared, and all meals come with tortilla chips and a variety of salsas on a decorative boat tray. The tuna steak and Salmon with Lime Sauce were prepared perfectly and were both tasty and high quality. Sadly, the food was so delicious and filling we had no room to try the desserts. About a block away from the Isla Mall, but a much more authentic experience than the mall restaurants. A must-try dinner spot for seafood lovers in the Cancun hotel zone.
