This place is awesome! It's a cool oasis right by the airport with amazing food. The shrimp tacos are fantastic. Everything is shady and cool. The service could not be better, they even let us use their cell phone when our ride did not show up. The friendly welcoming nature of the staff and the beautiful music and the great prices really made this place special. Thanks you! read more

Great place to wait for your flight. We walked from the airport. It was probably about a 4-5 min walk. Tacos were great. The fish and shrimp were excellent. The best seafood we've had on the island (aside from fresh ceviche on a boat in the middle of the ocean). Masa for the tortillas was incredible. Service was excellent. It is family run and they were helpful and kind. If you're looking for a little oasis to wait for your plane along with VERY good tacos , this is the place for you. read more

Shrimp tacos - The shrimp is very tasty. Love the grilled onion. The corn tortillas is so awesome! The brown sauce is quite tangy and delicious. Watch out the green bottle. Very spicy! Mixed taco - excellent! Tasty! . This place surprised me. Didn't expect some place so close to airport (5 minutes) is that good. It's not Mexican price but more read more

Excellent food! We had the guacamole, pico, shrimp, fish and beef tacos. The real star was the fish taco, but they were all great. This place is also right next to a taxi stand but don't let that deter you. The people waiting just stare at you with jealousy. read more

There are 3 different kinds of customers at Diego's. Locals, tourists arriving and tourists departing. We hit this place on arriving on the island, grabbing a taco and guac while we wait for our rental car to be delivered, and then grabbing a taco and guac while we wait to turn our rental car back in. Fish tacos are the best. But shrimp, beef and pork tacos are also available. No alcohol, bring your own, but Mama's home made lemonade is a hit. read more

Diego's Tacos Cozumel - Tacos Near Me

Don't be fooled by the fact it's right by the airport. I heard someone walk past and say "no we shouldn't stop here because all the cruise people get off the boat and go here". That might be true, but the fish tacos were so incredible. I wasn't fully into the idea of fried fish tacos but the batter was so light and they stuff the tacos full with fish. The various salsas given were a great addition to compliment the fish. read more

Diego's Tacos Cozumel - Fish tacos - Tacos Near Me

American prices but bomb fish tacos. This place seems to cater to the gringos but it's delicious! I also loved their garlic salsa (which you can also buy in regular and carry on size). This place is literally across the street from the airport so a good place to go before or after a flight. Seating: outdoors under a patio Service: fast and friendly Paying: they charge a fee for credit cards, US dollars accepted but change is in pesos read more

Good fish tacos near the airport. We read the Yelp reviews for Diego's and perhaps were expecting more than we should have. We had the fish tacos (3 small tacos, fish was grouper), and the tacos were good but not exceptional. But they were the best fish tacos we found in Cozumel. By the way, if you want really good fish tacos, go to Puerto Vallarta. The grouper was fresh with delicate flavors. But the breading was overwhelming. Service: Good service Ambiance: taco stand with a metal awning (in other words pretty authentic). read more

First time but a great way to start your vaca with fresh tacos and cold soda or brew. Steps from the airport. Walk over can grab a taxi right by your table. read more

Tacos were amazing...open air restaurant...a must when traveling to Cozumel. Located just outside the airport. Service was great.

This was our first and last meal in Cozumel, which was just a few minutes' walk from the airport. It's an unassuming spot but don't shy away from it. Everything was so delicious. The hot sauces are also so good, just a few drops of the hottest one will complement the flavors but add some additional heat. We inhaled the first meal that I don't have photos (lol!) but tried the pork tacos, shrimp tacos, and Diego's tacos between our two meals on our vacation. Personal fav is the shrimp tacos- my friend described them to be like shrimp tempura, which is pretty accurate! I am salivating as I write this review and wish I could go back for a meal tomorrow! Eric & other staff were so friendly- I told Eric I would see him again soon so when I'm back in Cozumel you bet that this will be my first and last stop! They take pesos, USD, and credit card. read more

Diego's Tacos Cozumel - Best shrimp tacos!! - Tacos Near Me

Diego's Tacos is super convenient location by the airport, literally across the street. Employees are super friendly, speak Spanish and English, and super fast service. While this is local place, mostly tourists going/coming airport come here. I highly recommend eating here if you have a departing flight and did not get a chance to grab something to eat on the way to the airport because there is limited food options at the airport. I ordered the fish tacos, 3 tacos. If you are not super hungry share an order. The grouper fish was so tender, fresh, and flavorful. And breaded. I do not like breaded fish, but these were crispy. I will say out of all the fish tacos I ate on the island, these were the best. The salsas provided are delicious and provide the extra kick of spice that takes the tacos to the next level. read more

Hmmm, after reading everyone else reviews I kind wonder if it was just an off day :( I love fish tacos and I was so disappointed that on the day we visited the fish and shrimp were not crispy at all. It was like mushy batter....IMO, the oil must not have been hot enough or maybe they had a new person in the kitchen‍ The Diego tacos were far better and they also had super solid guacamole (just needed salt). Hopefully this place will get their fish & shrimp tacos perfected in the future, I will try to give them another shot when I am back on the island! read more

This place was such a great find for us! We walked here from the airport with our bags to grab a snack after our flight. It is a very safe place! The staff were friendly and service was quick. The beef tacos and guacamole with chips were delicious. It is covered, but open and airy. I highly recommend this spot. read more

Walking around Cozumel and looking for the best tacos in town and we ran into a couple from Minnesota that said the best tacos they had were near the airport. We said we would love that except we are only in town for the day visiting from the cruise ship. They said hop in, we will give you a lift there. Normally this is where I say no thank you, but their warm Midwestern hospitality had me saying let's go!! Before I even realized what I was doing we climbed into the backseat of a random strangers car in a foreign country. Fortunately they were as friendly as their disposition and brought us to Taco Nirvana. Diego's is an unassuming restaurant near the airport, they have a limited menu but everything they make, they do it very, very well. We had a plate of fish tacos, a plate of shrimp tacos and finally a plate of the vegetarian tacos. We supplemented these 9 tacos (3 per plate) with a side of chips and freshly made guacamole and washed them all down with the most refreshing home made lemonade. Definitely a taco stop I will never forget and the next time some random stranger tells me to hop into the back of the car, I won't hesitate if they say tacos are on the way! (Side note, don't jump into random strangers cars). Stay safe and eat tacos. read more

Tacos here are a must try ! The fish and shrimp are both fried not the crispiest but I like it just the way they prepared it.. I think that's a personal preference if you like it crispier tell them to just make it crispier and and we suggested they make grilled anyways for healthier option hopefully sooner than later into their menu. The sauces here are the perfect combo with the tacos and the guacamole had a nice little D tortilla design. Definitely nice to eat out of the resort life. The fish tacos are with 2 big pieces in each taco which comes in an order of 3. read more

Not much to add to existing reviews. I don't know if these are the best fish and shrimp tacos on Cozumel, but they're damn good - and the first ones you can get when leaving the airport. The jam is to exit the CZM doors, walk across the street to Diego's, and grab a few tacos while waiting for a taxi or your rental car to show up. Same on departure. read more

This is THE spot!! Its a quick walk from the Airport too. Perfect location to stop after a long flight & to start enjoying the island. Our group of 5 ordered nearly everything on the menu! The guac & salsa is to amazing, our tacos were delish. The two staff there were so friendly, they kept the chips & fresh lemonade coming! They even called a taxi for us & gave us some advice on driving on Cozumel, helped us sort out an issue with the rental car & recommended other businesses. They were the best!! Definitely a must stop place on Coz. read more

For airport food this was good and it's pretty much the only option - we got the steak fajitas. The tortillas are corn and it's just sour cream, steak (minimal amount) peppers and onions and guacamole. No cheese - boohoo! Kinda pricey for Mexico and even the airport but my kiddo said it was good as long as she ate the steak in the tortilla - otherwise the steak on its own was too spicy for her. read more

After doing a google search for best tacos in Cozumel, Diego's was mentioned several times and it was close by so we decided to give it a try. We weren't all that impressed. You have to understand that I live in the street taco capital of California so I've got access to a lot of taco places and thus one ranks right in the middle. The fish tacos were not only not crispy, but they were too soft, almost mushy. Taste was good but I like a little chew on my fish. The beef tacos were much better but nothing special. One thing I didn't like was that you had to order a platter of 3 of the same kind of tacos, no substitutions. I would have ordered a fish, shrimp and beef taco but could not. Heck I may have ordered 4 tacos if I could get them as singles. The guacamole had not seasoning or any flavor beyond avocado. The salsas were very good and the portions were large but you are paying California prices. Can't always trust articles on the internet I guess. read more

Diego's Tacos Cozumel - Menu - Tacos Near Me

Great, friendly staff and delicious and filling shrimp tacos. I would have liked a la carte tacos so I could have tried a few types, but they sell meals of one type times three. There's meat and meat blend, and shrimp. The shrimp is breaded. They also have chicken fajitas. They have sodas and fresh lemonade. It's a cute little space with a few tables under an awning. It's right in front of the airport, less than a five minute walk. It's a great stop for a quick lunch after a midday arrival, and surely also for a quick lunch before heading out. They take payment in pesos or dollars, and make change. It's a great stop in the way in or the way out of Cozumel. read more

Gonna give 5 stars, even though we didn't get to eat here, bc I don't want to ruin their ratings. FYI, it's closed on sundays. Yelp currently says they are open 7-1, but they are not. I submitted a recommendation to adjust their hours on Yelp. We planned our trip around going there on our last day of vacation and I'm so sad we didn't get to experience this taco place! read more

We support this place and people running it ! Great food, a well deserved back story for support and delish tacos that are affordable and delish. Meat was juicy. Guacamole spot on. Garlic hot sauce super but hot ... and the owners kind, generous as well as accommodating. Over all we enjoyed supporting them and will multiple times on each visit to Czm. As well as buying some hot sauce ! read more

I'd heard the best way to grab a cab from the Cozumel airport isn't at the airport at all. Technically, cabs aren't allowed to do pick-ups there. Instead, grab your bags and exit the airport, and walk right through the parking lot until you hit the sidewalk. Take the sidewalk to the main street, and cross over. You'll see a red Coca-Cola awning which covers the patio at Diego's Tacos. There, you'll be greeted by a friendly young gentleman and shown to a table. My husband and I ordered the shrimp tacos and fish tacos (pictured). While they cooked, we were treated to some chips and several homemade salsas. Delicious! The tacos arrived a little later and they were excellent. Both of our orders, plus a bottle of water and a Coke came to just around $12, including tip. Crazy good deal. Our new friends flagged down a cab for us and we were on our way to the hotel. I imagine every trip to Cozumel from here on out will start with a visit to Diego's. read more

This place is the real deal! Our resort food was gross, so when we checked in at the airport we walked across the street and got tacos. The fish tacos were light, crispy and delicious! The garlic habanero sauce is addictive. The beef tacos were good, but the beef is chopped. The tortillas are amazing. We have 6 tacos, a water and a coke for $12.50 US. Check this place out! read more

The best food in Cozumel! After our long week of awful resort food we found this gem! Service was amazing and so was the food. The garlic habanero sauce was AMAZING, if the airport would've allowed it I would've bought a bottle to go! I'm vegetarian and had the veggie tacos and they were amazing. My family members tried the shrimp, fish, and pork tacos and loved them all! Wish we would've came here before our last day of vacation! Highly recommend! read more

Great fish tacos! Friendly service and inexpensive. We'll be back the next time we're in Cozumel for vacation.

My favorite place in all of Mexico for fish and shrimp tacos. Perfectly fresh, perfectly prepared. Mrs. DIEGO makes a habenero garlic sauce that is wonderful on the seafood. Come sit under the big red tent, relax, the DIEGO family are wonderful hosts. read more
