    How do you spend a birthday in Cancun?? We'll let me show you, first you head over to Las ape for this big ass marg and hookah ohhh and let me not forget tacoosssss!! I recommend the shrimp tacos. They were too goodttt!!! The service was on point, the vibes were on point, everything was really on point and boyyy make sure you take at least three shots (it's only right) So head over to The Hotel Zone in Cancun and get y'all some of this!!!!

    This is one of the best spots in Cancún. The place is divey and they play loud music; if that doesn't bother you, just order food from here. I was very skeptical about eating here,But I'm glad I did. The food was delicious, but simple. Everything I ordered was delicious. The Michelada was great as well. I order the michelada with a Modelo beer and it was very tasty. Overall this was the less expensive place that I ate and one of the best.

    Ceviche: pretty good and you get a ton of it.

    So there are (at least) two restaurants by this same name in Cancun but this is the one in the party zone. The food isn't amazing but it's pretty darn good plus our service was over the top terrific. Depending on your mood, sitting outside or inside makes a huge difference. Inside, you've got a fairly quiet restaurant. Outside, you've got a front row seat to the drunks and vendors and zanies walking this area. That's what we wanted and, even though there weren't any outside tables available, they quickly and happily set one up at our request. The margaritas are tangy and clearly homemade (no mix). The micheladas come in a stein as large as a Buick and are fresh and spicy. The horchata was freshly made, too, and delicious. The guacamole--ordered at the start--did not appear until after our meals were served which was a bit of a bummer but it was also homemade and very good. For our meals, we split the regular sized mariscada with shrimp (the dish everyone seems to get based on the pictures on Yelp) and a ceviche that was MASSIVE. Neither dish was spectacular but there was plenty of food, it all tasted fresh, and it was all tasty. Aside from the dry and boring salad portion, The mariscada is a fun dish and came with rice, beans, fantastic grilled peppers, and two differently prepared shrimp servings. This is not a fancy or amazing restaurant but it's fun and reliable and sometimes that's good enough.

    After biking in 100% humidity we were desperate to eat in any air conditioned spot regardless of how good the food would be. Unfortunately the other shops nearby were all closed due to Covid and weren't opening up for another couple days. Luckily, one of the waiters flagged us over with promises of cool a/c and we're so glad he did! The food and drink were delicious. I ordered the grilled shrimp tacos and frozen margarita and my husband got a variety of different tacos. The wait stuff were friendly and courteous and even helped my husband find a spot to park our bikes. Definitely recommend this off the beaten path spot- just ignore all the annoying locals trying to sell you things along the way.

    Menu, where?

    Terrible food, terrible service. Overpriced shack. Making money on tourists by providing terrible service and spoiled food. Service is 1 out 10. What a disaster restaurant. Avoid. Not recommended!

    Grilled pineapple, shrimp and cheese

    Was looking for some fresh grilled fish tacos in the main party zone in Cancun and found this place from fellow yelpers. If your looking for grilled fish or shrimp tacos this is the place. Fish was fresh and delicious. I ordered the garlic mojo de ajo and ajillo grilled fish tacos. My favorite of the two was the ajillo I liked the chili under the fish (was very mild which was great). Santos the waiter explained all the fish taco varieties and I stayed away from the spicy ones for sure. Some others might like those but I can't handle spicy food :) Guacamole was big but wasn't that good I have had better unfortunately.

    Whole fish, fried
    Janelle B.

    Amazing. Literally was starving and passed by-- the music drew me in lol they were jamming . Ordered the whole fish & I'm embarrassed to show how I left the plate lol but it was great. Very welcoming staff , great drinks. Also stayed and did hooka for a bit. Hooka pricing same as US. Can't wait to go back

    Great service great food. Marisco's were on point but I have had better not gona lie. Hard Shell shrimp tacos with avocado was bomb, had ceviche and camarones de ajo(garlic) plate.

    add tips by themselves. Poor service.
    Eden L.

    Poor decoration. Cheap chairs and greasy tables. Some dishes charge more than my 4 star hotel. The flavour was just OK. The waiter missed one of our shared dish leaving us unhappy and unsatisfactory. We had tacos and grilled fish. They are both Ok. Filling of tacos was not generous. The fish was better. The fish came with rice and salad. The big tray of dish looks interesting but we never get that and didn't want to wait for it.

    Had a f*ckin blast at this spot! This a most definite place to visit while in Cancun! The tiger is my favorite attraction along with the food & drinks!

    Such great service from the waiter. Their agua frescas were delicious and for the price?! Un-believable! I loved it! The thing that really made this place stick out was their green salsa!!!! Had to ask the lady that worked there how to make it before I left, it was to die forrrrr.

    Close walk from the aloft with lots of other businesses around. Friendly waiter that can explain all the dishes. I did my research first so I kinda know what I want already. The Shrimp Ceviche is bit different from the TexMex, served without lots of juice in a bowl, instead on a plate. I was here mainly for the seafood combo plate. Since the regular size is too much for two of us, we went for the half size. The price do change based on the season. Some of photo shows 500 peso for the full size, I saw 650 during January. Overall taste of that is good. It has rice, salad, grilled peppers and 3 flavors of shrimps - regular grilled, garlic flavor and cilantro sauced. I like the garlic one the best. You can mix them and eat like a mix salad, or wrap them with soft tortillas and add some chipotles sauce.

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.

It's huge, as far as presentation it's not very fancy, it was tasty but as large as it was you'd think it had more alcohol to offset the size. But it did not. My wife ordered the aguachile with octopus. I ordered the Tuna Burger, and we got the steak quesadillas as an appetizer. My wife said she would give her aguachile a 3.8 out of 5. I thought the tuna burger was very tasty. Basically they took a tuna steak and put it between a hamburger bun. I can't really compare it to a regular meat burger. But on a scale of 1-10 I'd give it a 7. It came only with lettuce and tomato, but it had flavor enough. The quesadilla's were good, but nothing special, I'd say they were comparable to any you get at an average Mexican restaurant in the states. We came here because of the high ratings.

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.

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 :)
