Great service and cool al fresco vibe, you start of with a big basket of tortilla chips and a variety of salsas. I started off with a Ahi Tostada and Wifey started with a seafood soup which were both tasty. We shared a fresh Catch local Hogfish and Grilled Octopus which were absolutely delicious! Four items, and two drinks with tip came out to a little over $50 usd. Definitely worth the visit!

The vibe is super relaxed, with all seats in the sand. My kids enjoyed chasing the iguanas and sitting on the palm tree (which strangely grows parallel with the ground) while we waited for our food. We didn't see the option on the menu but our guide told us there is a big cooler and you can just pick out your fish to get it fried up fresh for you. Sure enough, there was a huge white cooler where we could sort through the fish options and pick one the right size for our family. It came with sides like beans, guac and tortillas, and all meals come with chips plus tomato and jalapeno salsas. We also ordered ceviche and the total price was less than $40 for a family of 4. More importantly, everything was super fresh and delicious! I wish I lived nearby so I could come back again - I would be a regular if I could!

It's easily my favorite seafood restaurant in Puerto Morelos - which is full of seafood restaurants. The bad part is that there is no ocean view and no air conditioning, you need a car or a taxi to get there and the staff speaks little English. The good part is that it is clearly a very popular local place - my party has always been the only obviously non-local group in a usually crowded place- and the seafood is amazingly fresh, perfectly prepared, served fast (considering it is made to order) and delicious. The portions are enormous. The price is reasonable. One can eat like a king for 15 to 25 dollars a person. My favorite is the octopus ceviche. The octopus is soft and fresh and perfectly cooked. Tossed with very fresh finely chopped onions, tomatoes and peppers in a lemon, chili and cilantro sauce that is not too spicy. The best ceviche I have had in Quintana Roo. A medium portion is a very ample appetizer for two people or a satisfying meal for one person. We generally follow up with the whole fried hogfish, around a pound of perfectly fried fish, very fresh, crispy on the outside, moist on the inside, nicely salted. Served with a salad, a small portion of yellow rice and a really strong hot sauce on the side. The octopus escabeche and the shrimp with garlic sauce are also excellent choices. A cold Corona beer (or two) completes the meal.

We started off with some water and cold drinks, a beer and a mango margarita, and ordered some guacamole to start with. By far, some of the best guacamole I've had and I was happy that they put all the topping in the bowl and allowed you to mix in how much you like - allowing me & my sister to both enjoy it as she likes cilantro, it taste like soap to me. The shrimp were a little over cooked for me but they were seasoned well (which that in itself was a plus). The calamari was not our favorite. It was severed with a tartar sauce and it lacked seasoning and was chewy. It was cut larger than what we are accustomed to so that may have also had something to do with the texture. Although we were in the restaurant, we still had beach vendors coming up and trying to sell their goods and the music was LOUD as they were doing sound checks for the event. However otherwise it was a good experience. They do have parking in front of the restaurant. It usually have a cone or some spot saved as they don't want people parking and going to the beach, so if you see a spot blocked just give it a minute and the man will come move it and watch your car for a small tip.

We were lucky enough to find out about this locals only spot from a local. The menu doesn't mention it but there is a giant cooler by the entrance where you can pick out your own fish to cook for 600 pesos per kilogram. We got our fish fried and it was so fresh and tasty that my kids kept coming back for seconds and thirds and even fourths! It comes with beans, rice, cabbage slaw, and tortillas so it's a full meal on its own. You can also get deep fried garlic on top of your fish, yum! We also ordered the medium shrimp and fish ceviche which was quite a lot! I think the large would probably be enough for a family to eat as a full meal if you add on some sides. Every meal comes with chips, bean sauce, tuna salad and spicy habanero salsa. Also important if you have kids that pee all the time, there are 2 bathrooms!
