I want to start by saying me and my husband travel all over the world and have had some amazing food from all over and this place was top notch. My food was extremely good I ordered the scallops and we got the ceviche as an appetizer. Everything was so good and the service was amazing but the highlight was my husband’s face after taking a bite of his meal. I knew immediately he was over the moon. He got the bone marrow and octopus tacos and said it was the best meal he’s ever had in his life which is a huge compliment. We definitely recommend.

This restaurant is a must when you go to Cancun! Beautiful waterfront restaurant with a 1 million dollars view! priceless sunsets! The food is amazing! The presentation of their dishes are unique and the combination of flavors make honor to the highest quality of the mexican cuisine. The staff very professional and I want to thank you Luis Miguel and Antonio who made our night the best night in Cancun. They were very professionals as well, very knowledgeable of the menu and always helpful with our needs. I highly recommend this restaurant.

I’m usually not into the fine dining and small plate restaurants. However, this restaurant is impressed. We ordered the fire shrimp and the lobster tacos. They did provide us with chips and dip. The dips three flavor were amazing and nothing like I’ve had before. Also not to mention but their dessert is ahead of menu with amazing options. We got the house Flynn, which was perfect and taste texture in size highly recommend. Alberto May

Food was amazing and our waiter was friendly. The food came out decently fast and it was so good. They have a pretty big menu and lots of tasty options to choose from. The setup of the restaurant is very nice and scenic. It’s right next to the water and they built a dock so people could enjoy the view while they eat. They bring out some bread and special butters as a starter. I got a grouper filet which was about 475 pesos. For the atmosphere I put a 4 star because of mosquitoes. I know they can’t control that but it was just annoying. Our waiter actually gave us some bug spray without us asking which was nice. They also had signs for crocodiles and said that they usually see it 4 times a week. Overall fun experience and good food

I was lucky enough to visit the restaurant twice this week. I treated my husband to birthday dinner. I asked for a table with a sunset view and staff were very happy to assist. Service and food was so good that we decided to return the following day for lunch on our last day of holidays. This place is a paradise for seafood lovers, the menu is very extensive and wine list is good. We had some scallops ceviche, black rice and coconut shrimps on the first visit (no photos, sorry to busy enjoying food and watching the sunset) And on our second day we had tuna steak and garlic seafood. I’d recommend it to anyone who is in Cancun and is looking for quality food. Diego was superb looking after us! Gracias

Best to go here at sunset. They welcome walk ins but it’s best to get a reservation as it gets busy at night. They have live music too which is pretty awesome. Food and cocktails were great and worth the price.

Gorgeous spot on the water serving top notch seafood. We went twice and both times were excellent!! Would highly recommend the scallops aguachile which came with a delicious sauce. Some practical notes, service can be on the slow side, and the prices are in the mid to high range. They also have guarded parking just outside which is handy.

We had very good seafood here. The mood was romantic and many couples came for dinner. At sunset, I saw a lot of family groups. I can say this restaurant is best for couples, families and anniversary events.
