“ Absolutely amazing, food, atmosphere & customer service. It’s a small family establishment, with nice decor. Everything was very clean and well kept. Menu was in Spanish/English. The owner ( I believe) spoke very good English. Chicken Fajitas & beef tacos, 2 (large) flavored waters was only 320 pesos about 16 US. All food was delicious & flavored waters were so good, Pineapple & hibiscus! We loved it & will definitely come back. ”
“ Everything you want when you leave the tourist area by the port in Cozumel. The food here is absolute grilled perfection. The arracherra tacos are tender, with a simple seasoning and come with a big pile of grilled onion. The plate is accompanied by 5 house made tortillas, and a set of 3 salsas, plus limes. I added guacamole. All that plus 2 Tecates for about what you’d pay for a chips and gauc closer to town. I’ll definitely come back. ”
