I had heard a lot about this restaurant on Yelp, Loco Gringo, and on TripAdvisor. The food was really good (if you like coconut shrimp, theirs is fabulous). You pay for the shrimp dishes, though; I think the coconut shrimp was close to $20, so it's not dirt cheap Mexican. As long as you're expecting that, you'll be pleased. I... More

This place came recomended to us by our condo neighbors. It did not disappoint. I got the vegan black bean burger and my mom go the homemade hamburger. We were both happy with our meals. Our waiter, Gilbert, was amazing. Would and might go back there.

Prices are right at this roadside burger shack serving up classic Mexican fare as well. You can also get salads They make it easy for expats to claim the resident's 10% discount . The music is great--classic rock--but otherwise there is no ambiance. It can get hot inside the restaurant. You have to pay cash. Under North Amerian management. A... More

The ribs were really as great as others have said. The other food we had was average- I had a nice piece of fish that was really swimming in a chipolte sauce- hard to taste the fish.The waiter was very attentive and the owner was very engaging; but the kitchen was really slow, as it took over an hour, possilby...

Loved the coconut shrimp, but found it wasn't as tasty as last year. Great to visit the owners, be able to phone back to Canada for free, and they offer free WiFi. Hoping someday they will take a credit or debit card.

We had read reviews about the great hamburgers so we decided to check it out our first evening in Akumal. We arrived for dinner about 6:30 p.m. It was a cool evening but we opted to sit out on the veranda instead of inside. We ordered a couple of beers and then our food. There was one other couple inside... More

Went for lunch last Saturday and was impressed with everything. My friend and I were tired of the resort buffet food and both of us enjoyed every bite. Huge portions that we failed to finish. After a morning of snorkelling we were hungry and spent over 3 hours drinking and eating in the company of great staff and an owner... More

Especially after all the rave reviews. The service/waiter was great! The atmosphere was clean and laid back.....all formula for a great relaxing experience. After reading the reviews we both decided to have the coconut shrimp. We started w/the homemade onion rings which were really very good! The shrimp, however, not so much. Although they were huge and the portion size... More

Went twice in March, once for rib night (Wednesday), and another time for lunch. The ribs were good and the coconut shrimp and burgers were great. It was nice to see Mary and Ken again.
