“ Such great service - genuinely sweet staff who want you to enjoy your meal. I got the grilled chicken (breast) with fries and rice (I skipped the beans). Husband got the beef nachos which were good! Bora bora (no ice) was excellent! Bloody Mary a but spicy but good. Great low key atmosphere. Lots of ceiling fans to keep it cool. They occasionally play music. Comes with chips & salsa. We would recommend. ”
“ One of the first restaurants I tried when I came to Cancun. It’s in the middle of Mercado 28 so I loved the culture and energy in the open concept restaurant. Received exceptional service from everyone. It wasn’t necessary but I was given a coat rack for the small camera bag I had. After ordering I was regularly checked upon. Their mixed ceviche was super yummy. I didn’t finish my large basket of chips but I wanted to pack it and they gave me a bag with a new set of chips and crackers. They also provided me with a complimentary calendar for 2021. Thank you! ”
“ This place is pretty good. The ceviche was great and a large portion. My wife had the local lobster and it was huge. The rest of the food was great as well. We had a great server in Jesus. I recommend this place if you are in the area as Market 28 attracts a lot of tourist. ”
“ Seafood canoe was very interesting taste but great. It was seafood (shrimp, octopus) w tropical fruity creamy sauce in half pineapple. ”
“ Was told by locals to try this restaurant out of visiting the market and didn't disappoint, a little pricier than I thought but it was definitely worth it. Food was really good and server was excellent, definitely have to try if you're going to Mercado 28. ”
