Ceviche was fresh and flavorful with reasonable price. The price of crispy fried whole fish was better than many restaurants we went. Staff were very friendly and attentive.

Great hidden gem in Playa del Carmen. I came her looking for the ceviche in town and I found it. The octopus ceviche was fabulous. The attention from Ivan and Jesus and their staff made our lunch in Playa del Carmen super fun. My husband loved the fish tacos and the presentation. Big thumbs up. Unpretentious place with great food.

The best fish / cerviche restaurant in Playa del Carmen without a doubt. We went on the first day from a recommendation and it was incredible.

We tried other restaurants but kept coming back here because the food is far better, for less $$$! Great service, we have some serious allergens / dietary requirements in our group and they were able to cater to everything (gluten, milk, maize and more).

They will let you pick your fish / lobster etc out and the prices are very fair. A must visit when in Playa del Carmen!

Escape the craziness of the touristy streets. Just maybe 4 blocks away from 5th Ave. Fresh seafood. Friendly staff. Very affordable prices.

Neighborhood was a bit sketchy, so I would be extra careful walking in the dark if you are solo traveler but you are completely fine during the daylight, and if you are in a pack during the evening time.

Get away from 5th Avenue and visit this fantastic family run restaurant. Super friendly, used by locals and visitors alike. Great fresh seafood, choose your fresh fish that is cooked in any style and flavour you like. Try mayan style beer that the locals drink or any other drink from the very reasonably priced menu. Thank You Valentino for making us feel dol welcome.

Excellent food and service. The food is very fresh and well prepared! The waiters are very nice and helpful. They even helped us pay the parking meter across the street. Only issue is it's an open space on a relatively busy street and the TV was playing music very loudly. We'll still be back because the food is delicious!

best seafood we’ve had in playa del carmen! staff is super attentive and friendly, live music was awesome. the Seafood Platter was gorgeous and everything was fresh and tasted amazing (like another review said, it can feed 3-4, and we had some for takeout)! Everything else we tried (tacos, mango margerita, and shrimp avocado appetizer) were also delicious. Definitely recommend! Thank you Sergio and everyone else!

We dropped in to try some seafood. We tried the crab and snails in the garlic sauce. Both plates were quite large, coming with rice and vegetables. The crabs were small so there was not much meat in them. The snails were really big and tasted good. Food comes with the complimentary nacho chips and dip.
