We have been eating at this little place for 12 years. We visit the island twice a year and while there we make several visits to this restaurant. The owner Diego, and family are the most delightful people. We love them dearly. The food is excellent. There is no better fish anywhere on the island! Diego puts on a live... More

Diego is always ready to personally prepare the best ceviche of th island... He will greet you with a smile and take your order. For take out or eat in, it is always a delightful experience.

We've been here 3 or 4 times now. Fish fresh and delicious! We get the whole fried and it is the best fish we've ever had. 1 large fish, fresh salad and rice for $16. Plenty for 2 people. They used to give a small serving of cerviche but none today. Small garden seating area, clean and relaxing. They now... More

It is disappointing when you see or what appears to be a stacked review of a restaurant..I would rate this as average or perhaps little above..but #1 in Cozumel is a complete and total joke... This is a disservice to people who go on to get "honest" reviews, Cozumel has many top notch restaurants, taco places and fish joints... Perhaps... More

This is a laid back fish shop in the neighborhoods. Everything is fresh and good. The ceviche is fantastic, also the fillets.

Seriously, its a little out of the way but well worth the stop. Wonderful lunch spot, had grilled fish and shrimp tacos. Don't leave without checking this place out and try to find Carlos, that guy is awesome! Very fresh food, well prepared and delicious.

I can't say enough about our wonderful this restaurant is. Carlos makes you feel like an old family friend. His staff is very friendly, their English is limited. The food is amazing. We had fresh lobster one night (the menu depends on the catch they he is brought), fried fish fillet another, and shrimp also. All had great flavor, I... More

Wow, we got the place and saw so many folks lined up outside taking dinner to go, that we knew we were on track. Inside this little eatery is a garden setting with patio tables throughout. Service was quick and pleasant. The beer was cold and the food was phenomenal. I think I could have eaten there several more times... More

Perfecto! A non-touristy restaurant in Cozumel. Petrus, from the Mayan Steam Lodge brought me there by default. His first choice restaurant was closed. Fish and more fish on the menu. The fish cerviche' appetizer was very delicious with the tortilla chips. I wanted to order the whole fried fish just like the locals - the waiter told me to try... More
