Good food for reasonable price. My family of four ate lunch with soda for just under $40USD. Good guacamole, fish tacos, even club sandwiches. Recommended!

We have visited "La Cueva del Pescador" many times as I own a vacation villa nearby, and they never fail to please!! The name literally means "Cave of the fisherman" and you won't find fresher fish, lobster, or shrimp around! The presentation is homestyle (so don't expect any fancy plating!) and the dress is definitely beach casual - the tables... More

so ridiculously good with a marg. It was a mixture of grouper, lobster, shrimp (my favorite) and octopus. yum

If you like fresh fish with no fancy-dancy presentation or prices, this is the place to go. Their homemade Sangria takes the edge off -- their waiters will make you laugh -- and you can tuck into some excellent fish. We come to Akumal a couple of times each year and never miss a chance to stop by for a... More

Went there with family, kids who won't eat seafood. They custom-made them a meal of garlic spaghetti and chicken nuggets, which the kids loved! For the adults, very nice grilled shrimps and octopus. Fresh and tasty. They only take cash, which I didn't know, but were nice enough to let me pay the next day!

The seafood medley (600 pesos for two) was extraordinary. 4 small lobsters, a big filet of grouper, lots of calamari rings, and 6 big shrimp. Just that, simple fresh here it is seafood. BTW, they only take cash (pesos or dollars)

We stopped here for lunch and it was fairly crowded. I ordered the fried fish tacos and a soup that had chicken, tomatoes and avacado. The soup was really nice. The fried fish tacos were okay but nothing amazing. My husband had the fish filet which was grouper-with a chili type sauce because we asked for it mildly spicy.He said... More

Would recommend the octopus, squid and fish fillets and brochettes. Simple and tasty but skip the shrimp salad as although the shrimp are luscious ans big, they are overwhelmed by the mayonnaise. Its a simple, unpretentious place to eat at night with a straight-forward no-frills menu of good food. They'll cook your catch of the day if you care to... More

My boyfriend and I had dinner here one night during our trip to Akumal. The restaurant was more or less outdoors, with a large covered area and "beach" floor. Unfortunately, it had been so windy recently that the fishing boats weren't able to go out, so La Cueva didn't have some items on the menu. So we both opted for... More
