Coconut Shrimp was delicious. Shrimp burrito was filling and excellent. We even got to enjoy a Michael Jackson rendition that was quite good. Prices are a little like US. Great choice with the live music.

Fun place discovered by suggestion when we checked into Casa Mayaland in Isla Mujeres. Within walking distance of the house. Great food, good drinks, and funny signs everywhere! Can't wait to visit another time and go back to this restaurant.

We were driving the golf cart and stumbled upon this place last week. Yum yum yum!! What a great ambiance with kitties and chickens and beautiful fountains…super eclectic. Tons of donkey puns which is fun. Also the Michael Jackson impersonator and live band was unexpected and fabulous to watch! Now on to the food and drinks…the margarita with fresh red fruit was superb SO good, tacos omg amazing. 10/10 on everything we tried. To the reviewers talking about flies, I mean it is an outdoor restaurant on an island in Mexico so with that in mind remember we are cohabitating with Mother Nature. The staff did an excellent job of clearing food quickly and put these little detractors out on the table (I honestly didn’t notice flies either). We will be back when we return to the island in January with many of our friends!!

Very enjoyable meal! I got shrimp fettuccine, and it was good. The roll that came with it was good, too. Husband got mango shrimp ceviche & thought it was great. Mango margarita was really good. Open air place with cool vibe. The band that was playing while we were there was very good. Server was attentive. We would definitely go back.

Coming back for CHICKEN BINGO! this place was the best! Laid back but still lively and fun with a ton of stuff to look at. Our server was so nice and wonderful! He made our night amazing. (Wears glasses very sweet) BBQ ribs are where it's at and the steak skewers were to die for, along with house made fresh guacamole! Ate the food to fast to even get a picture!
