Really enjoyed our visit. Food was delicious all around but the portion on the seafood pasta seemed small compared to its price.
We will definitely visit Yucatan Waterfront again.
The service staff was working very hard with a crowded restaurant. They deserve a raise or more help.
Loved the swings
Next time: seafood trio

I would rate 3.5 stars. The food is good, not great. The prices are higher than other waterfront restaurants. The atmosphere is very nice and right on the water. Indoor seating, limited outdoor seating. They do have a guy that plays music, but in the section where he plays, the seating is limited. Free valet parking is only in the parking lot. If it's full, you have to park on the road and cross traffic to get into the restaurant. Boat accessible, shallow water.

Drinks were a bit weak I will say, not much of a pour for the price!

Would not recommend this place. Went for the first time while visiting Cape Coral. Sad to say such a beautiful view with horrible service. Had a bad experience from the Valet, the staff at the entrance of the restaurant and our waiter was the worse. Oh not sure if one thing relates with the other but 20% tip is obligated on you bill , maybe explain why our waiter was rude and looked so miserable and I was talking to her.

We waited well over an hour after we put in our order for our food.

We had reservations for 7:15. Seated immediately but waited 45 minutes for waitress to take drink order. The vodka martinis were mostly water. My dirty martini was water AND pickle juice; not olive juice. The drinks were made over. I drank my watered down martini but my friend sent hers back and got plain water instead. Another 45 minutes before we got our food. Looks like they definitely needed more servers. The food was good and the atmosphere was nice.

Great view. Great vibe. Waiter was good - a bit slow getting around to us. Mahi Mahi tacos disappointing. Almost rubbery. Key lime pie looked great. Not much key lime flavor or tartness.

Took some time for a host/ess to seat us, even though we were the only ones waiting. Once we were seated, we didn’t see our server for almost 20 mins. We asked what the ‘house wine’ was and she had no idea. She went to ask the bartender, which took another 5 mins and she came back with no real answer other than ‘one was sweeter than the other’. She took our drink order and we waited another 15 mins for our drinks, that were poured and sitting at the bar. The Sauvignon Blanc was terrible. We waited 10 mins for the server to return to let her know, before I finally got up and went to the bar to order something different. The food came very slow, and still no sign of our server. My sweet potato fries were ice cold and hard, I tried to find our server but finally gave up and just didn’t eat them. We were almost finished our meal before she came back and asked if we wanted dessert, she didn’t offer refills on our drinks once (a loss on the restaurants part because all 5 of us were drinking alcohol and would have had seconds). She didn’t even know what was on the dessert menu, she gave us two options, I asked about the key lime pie and got the response ‘oh yeah, that too’. Overall, it was one of the most disappointing outings I’ve had in the 3 weeks I’ve been in Florida. It came highly recommended, but our server completely ruined our experience.

this used to be one of my favorite places I have t shirts sweatshirts etc.... the owners say their business ...blame it on the traffic and bridge under construction BS ....IT has gone down cause of the service and food!!! I came today for lunch went to the " outside bar" was there 20 minutes !! the lady bartender out there looked at me 6x and even asked the guy right next to me how his calamari was ...looked at me and walked away..at that point the lady next to me on the other side tapped her glasses on the bar and said "excuse me this lady here has been waiting along time" yup still nothing!! a couple walked in sat in the swing chairs right next to me on the right and she went to them right away!!! seriously!!! so at that point I went to the inside bar and Paul took care of me within 45 seconds.. he was great!! I told him what happened outside and I talked to the bar manager too.. TONIGHT
I talked my husband into coming here to give them another chance and AGAIN shitty service on the outside bar WTH is going on???? AGAIN it has NOTHING to do with traffic...its your SERVICE!!!!
yeah still waiting for service!!!!

food great, drinks terrible very very light on alcohol. Even my wife said her drink only tasted like tonic water and couldn't drink it

Docked here for lunch with a group of 9 people. We had lots of drinks, some had shots (not me) and we all enjoyed lunch. I had the coconut shrimp with onion rings basket. I enjoyed the flavorful slightly sweet breading and sweet sauce. I wish the portions had been larger. Only 5 shrimp. Other ordered the fish tacos which was surprisingly large and looked amazing. Someone ordered gator bites and I tasted one, lol tasted like chicken. 😉 Service was good and we had a large outdoor table under the canopy in the shade.

It has great atmosphere if you're looking for quality food this is not the place. Bar quality food if you like out of the box and onto your plate kind of food this is your kind of place.
