Just go and ask for the paquete. 11 course, non disappointment. Trust me, for as much as you can, listening from someone on the internet, this place is worth every bite. Think of it as the movie the menu without the ending.. Keep in mind that there is no menu to look at, and it doesn't look like a restaurant from outside. Keep an open and adventurous mind and s earch for this place like a valued treasure, and you will not be disappointed.

Extraordinary jewel in playa. Chef Alfredo Dominguez with over 30 years of experience provides a seafood sample menu. You don’t have to order. Different plates come your way. All of them delicious. Pricing is extremely reasonable. You can bring your own wine

Found this through Google maps. No sign outside. I posted a photo of the entrance. Black gate on the right (next to the gated stairs). You need to speak at least some Spanish. A seafood set menu (350 pesos) with a lot of food for 1 person. Other reviewers mentioned an omakase tasting menu experience and that was spot on. :) The taste was like home cooked food and I felt like I was dining in a local’s home.

Amazing food and service!! But they don't have a menu or speak English. So just order showing them the pics people posted on Google maps. It worked well and we enjoyed everything we ordered.

Excellent spicy octopus and very good shrimps! Local place, harder to find (no markings, but address matches). Great to get food while on Esmeralda beach.

Parking: Very small place, about 20 seats.

Simply amazing! You know you're in for a great experience when you're not even sure you're at the right place because there's no restaurant sign outside.The seafood is absolutely delicious and tender, and it comes at a reasonable price compared to places on 5th Avenue or in other countries like Canada. The service is excellent and fast!The owner is really cool, and we even got to pet his pet caiman.Venturing out of the touristy spots in Playa del Carmen gives you the chance to discover gems like this restaurant. Give it a try!

Impressive experience, all the food is super fresh and the seasoning of the Chef is enviable, who is remarkably a master! Congratulations on such exquisite food, I would just like to suggest that for a 360° experience it would be good to play some pleasant or instrumental music...

We were staying at the Paradisus, but I saw this place on Google maps and decided to try it. Amazing fresh seafood, many different dishes. It's based on the catch of the day, so it can vary, but if you love seafood you must try this place!

I don’t want to hype this up too much but honestly this was a once in a lifetime experience. Walking up to the door. No sign. Yelling inside and asking (in my rudimentary Spanish) is this a restaurant? Are you open?Only to have the gates of mariscos heaven open up for me.Omakase style tasting menu. You get what you get. And what you get is some of the freshest seafood available. Executed well and in a humble environment. Seriously so good.In order to find it you need to park and walk to the google maps location. There is NO SIGNAGE AT ALL. It’s the black gate next to the black gate in front of a staircase.It exists.

It was the authentic experience that you hope to find. When you say "this can't be it", you've found it. Look harder : )
