Absolutely amazing. If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. Service was fantastic, food was delicious and the atmosphere is very cozy and unique. Each member of the staff approached us with friendly smiles on their faces. We ordered the Lobster Bisque as the appetizer then the special sea food platter for two. Hands down the best sea food we’ve ever had. The table beside us ordered one of the pizzas and also cleared their plate with smiles on their faces. We will be going there again. Also, please know they take credit card.
We stayed near this restaurant but didn’t see many cars there so we hesitated to go try it but on our last night we came here and now regretting not coming sooner. The food was delicious- our table had a seafood platter and fajitas. Everything was so tasty. The staff were so kind and friendly. It seemed like their were returning guests there as the staff were very excited to see some people which is always a hood sign (having regular customers). We will definitely be back and I recommend you to go visit here.
Excellent restaurant! Every dish I tried was exquisite — the lobster bisque, the bread, the shrimp, the fish, and my favorite: the lobster! The tequila was delicious too. But above all, the place had such a warm and welcoming atmosphere, with excellent and friendly attention from the owner. If you’re in Cozumel, you can’t miss it!
If you’re looking for a great place to eat that’s off the beaten path then look no further. The staff is amazing and the fresh seafood is outstanding. You also get to jam out to 80’s music on a retro MTV playlist while dining. Highly recommend!
Lobster pizza is average. Ceviche was okay. We ate here on at least two occasions and had good service but only okay pizza both times.
Shhh don't tell anybody about the islands best kept secret restaurant! Much larger than it looks. We stayed next door at Suites Cozumel and walked over nightly for their famous lobster pizza, icey Pina coladas and key lime pies yum!
Family restaurant with a first class service. If you have a large group of people, ask for the seafood parrillada, believe me you wont regret it. Thank you to all at Gusto’s for making our dinner so unbelievable. Sincerely Eric.
The best experience the owner was awesome and friendly, very calm nice quiet environment. And the seafood platter was so awesome , you should try there key lime pie out of this world, and tequila was so smooth. Definitely going back again!
