Had to have the Lionfish tacos. Delicious, and I normally don’t order seafood when I’m out. Very friendly owner/cook. US dollars accepted. If you want an authentic sleepy Mexican town experience eat here. Outdoor only.

It’s lionfish! Here, they serve lionfish in a cool little restaurant in Akumal, the owner/chef is a cool cat and this tastes delicious. You should totally check it. We went for lunch and met the woman who runs this place. She told us how she’d gone diving a couple of days prior and spear-fished 87 lionfish while diving. She educated us about how these fish are invasive, not from here and attack and kill native populations of fish. So it’s on your plate and no guilt! I ordered a whole one prepared to the chef’s liking. It came accompanied by mushy beans and some slaw and grilled and topped with some veggies I don’t even remember and seasoned deliciously. So good! There was a big, whole lionfish sitting on my plate and that was so cool and so yummy. If you’re in these parts, stop by for lunch. Where the frick else you gonna get to eat a lionfish?
