Chilpayas - Benito Juarez

We really enjoyed our lunch and all the little touches such as the drink at the end. They couldn't do enough to make us feel welcome, thank you, we will be back.

We found this place because we were in the area and we loved it so much that we came twice in our 4-day trip in Cancun. This resto is located in Puerto Morelos and takes approximately 25 min to drive to but it was definitely worth it getting away from the hustle in the city! The restaurant owner was one of the most wonderful people we met in Mexico including his really kind wife which were both hands on in running their eatery. When we were dining in their cozy restaurant we felt we were back home in the Philippines. To top it off, we loved the toritos drink that they offered us. Since we're starting to travel more, we will always remember the beautiful country of Mexico thanks to the delicious food of Chilpayas. Please support the local restos and enjoy the warm hospitality that they offer. We would not hesitate to go back!

I went here by myself because I was only in town for one night. I found it on a quick Google search of the area. I was not disappointed! It is clean, the menu is in Spanish so the hostess actually offered to explain the entire menu to me! She was so patient and very kind.Everything sounded so good I ordered two entries, and have no regrets!Also all of the water they use in the kitchen is filtered and safe for tourists. My only problem after eating here was how full was!!

Finally made it there and wow, it was worth the wait. # of us ordered 1/2 kilo of Coconut Shrimp. (all the shrimp varieties can be ordered by the order $140 pesos or by the 1/2 kilo $240 pesos, or by the kilo but not sure of that price) 2 of us were big eater and we still could not eat them all. Perfectly cooked coconut shrimp served with a smokey tamarind sauce that was heavenly. I have lived here for 14 years and this restaurant with it's Veracruz influence is nby far the best seafood I have tasted here. On top of all that, the owners are a delight. Friendly, eager to please plus active in the community. I will be back often.

As soon as we entered we have been greeted and straightaway felt very welcome. We went with owners recommendations ordering Lobster and **** which were serve with original slightly spicy but not to overpowering sauce. Our kids had a fab time in the kids area also well looks after by the restaurant owner and we were enjoying our quiet dinner with the local cuisine. Well worth it very tasty and good value for money!
