Isla Contoy - Cancún

This was the only place open for a sit down meal when we got to Mercado 24 around 6pm. It's mostly seafood, but did have a few chicken and beef options. I got the fried chicken, which is not what you would expect fried chicken to be if you're from the US. US fried chicken is breaded chicken here, or empanizado. So it came as a bone in chicken leg and thigh that was probably cooked on a skillet. It was a little dry, but they provide so many sauces that makes up for it. The fries were absolutely delicious, and it also comes with rice and a salad mix on the side. They also brought out some appetizers that were pretty good. Chips with this sauce thing that I have no idea what it was and these small spicy things too It was overall very nice!

This place looked intriguing and we were hungry and hot and sweaty. The owner greeted us warmly and we were seated promptly. He visibly cooled when we didn’t order any beer, we don’t drink much, and it went downhill from there. We ordered from the seemingly reasonably priced menu, but laughed to ourselves when the meagre portions arrived. I’m not actually sure if there was any chicken between the skin and the bones of my dish... Anyways, I certainly won’t be back. The 300+lb crooner they had singing could have cleared the room with his voice if the guests hadn’t have been famished!

Food is good beer is cold clean restrooms best in market 23 the prices at isla contoy are very good have taken my family there many times in last 20 years

After reading a review on Trip Advisor, we decided to eat at this restaurant. We got the seafood parillada for 4, even though there was only the 2 of us because it cost just a little bit more than the parillada for 2 and we were hungry. We got a very generous platter of fish, shrimp, octopus and calamari with fries, rice and tortillas. The service was good, the place was clean and the waiter spoke English. Our only regret was that we did not make it back for another meal at this restaurant.

De facil ubicacion, limpio y fresco, sirve solo pescado y mariscos los platillo son classico pero con buen sanzon, muy buen servicio y precio.
