Mi Ranchito - Cuernavaca

They have a great selection of food and drinks (seafood is so delicious) prices are the best and the owners are very friendly .a very pleasant atmosphere, highly recommended.

Positiw: nice cold beer in frosted sauces, huge menu (something for all including vegetarian,) great service and awesome guacamole! fun atmosphere in the middle of the market. negatiw: grilled fish was huge, but boiled (fresh, though vegetarian enchiladas inexorable, salsas a little watery (but habanero was something...else bottom line: come here for the cold beer and guacammole. then they go elsewhere for their second curs.

We searched for a recommended restaurant in the center of mercado 28, which I suspect was the great seafood place in the middle, but as the waiter it seemed not to worry about, even to look at us, we went back to the small. man who obviously owned his restaurant and offered us free cocktails (non-alcoholic for the children) and who had a series of meeres and Maya kitchens. all very tasty. bier was also 2x1. during the meal we have a totopos, friijoles and Habanero sauce on the table, and everything was delicious and well cooked. really enjoyed everything.

We visited market and stumbled into this restaurant after many offers of places to eat. We stopped to try the shrimp cocktail (not what we expected. but absolutely delicious) and ended up with an entire meal. It was all great and the prices were decent....We don't love market 28, but enjoyed this stop.

Visited the famed Mercado 28 in Cancún. We've read a lot about this local market. There was a lot of writeups about this biggest and bestest restaurant in the middle of the courtyard, Le Cejas. We visited there the first day. I ordered raw oysters...to start, and they didn't have any. I was somewhat disappointed, but it's not a deal-breaker. I ordered a mixed seafood stuffed in half a pineapple. I should have asked how it was prepared. As it turned out, the seafood was floated in some cheese mix. Not that it did not taste good, but it's just too rich after a few bites. The morale of the story is, knowing how it's prepared can make or break a dinning experience. We went back to the Mercado the second day to explore some more. This time we ended up (or shall I say, ushered by one of the vendors that lined the alleyways to the foodcourt) to one of the many open row' restaurants, Mi Ranchito. They wanted to know what I was interested in. Seafood I said. They wanted to know if I am familiar with Mayan cusine, and I am not. So they suggested this fish. What they heck, right? Traveling is all about trying new things. Sure, why not? By the way, do you have any raw oysters (My husband kept telling me that it's not oyster season I got a Let me check respond. That didn't sound reassuring, so I was following his every move. There was a flurry of activities he was waving one guy over; who then got into a discussion with a lady, who then disappeared for a while and came back with yet another person... Well, Mi Ranchito did not have any osysters! BUT, they took the trouble to tap into the surrounding restaurants to find out who might have it. I got my raw oysters served with a few varieties of homemade hot sauce (because I told them I LOVE hot sauce). It was outstanding! Then the fish, cooked with Mayan seasonings arrived. I wish I remembered the name of the dish. All I can say is that the seasoning is red, and it's marinated right into the fillet nothing watery; not spicy, but oh the flavor it's ever so moist and the cooked texture was perfect! You may like seafood, or you may be a meat person. I can't say if everything on their menu is equally delightful, but together with the service they presented that day, Mi Ranchito is certainly worth a try.
