El Capitan - Tulum

It was chosen as a last minute decision and we were really happy we did it. Its very easy to get to from the tulum beaches, as its right on 15 when you come out of the state park. We needed a light lunch so we didnt feel too tired and they offered a good variety of seafood. It can be prepared in several different ways, fried, grilled, spicy, butter/garlic, etc. English was widely spoken. Cost was average for Tulum, especially right off the beaches.

This is a no-nonsense place for a breakfast with seafood. They also cook from the main menu during breakfast hours. I particularly enjoy their El Capitan tacos with shrimp. Find the most cheerful waiter, and you're good to go.

We eat dinner at a fish restaurant El Capitan, we order a fish fillet al diablo and a fish fillet with garlic, they serve it with rice and some vegetables, we pay 300 pesos. Light, quite tasty, but nothing special, it's not the best fish we've ever eaten.

Cheap eats. Food was good! The serving was huge! The server made a mistake by opening another bottle of coke, we told him we didn’t want it as no one ordered it. Later, it was still on the bill even though no one took or drink it

Llegamos aquí por casualidad, el restaurante es una "palapa" con mesas y sillas, entramos porque lo vimos muy auténtico. Nada más entrar nos atendió un camarero encantador, no recuerdo su nombre,¡una lástima!, nos recomendó que probáramos el ceviche que lo hacían muy rico, y efectivamente estaba increíble. También nos recomendó que pidiéramos algo de pescado ya que lo pescan aquí y es muy fresco, pedimos una mariscada para dos, la sirven con arroz blanco a parte. La verdad que las raciones son muy abundantes, no pudimos acabarnos todo. Se notaba que el producto era fresco, estaba todo buenísimo! Si venís a México tenéis que visitarles, es un auténtico restaurante Mexicano.
