El Pulpo Maya - 97720 Río Lagartos

This place deserves a lot of credit they kept the plates of octopus coming in droves, we had to tell them to stop because we were too full, really nice people there, good value great spot for beers and pulpo

Food did not look appetizing. Filthy bathrooms. 2 stars because they have Wifi and the guy who helped us was extremely nice.

Great restaurant in Rio lagartos. Convenient, cheap and both the food and the drinks are delicious. The staff is super kind too.

Great service with friendly owner and waitress. We ordered for munch (at 4pm !) two ceviches and a fried octopus and got four extra plates of apetizers. They included octopus ceviche, fries meat, cucumbers and fish ceviche ! The dishes were huge and tasted awesome. It was the best lunch experience in rio lagartos

Absolute favourite restaurant in Rio Lagartos, and I have eaten them all. End to end experience is awesome. Quickly greeted by Beto , who grew to be more of a friend by end of meal, and was very fast with getting us everything we requested. Started with nice ice cold beverages and were brought out some nice botanas (fresh octopus ceviche and very tasty mole) that barely lasted once they hit the table they were so good. We had the fried fish pesca Frito (fried fish) which was cooked and seasoned to perfection, the garlic lobster which the serving was larger and fresher,and better done then any other restaurant in town (staple of Rio for me) and was about half the price of anywhere else. Can't recommend this place enough. Wish I could give Beto 10 stars .

At midday place was empty. Choice of dishes -very small. After leaving the menue waiter didn't show up for a long time. Seemed like kitchen was empty... So we left without trying the food.

Super nice, super friendly, super cheap ?

Arrived at opening time and it was empty. Slow service as all staff were busy on their cell phones. Chicken was bland but the cazon empanadas was really good. Jamaica is amazing. Loved the floor of seashells. Price was good.
