Cwolf Posted February 2, 2007 #3 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Its been a couple years, but I always liked Carlos n Charlies. It can get a little lively there but its a fun place and I always liked the food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruce-r Posted February 3, 2007 #4 Share Posted February 3, 2007 Its been a couple years, but I always liked Carlos n Charlies. It can get a little lively there but its a fun place and I always liked the food.IMO, there are much, much better choices for dinner than C & C's. If you are in town, near the Plaza, there are a number of good choices for dinner. And I don't mean the touristy Pancho's Backyard although plenty of people seem to like it as well. Christi's Restaurant List is a good place to start. From that list I can personally recommend: Camilos, Sonora Grill, and La Choza I'd very much like to try Especias as they were not yet reopened after wilma the last time we were in Cozumel. One restaurant not on the list is La Conchita Del Caribe, but you'd need to take a taxi there. Seafood is their speciality and because it is a mostly locals place, prices are reasonable.

lamom Posted February 4, 2007 #6 Share Posted February 4, 2007 We've been to Pancho's Backyard twice. Always good. Check out their website. They have a coupon for a free margarita (with entree purchase) that you can print out. panchosbackyard.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We ate at La Choza and it was wonderful. If we go back to Cozumel I would love to eat there again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ea_iii Posted March 12, 2007 #12 Share Posted March 12, 2007 :rolleyes: La Choza get's my vote!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtdukes Posted March 14, 2007 #13 Share Posted March 14, 2007 I'm jealous... I was hoping we'd be there at dinner, but we leave at 5. From previous trips, we HIGHLY recommend La Casa Mission. It's about an $8 cab ride and less touristy and SOOOO authentic. Try googling it - I was able to find some stuff about it the other day for a friend. The restaurant is actually on a huge wrap-around covered porch at the owner's residence. Tropical gardens surround, mariaci band that plays IN TUNE and wonderful food,drinks and service.... A+++++! Try it, you'll love it! vtdukes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Island Annie Posted March 15, 2007 #14 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Another vote for Lachoza. They have a very "lively" atmosphere, EXCELLENT food, and are located very near to the downtown area. As an added bonus, thier prices are also very reasonable. (Be sure to try thier frozen avacado pie for desert) it's DELICIOUS. Enjoy!

czmjacq Posted March 18, 2007 #15 Share Posted March 18, 2007 La Choza is good if you want to try some authentic Yucatecan food - if you like Seafood my vote is for Prima's just about 1/2 block up on Rosada Salas - upstairs. Just on the south side of the plaza. Their crab-stuffed shrimp au gratin can't be beat!! They normally open around 4pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For seafood, I like Guido's. They're right on the main drag near the northern edge of downtown. Also, they're the closest restaurant to one of the marinas so they get first dibs on all the good stuff!:D Not cheap, but so goooood! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
