I recently went to Cancun Mexican Grill for a field trip with my Spanish class. The food here was great. I had the fish tacos and they were really good. The churros were excellent. Everyone who went enjoyed their food. The service here is great too. This is a place that I would like to revisit in the future.
We LOVE Cancun! Best service and staff. They always accommodate us and the food is wonderful. Large sizes you definitely get your moneys worth and best fajitas we've had in a long time. 10/10 great spot on be river to bring your family.
Food, atmosphere, service is wonderful. Spot on! Great location! I had the tropical quesadilla (minus shrimp), hubby had the chimichanga ... recommended!
We enjoyed our meal here. We were able to sit outside under the awning so it was perfect on a nice day. I got enchiladas and my bf got tacos. Both were good, but not amazing. I got a regular margarita he got the more expensive gold one. I tried his, it was actually better then mine. Service was pretty good, the language barrier makes it challenging, we had to ask for things a few times before they showed up, like water and silverware. But all in all a good experience.
Great customer service. Food came out very quickly. The flavor of the Al Pastor tacos was amazing. You will definitely not regret a trip to Cancun! I'd definitely recommend and return when I'm in Cincinnati again.
Today's a busy day, it's Mother's Day, a beautiful warm sunny day, and I'm sure the busiest Sunday this year for this location of Cancun. Staff was working hard and it was clearly more difficult today to keep up. My party of two sat outside. No server addressed us for 20 minutes. Other tables were seated and orders gotten before us. We went inside to the manager and he immediately took care of us the rest of the stay. He also started helping many others after seeing one girl couldn't do it all herself. He worked his tail off and it showed. Food was great as always and you were very attentive to my tables needs. Thank you sir, whoever you are. Keep being awesome !
Got the steak fajita special and it was huge! Including the sides it was enough to feed the boyfriend and I. We each got a margarita on the rocks and they were both fantastic. They bring out complimentary chips and salsa with your own personal dipping bowls! The employees here are hilarious and the service is fast. They have little treats at the front if you want desert. This place is huge and gives a resort vibe. Will be back soon!!
So I had never been to Newport on the Levee before (how I've lived here over a year and haven't been I'm not sure). I went with friends on a Friday night and was impressed with how spacious Cancun is. I'm sure the outdoor seating in the summer is amazing! The staff was so friendly and you can tell they've got a great community. I was also feeling like I was in Cancun because it was a bit warm and humid inside. I always appreciate the chips and salsa at Mexican restaurants. I ordered just the fried ice cream because I had already ate supper. It's pretty big and yummy! Definitely meant to share. Fun place, clean, nice decor. Excited to come again in the summer.
