    We like to try other local restaurants and was wondering if anyone has a few recommendations, something higher end, possibly with ocean view? Let me know. Thanks

    Not ocean view, but old Cancun choice would be La Parilla for authentic Mexican, and La Habicuela for a more elegant experience. I would avoid most everything in the hotel zone.

    You're looking for Lorenzillo's, we go 2-3 times every trip. The food is fantastic (seafood mostly) and if you sit on the patio the view is perfect. Great wine list, if you're into that and the service is top shelf. We highly recommend it!

    Lorenzillo's with out a doubt. We go every time for years now. Great food and a wonderful atmosphere. Be sure to get a table outside if the weather is nice, you will love it.

    We found a great place - Hacienda el Mortero. The food was excellent and they had great margaritas! They have these cool iron skeletons out front, can't miss it!
