Pescado Con Limón — Restaurant in Cancún

(JUNE 2025)

Dont be confused to the Pescado con Limon RESTAURANT (on the left) and the Pescado Limon MARKET (on the right).

Was craving fried fish and randomly found this gem of a restaurant next to Mercado 28. The servers were so nice and attentive and accommodated to us greatly, even tho we don't speak Spanish! We walked in around lunch time and we were basically the only ones there.

The food was fresh and serving was huge!! There was only 2 of us and food was perfect for us. Altho their rice serving was very small, as an Asian who likes rice, it was a disappointment but can't complain!

Will likely comeback here again the next time I visit Cancun!

We had aqua de horchata and agua de jamaica, grilled fish and seafood paella. The wait crew were very friendly and helpful even with the language differences. Part of the restaurant is air-conditioned and part al fresca. They are located at the corner of Mercado 28...
