La Choza Del Puerto — Restaurant in Puerto Morelos

Friends referred us to this restaurant and glad we checked it out!

The wings were not only done perfectly, they cook the whole wing! Many other restaurants seperate the flat from the bulb portion and call that two wings.

It was Tuesday, so celebrated the day with Tacos El Pastor and 1 Tempura Fish Taco. The Fish one was a work of art and tasted even better. The creamy coleslaw under the fish was amazing. The El Pastor was also really good, although the meat was just a bit dry.

Definitely will make it a...

There tends to be occasional mosquitos here, they do have repellent to use or bring your own.

I would return...

On arrival we were ignored by the 3 staff busy having a conversation on their own, until the manager (?) shouted out to them. Our waiter was friendly, and mentioned a margarita special, turned out to be $11US for a very small glass, which came after the food. Had a couple tacos and they were very creamy, tasted ok but no crunch, not anywhere near the quality of others we had. Asked for bill and waiter forgot, another staff helped us out. $514 peso bill.
