The King -Tacos y Mariscos- — Restaurant in Quintana Roo

Been walking past this place since it opened and finally stopped in to try. Mexican wife and me loved it. She is very picky with Mexican food and said it was simply delicious. We tried a few things and kept ordering more.

I will say one thing I hate tipping in Mexico because they expect a tip without any service. Here you actually get incredible service. First time in two years someone came by to see if we needed anything and it was from 3 different people. Their non alcoholic drinks were delicious and they have a great beer selection with big bottles of my favorite beers (at a great price). Will be adding this place to our regular stops.

Quick update. We now been here a thousand times since my original review and it never disappoints. Did the Pulpo tostada and the tostada de atun (not the special one) is to die for. Please come here and eat. The one is town on the main street is nowhere close to this and we loved that place before coming here.

One little detail, they include the tip on your bill and I'm not in favor of any place that does this, so I will stop coming to this place until they change this practice. Tip SHOULD be voluntary, and it's based on the service you received, so I'm pretty sure many people would give good tips since you guys have good service. Just be aware of this so you don't leave a second tip by mistake after you...

Absolutely phenomenal mariscos, beverages, cocktails, and more. Everything is super fresh and beautifully prepared & presented. Gorgeous array of fresh salsas with a nice little amuse bouche to start. Fantastic service, and a comfortable, stylish venue. We have been here many times, and it is always consistently excellent. Get several plates to share. Favorites include the tiradito, fresh atún starter, tostada roca and the tostada "la chiquis" (very spicy!). Ceviches are also excellent, the Acapulco being...
