Paprika Mexican & Caribbean kitchen — Restaurant in San Miguel de Cozumel

Definitely not recommendable (March 2022). Yes, the food was tasty. However, it was overpriced for a place next to a loud street with a street restaurant look. It was the only place in all of the Yucatan peninsula where we paid 80p for a beer! The menue had stickers with changed prices that were only half readable and differed from the official menue that was used for the bill, which then was a shock of course. The bill also included a handwritten service fee/tip that was miscalculated first and even after correction overly high in local comparison. Since the tip is generally only a recommendation in Yucatan, we rounded the sum up in a culturally appropriate way, but not covering the full suggested tip sum. The service lady perceived the hand calculated tip as mandatory, so she stopped talking to us and basically kicked us out. Unprofessional place, which we would...

The first time I came my cab driver recommended this place when I asked him to take me & my friend to a place that was chill, relaxing & authentically Mexican. This place delivered 100%! So much so that I had to come back again before I left Cozumel! The food is absolutely amazing! The dishes are fresh, filling & made with love.Try the frozen hibiscus mezcal cocktail & I promise you won’t be satisfied with just one! The service is outstanding! Everyone is genuinely friendly ,attentive & if you go more than once they actually remember you which is amazing for a restaurant near a cruise terminal. Paprika is guaranteed satisfaction & a meal that will last you for the rest of the day! When I come back to Cozumel I will be making a beeline...

The food was great! I’ve worked at restaurants and can tell the quality of food by looking into the kitchen a bit and yes, I could tell it was going to be good 👍🏻

The service was a bit slow but they didn’t know we had a time constraint (some of us were there to eat before diving) but they would have probably accommodated us better with time should they have known about it.

I had Ceviche and it was delicious. My partner had fish tacos and he still talks about how good it was.

I think they are owned by the same company or owners as the Tikila bar across the street but their food was priced a touch bit more than the bar(ceviche was about 30-40pesos more at Paprika). The tip was also already added...
