Visiting Cancun for 6 nights in June, we enjoyed Lorenzillo's at the beginning, middle, and end of our trip. Their lobster, garlic sauce, and fettuccineis AMAZING and the service and views compliment these. We are planning a trip for the New Year and will return at least once! more

We read the yeas and nays of this restaurant and decided to give it a try. We eat early in the evenings (7-8PM) and because of that, the place was nearly deserted. By the time we finished dinner, it had filled up quite nicely and had that buzz that popular places produce. The service, food and ambience were great along... more

The food is not terrific, but the staff was great and the decor is exquisite. We went to Lorenzillos for my birthday and the staff was so sweet. The lobser was good, not great, but the place was PACKED! Definately a tourist spot and the taxi drivers know that. I loved the look of this place and I was satisfied. more

The view from Lorenzillo's is fantastic. My husband and were in Cancun for 7 days and we went to Lorenzillo's twice. We sat right on the water and were able to feed the fish. The sunset was very romantic and that is why we spent our last night there as well as our first. We had the lobster, salmon, ceviche,... more

Just ok.

Definitely not the best place to dine in Cancun. If you are looking for traditional Mexican fare in the same price range with far better service and atmosphere, go to La Habichuela (Centro, NOT the one on the strip). At Lorenzillo's, the staff acts as though they are doing you a favor by "allowing" you to dine there. The food... more

They asked if they could take our picture and then tried to charge us $15.00 for it. The food was good, but not the best in the area. The view is spectacular. Service was good. more

Our taxi driver recommended this place as we drove past on the way from the airport to the hotel. Then our concierge told us it was very popular. So, we tried it. The place is a tourist trap! Pirate standing by the entrace, huge lobster statues, even a gift shop. We should have walked off when we saw these. But,... more

We tried this restaurant again at the urging of our concierge of the hotel we stayed at. He assured that they have new owners and got rid of all the rude staff there. But we did not commit until we looked around, we don't believe anything employees tell us in Cancun. Sorry but we've been lied to to much by... more

This place is VERY expensive not only because its in the Hotel Zone but just because it can be. Local lobster for $40 ? ripoff. Avoid , service is ok and they ask you to fill out a survey before you get your check probably becuase you will not be able to fill it out with your eyeballs hanging out... more
