We ate at Lorenzillo's while in Cancun in February 2009. My husband and I both ordered fillet mignon stuffed with lobster and shrimp with a bernaise sauce and it was delicious. The fillet mignon was so tender it could have been cut with a fork. I had read reviews that indicated the prices were steep but we found them to be typical of any tourist location. The restaurant sits on the water and outside dining with a fantastic view is available. We found the service to be good as well.

The waiter oversold us after we asked him several times what an accurate amount of Lobster would be for the two of us. We left a $45 lobster untouched as we were stuffed from the first one (which we split). Basically ruined what would have been a great dinner. Then when the waiter knew we were disappointed with the service he grabbed the receipt out of my hand and checked to see if we gave him a tip. We did leave him 10% and did speak to the manager who was very sorry. Go to Harry's. Much better service.

Two Stars for the View. The food was bland and overcooked. My lobster was very rubbery. The service was lacking most of the night. I would not return.

In over 12 years of visiting and dining in Cancun, I rate this restaurant the absolute worst. The lobster is small, tasteless and extremely overpriced as was everything on the menu. The wait staff was horrible. Not worth your time or money.

Beautiful atmosphere -- make sure to secure an outdoor table. As others have noted, it can be very pricey, particularly since they push lobster dishes that are no better than one can get in the States for much less. However, if you stick with local fish, which are less expensive and better prepared, you can do fine here.
