Puerto Morelos Restaurant Information 

We are very lucky to have so many outstanding restaurants in Puerto Morelos. Next to the reef and the beach, we love our restaurants. Obviously, seafood is a specialty as it is caught daily by our town’s many fishermen, but we have a wide variety.

We have been keeping track of our many restaurants for many years. It’s not easy, as places pop up and disappear constantly. Here is a fairly complete list of our places, their hours, contact info, map link, menu and the day they are closed. We’ve also provided a list of recently closed places at the end of each section so that you don’t fruitlessly search for a closed place.
Check our online map for exact locations.  Click here to download a printer-friendly version of this page.
