El Moro

A favorite of divers and locals, it has been discovered by tourists due to its excellent food, good prices, and frequent mentions in guide books. 

It is a bit far from the center of town, but well worth the trip. 

Fresh seafood of all types, the seafood platter is huge and will feed two persons with average appetites. 

The giant Margaritas and piƱa coladas are good, but beware driving afterwards. 

Kids love the video games in the back.

Costa Brava

We have never had a bad meal here, whether it was breakfast, lunch or dinner. 

We get the same report from other Cozumel frequent visitors.

Breakfast for two including eggs, meat, beans, and coffee runs around $6–7 USD.

The conch and the lobster also get high marks as does the Mexican platter for two. 

Bring them your catch when you fish, for $2 USD they will cook it up and serve it with side dishes.

El Abuelo Gerardo

This is another family run restaurant on Cozumel; el Abuelo Gerardo means Grandfather Gerard, the patriarch. 

We have received mostly good reviews on this little place but have had both good and bad service here. 

Considering the reviews, we suggest you give it a try. 

You can either dine in the back garden or in the dining room where you can people watch. 

The lobster is priced in the teens and we enjoyed it when we ordered it.
