Playa Lancheros Restaurant 
¢-$$, Mexican, Isla Mujeres
Fodor's Review:
One of Isla's best and most authentic restaurants, this casual eatery under a big palapa roof is worth taking a short taxi ride for. It's right on the beach (the fish doesn't come any fresher than this), and its menu fuses traditional Mexican and regional cuisine. The house specialty is the Yucatecan tikinchic (fish marinated in a sour-orange sauce and chili paste then cooked in a banana leaf over an open flame) -- and there are also delicious tacos and grilled fish, fresh guacamole, and salsa. The food may take a while to arrive, so bring your swimsuit, order a beer, and take a dip while you wait. On Sunday there's music, dancing, and the occasional shark wrestler.

My first meal here was great but last year I got cold tikinchic and the last time it was good. You have to guard against overcharging here. And I vowed not to return because a young child was selling toilet paper at a stand outside the restrooms. Child labor is as low as it gets and it was on a school day. This place used to be really great but now its so-so.
