I must be a terrible blogger as I didn't take any pictures of the actual restaurant itself, nor the food, but I do want to talk about how much fun we always seem to have there! I swear it is impossible to try and leave the place without having had a fantastic time. The staff is incredible, they greet you immediately, are attentive throughout your meal, and their prices are VERY reasonable. OH and the food!!!! The food is great. I highly recommend the Tuna Tostados, and what other than the Coconut Shrimp Bucket. DELICIOUS.
The Shrimp Bucket is located on the lagoon side, and has a beautiful view. There is both indoor and outdoor seating available. On a nice night we really enjoying sitting out on the patio, but on a warm day the A/C wins!!
Shrimp Bucket always serves a small cup of their shrimp soup and tostadas with dip(s) to start. It's very nice as you don't even need to order a starter if you don't want. If you do, I'd recommend their calamari, and/or guacamole. Realllly good.
Well, I'll let the few pictures I did take do the talking for me.... Next time your'e in Cancun I'd highly recommend stopping by the Shrimp Bucket for a bite to eat, and a nice drink on their patio!!! You won't regret it.

KfromMich- It`s a deal amiga!! Just convince hubby, and the rest will fall into place :) LOL!!
We spent one nite in Cancun on our recent 10-day trip to the area. We saw the Shrimp Bucket when were driving to our hotel, and then I read some good reviews online as we were sussing out dinner options for the night.
Despite my husband being slightly horrified at going to a cheesy-looking place called "EL" Shrimp Bucket, he acquiesced & we went, and shock of shocks-- it was really good! Service was great, food was good & not obnoxiously priced, which was an additional surprise. :) Who knew there are places in the Hotel Zone that are not a total rip?? ;)
Years ago we used to all go there after work (when I was still selling time share)and they had a great deal: beers, tequila and shrimp tacos and pescadillas (all you can eat and drink) for 99 pesos.I remember many a fun Tuesday afternoon sitting on their deck hanging with friends
Midwesterner - I know, right. It is one of those restaurants that is so cliche, but I love it. I am happy you guys gave it a shot! Heck, spend a day in Cancun and you have to do something touristy cheesy!! LOL!!!
Ashlie - That is too funny!! I remember, years ago heading to the old Carlos n´Charlies after work every day... How time flies when youre having fun ;) However,these days I doubt you can get anything in the HZ for 99 pesos all you can eat and drink! LOL!!!
