While staying next door at the Privilege Aluxes with my son and a buddy, we frequented Jax for buckets of SOL and some good munchies. LOts of screens, watched the NHL playoffs and the NBA playoffs at the same time. Service is good and the Beer is ice cold. What more do sport fans want. Gracias to Jax staff.

If you want a great view of the street and/or beach, Jax is the place. Sit up high on the balcony, or on street level, inside or outside they have it all. Cheeseburger was excellent, and I did not come to Isla to eat cheeseburgers!! but after a week I was really craving one and another traveler I met recommended... More

(This is the 2nd time that I've tried to post a review, for some reason my last one didn't post!?) I love going to Jax Bar and Grill! We go at least once a week and have since we moved to the island in November. The drinks are wonderful and the beer is the cheapest that we've seen anywhere on... More

The service is very slow,the washrooms are filthy and not worrking half the time.the location is the best part but there really isnt a bad location on the island. hopefully the owner isnt there when you visit,she is very loud and quite rude. The food is so,so and slightly expensive compared to better value resturants on Isla Mujeres.

We had a couple meals at Jax while on Ilsa Mujeres. The first night we arrived we went and I had the coconut shrimp appetizer. Very large portion and very tasty. John had the Texas fries and thoroughly enjoyed them. We visited twice again for dinner and both times we had the chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes and they... More

We stopped at Jax for a late breakfast one morning as we were out walking around. They offer a lot of nice choices for breakfast as well as wonderful fruity style cocktails. We really enjoyed the huevos rancheros with the fresh guacamole side. The yellow bird is a very fresh and fruity brunch cocktail. Prices were average for the island.... More

I want to go on record saying that Jax Bar & Grill was one of our favorite places in Isla Mujeres. It is a great "Happy Hour" locations with great prices and selection. This is the only location that we found where you could watch the NFL draft on english speaking ESPN, the Major League Baseball Network and NHL Hockey... More
