We found this restaurant to be a lot more affordable than other restaurants on the island. The food was good and the fresh squeezed limeade is out of this world!! more

We couldn't find the Mexican restaurant we were looking for, so we stopped here. Huge selection at great prices. My husband got the California burrito on special for $4.99 with rice and beans, I got a plate with a taco,enchilada,guacamole, and bean chalupa for $6.99. they brought out a kind of skimpy bowl of delicious chips and their salsa was... more

We eat here almost every time we are in Port A. Not the fanciest place, but the freshness and value are hard to beat. Very kid friendly. We also like to drive through, get breakfast tacos and take them to the beach. My daughter loves the chicken enchiladas and will eat them for breakfast if she has the chance. The... more

Cancun is one of the places we visit when we're in Port A; we ate there last Tuesday night after taking the tour on the Scat Cat. As always, quick, friendly service, good food, EXCELLENT value. The 3 of us were stuffed for about $25. Very large menu-something for everybody including the kids. For dessert, try one of the Mexican... more

TripAdvisor still thinks this place is on Cotter st, but it is in a strip mall on 361. Really good food at reasonable prices more

On our first visit to Port A, we checked out Cancun based on great reviews. The food was excellent...especially for the prices (most entrees in $6 t0 $9 range). Great fajitas, shrimp, fresh ingredients, great corn tortillas, excellent salsa. It is in a strip mall, so the food is better than the atmosphere. Staff very friendly; they took great care... more

still great food, hot sauce, good margaritas but a lousy atmosphere.. They moved to a strip center and kept the retail store florescent lighting.. It's bright and impersonal. If you go for the take out or the drive thru it's hard to beat their Machacado or enchiladas... more

Ate here twice. Had the shrimp quesadillas that were the lunch special ($4.50) the first time and was surprised to see how loaded they were with shrimp - really good. Had the "Mikes plate" (#46 I think) which was sort of a chicken fajita kind of a dish with rice, beans, salad with a tomato and guacamole - boy was... more

I grew up in Central Texas, and I love Mexican food. After having Mexican food in many cities in Texas, other states, and even Europe, I feel like I know when something is fantastic, and Cancun is definitely that! I had the beef taco with two cheese enchiladas, and the beef was nice and chunky (not the generic taco bell-type... more
