El Varadero

If you dream of sitting on the dock of a bay, sipping on a mojito with live salsa music and delicious Cuban food … El Varadero is the place for you!

This little hidden gem is really off the beaten track, located mid-island, away from the hustle and bustle of the busier areas of Isla Mujeres, this relaxed and quieter little spot is the perfect place to chill out. Watch as yachts cruise by and enjoy wonderful seafood and authentic Cuban dishes.

Those on boats and yachts can even dock up and get off and head straight into this restaurant to enjoy the fun Caribbean/Cuban ambiance on offer.

Finding this restaurant is a little harder by golf cart or walking as it is so hidden away. Turn right before the Modelorama on Avenida Rueda Medina (before GreenVerde and Taqueria Bohemia) and follow the road around past Casa Buceo.

Enjoy some classic Cuban cuisine and seafood, including dishes such as ropa vieja (shredded or pulled stewed beef) , fricase de pollo (chicken fracissee), tortas Cubanas (Cuban sandwich), shrimp, squid, fresh fish and more...
