Seafood is a very popular food almost anywhere. About the only people that don't like shrimp are those that are allergic to seafood. El Shrimp Bucket in Cancun, QR is the perfect place to go for shrimp while living or vacationing in Cancun. Tourists that visited El Shrimp Basket loved the food and claimed their only regret was that they didn't stop there the first day of their vacation so they could have eaten there every day.
The take pride in the fact that they serve only the jumbo wild shrimp that they catch fresh daily off the Pacific coast by Mexico. They claim the taste is so much better than the shrimp that are farm-raised in other parts of the world. In addition to being bigger, wild Mexican shrimp are meatier with a firmer and tastier texture. The shrimp are more than just jumbo, with some being so big people could almost mistake them for small lobsters. Whether they're served plain, with lemon and butter or with one of their special sauces, once you eat at El Shrimp Bucket, you'll want to return time after time. They also serve the shrimp as accessories to other main seafood dishes.
The view from the restaurant is great as well as the staff being exceptionally friendly and helpful. The restaurant has been recently remodeled making the atmosphere even more fun. The local mascot is a shrimp cartoon. Shrimp may be their specialty, but it is not the only food on their menu. They also carry Squid, crayfish, snails, oysters and many varieties of fish. Some of their most recommended dishes are the three chilies and Rockefeller oysters with melted cheese and baked with spinach.
