Choosing where to eat can be part of getting to know a city. Here we introduce the cooking at La Casa de la Mantarraya, the family roots behind it and the questions you might have before visiting. Start with a dish, explore the menu or use the practical information to plan a meal with someone else.
Get curious about stingray
If you have not tried it before, begin with the preparations on our menu. Tacos with tamarind sauce, pescadillas and dishes in a vizcaína sauce offer different ways to explore the house specialty. Visit our stingray tacos page for an introduction and a link to the full range of menu options.
Read beyond the dish name
A short name cannot tell you everything about a preparation. Check the description, number of pieces and accompaniments before ordering. Ask the team about complete ingredients or spice levels if those details matter to you. A quick conversation can help you choose a dish with a clearer idea of what to expect.
A meal outside the Hotel Zone
Our restaurant is on Avenida Xpuhil Sur in SM 19, within the city of Cancun. If you are staying elsewhere, check the location and directions before leaving. Browse the gallery for a look at the setting and decide who you would like to bring along.
Cooking with family roots
The restaurant's story draws on recipes passed through three generations of a family from the Yucatan Peninsula. Read our story to understand that connection and discover how stingray appears throughout the menu. There is more than one way to begin exploring the house specialties.
From a dish to a day out
Once you have an idea of what you would like to try, browse the complete menu and check specials and events. For a birthday or group meal, ask about availability and any conditions for your date. Send your name, preferred time and party size on WhatsApp to request a table, then wait for our team to confirm the details of your visit.
