The story of La Casa de la Mantarraya begins with family recipes from the Yucatan Peninsula. Three generations are part of the heritage behind our cooking. Today, our restaurant in Cancun brings that connection to the table through stingray specialties, seafood and a menu with room for different tastes.
The ingredient behind our name
Mantarraya means stingray, and you will find it in several sections of our menu. Tacos with tamarind sauce, pescadillas, tostadas, tapas, a baguette and a pizza each offer a different introduction. Main-course preparations provide another way to explore the ingredient that gives our restaurant its identity.
If you are deciding where to start, read about our stingray tacos and browse the complete menu. Compare the preparations, portions and accompaniments before choosing. You do not need to know the ingredient already to ask questions or try something new.
Yucatan roots, a home in Cancun
Our family story is rooted in the peninsula; the restaurant is located in Cancun's Supermanzana 19. If you are staying in the Hotel Zone, visiting us means heading into the city for your meal. Our contact page has the address and map link to help you plan the journey.
The table can bring together different appetites. One person might choose a house specialty while another prefers pasta, pizza or another seafood dish. Sharing a meal is a chance to discover those preferences, talk about the food and make time for the people you came with.

Our terrace and Caribbean atmosphere accompany the food. Browse the restaurant photos to see the space before arriving. If you are arranging a celebration, explore specials and events and ask the team about the conditions for your date.
