About

At the base of the Renaissance Cancun Resort and Marina is Litoral Cancún. Award-winning Chef Ricardo Muñoz Zurita oversees this posh restaurant, creating exquisite Mexican cuisine and seafood. 

Located off the Blvd. Kukulkan in the Marina Puerto Cancún Shopping Center the eatery is known for its fresh flavors, welcoming atmosphere, and contemporary twists on traditional Mexican and seafood dishes. 

What makes Litoral Cancún special is its commitment to quality and creativity. The menu showcases fresh, locally sourced ingredients that highlight the best of the Yucatan Peninsula. 

Additionally, Litoral is passionate about preserving Mexico's coastal cuisine by supporting sustainable fishing. This conservation measure ensures the preservation of oceans and fishing communities for future generations.

As Executive Chef, Ricardo Muñoz Zurita creates a menu rich with ancestral recipes that feature regional spices, vegetables, meat, and seafood. Every dish, from classic ceviche to innovative fusion dishes, delivers bold and unbeatable flavors. 

The modern design and lively vibe make it ideal for a relaxed dinner or an evening out with friends. With a mix of indoor and patio seating, there's an atmosphere for any occasion.

Central to key attractions like Playa Tortugas, it makes planning a dinner after ferrying to Isla Mujeres for a day. Imagine a day at beautiful Playa Norte and fun-filled Garrafon Park, followed by a tantalizing meal at Litoral. It's the perfect ending to a memory-making day. 

Whether you're visiting for the beaches or the culture, adding Litoral Cancún to your itinerary is a decision you won't regret. 

Vibe 

The sign above the entrance sets the tone. Its turquoise backlight of the signage evokes images of Cancun’s tepid waters. Images of playful dolphins and days relaxing in the sun come to mind. 

This imagery continues as you enter, where the interior merges sophistication with warmth. The vaulted ceiling and vast indoor seating area fuse clean architectural lines with natural wooden finishes. The chic yet cozy atmosphere offers comfortable seating while subtle decor draws inspiration from the ocean. 

Dining al fresco on the patio offers unobstructed views of the marina’s waterway. During daylight, diners bask in the refreshing Caribbean breeze, while after sunset, the mood shifts with twinkling string lights and the sky rich with stars. 

The vibe at Litoral Cancún is energetic yet welcoming, making it a prime spot for vacationers looking to unwind after a day of sun-soaked adventures. 

Whether dining with friends, enjoying a romantic evening or savoring exceptional cuisine, the ambiance will complement your Cancun meal.

Litoral Cancún: Menu & Drinks 

Exploring Chef Ricardo Muñoz Zurita's menu is like strolling along Mexico's vast, stunning shorelines. 

The fresh seafood and raw bar feature oysters on the half shell and stone crab claws from Campeche. Whether you choose as starters or your main course, the freshness of the seafood will astound you.

Chef Zurita flexes his culinary muscles with the Black Aguachile Scallops and Shrimp Ceviche. This twist on a Peruvian classic features a deep-roasted black citrus sauce that elevates the seafood's flavor to dizzying heights.

Fresh seafood reigns supreme at Litoral, from the day's catch to shellfish to octopus. Cooking techniques and spices are equally vast, giving diners plenty of options to please their palate and diet.

The menu offers other entree choices since not everyone enjoys seafood. After a round at Golf Puerto Cancun, celebrate your game with one of the Chef's Specials like the Chipotle Amor. A mouthwatering chipotle chili sauce complements either top choice beef fillet, catch of the day, or shrimp. 

The drink menu is equally impressive, with craft cocktails, beer, wine, and non-alcoholic options. But what makes it a gem amongst other Cancun eateries is the mezcal offerings. If you've wanted to explore this smoky spirit, Litoral is the place to be. With a map showing where each mezcal originated, you receive a history and geography lesson with your samples or flights. 

Dining at Litoral Cancún offers an immersive culinary experience that enhances a Mexico getaway. Whether celebrating a special occasion or seeking a waterfront dining experience, you'll remember this dining experience long after your vacation.
