it was our last night in cancun and we wanted some good authentic mexican food. their house fajitas were terrible, the appetizers so-so and very small, and carne asada was tough and flavorless. wish we skipped it.

Not True Mexican Food
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/13/05
I have been involved in Mexican cooking for more than 50 years and this menue appeals to the North American taste. It what you see on Cooking Channels at home.

Upon entering the restaurant, the staff was extremely courteous. The dinning experience was such that if I ever visit Cancun again, I will definately put El Mortero I my must do list.
