Description:
This longtime CancĂșn favorite hasn't changed much over the years. Lobster remains the star, and part of the appeal is selecting your dinner out of the giant lobster tank set in the lagoon (Lorenzillo's sits right on the lagoon under a giant palapa roof). A dock leads down to the main dining area, and when that's packed, a wharf-side bar handles the overflow. You'll find a large captain's wheel at the entrance to this nautical-themed restaurant. To start, I recommend El Botin, which consists of two soft- shell crabs breaded and fried to perfection. Good bets for the entree include lobster (which comes prepared in any of 20 different ways), shrimp stuffed with cheese and wrapped in bacon, the Pescador (Caribbean grouper prepared to taste), and steak and seafood combinations. Desserts include the tempting crepes suzette, prepared tableside. Lorenzillo's is as popular with families as it is with couples looking for lagoon-side romance. It's connected by a walkway to Limoncello, the waterfront Italian restaurant next door.
