In my Fodor's guide book, the restaurant "John Gray's Kitchen", the chef was formerly from Ritz Carlton. Known for use of local freshest ingredients with an international palate. It is Puerto Morelos' gourmet vs local cuisine establishment. "La Suegra" meaning mother-in law and is also related to Chef John Gray. This restaurant creation here is however, Mexican cuisine.
"Los Pelicanos" is a family owned seafood restaurant. FYI, heard somewhere in my exploration that the shellfish are shipped in. So stick to the fresh fish of the day! This restaurant also offers a variety of 4 hour day trips that include fishing, snorkeling & cooking at the restaurant. To take this tour you need to call at minimum a day in advance. Another Mexican restaurant is yet one of Puertos Morelos' oldest is "Posada Amor" Live music at night, memorable whole fish dinner (Diana's favorite) & a rich seafood bisque is their highlight that was noted. And finally, I least leave out a restaurant for Randy & Russell, a "hole in the wall" restaurant 'Loncheria El Tio". Yucantan specialties such as "salbutes", flour tortilla, shredded turkey,cabbage, tomatoes & picked onions and for Russell "panuchos", beans chicken, avaocado & pickled onions on a flour tortilla. Sounds like an after bar survival feast, right boys?
Oh, as far as a bar recommendation in Puerto Morelos? "Bara Bara"seems the best ...a nightclub and serves martinis as well as beers. Personally my thought is stay at the resort, it's guaranteed to be cheaper and you can stumble into bed a lot easier.
Also if you want to do more then just eat, perhaps Mexican cooking is up your alley? Check out the link Little Mexican Cooking School . There is also some additional recommendations as to where to eat in town on their website, worth a look as they highlight some pointers on the establishments. If 'venturing beyond the resort is your thing.
