La Vibora, located in Plaza Cascadas, San Antonio Cucul, is a hidden gem for seafood enthusiasts in Merida, Mexico. This charming restaurant has garnered rave reviews for its exceptional offerings and attentive service. Patrons can’t stop praising the pulpo (octopus), prepared to perfection with butter and garlic, leaving even the most skeptical diners enchanted by its melt-in-your-mouth texture.
As Davey Boy highlights, the owner, Caesar, adds a personal touch that enhances the overall experience. The complimentary hot shrimp soup is another delightful prelude that sets the stage for a memorable meal. Moreover, the mixed ceviche and coconut shrimp, as enjoyed by Alaviel Cervera, showcase the vibrant culinary flair and generous portions that La Vibora is known for.
While the atmosphere is intimate, the impeccable service shines through, making you feel welcomed from the moment you step in. Despite a few mentions of distracting music, the overall dining experience is highly praised, with Maru Ulloa noting the excellent prices for the quality offered. If you're a fan of seafood, don't miss out on La Vibora—it's a must-visit in Merida that promises to delight your palate.

Outstanding Pulpo! Some of the best we've ever had! They begin with a shot glass of hot shrimp soup- amazing! The octopus is flash sauteed in butter and garlic and it melts in your mouth! The pescado Xcatic is their own mojo also fabulous! A must do in Merida if you are a fan of octopus! I was not until i tried it here.

Excellent place! It is located in a small square with parking. The place is not very big, however it has space for several separate tables. The attention from the moment you arrive is excellent. They have a good menu, large portions and excellent prices. We were 2 people, we had 1 beer and an orangeade, some tuna toast and a large shrimp ceviche. The bill was 505 before tip. The toasts were delicious and the shrimp ceviche has a very rich seasoning and is a good quantity for 2 people. We returned without hesitation. Recommendation: go with time to eat and enjoy a table with drinks.

The food is delicious. Love the complimentary caldo. Staff amazing. Just please consider lowering the bad music a little bit in the daytime. It’s too much!

An incredible place to eat fresh seafood, not to mention that incredible salmon that they have as a special and a pineapple stuffed with seafood that wow... Highly recommend the New Tuna Chicharroncitos, really finger-licking good... An excellent place.
