Fresh Caribbean seafood, signature sushi and wine beneath the palms of Avenida Nader.
Every day · 7:00 am – 11:00 pm
MERO 18 takes its name from its own front door: Calle Mero #18, in the green heart of downtown Cancún. This is where the Caribbean's catch gets celebrated every single day — oysters shucked to order, aguachiles with real bite, ceviches, tiraditos and signature sushi that runs Japanese technique through a Mexican soul. All of it under palm fronds, warm light and the hum of the urban jungle at Mezcal Boutique Hotel.
One garden, three completely different moods. We open early and close late, every day of the week.
Start the day surrounded by green: coffee, fresh juice and morning plates with a Caribbean soul. Our brand-new breakfast menu is about to launch — coming very soon.
Golden hour at the raw bar: oysters, ceviches, aguachiles and tostadas with a glass of Mexican wine or an ice-cold beer under the palms.
Low light, craft cocktails and sushi made for sharing. The long, lingering dinner that the best corner of Avenida Nader deserves.
A short, honest menu that moves with whatever the sea sends in: a raw bar of oysters and clams, aguachile in three styles, tiraditos, tostadas and signature rolls. On the menu page, hover over any dish to see its photo — and click to view it full-screen.
The raw bar's greatest hits — each with its own fan club on TripAdvisor.
The house favorite: fresh tuna, avocado, chives and jalapeño.

MERO 18 lives inside Mezcal Boutique Hotel, the jungle oasis of Avenida Nader. And while it beats to the hotel's rhythm, its doors are open to absolutely everyone: you don't need to be a guest to grab a seat at the bar, order a dozen oysters and stay through dessert.
Dine beside the cenote-style pool, between walls overtaken by greenery and light that filters down through the leaves. The jungle, in the heart of the city.
