Cancun Mexican Grill Saint Johns

Drink prices were reasonable food was a little expensive, well worth the price. I feel! Will be returning

I understand the raising of prices because a lot of places have had to. But when your prices go up and the quality of food goes down that I can’t support. The last time I went into this restaurant I ordered the same thing I always get, Ismael special. It’s basically chicken, shrimp, rice and cheese. When it came out it didn’t have any shrimp on it so I brought it to the bartenders attention and he said it’s not supposed to. I asked for a menu and he dropped it off and walked away. By the time he came back and I pointed out the description in the menu I was already halfway done with my meal. I told him to not worry about bringing the shrimp now since I’m almost done and just discount what he thinks the cost of the shrimp would’ve been. I had about 1/4 of it left when he brought out the shrimp, the shrimp that I had to convince him I was missing and I was almost done eating anyways, needless to say I didn’t use the shrimp. Last night 12/13/24 we ordered takeout and I got my usual again. This time I did receive the shrimp but it tasted off and the chicken was extremely overcooked and dry. So like I said, I don’t mind paying higher prices when the quality is there but unfortunately I will not be patronizing this establishment anymore. On top of that their sodas are $4.99 which is double anywhere else in town and even pricier than upscale restaurants in Lansing.

Great food. Great service. The staff are amazing. We've tried many dish all have been excellent. Highly recommend.

Cancun is easy to find and at a great location. We were seated immediately. Our server, was incredibly polite and patient. The food was out to our table in what felt like a very short time and it was delicious. I ordered taquitos Mexicanos. I asked server to surprise me because I couldn’t decide between chicken of beef. He was so smart, he had them prepare 2 of each!! That was incredibly thoughtful and a great customer service!! It was served with very delicious beans and rice too! Hubbs got the taco salad. He wasn’t impressed by the size of the salad. It seems as if the taco salads are relatively small, but it was good he said. Our waiter kept drinks full and the table clear! The prices are fair and reasonable also. And it’s an absolutely beautiful restaurant. I love the murals, the tables, the chairs! Great experience!

*Update* - As of 10/26/19 they are under new management. Lots of menu choices. Always a couple of specials that are lower priced for the day. Food is nicely prepared and tastes great. Owner and staff are always friendly and accommodating. Takeout from next door is also very good. Different from what is available at the restaurant. * Update* - unfortunately the take out next door did not do well and is now out of business.
