Caribeño

What to order

Caribeño is The Grand's beachside Caribbean seafood restaurant — the best ocean view of any sit-down dining venue at Moon Palace, with live music most evenings. Breakfast is buffet; lunch and dinner are à la carte. The menu is Mexi-Caribbean with heavy seafood emphasis: aguachile, char-grilled octopus, and whole fried fish are the dishes reviewers call out across platforms. Request a table facing the Caribbean Pool for the sunset and music combination.

• Fish & Shrimp Aguachile
  Diced fish and macerated shrimp in red chile adobo with cucumber, avocado, and lime — the most uniquely Caribbean-Mexican dish at Caribeño and the correct first order for seafood lovers.
• Char-Grilled Octopus with Adobo Sauce
  Served with charred habanero mayonnaise and pico de gallo — the most-reviewed dish at Caribeño; the one guests specifically name in TripAdvisor and travel blog reviews.
• Fried Whole Fish
  Crispy skin with pickled onion and charred habanero; the most rustic and satisfying main on the menu — order it if you want something dramatic and whole rather than portioned fillets.
• Surf & Turf Skewers
  Beef, chicken, and octopus on skewer — the best order when the table wants variety rather than committing to a single protein.
• Coconut Shrimp
  The accessible crowd-pleaser; order these as a starter while you wait for the heavier charred preparations to arrive.
