Pescador Menu: Occidental at Xcaret Destination
This is the one a la carte restaurant that we were unable to try, not that we didn’t want to! Since we were staying 7 nights, we were only allowed to make 4 a la carte dinner reservations. Unfortunately, this one did not make the cut. However, looking at the Pescador menu, I am disappointed that we had to eat at the main buffet instead. In our opinion, the main buffet left much to be desired! Based on the menu, Pescador offers an array of fresh seafood dishes.
