Eat the flan first? It’s all good at Cancun LEO's Eats with Robin Garr Cancun’s flan is so good that it tempts us to have dessert first.I’ve never had all that much of a sweet tooth. When it comes to the flan at Cancun Mexican Restaurant, though, that’s a whole ‘nother story: I might even eat dessert first. Yes, it’s that good.
Cancun, an early 2017 arrival, has developed a good following, for its food and service and, no doubt, for the tequila drinks and happy-hour offerings in its long, inviting bar. Bright habanero-orange walls, high-backed booths and wood-look tables fill the long, narrow dining room, with bright sombreros a colorful wall mural depicting palm trees on a sunny Cancun beach. A large screen is tuned to Spanish-language television.
The eight-page menu offers the usual Mexican-restaurant options in abundance.

Noise level: It’s a busy, popular place, and a friendly lunch-hour crowd kept up a constant buzz that, however, generally did not hamper conversation. (Average sound level 77-85 dB.)
Accessibility: A short wooden ramp makes the entrance accessible to all. The restroom is equipped with grab bars, but narrow doors could be tricky to negotiate in a wheelchair.
