What people say, in short
Caracol draws recommendations for Mexican seafood and a splurge meal. The Sunday brunch buffet receives repeated praise, with one diner especially enjoying its extra seafood options. Noise is a consideration: one visitor finds dinner very loud, although another reports no difficulty hearing tablemates in a large group. These are differing experiences rather than a guarantee of a quiet room.
