Our date night in Centro last weekend included dinner at SushiClub Playa del Carmen, which kind of…read morecame down middle of the road for me. To be honest, I normally avoid places with lots of Philly cream cheese rolls, but with hamachi sashimi on the menu we decided to give it a try. We had: Hamachi Sashimi thin cut-it was really thin, I would get thick cut if going again. But the fish was of good quality and tasty. Tuna Serranito-very spicy with decent quality tuna. A good dish. New York Tuna Roll-basic roll with decent fish, but the rice was very dry. Grey Goose Martinis-tasted watered down. Service however was quite good. Would I return? Maybe. It was a decent sushi meal (I have definitely had worse). But I am hoping there is better out there in Playa.

Update (Jan 11): service still very slow, drinks were bit better (get the watermelon martini), do…read morenot get smoothies they are very watered down. Sushi average but not bad. Okay experience. Servers were slow considering half the restaurant was empty. Drinks tasted water down. Came here for Sunday 50% off rolls (only valid for their sushi club rolls, vegetarian rolls and hot rolls) Rolls were meh, kinda bland, didn't really wow me. I most likely wouldn't go back, good thing we had the 50% promo, definitely don't think it's worth the full price.

Similar to a Beni-Hana, we arrived early for our seating but when we made reservations, I wasn't aware that it was for the Hibachi. We were seated amongst three other couples and it's the same routine as if you were at a Beni-Hana. We liked it so much we came two days later and had the restaurant side with sushi. The sushi and Japanese dishes were quite good. Overall, I highly recommend dining here. The food was better than any of the other restaurants at Valentin.

There's no AC in this location because the Thai restaurant is downstairs and there's only like eight tables upstairs. It's very loud and hot. We finally got seated there was eight of us. So we ordered a bunch of apps as you can see. And to be honest the apps & sashimi were the star of the shows I loved everything pictured below one is a salmon pokey salad the other was some crunchy rice with avocado and salmon tuna spicy tuna then add tuna. Melt in your mouth delicious. We asked for tons of wasabi and got it. The sakes not included and they wanted 1200 pesos for the a bottle they do not sell it by the glass. we ordered way too many tech em mock rolls and hand rolls. To be honest I would've went for Chef's choice if we could've at a smaller table. And I would've went strictly for the Nigeria and sashimi. The rolls with the rice we're just not good honestly. I just don't think they do rice down here right for sushi rice. It's hard to find it at the stores. We were so full by the time we were done that we couldn't order dessert. But it was good. The service was absolutely amazing for the record they came they delivered he stopped us when we were ordering too much sushi and said we can order more and he was very correct. Now the one thing he said was that the mix tempura was enough for two people. For a meal. I would get one tempura for four people people. We ordered way too much about them filled up on it but it was delicious

I had the new chicken sandwich, hot honey gochujang of course, and it was crunchy outside, tender inside, and with a super tasty sweet/spicy sauce. Quite frankly, it was craveable. Hubby got an assortment of tacos and the pastor egg roll. He enjoyed it all and we even have leftovers to snack on so I can try them too. We both also enjoyed a couple happy hour margaritas. All told, the bill was 620 pesos before tip, incredibly reasonable IMO. We were there in a group of 11. Some had been before and some not, but all discussed going again. There are many more things on the menu we want to try!

Still we finished it up . The egg rolls were good I would recommend this place for the ambience, excellent service and solid food preparation.

Not just mine that was Gluten free but my friends who had a regular dish. The chicken was very very chewy and tough. I was looking forward to it because I was reading these positive reviews.

I really only wanted a drink or two, but my husband and I decided to ordered some food as well. I am glad that I did. The sushi was really fresh and clearly made by a professional. There is nothing worse than having a taste for sushi only to order it and find that an amateur is behind the roll! We also order the salmon wontons. They were much different than what I am used to. I thought it would be wrapped and fried, but these wontons were more like a wonton chips loaded with flavorful goodness. I plan on visiting the Hix Bar again before I leave the resort. I will def make sure to get some better pictures at that time. The restaurant is absolutely gorgeous and the sushi presentation is as well. Awesome experience!!
