    Good. We are at bugambillas once for dinner and numerous times for breakfast. There are some traditional Mexican fare, unfortunately they weren't better than average. The breakfast buffet had a decent spread. Dinner was just good. It is located in the center of the sunrise lobby and the main breakfast option for guests staying here.

    This is probably the most popular buffet at Moon Palace and closest to the Sunrise section. Breakfast is stocked with all the American traditional stuff... eggs, pancakes, french toast, bacon, sausage etc. but they also have some Mexican favorites like Chilaquilles. I got them daily! They also have fruit carpaccio with honey and mint. Try the pineapple and melon- you'll be impressed. The chef that makes the omelets is super fast and talented! He also makes juevos rancheros if you ask :-) Lunch is also an array of food- lunch meats, cheeses, pasta bar, soup. Oh my the soups they make are incredible! Try the Pablano Cream soup or the carrot cream soup. I would have never thought it would be good but I went for soup each day despite the 95 degree plus weather! They have sushi, Indian food, and of course Mexican. I haven't had dinner here but I'm sure it's probably as good as breakfast and lunch with a diverse menu.

    Came here once for breakfast and three times for lunch during my 3 night stay at Moon Palace, Sunrise section. TONS of options available here. Compared to the two other all-inclusive resorts I've been to, Bugambillas had relatively the best buffet. I preferred this restaurant over La Gondola for breakfast. BREAKFAST: A chef can prepare made-to-order eggs, but the skillets are not cleaned at all between orders (just some extra oil is squirted into the pan), so I suspect each order probably has some leftover grease from previous ones. Another chef was making fresh small pancakes one day. Several toppings were available and I chose Nutella sauce - amazing combination! LUNCH: There's always a couple meats or seafood available that the chef cooks up for you, on request. One day, there was an option between salmon and basa. I ordered the basa, my friend ordered the salmon and we both really enjoyed. There's also a made-to-order pasta section - you fill up a small plate with what you'd like, and the chef prepares it for you, adding one of three sauces (tomato, alfredo, or bolognese). The options for the pasta aren't extensive (e.g. no bell peppers, mushrooms, etc) but there were corn kernels, onions, and tomato chunks. You can also request cheese to be added. For dessert, the cheesecake was below average, but the tres leches milk cake was good (first time I had tres leches so not sure how it's supposed to taste) and the brownie was very satisfying.

    Fajitas and tacos with Margarita.

    After 2 days in Cancun, Finally the best Mexican food. Señor M. Puc was the best and attentive waiter.

The tacos were spot on, very delicious. What do you expect when you're in Mexico?? I ordered the hanger steak and asked for medium rare. When it came, it was the skinniest piece of steak I've ever seen, maybe like 1cm thin! I was for sure thinking it was overcooked... To my surprise, it was rare and undercooked. I kindly asked them to recook it and I asked for medium instead. They brought me another one and it was better. Other than that mishap, my family enjoyed our time there. The desserts were all very good too. My favorites were the corn pound cake and the churros which came in a cute stand with both a chocolate and caramel dipping sauce. The Tres Leches was pretty good too but I've had better elsewhere. We came on a Wednesday night and there was the mariachi band playing. I believe they perform every Wednesday night and they would walk over to each table and perform a different song. They were pretty loud and it lasted for most of the dinner, so if you are not fond a loud music then I wouldn't recommend coming during a time that they are performing. I wasn't a fan of the loud music in my ears... So next time I would go on a day they're not there.
