Well, first, let me start by saying this place is absolutely stunning. Wow. From the greenery, to…read morethe buildings, and beach lights, it's very romantic and gives me honeymoon/babymoon vibes. It's kinda a trek to get to the restaurant. We did not stay at the resort, but were able to make a reservation to eat here. We arrived by uber and they got us a golf cart to take us to where the restaurant was. The Menu was big at Venazu, but honestly nothing sounded good for me, and we were allowed to order from the Thai restaurant which was like 2 feet away from where we were seated. Some of our friends ordered from the Venazu menu and were not disappointed in the fish. We got queso, and that was yummy with the tortillas. The Thai Food was mid. Honestly, we shouldn't have ordered anything.. because the pad thai was not pad thai. The only thing things that were good were the samosas and korean fried chicken. The edamame was overcooked. The curry was alright, but could have been spicier. We ended our meal with churros and ice cream and that was a favorite. They made up for the meal with the churros. It's very overpriced for quality... just my opinion.

Ambiance for this restaurant is resort casual to dressy depending on how/what you are celebrating (date night, honeymoon) and the views from every seat are of the beautiful resort. And in the evenings this place is lit up so beautifully. Swing by, grab a delicious margarita, and enjoy this beautiful restaurant.

We ordered the bbq for 2. It was a plate with some of everything(beef, ribs, chicken, pork and sausage) and cactus, grilled onions, beans, tortillas and a couple of small quesadillas on the side. Our server spoke excellent English and the place was very comfortable. They have a nice area for kids. If you want to come during the day and have them hang out there while they're waiting for their food. I got the barbecue sauce which is a side that you have to ask for and it was very tasty We really enjoyed this place.

Rooftop patio with twinkle lights, friendly and attentive service, and delicious food -- what more can you ask for! We got the guacamole and tuna sashimi as appetizers, and the guacamole (as well as the complimentary salsa) was made right at the table to our exact specifications (mild, please!). We weren't really drinking tonight, so got virgin strawberry daiquiris which were essentially delicious smoothies. I bet the real ones are top notch, too. For mains, I had the chicken fajitas, which came with additional guacamole, rice, and beans in a build-your-own style. My partner had the tomato cream soup, which came with biscuits and had a beautiful presentation. We asked if they served lunch on the way out (they do, opens at 2pm), since we can't wait to come back. We got two churros to go since some of the reviews raved about them -- still too full to eat them but looking forward to it!
