First visit: We set reservation for their hibachi dinner! Did not have any issues with getting the…read morereservation. The whole experience was great, the cooks were entertaining! Food was decent! They brought out special dessert to celebrate special occasion. Really loved it. Second visit: We walked in for dinner, busy. Our waiter seemed overwhelmed and we were as patient as can be. Tables around us received seconds before we ever got our original order. I was looking forward to dinner but it was about an hour and I gave up. We got up and informed the front that the wait was too long and other tables after us received better service. Things happen. The manager on duty apologized. Second visit didn't ruin my thoughts on Moongate. Their menu is great and the atmosphere was lovely.

Didn't expect the Hyatt Ziva Resort food to be on Yelp, but I guess I might as well rate it since…read moreit's here lol. Kinda felt like eating at a AYCE place. In terms of restaurant options at the Hyatt Ziva, I would put Moongate kinda in the middle tier. It was basically one the meals we were fine with and would consider going back while we were at the resort. Ordered: - Sashimi - Salmon, Tuna, Catch of the Day (Sea Bass) - one of the thickest and widest cuts ever. - Special Kiuri Maki - this one was ok. I preferred the other maki we got. - Maguro Spicy Maki - Bibimbap - Lo Mein - this portion was really big in my opinion and they give a lot of protein. - Banana Mille Feuille - a bit dense for me. my least favorite dessert we had at the resort.

Located on the property of Hotel NYX on the beach. This was the best Japanese experience I've ever…read morereceived! We definitely got the royal treatment. We didn't have to make reservations for dining in for sushi, but you do have to make one for hibachi. Which we did for the next night. So we are definitely returning. So.. we ordered: For my Mr. Edamame Miso shiru Sashimi Kaizoku maki Mitsumame For me: Gyoza Cameron roca Ebi tempura temaki Spicy shake maki Cheesecake de matcha All the food was on point, they were bringing each one individually and I didn't feel rushed. Love my white wine. It paired well with all of it. My favorite was the tempura shrimp, sushi, and the dessert. The sushi was one of the best I've ever had and loved my pork gyoza. My Mr loved everything he ordered. He cleaned his plate, that how he liked it. When we come back to Cancun, we will make it a point to come back here again! It's that good. I can't wait for hibachi the next night!

Hotel NYX's restaurants are fantastic and Umami is certainly not exception. Looking for some great…read moresushi or hibachi? This is the place. All the food was delicious, the service was awesome, and the atmosphere is very laid back. If you're going for sushi, they give you five courses from start to finish, so you're definitely not leaving still hungry. This is what my lady and I chose: Me: Edamame Miso shiru Sashimi Kaizoku maki Mitsumame My lady: Gyoza Cameron roca Ebi tempura temaki Spicy shake maki Cheesecake de matcha Everything came out separately and we never once felt rushed. Our server was very friendly and helpful with it all too. We're already planning on going back to try the hibachi, which they recommend reservations for if you're going. Kanpai!
