    Habibi has great staff, who are very attentive and the restaurant is clean and presentable. The food itself is very rich and savory. I tried the truffle fries, a bread dish (pictured but I can not remember the name), and an item that contained NotMeat. All three dishes were very filling and hit the spot. This restaurant also has plenty of vegetarian/vegan options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner!

    First off, the negative reviews for this place are a bit outdated, and imo lack details. The differences in reviews can also be between breakfast, lunch, and dinner, or even with resort members and non-resort members. So I can see where there may be a heavy bias in experience. We are Palace members and get pampered to, so my review is all positive. We abide by their policy to dress appropriately, arrived on-time for our dinner reservation, and loved everything about it! Dining & Atmoshphere: - Clean white-linen tablecloth dining. Clean silverware in place once you're seated. - I'm not sure what Lebanese decor should look like, but it appeared very elegant to me. - I noticed some tables with hookahs, but they were not used during dinner. Imagine how annoying it would be eating with smoke/vapor blown in your face. So I'm actually glad they were not used. - We were surrounded by many families, so they'll make accommodations for kids and large parties. - It can get a bit loud, but we went on a night with belly dancers and modern Arabic-type of music. So the high volume level was expected. As well as eye opening entertaining! Wine, Food & Service: - Started off with Mauricio, who was not considered a pure som just yet, but definitely on his way up. He recommended a local red cabernet that actually tasted like a blend but paired very well with our meats. - Second, we were attended to by Carolina! She took care of us from beginning to end. And her service was fantastic in every way! She also recommended the "sample dishes," since we've never been there. This was basically a sample of all their appetizers, main dishes, and meats. We started with fresh pita bread and some green (basil) hummus appetizer. SO DELISH!!! I saved some for the meats. - Other appetizers, we were given a traditional Khachapuri. OMG, that cheese bread with the broken egg yolk! LOVED IT!!! The Pear Fattoush Salad was also refreshing, as was their two tasty rice dishes. - Meats! We loved the grilled octopus, rack of lamb and it's minty pesto. Can't say the chicken breast was all that. A bit dry. Pork belly is pork belly, still a good choice. But the BEST was the 48 hour Slow-Cooked Short Ribs! The cuts were just so tender, fatty, and juicy. It went well with our red cab. ~ Desserts! They were decent. I'm just not much of a dessert person, but I did like the flavors. I'll assume that management must've taken the negative reviews to heart, or I'm in the wrong place. We were greeted by manager, Viridiana. She thanked us and checked on us as we gave compliments to Carolina's excellent service. Simply put, we absolutely loved everything that was served from beginning to end. You're in Mexico, you're on vacation, so don't expect authenticity to be exact. Just enjoy it!

    Habibi is a cultural experience in addition to dining exploration. I love the different hummus and olives. The Khachapuri is fun to see finished table side and tastes rich and creamy. The kabobs are always a great choice. Me least favorite item is the French toast, which is really cake toast. Cakey consistency that is super sweet and more of a dessert than breakfast. Service is good. One of my favorite restaurants.

    Jallab , Arak , orange juice

    One of the first restaurant I tried here in Moon palace . The ambience and decor is soothing and beautiful. We tried their Jallab , it's one of the most refreshing drink you can have with full flavors of rose water and dates. Hummus was very good but the falafel , baba ganuoj , okra stew was not great. Falafel was dried I had much better falafel outside , okra was very hard and chewy . I had their lentil with noodles soup which was nice with full flavors in it . Turkish coffee is a must try dish. Service was good but I think if their vegetarian options can be made better it will get 5 stars.

    Nice breakfast!

    Breakfast was yummy. Hummus was awesome! French toast was great and everything was nice

    The vibe in here is great and decor is soooo beautiful
    Willow R.

    This place was great. Not sure if you can just make reservations and come from offsite but it's worth a visit. The ambiance and food were wonderful. The staff was delightful and Viridiana was an absolute gem, she was so kind to us on both visits!! The chicken with yogurt, chicken and rice, hummus, cheese bread, and cheese dessert were the standout items. My husband doesn't eat lamb so I missed out on those. A great vibe, excellent dancers, a fun place for hookah, and a beautiful vibe.

    This is inside the The Grand Moon Palace Resort. A few nights a week at 6:30pm, they have a belly dance show. They don't take reservations, so come early to line up. The service was great, but I did not enjoy the food as much as the show.

    Pasta with Tomato Sauce - 10/10

    My family, my dad's friends and I came to Cancun and stayed at the Moon Palace resort. In this buffet, all the food is amazing. Breakfast Time: Breakfast is even better than lunch believe me, they have pancakes, muffins, waffles, Nutella, cheerios and so much good options! I took pancakes, waffles, French toast and a brioche muffin! I got way more than lunch but it's worth it the food is so good! I hope this helps! Lunch Time and Dinner Time: I suggest going to the pasta bar to get custom pasta freshly made! The deserts are really amazing and they have good drinks. I took some pasta, chicken nuggets, and French fries! I know it's a lot but the food is too good! I also took a chocolate tart the second time, I hope this helps!

    Wonderful food! If you get here right at 6pm when they open or get in line earlier they can usually seat you pretty quick. Make sure you are hungry because they bring out so much food that we were almost full before the main course. The dancers add a nice element to the experience as well!

    Benazuza is a 20+ course foodie experience that will approach everyday ingredients in a fun way…read more Benazuza is located in The Pyramid at the Grand Oasis, specifically inside of their casino area. If you are not staying at the hotel, be sure you tell the gate keeper that you are going to this restaurant when approaching the hotel. The workers will point you towards the restaurant. The hotel itself is beautiful, it feels like you are walking through an indoor plant nursery. The meal started off at the bar outside of the dining area, where reimagined cocktails are served before your meal. My party and I were served by Luis here who was the sweetest and thoughtful. Luis's cocktails set the expectations very high. Then you are moved to the dining area where you are offered a wine menu and the appetizers and entrees begin coming out. Each dish was explained and plated perfectly. They are small plates, not full plate coursed meals. I wish the cocktails were served at the end of the meal as the heavy sweetness factor did fill us up by the middle of the dinner, we were stuffed. If you are in cancun I believe that this is a necessary stop in your itinerary. For around 125USD per person you will have a classy dining experience. Email the restaurant beforehand to make a reservation, they're not the best with their communication but once you get a reservation, you have no worries. Get the bottle of wine with dinner- treat yoself.

Old fashioned cocktail 2. Pina colada - infused pineapple with rum 3. Shot: mascala (tequila) smoked mango strawberry - tastes like smoked bacon! APPETIZERS 4. Popcorn - not just your regular popcorn, it tastes like crunchy candy! 5. Patchapower - fermented pineapple with beer/ vodka lime infused foam 6. Pig tacos - carnita - pasta mushroom sauce 7.

Taco with hibiscus 13. Tasktacan Chips with pork 14. "Bao" with pork - it tastes like Cantonese Cha Siu Bao! 15. Tortilla soup - Oaxaca Chile and cheese 16.

It's a gorgeous bar, with all kinds of fancy seats and booths and what looks like beds everywhere. It has a DJ booth in the middle of the room, which makes sense because Avenue turns into a dance club at night. It's also a place for shows and entertainment, with a show every night at 8:30 -this week you could choose from 70's songs, Carribean Night, a Michael Jackson Night, Broadway Night, Mexican, International, and Circus. We walked by last night as the Circus show was in full swing. The place was packed and folks were standing three deep in the lobby to watch the three acrobats walking up a pole with their hands and feet, spinning around, moving up and down, head first and feet first, then standing on each other. Pretty cool. We also saw a juggler with neon light rings and flaming things that created a pretty nice visual as he whipped them around. Totally fun..

Our server Miguel was great. One of my friends ordered a apple martini. And he had this rolly cart that came over and prepared it infront of us. It had a slice of cucumber and he had then taken a fresh piece of rosemary. He lit it near the rim and aromatically added rosemary to the martini! My friend loved it so he drank 3 of them. I had a mango martini. It was good but after drinking all day didnt want to overload before dinner so i only had a few sips but it was good! Espresso martinis. Were also ordered i was told it was delicious. I dont drink coffee so it didnt interest me. 8:30 the music starts pumping the fog machine starts to pump some fog smoke. Then the dances started coming out in such vibrant costumes. In this lounge the sj booth is in the middle and open we were on the side. And everyone was all over as the dancers performed in the middle. I felt like i was at a dancing with the stars performances. Girls were getting flipped had head pieces on. And the guys knew how to shake it!! The costume changes were quick and they came out from one routine to the next! Cant wait to go back tonight and see it again. Everynight they change the genre. Tonight it was spanish. Last night we missed it but it had. American songs like ymca. Music from the 70s The next few nights the shows included. michael jackson performance. Amazing!! Mexican night with traditonal mexican clothes and dances International night. Had some bollywood dancing Broadway night. Was great had some hairspray, wicked, west side story. Numbers!
