I had already had wayyyy too much my first night in Playa and of course this spot was like a beacon…read morein the night. Live music, beer, in the heart of where our AirBnb resided? My husband couldn't tell me no. We grabbed a spot and were immediately seated. The menu screamed to me that I picked the perfect spot. A beer for everyone. But I used self control to try a local mexican beer, which was great. I also needed some food to soak up some alcohol. The fries were crispy, delicious, and saved me from being *too* hungover the next day. Such a great spot. Cool location with a welcoming atmosphere. If you're visiting, highly recommend.

Great changes were made.  I usually come here when I want a relaxing day to soak up the sun. If you come on the weekends it can get very busy. Please be patient with the employees. They work really hard..they're running around in the hot sun trying their best to get to all the customers. Please be patient with them!!! They are wonderful!!!  I've gone to a couple beach clubs in Playa and Encanto is on the cheaper side. You pay for your daybed or cabana and part of that goes towards your food and drinks and at the end of the day you just pay the difference. Come to Encanto if you want a chill and relaxing day!!!

The service is very friendly and the beer selection and food selection are very good for a gastropub. It is fairly priced for both draft and bottled craft beer.

We loved El Fogón so much we came back twice during our trip and that says everything. For a spot…read morethat's Michelin Guide-recognized, it still feels authentic, unpretentious, and very local. No gimmicks, just seriously good tacos. The tacos were packed with flavor, perfectly seasoned, and served hot and fresh every time. You can taste the quality and the technique especially in the way the meat is cooked and carved. Everything felt simple but done right, which honestly is what makes a taco stand out. The atmosphere is lively and busy (for good reason), but service moves quickly and efficiently. It feels like the kind of place locals actually eat at, not just a tourist trap with hype. We fully intended to try different taco spots around Playa del Carmen... but after our first visit, we couldn't resist coming back. When a place makes you change your food itinerary, you know it's worth it. If you're in Playa and debating whether it lives up to the hype it does!!
