Great ambiance, view and breeze! The food presentation was better than the meal though and THE BALD MANAGER ALAN WAS A PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE PRICK. read more

La zebra is the perfect beach club for kids. They have amazing drinks, a playground for the kids and wonderful staff. Thanks Walter for your hospitality! We are certain to come back. read more

The have the cutest beachside playground for children! Parking is free across the street. Drinks are NOT cheap lol.

My wife and I stumbled up La Zebra via Yelp. In a very cool part of town, right on the beach, and good reviews, we were sold. We did NOT regret going here. If the store Anthropologie had a restaurant, La Zebra would be it. You walk along a very cool path lit up by candles as you get to the restaurant. The actual restaurant is very, very close to the ocean and has great outdoor seating. The food was overall great. Stand out dishes included the chips and salsa (They give you a plate of four sauces to go with it and the chili, garlic, and peanut oil is AMAZING!), the crab croquettes, and the Mexican street corn (Warning: It is NOT on the cob, but still very good). We each got a drink that was great (My wife got the chili marg and I got the passion fruit marg). Service was GREAT and everything was reasonably priced. The only downside was that the empanadas were not good at all. Outside of that, everything else was spot on! Take your date here for sure! read more

We were staying at La Zebra's sister hotel, Mi Amor, which doesn't have a beach, so we stopped at La Zebra several times to use their beach and get copious drinks and food. First, I have to say the staff was great. Once they knew we were staying at their sister hotel, we were allowed to use the shaded beach beds for free for as long as we wanted, and we felt pretty safe parking our stuff there while we went to swim. The servers came by pretty frequently to take our order, so between that and the comfy beach beds, it made for a perfect day at the beach each time we went. Throughout the course of the week, we must have tried at least ten different cocktails, plus a few smoothies, and somehow, they were all amazing. We had lunch there a few times, just simple things like ceviche, guacamole, and salad, and it was all great. We never got around to getting a full meal, but I'm sure it would have been fantastic. Highly recommended. read more

my girlfriends and I stayed at an airbnb during our visit to Tulum so we were looking for a beach area that was relaxing with great food and drinks. La Zebra was spot on!! The hotel is very nicely decorated with a nice ambiance, but what made the experience even better was the quality service. Juan took care of us along with other members of the team, and they were all very welcoming and attentive. We did not have to wait long for any drinks and food, and Juan was always there to ask us if we needed anything. The drinks were handcrafted and delicious. I ordered the aguachiles & the battered shrimp tacos, and everything was fresh and flavorful. The cabanas were right in front of the beach, and they were very comfortable. Other hotel guests around us were friendly, and it was quiet enough to take a nap or read a book. I'll be back on my next visit to Tulum! read more

Salsa night was a blast! They make fabulous margaritas, pork tacos, a la pastor tacos. Their ceviche was delicious and fresh, also great portion size to share as a starter or tapa while sipping margaritas. I also loved their tamales, Puerto Rican approved. Service was perfect! They were super accommodating to my food sensitivities and the very polite and happy to please. Always smiling! Oh, AND their breakfast omelets were outstanding only to be discovered the final morning of our stay. Manchego and chorizo with fresh soft corn tortillas. Excellent! We loved everything about our stay and dining at La Zebra and can't wait to go back. read more

Omg best experience in tulum. Hospitality is top notch, food is delicious, and the tranquility of the beach is world class. If you're looking for a chill and inexpensive beach day, you should visit la zebra. They played really chill house music at the right volume and there wasn't a horde of influencers, which was right up my alley! read more

The food and drinks were delicious and vibe and view amazing, BUT we were very disappointed that everyone was still wearing masks and we couldn't see smiles. read more

This review is for Mulberry Project Popup, the beach bar at La Zebra. By far my favorite beach bar in Tulum! The bartenders are so friendly and all obviously enjoy their jobs. I found myself hanging out at the bar instead of on the beach because the bartenders were hilarious and entertaining. Special shout out to Sarah and Megan for being awesome! The bartenders are always whipping up amazing new tropical drinks, so be sure to ask what they're making that day. I don't remember what I had (too much mezcal), but it was Megan's original recipe and it was fabulous! They also make all the tropical staples if you're not feeling so adventurous, along with tons of obligatory mezcal shots. La Zebra is beautiful and of course the beach is gorgeous, with all sorts of cute/quirky seating options. Definitely recommend this spot! read more

We came here for breakfast for my husband's birthday and loved it so much we stayed the entire day. It was a beautiful day and we lucked up on a day bed right on the beach shore. The drinks were good and the shrimp tacos were out of this world! OMG! Mauricio the server and Elliott the bartender were so much fun and got my husband good and drunk on his birthday. It was great! read more

One of the best places we visited in Tulum. You are treated like royalty. We came here to just spend an afternoon at the beach and have food and drinks. We got a cabana, no charge at all, just needed to spend a minimum amount. That was easy as we were coming to spend the day and have meals and drinks. The food was fantastic. Some of the best fish tacos I've ever had! Grilled and flavorful! The cocktails were super yummy and refreshing for a hot day at the beach. Mmmmm. The cabanas are comfy and plush, and the beach and water is incredibly clean. What a perfect spot to spend a day. read more

Duck tacos. Damn. So good! Then chicken gizzards, my #2. Then pork, my #3. I could go without the beef again. Very average. Hand made tortillas, creamy dressings (bean and avocado came out as little droplets on the tortillas) and deliciousness all around. Guac is good, but not earth shattering and I'd pass on the ceviche! It's quite expensive though for tacos $85 MX or $5 USD per taco, but the breeze is nice, the food is fancy and aside from them always being super slow with the bill, it was a beautiful spot to chill out and have dinner. read more

Two of us had a lovely meal here. Wanted something a bit special and interesting without waiting forever at one of the trendier spots. The fish + shrimp ceviche app was great: the most sophisticated version we had during our week in Cancun, PDC, and Tulum (and I think we ate it every day!). Excellent grilled fish with risotto, plus the side of refined "street corn" was awesome. The "healthy margarita" was amazing - less sweet than the usual version, super refreshing. Overall, our best meal of the trip. Our meal - an app, an entree, a side, and 2 margaritas - came to around $75US with tip (included), which is $$$ to me in Mexico, *not* $$. Service was very friendly and helpful but slow. It's Mexico, not NYC; it's not like it wasn't a gorgeous spot for a leisurely, delicious meal! read more

Very nice place, beatiful outdoor beach sitting area, delicious food and good drinks. My friend had fish, I had guisados with scrambled egg, my other friend guisados with mushrooms and pumpkin. What I loved was that they served hot milk for the coffee. read more

Yes yes yes!! A must when visiting Tulum!! My friend and I were visiting Tulum for the first time and managed to come here twice: once for breakfast, once for dinner. Breakfast: amazing. I consider myself a breakfast burrito connoisseur of sorts, and this one didn't disappoint. Bonus points: Hello Kitty latte art. Dinner: was able to sit on the beach, watch the most amazing sunset, drink a glass of wine, and eat some great food. I got the ceviche and the chicken and lime soup. The ceviche was good, but very different than what I'm used to. The soup hit the spot. My vegan friend also loved what she got! Come for the view, good food, and friendly staff :) also, very reasonably priced compared to some of the other restaurants we went to. read more

First, I want to state that the place was beautifully decorated and had a wonderful beach-front view. The servers were incredibly nice, they wore their masks correctly all night long, and they made sure we were socially distanced from other guests. Even the personnel working in the parking across the street were amazing! I appreciate good customer service and this place definitely has it. However, the food is very mediocre for the price. The tacos are not authentic and extremely overpriced. It feels like they over thought their food recipe/ingredients to a point that it simply was just not good (the chorizo taco literally made me gag after one bite). Of course, I'm sure that other guests enjoyed the food, but if you're someone who is used to eating real Mexican tacos, this place might be a disappointment. Also, seeing the price for the meals, I would've loved it if the churro dessert came with ice cream (more of a suggestion). Other than that, the agua fresca is DELICIOUS, the people were amazing, and, even though it wasn't my favorite meal, it did fill me up. read more

Amazing and beautiful place, had to visit twice! Our main servers throughout the 2 visits were Beto and Jairo; both very friendly and attended our needs quick. Food was amazing and came out at a timely manner. If you needed something right a way, they have a little sign you put up for help. Would visit again my next trip here! read more

We just came here for drinks at the beach front bar, but Leo, the bartender was AMAZING!! When asked about the type of Mezcal in my drink (I am trying to learn more about it) he brought out several types for me to try!! For GRATIS!! Super guy, takes great pride in his work and is a true craftsman of a fine cocktail!! read more

This restaurant is great for lunch or dinner but skip breakfast been there twice for breakfast. It takes twenty minutes to get a coffee crazy but true. The food is great but but the wait for coffee is unacceptable read more

The two musts are the rib eye tacos and the passionfruit margarita . The tacos come in 3 per serving and are very flavorful . It's marinated in an oxtail salsa . The passion fruit margarita has a brim of chili and salt . The alcohol just subtly creeps up on you. I also tried the chicken tacos which i don't recommend . It's pretty bland compared to the rib eye tacos . They also bring complementary salsa and chips to the table while you wait for your food and the ocean views are remarkable. read more

Amazing! Our waiter was OZkar and he made our day absolutely amazing! Whenever we needed drinks or food he was quick to bring it!

Our visit to La Zebra was a roller coaster of emotions. We experienced highs and we experienced lows. On first impressions, it's got a decent atmosphere. We sat at a cool table with a painting of Frida on it. The rope lights were a bit trying-too-hard, but overall the vibe was nice. They had live music that night, but it was just too loud. The trumpets in particular were on the verge of blowing our ear drums out, and forget having a conversation. Our drinks were good. Fresh and not too cloying. Service seemed okay at first. One of my companions didn't order a starter, but clarified with the waiter that the food she ordered was her main dish. It ended up coming out almost immediately after the starters for the rest of us. Really poor timing on that. The worst part of our experience was my sad, flavorless pile of vegetables. It was supposed to be mixed vegetables with green mole.. which, could have been fine if the vegetables were cooked with the right technique and seasoning. But, they appeared to be steamed with zero seasoning and piled on a blob of boring green goo. I could barely eat even half of it, even after adding salt. Seriously one of the worst excuses for a vegetarian dish I've ever had. To their credit, they did end up removing it from our bill. We ordered dessert, which took two weeks to come out - but we all had to agree it was the best part of the meal. The vanilla ice cream was some of the best I've ever had. This place has good potential, but they need to treat their vegetables better! read more

Free salsa lessons! Food was okay. We didn't have the best service here. It took a while for us to get our orders in. Drinks were great! The resort is pretty crowded. They have a live band right by the bar which we didn't know about was had the speaker blaring at us. At that point we just wanted to finish our meals and leave. read more

The place is beautiful, the cocktails were great! I got a pricy angus beef burger, but it tasted more like a vegan burger - still unsure what exactly the meat was! Other food was very good. read more

Here with 5 guests and before I start, I must say the place is extremely beautiful. Which is sad because the service was horrible! It took them awhile to get our drinks, and after that it was almost 40 minutes or so before we placed our order. The food took a long time and the service was nonexistent! Our server never asked if we wanted additional drinks not even water. After two days, this is the first place that the food was horrible and the service was this bad. Safe to say we won't be eating here again. Side note - Their sister property (Mezzanine) was absolutely wonderful! Great service and great food! read more

Enjoyed a nice afternoon drink before driving back to Puerto Morelos. The staff are super friendly and informative. We sat at the beach bar which has no additional charges, ordered a tulum beer and tropical storm smoothie, the smoothie was very refreshing. The beach did have some seaweed, but alot less compared to other areas we have been. If wanting to sit on the beach lounge chairs you need to spend 500 pesos per person. read more

Our meal at La Zebra was one of our favorite while in Tulum. The food was exceptional and so was the service and atmosphere. There is certainly no shortage of beautiful beach front restaurants in Tulum, but La Zebra was a stand out for sure. We did not make a reservation and were able to be seated right away. The tables were beautiful and the views were great. We were given some amazing bread to start with so we didn't order an appetizer. We ordered a few different cocktails throughout dinner and the best by far was the mango margarita. It had a smoothie like texture and was made with fresh mango. So delicious! For dinner, my partner and I both ordered vegetarian tacos. They were so delicious and even stood up to the famous Charly's Vegan Tacos. The flavors were complex and delicious. I highly recommend stopping in for a meal at La Zebra. read more

I was very excited about eating at La Zebra, the ambience is a good vibe. However we were highly disappointed in the service! We were not greeted and brought drinks until approximately 20 minutes into being seated. We ordered our appetizers which took 40 minutes to get! Then waited another 30 min for our dinner! Typically dinner is about 1.5 hours to order and eat but no we weren't eating till an hour and a half later. We were starving. We also were not approached by a waiter at all to check on how we were or if we needed anything. The food was very good though and I think this could be a good place if they worked on their customer service ALOT read more

It was good! The place is beautiful. The service wasn't great! Food was ok. I went there for lunch and I was really hungry with lots of expectations but was a little disappointed by the food! But the view is nice read more

Go here. You're thinking, it's in a hotel, how good can it be? It's great. Possibly the best guacamole I've had and tacos that will make your heart sing. The ceviche is on point and comes in an endlessly massive portion. The cocktails were better than you'll find in most beach bars. Earlier this year they also had an incredible bar collaboration with the Mulberry Project Popup Bar that produced some incredible cocktails, and I expect you'll still find quality beverages here. read more

Friendly staff and incredible atmosphere! Would definitely recommend for anyone traveling to Tulum.

Rib eye tacos were SO good. Margaritas strong. Salsa night is so much fun and it's so hard to stop smiling while dancing to the live band. There's a guy who will instruct you if you ask. Lessons at 6 but if you can't make it, guaranteed someone will teach you. read more

I am literally counting down the days until I can come back! There are so many wonderful hotel choices in Tulum and I scouted several of them while I was there. But I would still choose La Zebra ALL OVER AGAIN. The service, hotel room, food, drinks, the beach, all were amazing! And let me not forget to mention the location. Just a short walk to some of the finest restaurants and bars in Tulum. I highly recommend La Zebra and wish I had stayed longer! read more

Everything about this boutique hotel was 5 stars. From the service, rooms + view, hospitality, food, chefs table experience, size + noise (small and quiet) of the hotel. We also booked a night with the private chef at the chefs table which was incredible. Walking distance to great restaurants + stores but. Absolutely recommend! read more
