    Perfect. Lunch menu hit the spot. They even had a dog bed for our companion. The caprice salad was phenomenal as was the steak and frites. Highly recommend! Will be back!

    We couldn't book an able for eight on Open Table so our hotel concierge called and got us a table. It is a small restaurant, and as there was a heat wave in PDC, everyone was inside. We were welcomed warmly and it was great to see that we were not squeezed in! We ordered cocktails and appetizers. They came out quickly and were delightfully presented. We shared six entrees. The yellow chicken curry and the sea bass were the favorites. Overall, an excellent experience. Highly recommended.

    What a fun, cute and wonderful restaurant experience. It was our first night out in Playa del Carmen on vacation and we came here based on reviews. The vibes were impeccable, and there was an amazing energy in the air. Our server Emilia was so kind, gracious and offered the perfect commentary and guidance for our selections that evening (she also made killer negronis and margaritas!) The duck confit tacos to start were so tender and tasty and accompanied perfectly by the condiments. The caribbean lobster risotto was so well prepared and the grilled octopus had the perfect cook and texture. I was so full, but after all that delicious food I had to try at least one dessert....and I'm so glad I did. The lemon crème crumble with the passion fruit gelato......there are no words, such a unique dessert unlike anything I've tasted. What a great way to kick off a vacation.

    Garlic butter, shrimp. Seven pieces. Shrimp a little overcooked but the flavor was good.

    The food was decent, but not worth the high prices. We were the only ones there for dinner. The restaurant was clean and the ambience is OK though the restaurant did smell like cleaning solution. Overall, I would say there is nothing spectacular about it and food was OK. I don't think it's worth the price.

    Prices have gone up considerably!

    Amazing gourmet food, with service more friendly than going to your sister's for the first time in 5 years. The place is TINY, only 9 tables, so get a reservation! If you sit in the table in the back of the patio, you'll get a nice view of the open kitchen. You'll see all the attention the chefs put into every dish. The food is a little pricey, but it seems like everything everywhere has doubled in price since a year ago.

    We chose this restaurant after hearing raves about it from both guests at our hotel and a friend who has been there before. It exceeded our expectations! The restaurant is quiet (two blocks from 5th Ave) with low level background music, has chic/smart decor, and has an intimate feeling. The Host was delightful. There were four of us. Every dish they served was beautifully presented and extremely delicious. The dinner started with an amuse buche of delicate flat bread with herb goat cheese. I had the skewered shrimp and scallops. See photo. The shrimp and scallops were nestled together in a delicious garlic based sauce. Both cooked perfectly! My entrée was the rack of lamb. See photo. It is a half a rack and was cooked medium rare as I requested. It came with a lovely sauce. Another winner. The other diners with me also agreed that their meals were also spectacular! The specialty of the house, soy and butter glazed fresh seared tuna, was a major hit as expressed by one dinner mate. He and his wife come to Playa Del Carmen often and now plan to revisit this restaurant regularly. Everybody also loved their desserts. We ordered a nice Mexican Syrah wine to wash it all down. A very satisfying experience.

    I found this place to be a perfectly predictable place for good elevated cuisine. They aren't taking many risks or doing inventive food. If you're familiar with the concepts Seasons 52, Bonefish Grill, Capital Grill, etc you'll recognize this style of cusine. The restaurant is designed to cater to tourists looking for great food with flavors they will recognize in a slightly more elegant setting than the standard by-the-beach Playa vibe. I stared with the scallops and mushrooms. This dish was great. The scallops were tender and still robust on the bite. The sauce was thick, buttery, and creamy with notes of sherry and rosemary. For my main I ordered tuna. The tuna seemed to have been previously frozen or just only decently executed. It was not raw inside as it should be, nor was there a developed crust. The sauce is a combination of butter and soy that basically tasted like clarified butter, which is obviously going to be enjoyable. But, overall I don't think the meal was worth the price tag for me. At this price point here (800pesos), I like to eat special dishes that do more than rely on heavy saucing.

    Panang Beef Curry
    Erin Y.

    Came back for dinner during our second round of travelling to Mexico this year ! We had such a good time & loved the food the first time we had to come back ! We ordered an appetizer & two entrees to share: Duck Confit Tacos - the chutney was the best part Panang Beef Curry - the beef was prepared so moist & the curry was light but flavourful Grilled Octopus - this was our favourite plate of the evening it was cooked perfectly, even the side salad was super tasty, definitely a must order entree !

    Very cozy and relaxing setting. Attentive service with tasty mushrooms as an appetizer. Great taste and excellent presentation.

    Scallop / Shrimp Skewers! Delish!

    Service was great, ambiance was very romantic and clean! Food was delish!!!! Definitely coming back. Get the scallop/shrimp skewers! We had the lobster risotto and it was perfect. Cost is reasonable.

    Butter Soy Seared Tuna

    Five stars doesn't quite cover the experience we had tonight. First off, the service was incredible. We were helped by Clara and Cielo who were both bright, bubbly and knowledgeable. They would give any Michelin star restaurant's service staff a run for their money. We never once wanted for a thing. The ambiance was so comfortable and pleasant. The music was fun, the temperature inside was perfect and the lighting was cozy. And oh lala!! The food!!! We had the funghi, the butter soy seared tuna, the filet mignon with foie gras and their dessert of the day: cheesecake with berries. Every step of the meal was a highlight. The cream sauce on the funghi was out of this world. The fish and meat were cooked to perfection. Every single bite of the dessert was delectable. And somehow, one of the things that stood out the most was the mashed potatoes. Those were the best mashed potatoes I have had anywhere in the world. Lastly, the drinks were delicious too! We had the oh lala passion fruit martini, berry mojito and the dessert martini. Everything was incredibly made and beautifully presented. We are only here for 6 days and found this place by cruising yelp when our first choice happened to be closed but you can bet we will be treating ourselves by coming back again!!!

    Tuna

    The service is excellent. We arrived a few minutes prior to opening and the welcomed us without a reservation. They made buttered noodles for our young ones, and the adults had delicious tuna and octopus. They were kind and attentive to our needs. It is a bit difficult to find and i think this adds to the ambiance. I recommend dining here.

    Lobster risotto

    We had a lovely time at Oh Lala. Service was warm, welcoming, and very attentive. We appreciated all the recommendations that were provided to us as they turned out very delicious. The dishes were very pretty as well. If you want to try fine dining in Playa del Carmen, look no further!

    A must do if you are in downtown Puerto del Carmen. Food is great. If you are a large party with no reservation, get there early.

    The trend I've noticed at almost every one of the resort restaurants here is that the appetizers…read moreare, by far, way more delicious than the main courses. This held true at El Mediterraneo as well. The best bite of the entire trip, my husband and I both agree, was the lamb shawarma. I should have ordered 100 of those and just eaten them all as my main course. I also IMMENSELY enjoyed the beef carpaccio. The chicken cordon bleu was straight up WEIRD. It had orange cheddar cheese instead of swiss, and was covered in a weird diced tomato concoction. It's definitely not a classic cordon bleu. The shrimp and saffron pasta was pretty boring and reminded me a bit of hospital food. If you stick to a feast of appetizers you will probably be in for a treat!

    This is a nice restaurant hidden away in a far corner of the resort. We only came here once and it…read morewas for breakfast. Their buffet was nice. Not as big as the one at Spice but it had a decent selection. They have an omelet area where you can select your items to put in it. They have a small selection of fresh fruit, meats and cheeses. Most of the food was traditional Mexican items. So if you're looking for bacon and eggs, you'll have to ask for it. The restaurant overlooks a small pool area. It almost looks like a Vegas pool/hotel just without all the craziness. It's definitely the calmer side of the resort. Overall this was a nice little restaurant with good food. I would go again if staying at the resort.

We arrived late afternoon and we were pleasantly greeted and quickly seated. A nice solid menu of Italian/Mediterranean treats plus monthly specials posted on the exterior board. Full bar service, and plenty of Spanish wines offered. Prices are very reasonable and repeat that the service is excellent. In business approaching 30 years, this was our first visit and found it through a shout out on Yelp! The business is an American owned venture but very much offerings and atmosphere of a casual Mexican dinner. Some really interesting photographs throughout the restaurant that offer some insights into the island's history, the owners friends, and even her cats! We started with some wonderful empanadas and an octopus dish that was probably one of the best cooked I've had in memory. Great seafood options and daily fish specials. Like most of Central Cozumel, street parking can be a little tricky but not a showstopper. You may be interested in looking for a yard that offers car parking to get off the streets. We definitely will be back and highly recommend you check out this restaurant when in the area
