LOVE LOVE LOVE the Cesar salad at this place!…read more Banana's has the best Cesar salad I think I have ever had. And I have had some really good Cesar salad. One of my faves is having a Cesar salad at "Keens Steakhouse" in midtown Manhattan. YUM! It's hard to top that. However, this Cesar salad in the stone bowl with the hard boiled egg, fresh shaved Parma cheese & super fresh anchovy dressing keeps me coming back here just for that. The other thing I love here is the pizza dough & scratch Italian bread they make. The pizza dough is very very good when it's cooked properly. It's old world style, just like in Italy. Super light thin crust with air holes, that is slightly chewy where the "crusty edges" turn that blistery charred black omg so good :)... They also have a fun little personal size pizza that is PERFECT for sharing as a appetizer or a meal for one. LOVE the small size of the personal pizza! Yay! If you ask, they will make you a seafood pizza with local fresh shrimp & chunks of fresh fish WOZA! So YUM! What I don't like about this place is every time I order the pizza (and I do tell them to cook it extra crispy) "well done" every single time, it comes undercooked. Every single time I have to send it back to have it cooked twice. It's very good when they cook it crispy but I should not have to ask every time "well done" & STILL have to send it back to be cooked more bc the bottom of the pizza is raw. AND I do lift the pizza up & show them that the bottom is indeed RAW. Total fail. Bummers :( On a positive note I have heard they have great breakfast here but I have never tried it. My Girlfriends have brekkie here & they like it. (For me, Virginia's has the best freakin breakfast in Port & it's the only place I will go) They also make one of the best margaritas on Zicatela beach here. I always stop by for margaritas at some point, and they are always great. I have never had any problems with service & they do accept Credit Cards, which is a plus, since I lost my debit card in the ocean. Good times. Lol While Banana's might not cook the pizza enough for me the first go round they have always corrected it no questions asked. Hopefully they can work on the pizza cook time in the future & I can update my review. In the meantime, I highly recommend their Cesar Salad & Margaritas! Recommend for lunch & dinner. Credit Cards accepted!

This is an upscale restaurant in La Crucecita. We had a delicious meal at this lovely restaurant…read more We started with a great blue cheese lettuce salad, which came wrapped with a band of crisp tortilla. Outstanding! The filet mignon was very tender and cooked exactly as I requested. I had it with butter, lemon and garlic, which was wonderful. The service was excellent and there were several good wines to choose from. The space is upstairs with a view over the square. The atmosphere is lovely and quiet. The lighting was very nice and the fans and light breeze provided relief from the heat. For a very nice meal, I highly recommend Onix.

This was the only meal that others in my family did not eat yesterday and none of them are sick, so I'm assuming this was the source. Bottom line - I need my head examined for eating undercooked eggs here. My apologies to Onix if this wasn't the source of my food poisoning, but it seems most likely. We also ordered guacamole, and fresh squeezed orange juice and grapefruit juice. Delicious.

We started with a glass of wine and a margarita and added on the Quesadillas with flank steak. Meal came with bread sticks and a pesto sauce and seasoned butter. The meal consisted of four mini quesadillas that could be eaten like soft tacos. Came with a slightly spicy sauce along chopped lettuce, carrots and onions to add on to the tortillas. I added the pesto as well as the spicy sauce and it was great! Total cost was just $335 pesos--about $17,00US. A cheap, really good dinner. We didn't leave hungry

Delicious food - small portions - OK prices for the area - customer service was hit or miss…read more The shrimp skewers were very good but after two small skewers and a small scoop of garlicky mashed potatoes I was still hungry ... I was surprised how good the fish burger was ... the fish was so high quality it should have been called a grilled fish sandwich rather than a burger ... Would have been good to have another option instead of french fries though ... nice if you could have chosen another side ... like applesauce or salad maybe... or steamed carrots or broccoli idk ... I always look for healthy options I do miss the herbed oil they had before since the salsas they served with the bread were much too hot for me to enjoy and the bread could have used much more of the herbed sauce they drizzled on top ... would have also liked if they toasted the bread a snitch more too but it was good bread We especially liked the non-alcoholic drink called "Pinada" which is a slushy of pineapple and coconut ... it's a must .... they made it right away the first time we asked for it but when we asked the second time before our food was even delivered they did not give it to us until after we finished our meal so we had to cancel the order ... not sure why it can sometimes take so long but not really professional to serve it after the meal when we asked for it before the meal We would come back here to try other menu items ... am curious about some of their vegan selections Full disclaimor: the female waiter wasn't very friendly ... she looked annoyed (with her clenched mouth and lack of eye contact) the entire time and the little dude was a lot nicer and actually acknowledged you as a person ... he was maybe too accommodating thought and it was not necessarily for him to get the chairs for us ... he meant well but it kind of made it harder to sit down with it moving and all It is nice also to have the choice of indoor and outdoor seating ... good place to watch the superbowl as they have the large screen upstairs and nice that you can see then grill your food in front of you ... also general environment although there is a dog who sadly looks at you while you are eating and it makes you feel a tad nervous ... the dog doesn't do anything though just sits there in the off chance he gets a treat

The beach dogs were a highlight: friendly, chill, and so well-behaved that a few even napped at our feet during meals. Service at the restaurant was quick, and I ate there often -- the food was great and the Wi-Fi there worked well. I also felt really safe; there's someone stationed outside through the night. The rooms were comfortable, and the cleaning staff deserves special mention -- the woman who cleaned our room went above and beyond (she even organized my makeup one morning!). Everything was spotless, and the beds were super cozy. The main downside was the Wi-Fi in the rooms -- it barely worked, so I had to head down to the restaurant for a connection. We stayed in a suite, which looked a bit more spacious in the photos, so that was a small disappointment. There were also a few bugs and small critters (mosquitoes, crickets, lizards), but considering the off-grid, jungle-meets-beach vibe, it's understandable. Overall, it was a great stay -- beautiful setting, perfect location, and easy access to food, the beach, and town. Would definitely recommend for anyone who wants a laid-back, scenic Tulum experience.

We sat on the couches on the beach. Attention to detail, Delicious food, great service, beautiful atmosphere. Highly recommend for a romantic quick bite or dinner with friends. It is a stray from the bohemian character and culture of zipolite - while we enjoyed everything - I would suggest this place as an option but not a solution to all the other great small culturally significant locally owned and family driven restaurants in town. They are open later than 6pm- so that should be updated on Yelp.
