A laid back wood fired pizza spot with a super cool, relaxed ambience and the friendliest energy. We ordered the pepperoni pizza and honestly I've never had anything like it. It's insanely good. Pair it with their habanero sauce and jalapeños and it is literally fire. Perfectly cooked, bold flavor, unforgettable. We also ordered the Caprese with apples, almonds, and beets and wow. Such a fresh and different take on a salad. Every ingredient tasted so clean and vibrant. My tummy was genuinely happy after this meal, which says a lot. It's not far from where we're staying near Azulik, which made it even better. The vibe is effortless, chill, and welcoming. Bonus points for the two local cats, who are absolutely adorable and add so much charm to the place. The staff is super friendly and welcoming, and the menu has so many choices that there is truly something for everyone. If pizza is your love language and you're anywhere near Tulum, Boccanera is a must visit.

Arrived here around 800p on a Friday night and apparently everyone had the same idea. It is a very…read moresmall restaurant with limited tables for larger parties (they had two small cafe style pushed together for a 7 top when we were there). We put our name on a list, but no phone number was given so really it's a wait for a table or come back type of situation. We ended up leaving and coming back 40 mins later and were sat quickly outside. The pizzas are OUTSTANDING! I think the reviews all say that and it's the truth. The crust is Neapolitan style thinner crust but the flavor is just spot on! The toppings and sauce are well balanced. The roasted chicken was a great addition to the vegetarian. If they made cheese sticks with a marinara sauce with that crust it would be a HUGE seller! The green salad was pretty standard and not much that was memorable or forgettable, just good and as expected. Unfortunately, the bruschetta was a huge let down -- we literally received halved cherry tomatoes on a piece of bread. They served it with olive oil to drizzle, but that did not even come close to what we expected. There are a few cats that roam the outside patio, but they don't bother you much. The staff was welcoming and we had good conversation with the server even for it being 20 mins before they closed.

There was a guy on accordion one night who was fire. The menu won't disappoint -- it may be small but it's definitely delicious. The hot sauce from Valladolid is hot. Really hot. Really, really hot. Make sure you try it. Service is prompt even when it's busy, so don't let the crowd dissuade your decision for a quick drink. Oh, and I know it's not the typical Tulum mezcalita suggestion but the mojitos are old school legit with fresh cane. Check the Volkswagen. You'll know what I mean...

The…read morestaff was amazing--genuinely friendly, incredibly attentive, and clearly passionate about what they're serving. You can tell they really know the food and love talking about it. One of the best parts of eating here is the feeling that you're right in the kitchen. The open-fire setup, the smells, the sound of everything cooking--it all makes the experience feel personal and relaxed, almost like you're hanging out with friends who just happen to be phenomenal chefs. I tried the tetelas and the short rib, and both were fantastic. The tetelas had that comforting, handmade feel with rich, local flavors. The short rib was ridiculously tender, full of smoky depth, and easily one of the highlights of the night. Kitchen Table's reopening feels like a win for Tulum. Great food, thoughtful staff, and an atmosphere that pulls you straight into the heart of local cooking--I'd go back in a heartbeat.

The only complain is the high cost of the alcohol here and the fact that we had to recharge our bands with money in order to buy anything.

They have both indoor and outdoor seating with the outdoor seating being eight by the beach. Be careful about sitting on isolated tables as you might get approached by some wild raccoons.

To be fair she ordered sweat potatoe croquet, guacamole and a salad. I got lobster with mashed potatoes, ceviche, wings, and a mandarin fresh squeezed juice. The vibe here is as you would expect of a bar playing sports but there is also a nice view of the ocean right from your seat!! It was cool to see all the patriots fans since I am also. They had a game special for $980 pesos which had ribs, wings, corn and calamari with beer ship for two but went with à la carte and a shot of reposado. The service was good. They handled the whole floor even though ot was packed!!

There's someone doing face jewels as soon as you walk in, not sure how much it was but it looked super pretty. There's a system to get drinks where you reload your wristband with money and they scan it every time you order a drink to deduct each transaction. The only bad thing is that whatever you have left on the bracelet goes to waste because you can't get your money back. Each drink was kinda pricey, between $30-$40. I would suggest pre-gaming before coming or buying a table. The music was good, it was a lot of tiki tiki. There is a beach view from the dance floor. Everyone was very nice, the staff were extremely busy but attended each customer in a timely manner. I ordered an espresso martini, the presentation was great but the taste wasn't as balanced as I preferred. It taste more like tequila rather than coffee. I then switched back to vodka/sodas. I highly recommend you check this spot out for a night of dancing and fun!

They even gave us on the house mezcal shots with crickets and seasoned lime. We also loved the atmosphere. We went in the evening (late November) and it's wasn't crowded, plus there was good music and nice decor. It was too dark to take decent photos of the food but it looked just like everyone else's photos and was delicious!

All the drinks and pizza we ordered were absolutely delicious. I was surprised a place like this existed in Tulum - an aesthetic pizza bar that rivals, if not exceeds, some of the best similar spots in LA. Even the music was on point, everyone here was drinking and having a good time but I especially love how all patrons were comfortably spaced out. Service also warrants 5 stars itself. Our server was a gentleman but also fun to talk to. He was super accommodating and attentive, but also left us alone during the right moments. Definitely coming back here when I visit Tulum again!
