Came here to get some beach time. Nice private beach so if you want a chair with some shade its a 500 peso minimum per person which goes towards food and drinks. Drinks were great. Waters were in huge glass bottles. Fish Ceviche - DO NOT PASS THIS UP!! It is freshly made!! The lime juice mixture has ginger or lemongrass its legit AMAZING!! My friends got the breaded shrimp tacos and the quesadilla and both said they were equally delicious. Service was good. Views were AMAZING and it was very peaceful

Beef tacos

Upscale beach front restaurant . Good for large groups or romantic intimate couples! The food was excellent. It's a small staff so there is a bit of the wait. No rushing dinner here, the view at the intimate atmosphere is worth it! The drinks were delicious and huge! The host was so personable and welcoming. He knew the menu and his recommendations were spot on!!!!

Dinner out on the patio
Lesley Y.

Great location, isn't too busy, Italian seafood options, great service. Got the lobster risotto, sat outside on the patio where there are hammocks and beach cabanas. We were one of two groups there. All of a sudden it started raining, so they quickly moved us inside. Food was good, octopus, lobster were the fresh seafood of the day. So we got the shrimp, and lobster risotto and a glass of wine for around 130 pesos (so under $10). The lobster risotto was around $380 so that's under $20. All around good pricing. Best of all; the staff went out to grab a taxi for us in the pouring rain while we waited inside. Would go again.

Fruit crepes with a berry drizzle, sweet and tasty.

This little place is so great! Cute and private. An adorable restaurant and bar that has amazing food and drinks! Everything we ate, we loved.

Amazing dinner! Fresh red snapper with excellent sides.

Excellent food, great service and super quiet! Not expensive and very local. 5/5. Would recommend this place for dinner.

We stopped for a beer and stayed for dinner. We had the fish ceviche, lobster fettuccini and fish filet served on rice and veggies. Great meal at a fair price with a spectacular view.

Berry salad with goat cheese

We came here late on a Monday night (around 9pm) and they were easily able to accommodate our group of 8 people. The location is wonderful because it is right on the beach. Unfortunately since it was at night we couldn't see much of the water. But sitting outside and listening to the ocean was very calming. We order a bunch of appetizers and entrees. I tried the tuna nacho appetizer and the seafood app. The tuna was unbelievably fresh and a few people liked it so much they ordered another round so they didnt have to share. After all of the seafood apps, I decided i didnt need a lot of food so I went with the special house bruschetta and a salad. Salad was a bit over dressed (all of the spinach at the bottom with soaked) but tasty. The house bruschetta was soo good. They make all of the bread in house and you can tell. Because it was my friends birthday, they gave us a free round of "tequilla boom booms" which was tequilla with some sprite that you hit on the table to fizz. A fun little treat.

Yucatan Style Eggs and fruit platter
Steven K.

Unbelievable food! We ate here almost every meal of our Tulum trip because after the first meal we didn't want to go anywhere else. Incredibly creative dishes with very flavorful and unique sauces. I got the filet mignon every night and the Yucatan Style Eggs every morning. My wife varied it up each meal with seafood at dinner and she was equally satisfied. P.s. Super fun hotel, too!

Loved staying here! Having our own private beach was awesome. And the staff was so kind and helpful. Loved Nayelli. She was always there to help us with whatever we needed.

We had our wedding this April at Piedra Escondida and it was truly the best week of our lives. Nayeli, who works at the front desk, is so kind, smart and hard working. She helped us plan the entire wedding and communicated with us every step of the way. She treated our friends and family like her own and went above and beyond. Martin, the chef, absolutely nailed the reception dinner and kept our bellies happy all week. If we had a dollar for every time our guests said how good the food was, we would probably have another wedding here! The hotel in general is clean, cute and authentic Mexico. We are SO thankful for all of the staff and can't wait to come back for our anniversary! MUCHAS GRACIAS Blake & Ali

Seafood platter for two.
Isabelle L.

This is a nice place for a quiet romantic dinner, with a beautiful view on the beach. We had the seafood platter for two and a few drinks. Everything was good but I thought it was expensive. Anyway, I had a great evening so it was worth it.

Shrimp tacos

We tried a couple different meals here and enjoyed all of them! They've got a great spot on the beach too, making it easy to sit and have a drink or two while enjoying the day. We went for dinner and tried the lobster - probably the freshest seafood we had all trip!

In town over the Labor Day week, my friend and I were looking for a good place to stop in for lunch. Honestly, I had done all my research for dinner, so we were simply looking for a place to relax with a view and some drinks. We picked Piedra Escondida for its beach-side location and it's happy hour. Noon-7pm, 2 for 1 drinks. Best deal of the beach! They also have free parking across the street. My friend and I were virtually the only one in there. A fact that regularly amazed us during the week, as no one seemed to be around at all. We sat "outside" -- meaning outside outside, as all of the restaurants are open-air. Our table was on a patio area, allowing us to see to the beach just beyond. We enjoyed several margaritas, some tacos and shrimp aguachiles. While the tacos were good (we had shrimp and fish), they were fried. I wasn't quite expecting that. We never thought to ask if they came grilled. We also started off with this appetizer that I can't remember the name of but it was delicious. It was essentially this great homemade thick tortilla stuffed with a fish filling. Our server was very attentive and friendly, although he never really smiled. We didn't want for anything, though. The chairs to the tables were slightly uncomfortable. They are wooden with big slats. For a gal in short shorts, it's not the best seating. However, after a couple of margaritas, I was fine :)

Whole red snapper

1-Star Review for BAK Tulum…read more We were very disappointed with our experience at BAK Tulum, especially since it was meant to be a special anniversary dinner. I clearly mentioned to the staff that I am pregnant and asked for my steak to be well done. When our steaks arrived, mine was rare inside. I immediately brought it to their attention, and they took it back. My husband waited to eat with me, and after about 10 minutes, they returned my steak -- yes, it was cooked through, but they had simply thrown it back on the grill, leaving the entire crust black and burned. A proper well-done steak should be baked or finished carefully, not charred. I had to cut around the burnt parts and could only eat the inside, leaving my plate full of burnt steak pieces. We also ordered banana cream and churro waffles for dessert -- both were disappointing, we barely had two bites each. They brought us two complimentary champagnes, which was thoughtful -- but again, I had already told them I was pregnant. They didn't bother to offer me a non-alcoholic alternative, so I couldn't enjoy anything. When the bill arrived, the manager had said the desserts would be complimentary, but they were still charged on the bill, along with the champagne we never ordered. After pointing this out, the waiter said he made the changes but questioned who told me that, claiming I "heard wrong." Only after insisting did he remove the desserts from the check. We paid $700 USD for a $626.16 bill, expecting the change in pesos as agreed. Based on the daily exchange rate (18.46), the change should have been 1,363.50 pesos, but we were given 1,240 pesos, short 123.5 pesos. When questioned, the waiter said, "our restaurant's rate is 17," which still didn't add up and left us short again. Throughout the entire experience, no one apologized -- not for the burnt steak, not for the billing confusion, and not for the dishonest handling of the exchange rate. In person, I gave them the chance to make things right, but they chose not to. That's why I'm writing this review -- not to complain, but to warn others. The music and fireworks were great, but the food, service, and honesty were deeply disappointing. Unfortunately, this experience ruined our anniversary night.

If you love pizza and you're in Tulum, this is the spot. Full stop…read more Boccanera is wild in the best way. 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.

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.
