Really yummy cocktails
Jen S.

This is a sweet little gem away from the "strip" in Tulum, each item I ate or drank was fantastic. We went with other recommendations and got the lobster pasta (yum) and the tuna nachos (double yum). The fish ceviche was fresh and delicious. Word of warning for sensitive tummies: the mixed ceviche does have raw shrimp, so if that makes you squeamish, stick with the fish ceviche. I lost my mind for a moment and ate some salad which I think may have given me food poisoning, but that's my fault, I should have known better. For sure try to sit on the patio for the gorgeous view!

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.
stacey S.

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
Erica S.

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!

Christy L.

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

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!

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.

Whole red snapper
michael m.

It's a great restaurant on the water. I got the whole red snapper and it was probably the best whole fish I've ever had. I thought the prices where good even though your on the beach.

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.

While…read moreall of the other restaurants were playing loud music and had essentially turned into clubs, Parole was the calmest of them all. We were greeted by friendly staff who seated us at a large comfortable table that had both a couch and chairs, which was very comfortable. The restaurant focuses on Italian food, with seafood and steak options. The decor reminds me of a French shabby chic vibe, very pretty! Charred octopus- 7/10 Steak- 10/10 (best we've ever had! and we eat at amazing steak houses in Los Angeles) Spicy vodka pasta- 7/10 (spicier than im used to, but hey we are in Mexico.

We had a large bachelorette party and luckily had the place virtually all to ourselves. We ordered a ton of food and shared everything amongst the party. Our favorite appetizers were: STEAK CARPACCIO and the SCALLOPS W/ CAULIFLOWER PURÉE. Our favorite pastas were: CARBONARA FETTUCCINE W/ TRUFFLE and the ALASKAN KING CRAB RAVIOLI. Other honorable mentions were the DUCK SALAD & the BOGAVANTE RISOTTO W/ ASPARAGUS. Honestly, all the food we got was delicious and we really enjoyed our dinner and the experience overall. We ended the night with the DOLCI PAROLE SAMPLER because we couldn't decide on which dessert to try AND they even gave the bride to be a complementary cake. Needless to say, we left STUFFED. Highly recommend trying our Parole, especially if you're not into the super chaotic nightclub-like restaurant types such as Rosa Negra and Taboo.

If you're looking for a party vibe while having dinner, this is the spot. From passing out…read moresparklers to everyone to the fire dancers it was all very entertaining. Make sure to make a reservation in advance, especially for Thursday through the weekend. We visited at 8:30 and we felt like it was the perfect time because a lot of the performances began around nine. The service is top-notch. From putting the napkin in your lap to arranging a miniature coat rack to hang your jacket, they pay attention to detail. Not to mention, though the atmosphere takes priority here, the food was also very good. We ordered a steak and the shrimp risotto. The shrimp were colossal. I have never seen shrimp so big. Most of their specialty cocktails are quite acidic and that night I was craving whiskey so I ordered an old-fashioned and it was also very good. I would say this spot in particular is well known for big groups and bachelorette dinners. It is quite loud, so keep that in mind. It's also in line with other nice restaurants in Tulum regarding price, but we felt it was worth it. Lastly, make a note that they charge for water so you're not surprised when you get the bill.

This was a full-on experience night and easily one of the highlights of the trip. From the moment…read morewe walked in, the place had energy, music, lights, and a crowd clearly there to celebrate something.

When it arrived, sparklers, drums, and all eyes on the table, it honestly felt like some kind of ceremonial animal sacrifice in the most entertaining way possible. Over the top? Absolutely. Memorable? Even more so. Great atmosphere, great service, and legitimately great food to back it up. We laughed, ate way too much, and left buzzing from the whole experience. A true 5-star night in Tulum.

We love the vibe from outside so we decided to try it out and once we arrived upstairs we were greeted with lovely live music and a beautiful ambience.

I'm from NYC and we have some of the best Italian food in the world and this restaurant in Tulum Downtown ranks right next to them. Extremely affordable too! And the place itself it super cool as it has a lofted area, an extensive wine and beverage list and is open but airy enough to sit down and not be too hot whilst eating your meal. Bellissimo!
