We started out with their meatballs (cut with a fork tender) and mussels (delish). Their Cesar salad was equally amazing and could be shared with 3 people. I had the lobster fettuccine Alfredo, so so good! My husband had the seafood pasta that came out foil wrapped and steaming. Seafood was tender full of flavor. Their ragu meat sauce tortellini was homemade and the sauce was heavenly! Even the pepperoni pizza had great crust and sauce flavor. Size was big! We sat outside on the cobblestone street where they come by and play music, such an amazing experience. Service is friendly! Oh and our wine and cosmopolitan perfect!

My favorite was the lobster - and whatever sour cream/cheese/butter they serve with the baked potato was the stuff loaded potato dreams are made of. Second trip - prices seemed to have doubled and I'm not sure how our bill was so high. Lobster cost 3x as much as the previous visit 48 hours before, and while I understand market prices, that seemed a bit extreme. Also had trouble with our bill after it posted - the restaurant added an additional tip despite us tipping very well in pesos. Overall - great food, but pay attention to your bill.

Dan (husband of the owner team) came and visited with us a couple times. You can tell he loves the place as much as anyone. Next time we come down from Washington, we will be back, probably multiple times.

It is one of my favorite restaurants in the hotel zone and some the best Italian I have eaten. We had a group of 10 and were seated in a private room. The service is top notch. Everyone is so helpful and kind. They have an extensive wine list that is sure to satisfy any craving. Before dinner, they bring bread with cheese and spicy onions and peppers that is delicious. My personal favorite meal is the green hats, but I really don't think you could go wrong with anything on the menu. Everything they serve is the perfect balance of flavors. Everyone in our group loves their meal which is why this place continues to be a staple for us year after year. I look forward to coming back to Cancun just to eat at the restaurant. Our time and money is always well spent here and we have always had a wonderful time and incredible food. We do not do all inclusive, but even if you do, I would still recommend making a stop here.

Elegant Italian restaurant that had surprisingly excellent food, with disappointingly and expensive…read morewine choices. Cenacolo moved recently to La Isla mall across from where we were staying. With its all glass walls, the space was elegant and inviting. The kitchen was all glass so you can see the chefs preparing the food. We didn't have reservations, but the hostess found us a great table. Our main server was Alejandro and he was more than helpful in making sure we ordered what we wanted. With Italian food, I also prefer very good Italian wine versus a cocktail. He pointed me to 2 red wines that were bold and heavy as I requested. Both were just OK, but expensive. Wines by the bottle was ridiculously high. Regardless, he was great in steering me to the type of dishes more suited to what I was asking for and not just the most expensive. This restaurant has been highly recommended by my brother and sister in law for years. They had told us it was one of the best Italian food they have had anywhere. But, In its previous location, it just looked a bit stuffy for a CANCÚN vacation meal. At its new location, though it was still upscale, it seemed more approachable to us somehow. We just came back from a 10 day vacation at the Amalfi coast, and Rome, Italy. We found the pastas at Cenacolo to be comparable if not better. We had bruschetta, Ragu spaghetti, lasagna, and their chocolate soufflé. We had read that the soufflé was outstanding so we ordered 2. We were NOT disappointed with any of the food items.
