Let me just start by saying--this is hands down the best Indian food we've had outside of India! From the moment we walked in, the experience was exceptional. The ambiance was warm and inviting, the host was lovely, and our server, Monika, was fantastic. The drinks were on point--not watered down, perfectly balanced, and crafted to lift your mood. We were genuinely blown away by the quality and flavor of the food. There's so much to talk about! Even the pickle is made in-house--and it was absolutely spot on. We ordered the prawn, chicken, and lamb dishes--each one better than the last. The dal makhani and aatishi kofta were easily the best I've ever had in my life. We even got to meet the chef, Malik--such a sweetheart! Highly recommend this place to anyone craving authentic Indian cuisine with a touch of magic. read more

This is classy place by my standards at least. The food was good. I opted for the Thai dishes. The price was up there but it is congruent to what you get. I sat at the water and I even saw a crocodile which was fun! Great place for pictures too as the sun sets. Our server Monica was a riot. She was very warm and funny and was the highlight of the night. I suggest walking here as there is no parking. Great for a evening date. I did not feel rushed. read more

This is an Indian and Thai restaurant. The food portions are small with big prices. We came here a group of 14. It was hard to hear the waiter explain the specials. The menu was disappponting because we wanted to eat phan thai or pad see ew which was not on the menu. The decor and atmosphere was great. Recommend to go during sunset. It is over water there were mosquitos. So get some bug spray on. read more

Lagoon hut table is the way to go, but you'll want to make reservations... The food is very tasty & the service is top notch. A special treat, they also have an assortment of amazing Indian dishes, which compliment their Thai options perfectly... This restaurant is basically on the lagoon water, so be prepared for mosquitoes. They have spray available, but it's wise to pre-spray before your seating... Provecho!! read more

Amazing views, great vibes and good food! I booked the outside "lagoon table" two weeks in advance for a Saturday night, it was so worth it. We had 180 degree views of the sea, and came in around sunset so it was beautiful. The food and drinks are definitely on the pricer side as it's located in the hotel zone - to give you a rough idea, the lamb chops were around $100 USD for 4 pieces. It tasted really good though. My personal fav was the Thai junoon, a refreshing, tasty drink! The servers were very attentive and enhanced the experience. I would recommend going to this place if it's in your budget. Came out to be around $100 usd per person for us. read more

Absolutely beautiful experience! Highly recommend. The food was amazing. We did the chef special (waiter explained this is an appetizer like portion) and the coconut and garlic naan. Ordered additional paneer and spring rolls and Tom kha soup. The Tom kha was our favorite along with the coconut naan. We were able to get a lagoon table due to a cancellation. Thank you for making our 30th wedding anniversary so special! read more

Amazing atmosphere! Food was good! The atmosphere makes this place special! Each table has its own little hut. We were lucky to sit in a hut that was right on the water. The sun was setting and it was just marvelous. The food was good. If you are from the US, it's not the exact same as the Thai food that we are used to. It wasn't on the menu, but they made us a pad Thai dish and we also had a beef tenderloin. Both were fantastic. It was definitely a unique dining experience and I highly recommend! read more

The food was great. I really appreciated the impeccable service. The ambience was wonderful. I'd definitely go back.

So we went to this place for a nice Thai dinner. The ambiance was neat but the lighting is oddly yellowish and this proved to be a problem. I have a shrimp and egg allergies. When we ordered I very specifically stated and had the waiter repeat "No Camaron y No Huevos". He repeated this back to me so I thought that it was understood. When the food arrived my SO mentioned that she thought there was egg in it. It was impossible to see true color under the odd light so I didn't think so and asked again to "Si! No Huevos!" The dinner was delicious. Unfortunately that night and for the past three days since that meal both myself and my SO have been dealing with Montezuma's revenge! I got it first and when we examined the leftovers, it was obvious there was bits of egg throughout! But then she ate the leftovers and promptly became sick as well. I am typing this while we wait for the plane with a three hour flight that I am NOT looking forward to while running like a faucet! read more

My sweetie loves Thai food and this restaurant seems to have high reviews so it was nice to have a family dinner along with our Son. We received a complimentary drink for being a guest at The Westin Lagunamar Ocean Resort. The restaurant's thick tropical setting alone is 5 stars. (We were given a spray bottle of bug repellent, if needed) We ordered: # 4 Satay Gai # 22 Tandoori Murch Tikka # 23 Somtam Goong Sod (medium spicy) # 51 Khao Soi # 54 Gai Goong Or Ruam Mixed (chicken & shrimp) Water Zinfandel Overall service was excellent. I found the meal good but the quantity for the price was disappointing. There are Thai restaurants in Toronto that leave this place a distant second. read more

I felt like I was somewhere in South East Asia when we stepped into this restaurant! A beautiful location overlooking the lagoon and a perfect spot to watch the sunset while having dinner. The menu was pricey but the Indian and Thai food were both solid. Bold popping spices with all the sweet, sour, salty flavors they are both famous for were there in every bite. Everything we ordered was so delicious. Loved this place! read more

Thai Restaurant - Indian sauces - Thai Near Me - Cancún, ROO

What a beautiful, elegant restaurant this is. I stumbled upon it hidden in the luxury shopping mall in the Zona Hotelera and was disappointed to find out there were no upcoming dinner reservations available. However, we got lucky on a Friday night to snag a tiki hut with an amazing view of the sunset an hour before the next dinner reservation arrived. After eating Mexican food almost daily on this trip, eating Thai was a welcome break in taste profile. My mezcal and cucumber cocktail was strong but refreshing and the perfect accompaniment to admire the sunset. We shared spring rolls, papaya salad, and chicken skewers that were all prepared well although lacking in spice, but very overpriced. I guess a restaurant can charge whatever they want when they have prime real estate, and I'm not even mad about it. The view is worth every peso. If you are lucky to get one of the private tiki huts, you can choose to lounge on the couch or sit at the table- both were comfortable. The privacy of your own space is so coveted in these COVID-era days..The other tables in the restaurant are equally as private and well decorated, looking like bungalows hidden in a jungle. Service was excellent as well. Ambience is a solid 10/10. Food (I can only vouch for apps) 6/10. Drinks 8.5/10 Do yourself a favor and book a res around sunset if you're in Cancun, totally worth it, especially for a romantic date night or special occasion. read more

A very unique dining experience! This restaurant is located in the back of a mall and features Thai and curry dishes. It's definitely trendy & everything is catered to the dining experience. We came on a Wednesday night and though it was busy and pretty crowded, we were able to get seated right away. The host asked if we wanted to sit in a bed on the treehouse and we happily obliged. The food and flavors were great; as well as the drinks. We especially liked having such a private area to eat at. It's definitely pricey, but I think it's with the experience that you get. Our food was served on a tray like you would eat in bed but we had plenty of pillows and space to eat however we felt most comfortable. Really enjoyed Thai restaurant! read more

First, this restaurant is more Indian cuisine than Thai, but we very much enjoyed both influences. It has a nice decor, and the views are truly outstanding. We sat outside with a great view of the sunset. Because were were there in August, we were sweating pretty profusely until after the sun went down and it cooled off a little. There wasn't much breeze the night we were there. Service was very good, but the food quality was truly excellent. Among the best I have had at Indian or Thai restaurants. We had 8 people and everyone very much enjoyed their meals. We had everything from seafood to chicken to beef dishes and it all rocked. Our 8 and 5 year old grandkids were so in love with the Chicken Satay we ended up ordering 3 portions of them. Drinks were also excellent. It's a little pricey, but not more than I expected it to be. I would definitely go again. read more

Copying my review from the Elefanta Yelp page as I want to make sure people know! ----- The previous review stating this restaurant has closed is not correct on the Elefanta Yelp page BUT This restaurant still exists but has rebranded as Thai Cancun. Which actually makes the place even more amazing! You can choose either the Thai menu or the Indian or a mix and they help you make sure spice level is to your preference! The ambiance of the place is SO COOL. We sat in an elevated bungalow and ate the YUMMIEST Indian food! The appetizer of samosas was perfectly and full of flavor. Our server walked us through all the sauces and dips that came with our meals We got two paneer dishes to share that where amazing. Paneer Mahkani was silky and perfect. Tender paneer and fully of flavor and mild which my fiancé loved!! I got the paneer dish with mint and lentils and a sauce similar to Mahkani. It was AMAZING. Naan bread was light and perfect. The attention to flavors for all the dishes cannot be understated! We wish this place was in CT where we live but we will be back! That is a promise! read more

Our fav in Cancun! Highly recommended any time if the day but if you can go early for sunset it is magical. Chuc was our waiter and we came back for 2 nights in a row because we loved the tandoor. We had a wonderful combination special with shrimp, chicken and lamb. The Thai beer is very refreshing too. The atmosphere cannot be described or expected as you walk through a busy mall. The tables on the water are lifted at different heights on stilts and it feels very private - just you, your meal, the ocean and the sun or moon. Nice relaxing music and ceiling fans added to the romantic atmosphere too. read more

I've been here several times over the years and was always a fan. On this last trip, I was in a private hut, and while everything was fine, the menu has certainly changed and gotten much smaller. It was while we were in the hut that we saw the show next-door at Ryoshi and decided to go there the next night. Hands-down a much better experience but I still like the ambience of this place and the fact that when you are not on the water, you feel like you are in the forest. read more

Thai Restaurant - Sunset. - Thai Near Me - Cancún, ROO

Absolutely phenomenal! The atmosphere created the feeling like you were in Thailand in a beautiful way; the tables were spaced out enough that it felt intimate and private; and the lighting was low but not terribly low. The food was also incredible. The chicken kabobs with the peanut sauce tasted extremely authentic: they were savory and well-seasoned, and the peanut sauce was subtle but powerful. The Atishi Kofta was the best Indian dish I have ever had. It was cheesy with a strong tomato flavor, but it also had hints of curry. The Mango Sticky Rice was unfortunately lacking in flavor: the rice was too salty, and there was not enough cream. Overall, however, I highly recommend this restaurant. Note: there are tables on the water; however, it is almost necessary to call and reserve those seats: you cannot just walk in and get one or even reserve online. read more

On our last night in Cancun, we had a lovey sunset dinner on the lagoon! This place was so cool. They have wooden huts with straw roofs for a dope atmosphere and it really amazed us. The thai food was very delicious. We ordered the green thai curry and the pad thai. Both had tons of flavor. Would recommend grabbing some spring rolls with that as well! They had an extensive wine list so we just had to grab a bottle of rosè. The service was great as well. We had a waiter by our table the entire time and catered to our every need. Very nice guy! We also had a visitor (a crocodile) during our dinner. The crocodile lives underneath the restaurant and we got witness them feed it! Overall it was a really cool experience and had amazing food! This is a GO TO restaurant if you want a romantic dinner. read more

This was a perfect romantic, first-night dinner choice. Hidden on the bay side of a super high-end shopping mall, it's a little tricky to find, but totally worth the effort. It was a Friday night, so we had made a reservation in advance, and they seated us as soon as we arrived. They asked if we preferred Thai or Indian and whether we preferred to sit inside or out. We preferred Thai and, since it was a lovely, mild night, we chose outside, not realizing that that meant we would be seated in our own private, over-water palapa! The charming thatched-roof palapas are situated hovering over the bay, some up a few steps from the ground-level boardwalk and some a few steps down so that they're staggered and therefore quite private. As for the food...well, in this case it almost doesn't matter how the food is because the atmosphere is so stunning. But, as it turns out, the food is quite good, as well. We started with the paper-wrapped shrimp and the spring rolls. Then, we followed up with the warm grilled beef salad and the Thai lamb chops. All were very tasty and well-prepared, except for the lamb which my husband said was over cooked and fatty. Probably not what I would've suggested one to order in Mexico anyway. Stick to the seafood. Anyway, after dinner, we retired to the day bed in our palapa and enjoyed the remainder of our wine while listening to the peaceful sound of the water lapping. As I said before, it truly was the perfect retreat to ease us from city life into chill vacation mode. I would definitely go back. (And if you visit when the weather is not as cooperative, then the inside seating looked very attractive, as well.) read more

Omg this place was so cool and delicious! I was recommended by a co worker to try it out because she had visited It when she was in town. She knows I'm a big foodie and I was blown away by the ambiance and the food, service was on point too. I loved the fact that you could eat in a small tiki hut siting on the water, although we didn't get on of them, we were sat on the waters edge overlooking lots of plush areas. We ordered the chicken satay for appetizer and it was so tender and flavorful. The meat just melted in your mouth. I ordered the Thai lamb chops and my boyfriend ordered the chicken masala. Mine was absolutely perfection. The lamb was cooked perfectly, it had an amazing flavor and a spicy sauce to dip into if you preferred (which was just as yummy) mine was served with rice that was a perfect accompaniment. My boyfriend enjoyed his masala very much as well. We ordered mango and sticky rice and it was to die for as well. The drinks were so, so good too! I had the cucumber basil drink that was incredible and my boyfriend had a kiwi margarita (I would've tried it but I'm allergic to kiwi), he loved it. The only negative thing I have to say is that we made reservations online with open table and put down that we were celebrating a birthday and nothing was mentioned at all. It would've been nice to have a candle in our dessert or something. Nevertheless I highly recommend this place for the whole experience. You won't be disappointed. read more

The only thing I loved about Cancun was this restaurant. So beautiful! You would never think it's in a mall, I was late for my reservation so I lost my lagoon seating , so they sat me in the garden area. The food was good , my drink was good but too sweet. I was sweating but they do have a fan above your table if you need it. The wait staff are very attentive but I wish they didn't stare at us while we eat, made me uncomfortable. read more

We ordered the fried spring rolls, a shrimp appetizer, Dal makhani, Chicken tikka masala, and a Thai dish that glass noodles with some crispy noodles, and an ordered of garlic naan. All the good was simply amazing. I highly recommend the lychee, passion fruit martini that's rimmed with tajin. Our server was very attentive, it almost seemed as though we were his only table. You have to come to this place! I highly recommend making a reservation for the lagoon. read more

I have travelled to over 10 countries, been to Europe, the Caribbean and the Americas. This is possibly the coolest ambiance I have ever experienced. Unbelievable setting on the water. Walk through a jungle and dine in a private cabana hut. Disney could not pull this off. The food, all we had was great. Awesome bar too! The food will not be for everyone, it's spicy. Not all spice is hot. Both Thai and Indian food is like this and it's hard to get away from it. Ask the staff about toning it down on your 1st try. Man, what a cool place! read more

This place came highly recommended. It's hard to get reservations and I heard people swear by it, so I was excited. I've been eating Thai food most of my life so I have a bit of high expectations to begin with. We had a seat by the water, which was beautiful, however the food wasn't as great as people said. We had to ask many times for water and other items before we got them. I ordered the chicken coconut soup MILD and it was at the least medium but probably worse. I couldn't eat it until I had water, which again I had to ask many times for before they'd bring it. I love red curry but they only had panang only and I'm allergic to peanuts. So I went for the green curry as people raved on here about it. It definitely didn't taste like what I'm used to and had a strong white pepper taste. I couldn't even finish it. My dad and boyfriend got the panang curry however and said it was very good. We asked for the check and waited 30-45 mins to receive it, I assume they figured we wanted to sit and talk. From our experience I had no desire to ever go back. Perhaps if I tried something different but this place just wasn't up to my standards for Thai food. read more

My wife and I reserved a private hut on the water two nights ago. The ambiance was great, and the waiters were very available and attentive. These are the positives. The negatives: the food was mediocre (I got a pad thai). There was also quite a bit of weirdness with the drinks. My wife ordered a particular cocktail; they came back to her with a totally different drink and said they were out of the first one, then charged us for it. Why not simply inform her that they were out of the drink and ask her if she wanted to order something else instead? Then I ordered a Thai iced tea and got back a large glass with ice and what seemed to be just condensed milk; no tea. I asked the waiter whether there was any tea inside, and he said yes. He then asked if I wanted more tea, so I said 'please!'. He came back with a small shot glass of what seemed to be syrup (sugar+water). There was no tea in my Thai iced tea. The whole thing was really strange; if you don't have Thai iced tea, just say so. The dishonesty with both drink orders was disappointing. I first came to Cancun in 1996, and I remember this restaurant from many years ago, and I had good memories. This was my first time back in a while, and unfortunately it looks like things have drastically changed. Aside from the issues mentioned above, it's no longer really a Thai restaurant; more than half their menu is now Indian dishes (they merged with a neighboring Indian restaurant into themselves). I recommend against eating here. read more

Picture yourself entering a jungle as you walk into the restaurant. Small alcoves are situated under the canopy of the greenery where tables await your presence. OR venture further to wooden decks jutting into the lagoon to capture the sunset. This restaurant's atmosphere is very welcoming and elegant. It is all outdoors and only open for dinner. Cuisine wise -- it is has an array of Thai and Indian cuisine. Which do have some overlap but differences in execution and flavors. Each dish is distinguished by the Thai or Indian flag on the menu. Sidenote -- my family is Thai and I have visited Thailand on many occasion! So we are sometimes picky... sometimes. Service wise, they are very professional and friendly. Anything we requested or had questions about, they tended to us pretty quickly. We ordered family style and chose the following: - Som Tum Goong Sod (Thai)-- which is papaya salad with shrimp. Very well done! It had a good balance of the saltiness from the fish sauce, spiciness from the thai chili pepper, and tanginess that you want from fresh lime/lemon juice. - Khao Soi (Thai) -- a curry dish served with noodles and fried noodles. It was a solid dish that left you wanting to slurp more! Be careful, it can be quite messy to eat and it will stain your nice white shirt (my shirt was sadly a victim by my own clumsiness). - Khao Pad Gai (Thai) -- literally fried rice chicken in Thai. Beautifully done! The jasmine rice was nicely crispy and not overdone or too soft. The flavors were not overwhelming and my parents were impressed! The one small thing is that we wish portion was 25% more. - Pla De Phuket (Thai) -- "Pla" means fish, and Phuket is, well, one of their famous touristy island. Regardless, the fish was crispy, moist, flaky, and the sauce was on point! Definitely a must if you like spicy and lots of flavors! - Murgh Tikka Masala (Indian) -- very solid curry and the accompany basmati rice was on point -- though a small portion. The garlic naan was warm, crispy, and very well done! The decor, plating, and experience was remarkable! BUT, you are paying for it too. The price is on the high end, and I'm sure getting the ingredients to make all these dishes add to that too. Portion size wise, it is conservative and enough. Definitely a try if you want something different in the area! *excuse the poor picture quality. It is a dimly lit atmosphere read more

The best part of the restaurant is the ambiance. We had a nice private hut for two on the waters overlooking the sunset. The food was mediocre and small portions especially for the price. I'd expect more from a ~$17 Pad Thai. Drinks were also absolutely diluted. Again, you're paying for the views. I took off another star for the waiter. For some reason, he expected 20% gratuity. Then, when I said I'll give him cash instead of adding it on my card, he stood right next to me while I pulled out cash and watched me count it out. No big deal, but in my opinion, some questionable manners for a 'fancy' restaurant. For me, this place is a one time thing. read more
