They called the police because the food was too spicy and we asked to switch to mild (we originally asked for mild). Im speechless this was ridiculous! The police left when they find out why the manager called them! Just dont go there wow read more

Fabulous settling first off. The aquarium is next door and you can watch dolphins swim by from the bar. We ate in a treehouse over the water. With so many gimmicks our concern was whether the good would be good. Thank goodness it was! Nice but small in size. Authentic. We shared a papaya salad and two entrees then the coconut ice cream for dessert. But mostly it is the location that made it special. read more

Pros Food tastes decent If you can get a palapa on the water, it's a pretty cool view on the water but they are pretty hard to get. Recommend reserving ahead of time. They accept all credit cards so if you have one with no transaction fees you are good. Cons Staff and service is very poor. From the time you walk in you feel the unwelcoming front desk hostesses. They love turning people away We waited 30 minutes at the table and had to remind two servers to get the menu card but no service at all. We talked to a manager but he just said there is some new people who are changing everything (not sure what that means but pretty lame) Food quantity is so little that anyone with the smallest appetite will need to order two plates. Prices are pretty high. Overall Not worth the time and money. If you are on vacation, don't waste time here. Stay away! read more

Big disappointment! 3 stars for food and customer service 1 star. Came here our first night in Cancun after reading the reviews and the close proximity to our hotel. At first glance, the ambiance and decor was interesting and eclectic. The hostess brought us in to seat us but then proceeded to tell us there were no dining tables available only beds or lounge rooms. We were hungry so took a lounge room. Which wasn't very conducive for eating plated dinners but we were hungry. Food was decent thai food with good flavor and spices. Our waiter only came twice to take our order and bring food. We waited forever but he never returned to fill drinks or bring us our check. We finally had to flag someone down to get a check. Waiter came back to charge our card and then charged the meal plus their suggested tip. I wouldn't have left any tip for such crappy but service but I guess they got us tourist. I would not recommend going here. Try something else! read more

Hands down the best Thai food we ever had and I have been to many Thai places. The ambience, Service, food quality, taste, quantity and speed of service are just amazing. You get a private hut just for your party with nice background music and exceptional food and service! Must visit dinner destination in Cancun!! read more

It is a neat concept to be on the water in your private hut like dining area. Each space has a nice view and plenty of space. The service is purposely slowed to allow plenty of time to enjoy your company. I will admit the portions are small, perfect for romantic eating. I would've like double helpings, the food was delicious and nicely plated. read more

The ambience is great at this restaurant but the food lacked in quality. All of the serving sizes were very small and not really worth the price. I got the tom kha gai which was a tiny serving size almost just served in a plate. I also got the chicken satay which was good. Probably would not go again. read more

Food is always great. This was my second time here but 1st to review. Ambience was excellent and so was the service. I was spooked out by the late night crawlers, crocodiles, but enjoyed my experience and food non to less. read more

Made reservations yesterday. Got there 15 minutes early and place was 2/3rd empty. Took us to our table which was in "garden" way in back corner. Worse table. Left before ordering. Cool concept. Poor execution and service. Was told Table near or on water had to make reservations. Asked to make reservations in future on water and would not assist me. Strike two. Won't try again. read more

The food was sooo good, something to end on a good night cause the hotel food were not good as most. We had pad Thai too but wasn't in the photo! The pad Thai is a must because it was sooooo yummy. Thanks Mexico read more

Thai Restaurant - Bangkok and paneng curry. - Thai Near Me - Cancún, ROO

We are Chinese from California. After a few nights of authentic Mexican, our palettes need some switching up. This place is across from Westin Lagunamar and surrounding resorts (walking distance) and the closest to authentic Thai/Asian flavors that justify the good ratings (I haven't tried the Indian place next door). As Westin guests, we each got a welcome drink, tamarind juice. Even in the huts above the water, you probably cannot have a clear view of the sunset, because of the way the shore goes to the west north of the restaurant. However, the restaurant has very nice, Thai-feel ambience and at the bar there is a view of dolphins (from the aquarium next door?). If you want the huts, you need to reserve 2+ days in advance. We got a table at the corner in the garden area, so no view at all. We ordered satay chicken, satay beef, egg rolls, tum yum soup, soy sauce veggies, oyster sauce chicken, beef Penang curry, curried pineapple fried rice, and stir-fried Pad Thai. The satays are tender and juicy, not dry, which beats many Thai eateries. We ordered seconds of the chicken satay and egg rolls. The Pad Thai is also surprisingly good. The noodles are elastic and the flavors are well balanced. I saw some reviews saying the dishes are in small portions. True, the fried rices and noddles are not very big. The curry was decently sized. The other two veggie stir-fries are modest. However, because Thai cuisine is very strong complex flavors, their dishes are not big because you will need to have rice with them. Besides, they give you jasmine rice with most dishes so you don't need to pay more for rice. For 5 appetizers, 1 soup, 3 main dishes, 1 noodle, 1 fried rice, and 1 mojito (the tamarind drinks are free; so are tap/filtered waters which are not always free in Cancun), our bill came to be USD $162, including tips. There are pricer dishes that we didn't order. We (4 adults and 2 kids) got our Asian fixes and were pretty satisfied with the meal. read more

This restaurant was wonderful. I was taken as a surprise on my vacation as I like Thai food. We had a reservation for a water bungalow table (for 3). We arrived and immediately you feel immersed in a Thai experience. There are small walkways that make you feel like you are in a cozy jungle walking to your bungalow. We had one over the water with a beautiful view of the bay at sunset. Wow. Halfway during the meal it started pouring rain with wind but we did not get wet at all. The bungalow kept us dry and it added to the fun experience. The food was as good as the atmosphere. While it is a bit pricey, the experience and the exceptional wait staff make it well worth the money. We had drinks as well, which were excellent. Everyone liked what they ordered on all counts and the service was very good. We had a two-hour reservation, so we were told we would have to be finished in that time. As timing goes, it was perfect as we were ready in about 1 hour 45 minutes. When we come back to Cancun, this is now a must on our list of places to eat. Well done! read more

Food was fast, but not so fast that we couldn't appreciate the amazing view from the hut seating on the lagoon. Drinks, appetizers, entrees, and dessert were all incredible. Nothing was "just ok", all the food was great. We had Thai and Indian dishes at the table. The staff were friendly, attentive, professional. The lamb gost was the tenderest I have ever had. 10/10 would recommend and will 100% go back next time I'm in Cancun. read more

This place is so dope! The ambiance was everything. Best shrimp pad thai I have ever had. The lamb chops were delicious as well. I'm so upset I did not know about this place before. read more

While staying at the Westin Lagunamar, my friend and I went to Thai, based on a recommendation from a fellow guest. The food was delicious - but the view and ambiance is what truly made this a magical experience. While sitting in a thatched roof hut facing the bay, we watched the sun set while listening to the lapping water. I ordered the steamed fish with lemongrass, and we shared the shrimp rice paper appetizer. Definitely recommend all the food, and the restaurant is a must-visit for a unique dining experience that is truly unforgettable! read more

Excellent Thai and Indian food in Cancun. The place was amazing, with treehouse booths set out in either the water or in a jungle setting with trees and plants around. Service was great as well. We ordered the khao soi which was coconutty and creamy, the murgh nizami which was also creamy, nutty and not too spicy, and gulab jamun with ice cream. Highly recommend! read more

I wasn't really expecting to eat Thai food while in Mexico but here we found ourselves the second day we were here. After going to the aquarium we were meeting with family at this restaurant which is located behind the dolphin exhibit. You can actually sit at the bar and watch the dolphins swim back and forth which is something different. We sat by the water in one of their covered areas and it started to rain but we were completed protected and dry as you watch the water drop over the ocean. Beautiful view and a great sunset. We ordered a bunch of Satay for the table and each of us got a different type of curry. I had the green curry chicken which wasn't all that spicy and it came served with rice. Rice was brought out in a bread basket that was scooped into each of our plates. We were able to get more without having to pay. It was definitely not a cheap dinner but the food was definitely good and fairly authentic. Would go back here but the price would prevent me from coming too often. read more

This place was the only time we deviated from eating Mexican food on our trip and I'm so glad we did! I loved our little hut! I was able to make reservations on open table which was another plus. I'm vegetarian and the team was very accommodating (there was chicken broth in my soup though), but I couldn't even taste it. The cocktails were good. The service very attentive and the staff had fun joking around with us. The beautiful weather and ambiance by the water made the experience totally worth while. Check it out! We had a hard time finding the place because it seemed like everyone we asked didn't know where it was! We knew it was by the aquarium so we eventually found it. If you go to the aquarium and are facing it, turn left and go around some structures. There are a couple of restaurants together right behind it. read more

I would never return! I couldn't get past the poor, sad, obviously distressed dolphins that were stuck in a tiny cage just swimming in circles. It was absolutely heartbreaking and despicable. Certainly NOT what I want to be staring at while I eat, or even as I walk through to my table. The food was merely decent and the setting was beautiful, but I will never return until the dolphins (and any wild animals) are removed entirely. Such a disappointment for a restaurant to attempt to make a profit off the cruelty of animals! read more

A bit tired of Mexican food, we sought out a change of pace. This place got top reviews on Yelp so we decided to give it a whirl since we were already in La Isla Mall (directly across from Westin Lagunamar). We had already tried a few other restaurants there. Thai is with a group of two other (Sushi and Indian) higher end restaurants on the back side of the aquarium. A tad difficult to find, but once you do the setting is really authentic. It brought me back to a boutique/lounge type resort somewhere in Phuket. Each table has a lot of privacy and is set off in its own section of the "forest". Music is trendy lounge. We did not have reservations so they only had a "living room" available which was closer to the bar, but we preferred this to the normal table due to the cushions all over the seats. We loved seeing the Dolphins swim by at the bar since it shows part of the aquarium tank. Food was delicious for us all. The amount of spice was perfect (most dishes allow you to customize to your spice liking, and I like spicy!). Service was fairly attentive -- it was better than typical Cancun. Drinks were stronger if you set that desire with the waiter. It was a tad pricey for 4 people @ $160 USD but we think the food and ambiance were worth it. Highly recommend if you like Thai food and unique places. read more

The over the water tables are amazing. Such a romantic and fun place to eat dinner. The tom Kai gai soup was wonderful! Very delicious.! The mojitos were very good and very reasonable. read more

We got here to experience the amazing dolphins at the bar- We had the best bartender!! Osman was amazing. Such a great attitude and allowed our bride to be even go behind the bar to play with Cindy the dolphin. Osman- thank you for making our experience so much better!!! We can not wait until we tell our friends about this restaurant. read more

Wow. My wife & I went there several years ago and were pleased to discover that the restaurant is still there, as good as ever. We have some great Thai restaurants in San Francisco and I've been to Thailand a couple dozen times. We even tried the top-rated Thai restaurant in Paris this year (a disappointment). I have to say that my favorite is in Cancun. You can book romantic individual palapas over the water. The chef is from Thailand and every dish was beautifully presented and totally delicious. It's not cheap, but it's worth the price for the best meal we had in Mexico. read more

This place is amazing. Hidden gem. The seafood is fantastic and pricing is good. Get the lobster and the shrimp dishes!!! I ate there 3 times in on my last trip to Cancun read more

Came here because we were in the mood for Thai and really wanted to sit in one of the huts. The enviorment is really kool because it is next to the water and you have your own private eating area but the food is nothing special. read more

This used to be one of my staple restaurants here. The menu changed this time and the food options dropped by more than 50% or so. We had a couple of drinks, which were great but the food unfortunately was very average at best. Still love the ambience. read more

The atmosphere and the wait service was nice. We were looking for some good food coming off the airplane and this caught our eye. We ordered shrimp with yellow curry and green curry chicken with bamboo shoots. They were ok. The Pad Thai had no flavor. The best thing we ordered was the spicy soup. I wouldn't go back because the food was mediocre at best. read more

Amazing setting on the harbor combined with delicious, authentic Thai cuisine make this a wonderful spot.

Talk about a romantic restaurant!! We had dinner in a treehouse surrounded by live trees with a view of several porpoises swimming in a tank behind the bar. Our "table" was a large 6'x6' cushion with a half dozen pillows. We ordered chicken satays and spring rolls. Both very good. Since we were not particularly hungry that evening, we split an order of chicken Pad Thai. I would give it a 6/10. Why?? We ordered chicken Pad Thai but got Shrimp Pad thai. We should have returned it...but it was still good but not great. My wife thinks it was great not good. (Imagine...a husband and wife disagreeing on something!!!). The prices were reasonable and the service attentive but not intrusive. We would definitely go again. read more

We enjoyed our experience very much! The private bungalows on the water provide a nice atmosphere. The food was delicious. We started with spring rolls. We each ordered an entree and we both had leftovers to bring back to our hotel room. We also each ordered a dessert. read more

This restaurant gave 3/5 members of our party food poisoning, which ruined the last few days of our vacation. We highly recommend to avoid this place; the food is not worth it. read more

The food was quite good - we got the green curry and the fried rice, paired with a bottle of malbec. The service was good as well. What stood out from the start was the seating - we were placed in the Lagoon seating which was so beautiful and hidden. The only negative was that we got bitten by bugs because we were over the water...like devoured by bugs. So as a warning, put on some bug spray on your legs. read more

This place was good, not blow your mind good, just good. We sat in a hut on the water, which was one of the most romantic dining settings I have ever had. That alone earns it the starts. We started with the spring rolls which were a little soggy and the beef salad. The beef salad might have been one of our favorite things of the evening. We then ordered the pad thai and the bangkok entree with shrimp and chicken. Both were good, now were they $30 an entree good, probably not. I get that it we are in Cancun, but it seemed a little overpriced for me. If you are looking for a romantic setting then this is your place, but if you are looking for amazing food then I might try somewhere else. read more

To start, the manager said if we didn't get here by 6:15 that we wouldn't get a table. So we rushed like hell to make it over there. Meanwhile the restaurant remained pretty empty the entire three hours we were there. Every dish was meh, and they were out of Mango and sticky rice. However the view is amazing and the service was good! There was also a creepy guy in a white shirt watching us eat the entire time, not sure who he was. Plus they've got two dolphins held captive in a tiny ass aquarium! It's fn depressing to watch! read more

Great private dining directly over the water of the lagoon. The food was pretty good, for Thai food in Mexico. The portions were a bit small, but who can eat when it's that hot and humid out? The flavors were good, a bit on the salty side, but good. Service was nice, attentive without being pushy. The atmosphere was really what gives this place a special feel. read more

Thai Restaurant - View from our table - Thai Near Me - Cancún, ROO

This restaurant is beautiful. We had an overwater bungalow with a beautiful view of the ocean. It is very dim and instead of a paper menu they offer their menu on a tablet. Very modern. The food is pretty pricy and the portions are small but you're paying for the experience. They only offer a few bungalows so it's best to make a reservation a couple of days ahead of time. The food was average. Being that I have traveled to Thailand before my expectations were high after finding out the chef was from Bangkok. We ordered the chicken skewers, Tom yam soup, a chicken with vegetables dish(sarika) and a fried chicken in a sweet sauce (kai phet met) The soup was very authentic the kai phet met wasn't that appetizing and the sarika was decent but average. After dinner we enjoyed at drink at the beautiful bar they have there with a front row view of dolphins. I would recommend this place and be willing to give it another shot the next time I'm in Cancun. read more

Very nice service and GORGEOUS ambiance, but quite expensive for two entrees, three apps, and three cocktails: $130US. The food was meh and the portions were on the small side. I'd go back for a drink and that killer view...but nothing more. read more

This place was very disappointing. It was our last night visiting and we decided we wanted to go somewhere nice. One star for the ambiance and one star for the staff. This is the worst Thai food I've ever eaten. They have one vegetarian option and no fresh spring rolls. We asked them to take the chicken out of the spring rolls and they said they couldn't which makes me wonder if everything is frozen. It seems odd to me that this place would spend so much money building out such a beautiful Resturant and not care about the quality of food. It's so overpriced you end realizing you are paying for 90% atmosphere and 10% for the food. Not only did we leave disappointed but on our way out I saw the live dolphins they have on display at their bar and it made me completely sick knowing those dolphins (3 of them) are living the worst life in such a small captive space. I will never come back to this place and tell my friends to steer clear. read more
