So glad I got a chance to try Ukami while I was in Tulum. The owner took such good care of us and…read morethe service was first class. Music was fun and eclectic. I had the cucumber margarita, which was super smooth and refreshing. The sushi combos were out of this world.

This place had some of the best reviews in the area but it was probably the worst meal we'd had!…read moreThe salmon sashimi wasn't fresh. It tasted warm! The tempura batter was waaay too thick and not salted enough. The red curry ramen broth was bland and the noodles were soft and over cooked. It's not Asian food just because you add sesame seeds to it, which is what they did here. The rolls were ok but nothing amazing. Maybe we had a higher expectation and it didn't meet our standards!

I give this place three stars because I came here twice. The first time was amazing. I had a great…read morewild salmon roll and another sushi roll that was a special. The second time, the only thing that was good was the yakimeshi. That's not something hard to get wrong. Not sure how I feel and not sure I will come back again. It is however, one of the only places open in tulum after 10pm, so it has that aspect.

We needed some variety after eating so much Mexican food for a week. We accidentally found this…read moreplace while we were trying to go to a tiki restaurant near by (it was closed for a private event). We ordered Gyoza, shoyu ramen with chicken (comes with thick noodles), tonkotsu ramen (comes with thin noodles), and a rice bowl (pork only). The tonkotsu ramen, rice bowl, and gyoza were the best items. The shoyu ramen was just ok in my opinion. Note that the rice bowl is pretty small. It is more like a side item to accompany your ramen or for someone who isn't very hungry. Another plus- this place is small, but has AC! This seems so rare from the restaurants we ate at in Playa.

Trying to go to Rosanegro but ended up next door. I was told to go to our other side because…read moreRosanegro only takes reservations. I think it's a tad confusing. These are two different locations. The service is just ok. We were seated but never approached. I had to wave the server down whenever we needed him. Food.... Salivating! We ordered the rock shrimp, spicy filet and the ribeye. The rock shrimp were just ok however both steaks melt in your mouth! The rib eye comes out on a grill and you can cook it to your liking. Very Smokey but very delicious. The energy was very high late at night. It's definitely a celebration.

Where do you go if you're looking to have a super fun time with drinks and sparklers? The answer is…read moreTora! My group decided to check this place out after eating at Gitano, which was right across the street. Before even leaving Gitano, you can hear the music from Tora blaring all down the entire street. It was loud and super vibey. This is what you think of, when someone says "Tulum Party." The 6 of us got seated at a table. We only ordered drinks as we had just had dinner. We were then offered some sparklers from some of the staff there. We grabbed them and started dancing on the tables and having the best time of our life. It felt like we were in a music video. We had such a good time!!! While I can't remember the name of the drink I got, it was pretty good. The DJ plays great music, and has everyone moving left to right. This was like a club on steroids. The two downsides I have of this place are that it's extremely expensive. I think my drink cost about $25-$30 USD. That's ridiculous. But you have to expect that if you are on this street. All the places are extremely expensive and you are paying for the experience more than anything. The second downside is that if you go to the restroom while you are here, you will be offered drugs. I think that happened to us on more than one occasion, not only at Tora but everywhere else in Tulum. So just be cautious at all times. Apart from those two things, Tora is a pretty fun spot. I wouldn't go back though, simply because that whole environment is very stressful, it's way too expensive, and the traffic on the street is insane. It's a two way street that gets congested from 10pm-4am pretty much every night. However, many people do enjoy the place, so to each their own!

Similar to a Beni-Hana, we arrived early for our seating but when we made reservations, I wasn't aware that it was for the Hibachi.

The sushi and Japanese dishes were quite good. Overall, I highly recommend dining here. The food was better than any of the other restaurants at Valentin.
