Great mixture of flavors! Chocolate ice cream - beautifully presented and some rich chocolate ice cream as well, and another dessert that I forgot. So maybe that one may be just okay LOL * drinks - Miami Nice (passionfruit) and a no name drink that the resto blends into a clear drink, served with a guava block. You take a piece of the guava block and leave it on your tongue, and sip your drink. Very very smooth! Would highly recommend this unknown drink. Michelin starred, reservations highly recommended. Better to come without heels since the flooring is made out of pebbles, dim lighting contributing to the dining experience, and fantastic service.

If you're in the right mood, you'll have an amazing time. If you're not, everything can quickly feel a little too loud, inflated, and overpriced. The service is actually better than what you'd expect from a place with this much of a clubby atmosphere, which was a pleasant surprise. The whole space nails that Tulum-style laid-back jungle energy while still feeling upscale and very boho-chic. You're definitely paying a premium for the scene, but the scene is also kind of the point even offseason. Come dressed up, come ready to spend, and come in the mood to make a night of it.

The…read moreprice was the same ( slightly higher actually 1600mxn for 2 -550 gets applied to the food per person vs 1200 in mamasitas - the same consumable amount ). Have to compare the two as they're side by side and have the same product offering . Service - 4 vs 4.5 ( the other is more attentive , they constantly replenished our ice / water bucket, I didn't have to flag the server). Food - 4 vs 3 ( the burger here was quite good but the nachos tasted stale , food was on the small side especially the chicken wings at the competition) Ambiance - 3.5 vs 4.5 ( the other place is more Modern , have a swimming pool, they have a dj and dancers). If they reduce the amount they charge, are more attentive, the whole experience will be better and more would consider coming here . It's a good alternative especially because it's beach front ( both are )

Great handcrafted cocktails and an unbeatable view…read more Prices are reasonable for a hotel restaurant with beach views. You get a tranquil atmosphere and just a few paces away from the sea and this restaurant/bar is completely open-air so you can feel the breeze and soak in the ocean view. The menu is a Mexican culinary experience elevated and with an emphasis on the grill and crafting the food by hand. There's a wide array of unique signature drinks and cocktails influenced by the tropical atmosphere and nature. We ordered the cocktails. One was a chocolate milkshake and a whirlwind of dessert flavors. Very satisfying. The is more citrus based but just as delicious and is the perfect drink on a hot day. We really enjoyed watching them make the guacamole at our table by grinding oven roasted avocados into a flavorful mashup. Then they bring out the tostadas fresh off the grill and it is heaven for guac lovers. Also, their papas are really good. Thick slices of potatoes dressed in a delicious sauce. Service at the restaurant is also excellent and they really aim to please you. Enjoyed both our meals here very much.
