Date Night = Didn’t Disappoint. Fantastic Food/Environment/Ambience/Service.

From arrival to departure, first and foremost the service led the charge. Very good, outstanding actually. Jonathan & Mey took care of us. They had help too from others but I didn’t get their names. Appeared to be younger Senoras. If a plate was used,...it was gone and in came a new one. The mixology menu was fantastic, completely different sorts of mixtures/concoctions. Take a chance and try one! The wine list was decent, overpriced to the tune of 100-300% if you are from the US, but hey, splurge a little and help them out, lagoon side views can’t be cheap. Music was a little loud, but I actually like not hearing the conversation next to me and it enabled us to communicate no issues at our table so the music was a nice white noise of Kursk surround tables. The food from appetizers to main course to dessert was second to none. Presentation of everything really stood out. We did not feel rushed at all, enjoyed the sunset, some complimentary soup and a sipper shots. The staff were great.More

A must eat!!

Enrique and Cristian were our servers and did a wonderful job. They are such a unique restaurant we love the crab legs. Go right before sunset they play a song and the blinds come up. Such a delicious restaurant and don’t forget dessert.

Fun memorable evening

A fun place to spend a special evening. Food was good (especially the rib eye tacos) and service and atmosphere exceptional. Jean and Victor took care of us. We also loved the wide array of hot sauces. Beautiful space in open air on the water...with a great DJ. The show, sparklers and dancing getting everyone involved was a lot of good clean fun. Cocktails come in exquisite blown glass vessels in different shapes - what a spectacle! Prices are exorbitant but you’re paying for the experience.More

Great food and hookah lounge

Really beautiful location on the Laguna with nice views. Manuel and Rolando were our waiters and they took great care of us. Food and drinks were good and the place had a fun vibe, especially if you’re celebrating an event. They also have hookah available...which is always really fun and adds to the chill, loungey atmosphere. We didn’t get any of the steak options but it looked and smelled really good when other tables were being served with it. We got the burger because I had been craving one all day and it hit the spot. We also got the barbachoa which was good.More

The MUST and BEST Restaurant of Cancun

The restaurant itself is absolutely gorgeous. Definitely arrive in dinner attire because the ambiance is stunning and romantic. Most gorgeous views of the water. Definitely arrive early to watch the sunset. The service is impeccable. Honestly, some of the best, if not the best, restaurant...service I have ever experienced. Our waiter Joel and waitress Karen were the best! They even brought us out a “Happy Anniversary” celebration sign. Incredible. Would recommend anyone and everyone to dine at this establishment.More
