This place was extraordinary! It’s very difficult to keep my date entertained for 2 hours, and the view and cuisine here helped me to do so. I was questioning whether there would be sufficient Mexican flavors, and there were. The prices were on the low end for the quality, and the experience was unforgettable: we were there for the sunset.

The Michelin star restaurant at the Grand Velas Resort on Riviera Maya is beautiful and grand. The vaulted ceilings give the appropriate cathedral like setting for the dishes served in a hushed dining room by servers working in concert to transport place and reveal the dishes with dramatic flair. The explanations of the ingredients and composition and process to consume and enjoy the dishes seemed fun and engaging as they should. The multiple courses and wine/cocktail pairings were great and the same drinks can also be enjoyed at the adjacent skybar which I wish more restaurants would do. I would wholeheartedly recommend this for a couple or family if everyone can appreciate fine dining.

We had a birthday and an anniversary to celebrate during our trip to Yucatán, so I booked one the few Michelin-starred restaurants on the Mayan riviera. Let’s be clear, it’s located in a resort, it is marketed for US tourists, and it’s expensive (same prices as Paris 1*). But the experience is worth it: a myriad of dishes that mix Mexican and European influences, paired with Mexican wines that we would never find by ourselves.
Highlights: the hamachi fish and the huitlacoche mushroom dish.
The service is extremely professional and friendly, on par with what you expect at this 1* level. Funny that we were seated on the same bench and not face to face: first time I see this, and although surprising at first, it allows both of us to watch the room and the service experience.

Had a wonderful set menu meal with wine pairings. Each dish was explained in great detail on not only what it was, but why the flavors were combined and how they complemented each other. Left feeling full and satisfied. It was nice to see that the casual dress code is enforced. It was mid-week, so the dining room was quiet for being open concept.

I came here with my boyfriend for a special dinner while traveling. This restaurant had just received a Michelin award so we were super excited to give it a try.
To get ahead of a big question, yes you can dine here even if you’re not staying at the hotel but it’s very annoying to make a reservation and requires a lot of weird hoop jumping.
It’s also pretty much impossible to find costs online. I didn’t see an itemized receipt but basically it’s about $300 USD/$5KMXN a person, without drinks. We opted for a very very very nice bottle of wine which was another $300 USD.
If you can, come and do the wine pairing. We couldn’t because of dietary limits which is why we opted for the bottle.
The food was really lovely. I’ve included pictures of some of the standout courses. They also did a wonderful job working around our allergies including my gluten free needs.
The service was incredible. The sommelier in particular was a real pleasure, and our servers were great as well. A wonderful staff across the board.
After dinner we had a cocktail at the connected cocktail bar and enjoyed the view from the veranda.
Highly recommend if you’re looking for a special celebration dinner in Playa del Carmen.

One of the fantastic and unique culinary experiences you can have.
We got a 12 dishes tasting menu. Each was perfectly decorated by the chef and paired with a drink.
Staff explained the name of the dishes and some main ingredient with great passion. Some foods would explode in the mouth, and you could taste the complexity of the dish.
If you have any restriction or even you don’t like any ingredients, they could make another dish just for you. If you like any dishes don’t hesitate to ask for more, they will say yes 🙂

This was my second time dining at this resturant and I was blown away each time. The service is incredible the staff is extremly attentive and knowledgable. They were able to accomodate my gluten sensitivity with every course making modifications and subsitution, but it didn’t look any different then the normal dishes. The creativity in the dishes is next level and the chefs pay such close attention to detail. It is a gorgeous resturant and definietly deserves their Michilen Star.
