First of all….the service was great. The star of the show was Amine who was super attentive and provided spot on recommendations on cocktails and entrees. Some of the party ordered the Mango Chili and some ordered the Luna Nueva. Both were tremendously flavorful and catered to a particular taste. Amine anticipated our needs by graciously replacing one of the drinks we knocked over without us requesting another, and providing additional tortilla chips with my dinner because that is the way he likes it. He also brought out the birthday dessert with us requesting it. This birthday experience exceeded expectations.
Now lets talk food which was somewhat unique and flavorful. Let’s be honest though: the prices are slightly higher than need by, but we are at the Ritz.

Sophie was super sweet and attentive, even tho she spilled a little water on the birthday girl, lol. Our food was delicious and had just the right amount of kick. Added w the gorgeous weather and surrounding, we had a wonderful time.

Fish taco bliss. We really could end this review right there. Seriously some of the best fish tacos we’ve ever had and if we had to guess it was the pickled pineapple that really made them stand apart.
The Tortilla Soup was very good and offers enough spice to warm you up should you need that. The serving size is quite generous, so sharing is advisable. We incorrectly assumed that chicken was included and estimate that it would have made an excellent enhancement.
The Shrimp Enchiladas Veracruz were also good and provided a very similar amount of spiciness.
The overall vibe here is casual, but you should know that the meals are on the pricey end of the spectrum and valet parking is required.
The music (and volume) match the ambiance perfectly and are a strong influence encouraging you to linger as long as possible.
Very close to the beach, this is a great destination (particularly in the late afternoon and immediately preceding a post meal stroll).
And that’s…Henry’s Take.

O Bar + Kitchen locates inside the Ritz Carlton, there is a small bar section indoor then mainly outdoor seating @ the terrace.
They serve mainly Mexico food with a decent selection of wines, sprits and cocktails.
The food is ok.
The service needs some attention, we have been left hanging dry for a good 5 mins before the waiter came over. Also, the heater does not work, we have to for the stuff to check and take a look twice!
I believe restaurants within a luxury hotel could do a bit better than that.

Was here for work recently… and I really did have a great time with the staff here. You can tell they are really well trained to be super attentive. They even remembered me telling them about my kids a few days prior and asked me about them when I returned haha.
Aside from that, I think paid +$40.00 for a burger? And to be honest, I’ve had much, much better burgers! Lol… For the price I would probably want one of the best burgers I’ve ever had lol. The bun was kinda dry and almost tasted stale? The fry’s were pretty good!
Thanks for the service!
Beautiful environment, wonderful people.

Relaxing atmosphere and great drinks. Loved my dirty martini made to perfection and my boyfriend loved his old fashioned . Bartenders really know what they’re doing. Looking forward to visiting again real soon.

Way underrated and off the beaten path! Delicious drinks, tacos, and service. Ritz experience but with much more modest prices. Family friendly and wonderful for parties. Spend some time at Haskell’s Beach and then mosey on over here and get warm by one of their fires. Highly recommend!
