However, you do have to call and make a reservation because they place is small and pretty popular. Their pizzas were gourmet and very tasty. Their salads were also very gourmet. The place seems intimate because of the dim lighting, but it is affordable and reasonable. I would recommend this place if you are getting tired of all the awesome seafood while vacationing in Mahahual.

On or last night in Maha we decided to try this place which was recommended by our bartender at…read moreBlue Kay. We were dining very early so it was just opening, the tables did eventually fill up nicely. We ordered a mix charcuterie dish as an app and I must confess we sampled some of the best cheeses we had ever tried. My bolognese pasta (which is usually a good test for any Italian eatery) was simply perfect, the sauce was tasty and well balanced, the pasta was cooked perfectly and the portion was just right. The other pasta was a squid ink seafood pasta which came with calamarie, shrimp, and crab was equally as delicious. All in all I would say this is a winner that is reasonably priced, with nice waitstaff and a charming decor so I happily recommend it.

The food was absolutely amazing-- a mix of Italian and local cuisine. The lionfish carpaccio is unbelievable. We ordered the sea bass ceviche, garlic grouper, and garlic sea bass as well. So fresh and flavorful. Everything was prepared beautifully. Eating at the restaurant gives you access to the beach chairs located right on the water. Also a great price for the excellent quality of food and service. Luke was also kind enough to help us go snorkeling to see some sea turtles with the boat docked right in front of the restaurant. Definitely looking to come back we enjoyed our time so much after not being able to get a spot at Maya Chan.

Unfortunately, this time they were out of many booze items because it was Jan. 1 and they had a Noche Buena the night before. They made up for any insufficiency by getting our food out to us in record time. You can watch the kitchen staff rolling out the dough and workng their butts off. (Dough is not tossed :/). They did not have a band this time, but they often do and it's rockin'. Definitely worth the trip.

The locals frequent this place for the great food and neighborhood atmosphere. Everyone is so nice and the service is great. The staff speaks english and seem genuinely glad you stopped in. The pizza is Amazing. We often joke that the best pizza we ever have is in this small town in mexico. The owners are from Italy, and that might have something to do with it. Stop by, have a pie and a cold beer. You will not be disappointed. They also have a large full service bar.

Serving Italian food, bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar came out first. The pizzas looked amazing but I opted for the local sea bass which came on top of a puree of cream of asparagus. The fresh fish was flaky and was topped with seasoned breadcrumbs, the asparagus puree was flavorful and a beautiful shade of green. I split a bottle of chilled Argentinean Malbec which was light like a pinot noir and surprisingly paired well with the sea bass. Our English speaking server was exceptional, attentive but not overly cloying. The entree with the bottle of wine and tip came to $67. Would totally return here!

Tilingo Lingo is a fantastic restaurant located 500m west from the beach and famous lighthouse on…read morethe south side of the road and will make anybody who visits this fine establishment very happy and satisfied for several reasons. The first and foremost is the food. The chef is an internationally acclaimed master (or mistress in this case) of the kitchen. Serving many international dishes such as chicken masala, chicken curry, superior local seafood prepared in a variety of ways as well as a wide array of vegetarian options, this place is a gem popular with the locals. The menu is not extensive, but the chef will prepare you anything you want if you ask her and do so with charm and a sincere smile. She is an expert in Mexican, Italian, French and even Chinese cooking and her expertise in the kitchen is only surpassed by her warmth and hospitality. If you're extremely lucky they sometimes have a chocolate flan cake which is nothing short of heavenly. They also have a full bar and a variety of juices and shakes for your refreshment. Even for breakfast, which is a traditional breakfast, is delicious due to the locally sourced eggs and high quality bacon. Then there is the French press coffee which is great way to start the day! The chef has built and managed restaurants throughout Latin America and is a gifted expert in the kitchen. She has been showcased in several magazines over the past 25 years. Even simple dishes, such as rice and beans, taste like heaven in your mouth. It's rare to find such quality in a restaurant where EVERYTHING on the menu is delicious. After eating here you will not only feel satisfied, but also like a welcome guest and member of the Tilingo Lingo family. Whether you have been here 10 times or if it's your first visit, they make you feel like an old friend returning home. Additionally there is a hostel downstairs which is clean, air-conditioned and comfortable. The price is typically less than $15 to stay overnight. All laundry is done daily, no bugs or mosquitos and consistent electricity (not a given in Mexico.) You will be comfortable, well taken care of and feel like a member of the jovial yet professional Tilingo Lingo family. Mahahual is a lovely town with super nice people who are friendly and welcoming. Tilingo Lingo embodies this spirit in addition to creating excellent dishes and large portions. A fantastic value with excellent quality.
