The tomahawk was perfectly charred and juicy along with the other cuts we ordered. Very impressed with the small but powerful selection of wines - glad to see Darioush Cabernet on the menu and it was delish! Finally the cotton candy dessert was truly fun. Cant wait to come back

You'd think the customer is always right in this instance but no not here. I got the chilaquiles but on the menu it didn't not say it had sour cream. I don't like sour cream when they brought it out and I told them the guy just said let me tell the chef if we can change it. Came back and said no that he would have to make a whole new one. What if I was allergic? I don't know stuff like that just left me super upset not only was I trying to take off the sour cream I was forced to eat it , cause what else? What I supposed to not eat? Or they wanted me to pay another dish. That to me wasn't great customer service whatsoever. WILL NOT BE BACK!!!

The last thing I expected in Playa del Carmen was to walk into full-on irie vibes--a live reggae band playing right on the beach, the ocean a few steps away, and the whole place moving to that laid-back rhythm.

A true hidden gem along the Playa strip. If you're visiting Playa del Carmen, carve out an evening and make your way here--you'll be glad you did.

The falafel pita was also quite good. The falafel had a crisp bite and smooth savory chick pea interior. The fries that are included are fresh, crisp on the bite, and smooth on the inside.

The restaurant is clean and very modern. The ceiling is cute! They have egg cartons as their ceiling! I was surprised that I couldn't just got hot black coffee, so I ordered a latte, wasn't disappointed! They even designed a heart at the top! We shared an almond croissant and they gave out passionfruit yogurt with a crunchy topping - these two things were my favorite of the meal. We are even talking about going back tomorrow just to get these two things! We also shared the Luca sandwich - this was delicious!! The sandwich has ham, cream cheese, mushrooms, and truffle oil, and topped with an egg. So delicious! There was a salad on the side that had some type of vinaigrette on it. The only complaint was that the vinaigrette was soaked up in the bottom piece of bread which made those bites a little busy when all in one bite. If I ever get a chance to order this again, I'd ask for the dressing on the side. We also got the chicken and waffles. This is the only thing we were disappointed with, not disappointed enough to mark the rest of the experience down though. The chicken was pretty good, but some bites were really salty. The waffle was so dry, even with adding the syrup, it didn't help with the waffle much. Overall, we loved this place! So glad we got to eat here! And the service was wonderful throughout the whole meal!

Trendy food spot near Playa Car that's worth a visit…read more Stopped by this place after seeing how good the food looked coming out of the kitchen--beautifully plated, fresh, and clearly made with care. The vibe is casual yet modern, with a trendy beach-town feel that fits the Playa Car scene perfectly. I ordered the croquette sandwich with an egg, and it absolutely delivered. The croquette was crispy on the outside, soft and savory inside, and the egg added a nice richness. What really elevated the whole dish, though, was the aioli--creamy, tangy, and packed with flavor. It tied everything together beautifully. Honestly, they should bottle that stuff. A nice surprise was the complimentary yogurt with grains that came out before the meal. It was a thoughtful touch--light, subtly sweet, and a great palate teaser before the main dish arrived. It gave the whole experience a more refined feel without being pretentious. Service-wise, it was minimal but efficient. The waitress was polite but a bit dry--no real recommendations or extra engagement--but everything arrived promptly and correctly, so no complaints there. All in all, it's a spot I'd happily return to. The food is excellent, the vibe is chill, and little touches like the complimentary yogurt show they're paying attention. Definitely a solid find near Playa Car.

Open 8:00am to 8:00pm daily, unlabeled goods in the window happily explained by a man using broken English while two bakers worked in the back, it was from a somewhat limited collection that six items were requested, MigaPlaya's Biscuits small and savory with plenty of layers but not nearly so fluffy as the American version.

Notes: Cute place a few blocks from main 5th Avenue. They have indoor and outdoor seats. Clean and spacious. The server was awesome! Super welcoming and helpful. I was practicing my Spanish while he was practicing English. It was fun and engaging. The other workers were friendly too checking in if I needed anything. They provided 4 shot sized juices to start and my fav was passion fruit. Had a great time and a great breakfast! Definitely saving this place for a future visit!
