My husband usually gets a whole fried fish, but none were available on our last visit so he tried the fish fajitas instead. They were fresh and delicious. I tried the chile relleno and it was one of the best I've had anywhere, which is saying a lot because I love a good chile relleno. The chips and pico de gallo were also fresh and hard to stop eating. And the margaritas are always great. The staff is friendly and efficient, and they have several folks that speak English when out limited Spanish isn't enough. We definitely think it's worth a stop and recommend giving it a try.

Beautiful garden scenery as you walk up to the entrance of the restaurant which we were told its an actual home.

I'll give a more detailed portion of that below. I had the steak fajitas and we had the lime chicken soup and the Mexican plate. The Mexican plate had a torta, chili relleno, tamale, quesadilla, green chicken enchilada, and a small portion of fajitas. Everything was delicious and well cooked. The gardens are gorgeous and I could easily see a wedding being held there. Wheelchair accessibility: you can tell hat they've put thought and effort into making this restaurant wheelchair accessible. There was an accessible entrance, and each of the restaurant entrances and had small ramps that were put in place, a little steep but nothing un- navigable. The aisles were open and roomy, and there were paved paths through the garden also accessible by wheelchair. The one hiccup is that the bathrooms have two small steps to get into them with no handrail.

Kondesa is one of those places where the setting almost steals the show. Almost…read more The restaurant is tucked away from the main tourist strip, and walking in feels like discovering a hidden garden. At night, it really comes alive. Lanterns hang from the trees casting a warm amber glow, everything feels soft and intimate, and a live band playing low-key jazz ties it all together. It's cozy, a little romantic, and honestly one of the better dining atmospheres on the island. Hard to say how it translates during the day, but at night, it works. The Food The food holds its own, even if the setting gets most of the attention. By Cozumel standards, it's some of the better food we had on the island. The menu leans creative but still approachable. We tried a bit of everything. The Mexican dumplings were fine. Not bad, not memorable. The trio of guacamoles was a hit, especially the one with fruit and bacon, which sounds questionable but works really well. The queso was exactly what you expect. Good, comforting, not trying to reinvent anything. The standout surprise was the tortillas. Freshly made and easily one of the best parts of the meal. They elevated everything they touched. The meat tacos were also very solid, well-seasoned and satisfying. Dessert was the house specialty, a cornbread-based dish with ice cream and toppings. Don't remember the name, but I remember finishing it, which says enough. Service Service was good across the board. Friendly, efficient, nothing over the top but nothing missing either. Overall Kondesa is worth visiting for the atmosphere alone, but the food makes sure it's not just a pretty place. Come for dinner, take your time, and enjoy the setting. It's one of those meals where the environment does half the work and the food handles the rest.

We walked up to the restaurant when heading back to our room to have one large group being escorted in for dinner, so we asked the Headwaiter Nathander if there was any availability, since we didn't make reservations. He was kind enough to get us in after about 10 - 15 minutes, which is really good for not making a reservation. We were seated at a comfortable quiet table. Leonardo was our waiter who took care of us, and was on top of everything. We chose the items from the online menu - I had the Mar Y Pollo, which was a plate of divine chicken, shrimp and rice. It looked like a small portion initially, but I polished it off and was full. My son had some huge bowl of corn, steak and vegetable and boasted how good it was. All in all a very good dining experience. Very good food and very good service. We would eat here again on our next visit to Fiesta Americana!

It's low key and like all the others, dress is casual. I ordered the salmon and avocado salad to start. It was very minimal and very tasty. Everything on the plate was chilled-including the batter fried avocado. The salmon was moist and it was a perfect size for a starter. For dinner I ordered the chicken with poblano mole sauce. Omg. It was delish!! The mole had just the right amount of spice and was not too rich or heavy. It was accompanied by a small side of rice and some veggies. Dessert was awesome. I had the Mexican chocolate mousse. It had a few bits of blue cheese in it-an odd combo that worked well. It was topped with a dice of fig and a raspberry. I walked away from dinner happy and not overstuffed!
