    Filet and Filet w/ shrimp.
    Gary H.

    We went here for dinner last night based on other reviews on Yelp and we were not disappointed. Things started off great with 2 for 1 cervezas and very healthy mixed drink. We both ordered the filet, mine came with shrimp. These steaks were quite large, 300gr. Both cooked about right. Veggies and potatoes were also good. Not too busy and service was good. Worth a trip.

    ROAD TRIP: PUERTO MORALES Finally returned to one of our favorites, El Campanario , in Puerto Morelos, and what a fabulous time it was. They moved from their previous location, to Javier Rojo Gomez. There new location is such a peaceful and beautiful setting, with double the space, and have extended hours that now include breakfast . It's a family owned Argentine restaurant of three generations where you are treated as family from the time of your first arrival. And they have an amazing house dog, Fresia , who loves the love. We're totally addicted to their steaks, whether it's the grilled prime rib, filet mignon, ribeye or sirloin. The portions are huge, accompanied by fries or baked potato, broccoli, tomatoes, and fresh bread. The meat is top quality and consistently grilled to perfection. They feature an extensive menu, excellent service and are reasonably priced. It's a lovely setting and we could not have been happier to see our friends. Oh, and excellent live music! What more could you ask for?

    Mollejas: sweetbread

    Wow! Just wow! This place is absolutely amazing! Starting with the customer service! Our server Saul was such a cool guy! Took his time with us, super attentive, 10/10!! Let move on to the food . Appetizers: Mollejas 50 out of 10! All the meat is wood fired so the flavor is amazing! Mollejas were perfectly cooked and so tender! Next we had the bone marrow! Omg! Butter of the Gods! Done immaculately and served with tortillas and a fresh made tomato salsa on the side that was to die for! Main course: My wife had a Tierra y mar: perfectly grilled shrimp over a bed of sautéed vegetables paired with a beautiful cut of ribeye cooked medium of course with a side of mashed potatoes. 50/10! I had the prime rib cut. This was not your typical Lawry's prime rib. It was basically a grilled bone in ribeye that was equally delectable. It was paired with a loaded baked potato. 50/10!! I also mentioned it was my birthday and they brought me out a slice of Mexican home made cheesecake that was also very good! 10/10! Definitely will be back! Everything was above expectations!

    Chiles en Nogada
    Jessica F.

    My steak was cooked to a perfect medium like I ordered it! The service was phenomenal! They had bug spray when they noticed we were getting bitten by mosquitos. My grandparents love this restaurant. My grandma LOVES their chiles en nogada which are typically only served during Sept/Oct during pomegranate season. The music at the next door restaurant is quite loud so it carries over at a nice noise level to their restaurant.

    Ribeye steak
    Adriana M.

    Second time here. Omg this place is amazing! Steak , chicken whatever you can't go wrong. Consistency makes the difference I always visit a place a couple times to see if the service maybe different or food different but el campanario always brings the best. Food and service are just fantastic. Ambiance is delightful, around 7:30pm the will have life music and just and amazing musician playing today we had saxophone .

    Rib-eye with broccoli and baked potato
    Stephanie H.

    Prime Rib

    Amazing dinner. We are visiting from St. Louis, MO. This food was so amazing that we are going to leave our all inclusive resort and come back a second time this week.

    Blue Cheese Filet

    I had a wonderful experience. Even though the address on Google Maps was not update, we still enjoyed ourselves. The Blue Cheese Filet was wonderful. I kept asking for the recipe so i can make back home once i get back to Georgia Lol. The outside dinner was great as well. Service was wonderful and not but expected. I do recommend travelers visiting especially the ones staying on the resort to do visit this place. Nothing but Excellence. 10/10. Definitely Recommend.

    Great outdoor dining that spills out onto the street, with saxophonist playing creating a beautiful evening.
    Mike C.

    This was our last night in Mexico and happened upon this restaurant based on a google review. It was great, very nicely prepared filet, very nice server and live music, saxaphonist, set the mood for a beautiful evening. Cute dogs from the neighborhood wouldn't eat the bread, but were really appreciative of my filiet, and well behaved, too! I really recommend this place. Family run.

We loved it so much, we ended up here twice in the same week. The service is outstanding here and you can tell they pride themselves on customer service. Before the meal, they do drop off bread with dipping sauces, garlic, and butter. The perfect appetizer. One reason I love this place is the salads. They are big enough for split for 2 and I don't think you can go wrong with any of the options. Personally, the cesar salad is my favorite. What I love about this salad, is they make the dressing right in front of you. Definitely a cool and unique experience. The first time, I ordered the tuna steak. It comes with a soy sauce and a garlic butter. These two sauces on the tuna makes for an incredible meal. I cannot say enough good things about this entree! The second night we went my boyfriend and I split the Cesar salad and the skirt steak. We also added on a side of mashed potatoes and grilled veggies. The whole meal was delicious. I couldn't pick a favorite part because everything tasted so good. Splitting this was the perfect meal for two people and we even had a bit left over to snack on the next day. I always have a wonderful experience with even better food when I come here. If you happen to be in the area this is a must stop.

The owners are from Argentina and the menu is written in both Spanish and English. The restaurant serves Argentine wine and brunch/lunch and pastries. The specials board displayed outside the restaurant of daily offerings is what initially drew me in. We weren't very hungry but wanted to sample what they had so we opted to try two empanadas, hot green tea, and this dulce de leche filled meringue cookie. The empanadas were served iced and had a good amount of filling. Heavily fried, the meat one was pleasantly spicy and the cheese and pepper (very interesting pepper I can't recall the unusual name) was very good as well. The tea was brewed fresh and made iced to order. The "cookie" we had was light and although the filling was decadent, I don't believe it was over-the-top sweet. It was cool to see other desserts on the counter which we were unfamiliar with. It took restraint not to order more sweets. The English speaking diners in there claimed the food was delicious and I thought their meals all looked excellent. Service was friendly and efficient. I would return here again if in the area.

The server was attentive to all our needs, helped make recommendations on the menu and helped us pick a delicious bottle of wine that would pair well with our dinner. They addressed us by our last names Mr and Mrs Valles which made me feel even more impressed. They would take away silverware after each meal and provide you with new silverware, they cleaned the table after each meal as well to make sure that even if you had crumbs or a messy eating style they would make sure you had a clean table for the next entree item. During the dinner there was a professional tango dancing couple who dance in front of your table and around the restaurant! It was pretty awesome! Honestly it makes the experience even more exciting. The ambiance is absolutely beautiful during dinner. The view of the ocean from the window seats was also nice to have while enjoying the fine dining Argentinian Cuisines. As for the food we had a Shrimp appetizer that the server recommended paired with Blue Crab Soup. My girlfriend and I also split a Rib Eye steak. Finally we concluded our meal with the Apple Crumble. Let me tell you everything tasted phenomenal! The Argentinian spices and flavor of the shrimp was insanely good, creamy, had some spice, and the flavor was top notch. They cooked our Rib Eye to perfection where the steak literally melted in your mouth! As for the blue crab soup it was absolutely phenomenal and the portion of crab they provide in the soup is perfect. The Apple Crumble would make angels cry in happiness! I am not a big Apple person but the Apple crumble was to die for! Overall, the ambiance can not be beat, the service is phenomenal, the food is delicious, and is a romantic setting that I would highly suggest for couples who are enjoying paradise! Definitely check out this spot for one of your nights in beautiful Cancun!

I did order a flank steak and know this cut is tough but it was very tough. Outside of that this is a great option if you want a steak without steak house prices. I paid $500 peso and the empanada is 75 peso
