The service is quick, the prices are incredibly reasonable, and the food is consistently delicious. Before your meal even arrives, you're served a plate of fresh radishes, cucumber, and lime wedges, plus a selection of toppings including tomatoes, onions, and both a green and red salsa. Unfortunately this location didn't give us the cactus like the other locations did. The red salsa was my favourite, it paired perfectly with the tacos and had just the right amount of heat and flavour. The standout for me was the al pastor taco. The meat was incredibly flavourful with crispy edges, a smoky char, and the perfect balance of savoury spice and sweet pineapple. It was easily one of the best al pastor tacos I had in Playa del Carmen. I also tried the sirloin taco and the chicken breast plate, both of which were excellent. The portions were generous, everything tasted fresh, and the quality was impressive, especially for the price. El Fogón absolutely lived up to the hype. If you're looking for authentic, delicious tacos and grilled meats that won't break the bank, this is a must visit. I loved it so much that I ended up eating at all three locations and every visit was just as good as the last.

If you're looking for authentic Mexican food with excellent service and a great atmosphere, I highly recommend El Fogón. We would definitely come back!

We were…read moreseeking to have 2 first-class dinners while in the Riviera Maya (the other experience was at Benazuza). We chose La Marea after researching it on Tripadvisor, Google and elsewhere, looking at photos and reading credible reviews. La Marea did not fail to deliver on a perfect dining experience. The restaurant is located inside the Viceroy Riviera Maya hotel. It was really hard to find, but that made the experience all that more enjoyable. The Viceroy is the definition of a hidden gem. We were received in a palapa in the reception area of this beautiful property. It was night and the the hotel employee accompanied us through lighted pathways through the hotel's grounds that are covered in lush foliage. The restaurant is located near the water's edge and sits above the hotel's lovely pool and overlooking the bar. The open air restaurant is very, very romantic and well-accoutered with comfortable seating, fine flatware and unique pottery. The menu and wine menu are impressively large, with many Mexican influences. There were so many choices on the regular menu that we could hardly decide what we wanted; they also have a tasting menu, so to have the most diverse dining experience, we chose to have that. I would like to say what great service we received from our waiter Sergio and all the other wait staff and hotel employees (they really make you feel like a VIP), and I would also like to praise Chef Carlos Zamora's creative dishes: they all show the incredible quality of Mexican cuisine in the hands of an artist. Just for fun, we had a coatimundi come into the restaurant from the surrounding trees while we were dining, which was just so amusing to see (I don't think it was his first time). If you want to celebrate a special occasion, or just want to celebrate life, please make a reservation and dine here!

I ordered a pasta with clams and the garlic sauce was amazing. I also had the mushroom risotto. For dessert we had tiramisu and panacota. Very nice! All of it! I recommend being seated on the patio.

Everything that's been described IS real and you can have it here at Sotavento. The dishes at Sotavento are fresh and lightly seasoned (but also its downfall if you're wanting more flavor). My all time favorite order were the grilled oysters with habanero. Though the oysters alone were silky and already perfect to taste, the habanero really elevated the taste with it's spice.

I enjoyed quesabirria for breakfast, because, I was on vacation and the rules don't matter! They also came around several times with fresh juices and pastries. My partner was gaga for the chocolate croissant. There are lots of luxurious daybets and loungers up here that make the day comfortable. The sun feels a bit more intense up here, so I recommend getting a shaded spot! The infinity pool was truly a dream come true for me.

Women: blouses, skirts, slacks or dresses; dress shoes." Like almost every restaurant on property, Bisou is walk in. It was exceptionally busy so we were placed on a waitlist and provided a pager. We went to a nearby lobby bar and had a round before our pager went off, about 15 min later. Indoor and outdoor seated. Opted for whichever was available first, which ended up being outdoor. Our second least favorite restaurant experience at the resort. Service was nowhere near as attentive as meals we had at all the other restaurants. Meal started with a mushroom broth amuse bouche, which was umami and tasty. Then we noticed every table recieved a bread service, but we never did. Menu is broken down into vegetables, seafood starters and mains, and land starters and mains. Skipped the veggies menu and opted for a starter and main from both the seafood and main menu. Oyster starter was mushroom, back truffle, and parm was tasty but there were shells bits up in the oyster. Sea bass fillet in beurre noir sauce with potato feuille, black garlic puree, and basil oil was overcooked and the black garlic puree was way overpowering. Steak tartare starter wasn't too bad but could have used a touch more salt. Beef fillet in puff pastry was a bit dry and also needed some salt. Overall, most of the food was pretty bland and a bit overcooked. The presentation is on point but it didn't make up for the flavor. Also, maybe it was just because it was a busy evening but the service was really slow, even when it slowed down. This was our longest meal and the one we wanted to leave the quickest yet it took 20+ min between every course.
