There are all kinds of toppings to choose from, which is awesome. I would have rated it more highly, but there's something about the Mexican flavors that are a bit off compared to the expectations that I have for the rich, creamy ice cream that we are accustomed to in the United States. All of the other ice cream places in the area seem to be serving gelato, so perhaps they just have a different idea of how ice cream should be made to taste then we do back home.

The seafood ceviche is one of our favorites. Prices are reasonable and the service is excellent. You will see your favorite server year after year as there is minimal turnover. The vibe here is laid back, very laid back. On this visit we arrived in our swim suits and I was sans shirt. No shirt no shoes no problem here! As a bonus they do accept CCs for payment.

An impressive place that raises the bar for the whole street. Reasonable prices and a great menu with options that will please vegetarians (and vegans), pescatarians, and carnivores.

Our two entrees included the grilled vegetables, which were delicious and the red snapper, which evoked moans of "OMG". Wine prices (by glass or bottle) are a little higher than others on the street but consistent with the quality of the food and service. We did not sample the desserts, which included coconut ice cream and an apple strudel with vanilla ice cream.

With plastic chairs they should put cushions on top to prevent sweating. (Our hotel has cushions on the outdoor dining areas because it's so hot here and sitting outside can be uncomfortable without a cushion). For our meal we ordered the specials. While beautifully plated somehow it lacked a little flavor on mine. My hubby had prawns with sailfish in garlic butter. Also we were given a fish amuse bouche which had 3 chili pepper condiments. They were all very very spicy. I barely had any, like a tiny taste and my husband as well, the result later being that my husband and and I were pretty sick all night and the next day. He actually had to go to the doctor 2 days later as he was still quite ill and in pain. While There was a significant burning in my stomach from the chili acid, he believes his situation was probably some bacteria in the food which is too bad because the restaurant is pretty upscale and clean so I doubt we got it from the ice. Anyways we can't go back. I also think the waiters could check on the diners to see how the food is after you start eating to make sure it's ok, like other waiters at these surrounding restaurants do. Somehow This never happened.

It was very hot while we dined and there was no breeze. A fan would have been wonderful! The bad: You choose 2 or 3 courses for $1300 or $1500MXN. At this price, you expect really exceptional food. This just wasn't the case for us. I ordered the steak, which came with a green sauce and potatoes. The potatoes were delicious. The filet was more like a sirloin but was more tough than a sirloin. It was very disappointing, but more than that, when the server asked how everything was, he seemed as if he already knew the steak was tough. I ended up getting the coconut shrimp (4) instead. They were served on a bed of cooked and spiced apples along with a salad rolled up in thinly sliced jicama similar to a sushi roll. The second course I ordered was dessert. The pictures don't do the presentation justice because it is so dark, but the food is beautiful. Paying this much for coconut shrimp and dessert (basically a molten lava cake with vanilla ice cream) really left me feeling very disappointed. Would not recommend nor return.
