Once we stepped onto the deck overlooking the lagoon, the whole experience elevated even further. The scenery was stunning, soft lights reflecting off the water, a gentle breeze, and live music drifting through the air like the perfect soundtrack to an already unforgettable night. Then came the food, each dish was its own little masterpiece. The bread service alone set the tone: warm, golden rolls with just the right touch off salt. The wedge salad followed. It was crisp, cold, and generously dressed, with smoky bacon and bright tomatoes adding all the right contrasts. The dry-aged steak was the star of the table, cooked perfectly with that deep, rich flavor only dry-aging can create. The roasted peppers and silky sauce on the side made every bite feel intentional. The octopus was another standout, tender, beautifully charred, and plated with a vibrant puree that balanced the dish with a touch of sweetness. One of the best plates we had. The table got more entrees since there were 8 of us but didn't get pictures. Sea brass was another favorite. Even the lobster soup arrived with flair: a velvety bowl paired with a seafood-topped toast that brought texture and richness together in one elegant bite. The beef tartare with fries was classic and fresh, refined without losing its fun. Dessert turned into a full performance. The liquid-nitrogen ice cream came with swirling clouds of cold vapor, dramatic and delicious. The birthday cake arrived crowned with berries and a sparkling candle that lit up the whole table. And just when we thought the night couldn't get any more whimsical, out came the towering blue cotton candy, playful, over-the-top, and impossible not to smile at. Harry's doesn't just serve dinner. It creates an experience, one where the service, the scenery, the atmosphere, and the food all work together to make you feel celebrated. Our night felt luxurious, thoughtful, and truly unforgettable for my husband's 50th birthday! Well done Harry's!

    8/2/26-8/8/26 We had…read more3 dinners here at La Casona (all inclusive plan). We are steak lovers and this place did not disappoint. The service was great, the steaks were cooked to perfection, and the seafood was fresh. Any time we requested modification in the entree or appetizer, our server always ensured the kitchen carried the request out. Drinks were refilled promptly when it was half way empty. My youngest daughter who despises meat ate her tenderloin steak all by herself and did not have one complaint. We even celebrated me and my daughter's birthday on the last dinner here. It is always a great meal. Highly recommended! I could not say more about the all inclusive plan and the ability to choose from such great food.

    First off, I wanted to start by mentioning that we came here as part of our all-inclusive plan,…read moretherefore I cannot remember what the prices of these items would be if we paid for it.. I also can never complain about "free" food- so truly a 5/5. But since I am here to be an honest yelper, let's dive into the details! We were able to dine here twice during our stay, and were able to get reservations only by booking a day in advance- it's not a place you can get into last minute, at least during the busy season- and that goes for all of the restaurants on the property. The staff was BEYOND amazing, truly so kind, helpful, considerate, professional, everything I would hope for and more. We were celebrating my birthday and they sang a wonderful song and remembered us the second time we came back- a few days later. We had a few hits and a few less-exciting dishes when we visited, so I will touch on those. We came back a second time because of the Octopus. He had it two different ways, and My fiance raved about it, a total hit. I tested almost every caesar salad on the property and this one was my favorite. The strawberry jelly dessert with whatever that crumbly stuff was- a big yes from both of us! They unfortunately didn't have it the second time and that may have been a big reason we returned- so bummer! But good to know that stuff is made fresh and therefore runs out. For the less-appetizing dishes- the cauliflower. If you look at my photo of it, it truly was just a slab of cauliflower- slightly undercooked and underseasoned. There was a sweet potato puree and a coconut milk drizzle, all so creative, but ultimately lacked flavor. Skip this one. The carrot cake looks like it has evolved over the years when I look at other yelpers photos, ours was unfortunately prettier than it was tasty. I would transport back here in a heartbeat if given the chance though! Oh and the WINE!! Enjoy!

    Chambao Cancun absolutely delivers on the vibe, music, and service. The staff was attentive,…read morepolished, and made the experience feel special from start to finish. The atmosphere is lively, upscale, and clearly designed for people who want dinner to feel like a whole event. Food wise, this is where things fell a bit short for me. I ordered the spicy Maine lobster croquettes, ribeye steak (the smallest) Chambao potatoes and potato mille feuille, and shrimp. While the flavors were there, the dishes came out lukewarm, which was disappointing especially given the price point and wait time for food. At this level, temperature and execution really matter. The food wasn't bad, but for what we paid, I honestly expected more. For comparison, I could have had a stronger overall meal in the Seaport area of Boston at a similar or even lower price point. That said, if you're going for the experience, ambiance, music, and top tier staff, Chambao hits the mark. Just know that the food may not fully match the hype or cost. Overall: Amazing vibe and service, solid flavors, but execution didn't quite justify the price.

My twin sis, mother, and I have made a tradition to coming to Cancun for thanksgiving every year and this time I brought my girlfriend and we absolutely loved it. The guacamole was amazing. Freshest I've ever had and the quaint dimly lit atmosphere created a memorably intimate experience. I enjoyed the crab legs, octopus, and more. This place is definitely one of the bucle list places for Cancun so I highly recommend since it's on the back bay and overlooks the water.
