I…read morecame here for a bachelorette party and I have to say everything from the drinks to the food were extremely disappointing. The drinks were extremely sour (I got a margarita and an espresso martini and both were not good) and the food was overcooked and lack flavor (I got the shrimp tacos which were inedible). To add to this, the service was extremely slow. This dinner took 4 hours and it was terrible to leave hungry while spending a good amount. I would go elsewhere than come here.

This is one of my go to places when in Tulum. Drinks are good but no happy hour. They do have a…read morelovely set up and private beach so it's comfortable. The fish tacos and barbacoa tacos are divine. Highly recommend but stay away from the oatmeal pancakes. I thought they would be similar to regular flapjacks with oats in the batter. What I got was literally pancakes made of actual oatmeal put on the griddle. Haha! Service is usually good but often feels rushed. Still one of my fave spots though.

The first time we came in I ordered tea and my wife got iced coffee with a hazelnut croissant. All was good and service excellent. The second time we did take out for breakfast. I ordered a breakfast sandwich that had ham, goat cheese with mushrooms and a egg on top. It was fantastic. My wife got the chilaquiles. She liked hers as well. The third time! Haha so now you get where I'm going with this. This place is great. Ok the third visit. I get the avocado toast with goat cheese and zucchini and sun dried tomatoes. Excellent! My wife got the croque monsieur. Very good. In summary we experienced really good food and great service. If and when we return to Tulum we will definitely be coming back.

The bill is presented in this cute little box.

The chefs here are passionate about their dishes and you'll see it in your interactions w/ them. From brekky to dinner - we tried practically the entire menu since we were staying at their resort.

Fresh juices/smoothies in the AM come clutch too. Cocktails are gourmet and desserts even have pairing if you're in the mood! Thank you guys for a wonderful experience!

The vanilla latte was layered with flavor to the last sip. The first thing I noticed was how smooth the coffee was, but also paired with a robust coffee flavor. It was not bitter at all. There's something special about this coffee - one of the best I have ever had. The smoothie was great as well. It wasn't sweet, which was appreciated. It tasted like a healthy option for breakfast. It can seem overwhelming when you walk in as they are ready to serve you and have a large menu. Check it out: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1k3eOY4deKVzWmuHaW3oYfbeI14yUjhVh/view.

We ordered the omelette caprese, fruit plate, açaí bowls, and a breakfast bowl. **The açaí was the best I've had in Tulum.** The açaí was so light and fresh, with a pure açaí base, not blended with yogurt or juice like most places. Adding a side of granola made it perfect. The fruit plate was great because you could mix everything into the açaí and my friends really liked the breakfast bowl and omelette. They also brought us teas in the cutest teapots. Open, airy, beachy, and super relaxed with super healthy food options. My friends and I really enjoyed our slow breakfast here
