    Great sunset view, delicious food and drinks. Love this place.good drinks and great service.

    Just some pizza box, and a styrofoam container that may or may not contain an ensalada.

    - Lobster Pizza and Ensalada Mixta - solid pizza pies, think crispy - lots of lobster. - Pizza Fiesta Mexican (to go order, for back at the casita) - delicious. Tip. Request crispy crust. While I did not spend a lot of time to make my pictures Yelp Elite quality - the pies were delicious, make a decision on the write up, not the pics.

    Nice view outdoor seating.

    Consistently great pizza pre race. Love the atmosphere. Great service. The garlic bread is off the hook. The Popeyes Pizza with spinach and its covered is great. Margarita is very good. Would like more basil. We have had the Cozumel too. Sitting on the deck and a stones throw from the ocean.

    Our local friend suggested Rolandi's and we were glad he did. We're from New York where good Italian restaurants are a dime a dozen, but this place did not disappoint. The location right on the sea just shy of the hustle and bustle of town is fabulous. They have an extensive menu. The grilled fish in garlic sauce I ordered was delicious. My husband had the veal ravioli. We shared beef carpaccio with truffle oil and Parmesan. The mojito my husband ordered was the best he had all week. I had the Miami Vice - a mix of pina colada and strawberry daiquiri. Great service! Highly recommend this restaurant if you're having a hankering for reasonably-priced Italian cuisine ... with a view.

    Beautiful perfect view!!

    Delicious and wonderful atmosphere! We watched the sunset with glasses of wine and then indulged for our last night in Cozumel. Make sure to get a table right at the water, they take reservations! The home made noodles with Gorgonzola were absolutely fantastic. I added mushrooms and chicken-- YUM YUM I wish I could eat it again. My mom got the steak and loved it, ordered a size of Gorgonzola to dip the fries in. My dad got the fresh fish with veggies. We asked for a side of fresh habanero which added a kick to everything. We will be back here!

    The most amazing lobster. A beautiful setting, perfect for watching the sunset. And the staff was professional and attentive. It may seem a little blah from the outside but you will be pleased.

    Not bad at all. This is one of the fancier places in town and serves both pizza and seafood. Pizza is wood fired and looked good. The bread served was pizza dough made thin and pretty good. Seafood salad appetizer was really good. Wife had lobster and it was yummy. I had the shrimp and good as well. Wine list was better than expected and found a nice white. Service was average at best with long waits and multi waiters. Dinner for two came out about 140usd with tip. If you want the freshest seafood try Guidos, which has a history sort of with Rolandis.

    Lovely dinner next to the water.

    This place was awesome! We have walked past it for years while staying here on the island. We had catch of the day along with several other dishes. We were not disappointed! Great service as well!

    I am never one to give a restaurant five stars, but this place was fantastic! We wanted a place that served something other than Mexican food and this place did just that! My husband and I are in Cozumel for our honeymoon and we went here on our last night (was in our hotel travel guide and was suggested by another guest who is a frequent visitor to Cozumel) and it did not disappoint. To start, we were seated on the edge of a dock right by the ocean with a lovely candle light ambience. We each got a beer and then we split their capraese salad for an appetizer and we were thrilled that they had pizza! We split the dimatia and the one with pepperoni. They told us they were personal pizzas but we could have easily split one! We were so full that we didn't get any dessert, but I am certain it would not have disappointed.

    The pizza is really great, and so are the drinks. Great service. Beautiful view. I came here for lunch on a Sunday, and it was very peaceful. I watched the cute little birds on the patio that wanted us to feed them. The complimentary bread is very unique and worth trying. The habanero sauce it comes with is spicy but not terribly overwhelming. The ravioli isn't bad, but the pizza is great. The drinks are a good size. I'm honestly not sure why the place wasn't busier.

    Dessert.  Ice cream wrapped with cake and a bunch of other good things...  Soooo good.
    Brian W.

    After two straight nights of visiting the restaurant/bar next door and up the stairs, the wife and I came here for our final night in Cozumel The sunset view? Incredible. The food? Great selection. The service? Outstanding. Hidden gem by far from the main hotels, next to that jimmy Buffet place. Check it out!!

Now the food! I am from a very prominent Italian food area and I was very impressed with that selections. The lasagna was stunning, the carbonara needed nothing and gave you that sweet hug from the inside you dream of. I got the ravioli with butternut squash and ricotta. I was stunned. It has been over a week since I had it and I still dream about it at night. What a hidden gem!

    There are restaurants you enjoy, and then there are places that become part of your vacation…read moretraditions. For us, Sorrisi is the latter. For more than 10 years, every trip to Cozumel has included at least four or five meals here. It simply wouldn't feel like Cozumel without Sorrisi. From the very first bite, you can tell everything is made with love and from scratch. The pizza is outstanding, the pasta is always fresh, and the desserts are absolutely worth saving room for. Some of our all-time favorites are the Chicken Parmesan, the baked gnocchi, and the fresh sangria--each one is consistently delicious and keeps us coming back for more. But what truly makes Sorrisi unforgettable is the people. Over the years, we've been welcomed not just as customers, but as friends. The staff is always warm, attentive, and genuinely happy to see you. On our most recent visit, Gaspar and his incredible team made us feel so special by preparing an off-menu favorite just for us. It's those thoughtful touches and genuine kindness that set this restaurant apart. Thank you, Gaspar and everyone at Sorrisi, for so many wonderful meals and memories over the years. We look forward to every visit and can't wait to return again. If you're lucky enough to find yourself in Cozumel, don't miss the chance to experience Sorrisi. We have no doubt you'll understand why it's become such a special place in our hearts.

We were looking for a place and as I was checking reviews, I noted that La Terraza opened in place of Primas now, so we decided to give it a try. We were greeted and seated by the owner. Service was excellent. We ordered Beers while looking over the extensive Italian menu. Much of the menu items were the same as Primas, which leads me to believe different owner, same Chef? We started off with the Blue Cheese Salad, then ordered the Coconut Shrimp, Chicken Picatta, Shrimp appetizer, and the Lobster Pasta. The food was OK, portions were big. The salad was overdressed, Lobster in the pasta was bland and overcooked. The pesto on my toast for the shrimp appetizer tasted old and looked brown. The Coconut Shrimp and Chicken were good though.

Although Yelp still shows it being open and the last look on yelp shows "Opens in 20 minutes." Couldn't possibly be. Im sure Cozumel is having some tough times due to the covid-19 issues. La Terraza was a favorite in Cozumel, that's for sure. The first time I went there, many many years ago, it was called Prima. Prima closed down and moved to the top of another building but it didn't last long there. Then La Terraza opened back up where Prima used to be. The same great food as before and it seemed to be doing ok. The reputation brought people back there time after time. I know it did me too. So if you happen to get on the island and are expecting to go here for dinner, at least now anyway, plan on being disappointed, because it's no longer open and be prepared to go elsewhere. Really too bad. Ed and Shannon (the owners) were pretty nice people.
