I went with two girlfriends on a Friday night without a reservation around 8 pm. It's outside on the water, and they have performers in rings every half hour for about four hours. This was really cool to see! We got the edamame with truffle to share, which was delicious. I don't like truffle that much, but these were really wonderful and it wasn't overpowering. I also got the tuna spicy bowl. I wish there had been a little more fish (you may want to get sashimi if you're expecting a lot of protein) but it felt perfectly portioned otherwise and was very tasty. Our server was excellent as well! It is a bit of a club-like atmosphere, but not enough so that you can't have a conversation or take kids!
During my stay here in Cancun I visited Ryoshi for some sushi. The overall experience is great. Jonathan and other staff members were very attentive and helpful with ordering. The rolls I ordered were tasty. The ambiance of this place was beautiful. If I ever come back to visit Cancun, I would make another stop by.
New restaurant that just opened up around Easter 2022. It was our last night here and when I type dinner on Yelp, this place never showed up. It was recommended by my sister who never tried it, but she heard about it and when I googled it, it showed the place. I also placed my reservation via google, but when dining there tonight, it didn't go through, however, there were room for us. I'm so glad I found this place. Literally a hidden gem. The entrance is through the construction of the mall (left side) and when walking straight in, it's easy to find. I believe there were more staff than the customers which is great! 2 hostesses, 20 plus servers, idk how many chefs but food came out quick and delicious, 4-5 bartenders and my mezcal was awesomeee! I can't compliment the place enough. Luis was nice, I believe he was the manager and he was very accommodating. Everything was detailed... from the ambience of the place, to the detailed bathroom hand towel, fish pond and everyone was so attentive. My family and I had such a pleasant time. Most importantly, everything tasted great; we had brussel sprouts which usually has a bitter taste to it, but not this one, the Brussels are thinly cut, crispy, tossed in sweet soy sauce and I believe pine nuts that's what you call it, that was in there. We also had fried cheese and came with some sort of bbq sauce (i believe that was). Yum! I had the duck entree which tasted like fish! My husband had cod with risotto and he loved it. The risotto was cheesy and not mushy! My kids had shrimp rice dish which they split it. As for dessert, we had fried sweet ice cream which was out of this world. For sure, I recommend this place! Can't go wrong. Bon appetite! There entertainment was fun to watch! Acrobats!
Absolutely amazing value for a 6 diamond experience. Wife and I had a nice 2 hour meal, tapas style with drinks. Starts with hostess and entrance. Feels like entering a jungle / treehouse (easy to forget you are close to a luxury mall) Ambiance, Menu and staff knowledge/ recommendations are amazing. Simon the server was very cool and informative. Marco was solid staff leader. Staff and ambience to food quality and entertainment energy = 100
Absolutely beyond what we ever imagined for this place! From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, we were treated like gold. Axel was our server and he did a phenomenal job. He had many recommendations and he really knew the menu. He explained anything we needed with ease, both in Spanish and English. The ambiance is unbelievable as well. This restaurant is located right on the bay. Next time we're back to Cancun, this will be our number one spot! There was a live DJ and a show with performers. Absolutely stunning!! Must go!!
This restaurant is absolutely gorgeous and is enormous. It faces the lagoon so be sure to get a seat by the water. Apparently there is entertainment on certain days so you may want to check when that is before making a reservation. The gyoza was drowning in a sauce so perhaps it should be on the side as we found it overbearing. The baby corn was my fav and I ordered a 2nd one. The wagyu was 30 bucks for 3 bites so overpriced. The yellowtail was nice. The drinks we ordered were pretty and refreshing. Service was friendly and attentive. I believe our server was Alexander and there was another maybe Eric (?) who helped us too with the birthday celebration for my toddler. Excellent service. Our visit was Feb. 8th, 2023. Overall, it's a fabulous place for dinner but prices are higher than expected.
Let me tell you, these crispy brussel sprouts were kickin' I never had something like that before. The were light and crispy but that sweet teriyaki sauce gave an explosion of flavor. I also ordered the miso soup which was very tasty and the salmon-salmon sushi. We also ordered the Macadamia pie which was very sweet but so dense and delicious. This restaurant looks like an elaborate, beautiful tree house on the water and the views were killer. The bathroom was so clean and I loved that they provided mouthwash. This is a fantastic restaurant to check out if shopping in La Isla in Cancun.
Had dinner with a friend here. She is local and knew about it. In having come multiple times to La Isla since 2019, I had no idea this restaurant is here! It is well hidden behind the Fashion Mall area and directly on the Lagoon. We had a reservation, but it was not busy. We were seated immediately. A waiter immediately presented a drink menu and the food menu. Service through out the meal was super attentive. I selected the salmon taquitos and the spare rib dumplings. The portions are petite. After being in the sun, I wasn't super hungry. My friend selected one of the bowls and it looked delicious! It was also a huge portion. She had a Waygu starter as well. I was drinking sparkling water, but my friend had a couple really exotic cocktails. On one, they top it with a rice crispie treat and flame it so the marshmello gets toasted! We decided to split a dessert and I picked their version of Bananas Foster. It was sliced bananas and vanilla ice cream topped with brown sugar, that they flame table side. The ambience is great with even koi fish in illuminated ponds you traverse on boardwalks. I also liked the unobstructed view of the lagoon. We sat in the open air portion by the bar, but they also have air conditioned indoor seating. The bill was $120US before tip. Cool place, but definitely pricey.
Don't miss this placed. We came for husbands BDay not expecting much and we were just blown away. From the incredible fresh sushi and food. To the beautifully decorated spot. This maybe all around one of the best place in Cancun. Plus the attention to detail and outstanding service add on top the show. Just don't miss out.
Last night hubby and I treated ourselves to a lovely dinner and unexpected show!! At La Isla shopping near the high end shops is the restaurant tucked under the ambiance of what a fishing village would look like. We ordered multiple appetizers some sushi and the rib eye. The staff was exceptional- Antonio (Tono), Carlos and a woman also. The show was acrobatics and fire. The vibe was fun with the lights and music. It is directly on the bay so the sunset would be awesome. It was so easy to walk from our hotel to this plaza.
10/10 recommend, Ryoshi is hands down the best restaurant I've been to this year! We went during a one week vacation and had such a great experience that we went again on our last night. The food and the service are excellent and they have a show in the evening, starting at 8:30. Our server Dani made our night, he was friendly, attentive and accommodating to our one year old daughter :)

Stunningly beautiful restaurant on the lagoon in Cancun! Exceptional service!! Delicious cuisine! Freshening cocktails! Amazing performances! Performance start at 830pm, 9pm and 930pm. There is a parking deck! We were walking distance from Westin Lagunamar. Highly recommend! read more

The place is a circus a real show. The food is great when cooked, bad quality fish though (raw), the music is @ the right decibels level, the service is lacking training,--they forgot half of our order (party of eight). Fluent in Spanish just like in English. The staff speaks both well, however, they take your order wrong and half of their sake menu is missing in the cellar. I had heard of the lack of tuna quality at this place and it's very much truth. The staff goes above and beyond to ignore you. Then avoid seating next to the lagoon near the deck. The deck is in bad shape; a real hazard management won't do anything to fix it. This old lady was walking and then I saw her falling over and asking for Advil or something and they refused to do anything. She was clearly bleeding pretty bad fall. Easy negligence lawsuit. She asked the manager if he could call the drugstore in the same mall to deliver it. He denied that to her. Overall the food is Japanese indeed. However sushi, fish and sashimi quality is poor. Beef is the best option here. VEGAN TIP: the staff really don't want to make special vegan only sushi, so a simple cucumber, avocado roll will be charged as a full California roll. read more
We LOVED Ryoshi!!! We have tried many, many, many restaurants in the Cancun area over the years & this is by far one of the best ones we have been to. The inside of Ryoshi is beautiful. It was a very fun and upbeat place to have dinner that is right on the water. The night we were there they had a fire show going on, making it a dinner experience I haven't found anywhere else. All of the food and drinks were absolutely amazing. Most items were small plates, so we tried a ton of menu items. A must have is the Ryoshi Bowl. It was the best poke bowl we've ever had with the freshest fish & tons of flavor from all the toppings. Other favorites were the Shrimp Gyoza, Rock Cauliflower and Red Dragon roll. Our service was great too. We were helped by Yole and Manoel and we had no complaints. There was no hesitation when we received the wrong drink - the correct one was brought out right away. LOVED this place!!!! Can't not emphasize enough much I recommend coming here if you are in Cancun! read more

Holy cow. The only thing better than the food and Service is the DJ. Make sure you are aggressive and get a seat by the water. Don't settle for the seat by the fire extinguisher. You will understand. Trust me. This was the highlight of our trip.ask for Simon. Buy the DJ a drink. read more

Now I'm going to be very honest Once we were seated, we weren't greeted for 30 minutes. HIGHLY UNACCEPTABLE. After we waited and I became impatient someone noticed and walked over and apologized. From that moment forward everything was perfect. The appetizer (calamari) was fantastic! I ordered the salmon and asparagus and it was Delicious. I asked the server to make me a fruity refreshing drink and boy was it amazing !!!! They didn't have a name for it. They server was one of the best servers I've encountered in a long time. He was so knowledgeable and everything he recommended was amazing. This restaurant is located on the water and it's gorgeous. A nice romantic spot. I don't know the prices but i really recommend this place. read more

Amazing time here! Our server, Antonio, was a gem. Such a personable restaurant -- it's genuinely an experience. Sushi was phenomenal, and I don't typically like "fishier" seafood. I ate and loved everything on the table. It's a beautiful restaurant for anyone looking for that beautiful, vacation-aesthetic for photos. Lovely staff, not a bad seat in the house, $$-$$$. Can't go wrong! read more

As soon as you walk in, you know you are in for a great night just by the atmosphere. Ryoshi successfully creates a perfect balance of family dinner meets a pregame dinner before a night out in downtown cancun. Above all, the first thing that stood out was the service. Carlos was incredibly welcoming, attentive, and knowledgeable. We got to know each other a little bit, made some jokes and watched the shows together! There are multiple shows throughout the evening that are definitely a "do not miss" experience - my favorite by far was the fire show! If you stay at the Westin, you receive a complimentary drink called Amaterasu made with mezcal and hibiscus that is super refreshing (...I had 2). The food was unique and incredible. Living near a coast, I am super picky about seafood and this seafood was fresh and delicious! I had: Sashimi ranqueo: raw cuts of different parts of the tuna - it was awesome! Pork belly skewers Udon con wagyu: the meat here melts in your mouth and the pasta is delicious! The broth it comes in is thick, creamy and very very rich so make sure you leave space for it if interested read more

Amazing ambiance with several nightly shows beginning at 830. Some of the best food I've ever had - and the best Brussels sprouts of my life. And the banana pie. Was there for 3 hours for ultimate experience and show after show. Amazing. And our server - I forget his name - was awesome. We just took his recommendations. Ate a whole lot of food and it was still under $200. Top notch service like a Michelin Star place - constant water pouring, napkin folding. Just perfect. read more

Absolutely wonderful meal and atmosphere. The broccoli and Brussel sprouts were crispy and flavorful. Our table of four shared the cooked at table side steak and several sushi rolls. All were excellent. Ernesto gave us great suggestions, Erik took care of all our questions and Jessica was so attentive. The view is amazing. Highly recommend. read more
Unfortunately we discovered Ryoshi the last night of our trip, if we found it at the beginning of our trip we would have came multiple times. It was INCREDIBLE. The vibes are immaculate, the decor, the light fixtures, the location, it's absolutely beautiful. The food was prepared with care and the seafood was high quality. After eating at a few "highly quality" deemed restaurants we were left feeling sick. I'm not sure how this restaurant only has 3 reviews but if you're in the Cancun area you'd be missing out if you didn't try Ryoshi. The entire wait staff was friendly and helpful. We ordered the wagyu roll, short rib gyosas, edamame, salmon lover roll, tuna crispy roll, and hamachi nigiri all items were 10/10. The martini lychee was also divine. Thank you for a great send off xx read more

We tried udon with wagyu and is actually just spaghetti not udon, we asked the chef to get rid of it because it tasted awful, and in the end they still charged us fully because we ate 2 pieces of wagyu???? If you are expecting authentic Japanese food this is far away from it. The plates look fancy but the taste is awful read more

Okay, if you're staying in the hotel zone and do not feel like taking a cab ride or bus ride anywhere, this place is AMAZING. -To start, the service was perfect. People would come by every few minutes to wipe down your table (without bothering you) and switching out dirty plates. Our waiter was excellent as well, (his name was Alex) made sure to review our order before taking it back to make sure he got everything right, everything was timed very well! -Now onto the food: the food was WONDERFUL. Once we got to our table we learned that every Tuesday they cut a fresh tuna (you can watch them do it on a screen.) The tuna was fairly priced. (Definitely not a rip off, very worth the price, that goes for everything here!) The tuna was the best fish I have ever had. It was so fresh (clearly) and absolutely amazing. Then we got our rolls, they have a great selection. They were so good! Everything tasted so fresh and healthy. -Vibe: the vibe was wonderful. The lighting was amazing, music was so upbeat and fun, the whole night there was entertainment: dancers with fire, acrobats, etc! Definitely recommend for a chill, yet party vibe! For sure recommend this place, its wonderful! read more

So - we almost didn't go here because of the review about the service - and boy would we have missed out! First - to the service - it was among the best we've ever had. The waiter, manager and busboy were all super attentive. The busboy quietly made sure our glasses were always full, that we had clean plates in between items, and that the table was clean! Wow! The manager and waiter were attentive and gave great recommendations that we are so glad we listened to! My husband had the tuna sushimi - caught fresh and included 4 different parts of the tuna. I had the Black Cod cooked so perfectly it melted in my mouth and the cream corn risotto was the perfect compliment. Our Teens wanted their favorite sushi rolls which were not on the menu but the chef's were able to recreate wonderfully! The finale was banana pie which was literally the best dessert I have ever had. They called it banana pie but it was more than that. Crispy and flaky Mexican cookies topped with ice cream, another cookie with fresh slices bananas and a banana crème and a hard sugar topping that they flamed at the table and caramel drizzled on top! It was presented by our 3 person serving staff and two of the Japanese dancers holding flares! We were there early and as the night progressed there was a DJ and Japanese dancers performing on the side and stage - just amazing! They had this but it didn't take away from the comfortable dining experience - just enhanced! It was on the expensive side (not over the top) - yet so worth it! We might try and go back before we leave....at least for dessert!! If you want great service, great flavors, a beautiful sunset view of the harbor, and a memorable experience in Cancun- we highly recommend! read more
