Reservations are recommended during peak seasons. The flavors are packed into every bite. So delicious. The spaghetti and meatballs and the lasagne are two of our favorites. Will order again and again. Bottom line- Absolutely wonderful Italian food. Flavor packed into every bite. You should give it a try. Save room for dessert. Bon appétit, y'all.

We have been to Isla 7 or 8 times now. Have tried so many places it feels like we have eaten at more places that we have not. Not too many places have we gone to that when we left, we say we will be back here. This is that place. Exceptional food, authentic tasting Italian food in Isla. Dan (husband of the owner team) came and visited with us a couple times. You can tell he loves the place as much as anyone. Next time we come down from Washington, we will be back, probably multiple times.

The food at Mamarosa in Isla Mujeres was absolutely delicious and beautifully prepared, but…read moreunfortunately, the service was extremely disappointing. We were only checked on once during the entire meal. Although staff walked past our table repeatedly, no one offered drink refills or asked whether we wanted dessert. Meanwhile, other tables appeared to receive much more attentive service, which made us feel overlooked. One staff member was also noticeably unfriendly. They never smiled, seemed irritated, and gave the impression that they did not want to be there. Their attitude made the experience feel uncomfortable and unwelcoming. Even after our table was completely cleared, we waited another five full minutes without anyone bringing the check or acknowledging us. I finally had to get up and pay at the register on my way out. It is disappointing because the food was excellent and deserves to be matched with friendly, attentive service. We also acknowledged it to a waiter with the owner at her desk. Not once did they apologize for their bad service. With better hospitality and equal attention given to every table, this restaurant could be outstanding.

I was disappointed when I realized only some pastas were homemade and made the mistake of ordering the cheese wheel spaghetti. It was tasty, but nothing special other than watching the show. The carpaccio was pretty good and my parents enjoyed their salad. Would I try this place again? Yes - I'd just try something different as I'd love to know how their homemade pasta tastes.

Our experience was absolutely excellent from start to finish. The service provided by Felipe and Anselmo was beyond impeccable and the food was delicious. My meal was made tableside by Felipe and served in the wok it was made in and I was sung "Happy Birthday" in Italian, which was fun. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening at Cenacolo, all thanks to Felipe and Anselmo's fantastic hospitality. Further, who knew you could get such good Italian food in Mexico? Absolutely recommend Cenacolo if you're in Cancun!

Mixed review for Angelo's - we visited on night one and had a phenomenal experience. 6 people and…read morewe ordered so much food - every single item was out of this world. My favorite was the lobster - and whatever sour cream/cheese/butter they serve with the baked potato was the stuff loaded potato dreams are made of. Second trip - prices seemed to have doubled and I'm not sure how our bill was so high. Lobster cost 3x as much as the previous visit 48 hours before, and while I understand market prices, that seemed a bit extreme. Also had trouble with our bill after it posted - the restaurant added an additional tip despite us tipping very well in pesos. Overall - great food, but pay attention to your bill.

April 4, 2026 - 5 Stars!…read more Our group of 6 went to La Pizzarra based on positive reviews here and on Google. It was great!! It was as good of meal as we had our entire vacation- and the price was very reasonable, especially when compared to resort/hotel prices. It sits on the lagoon so there are really nice views- we prefer to sit outside and it was great. The warm rolls they brought out were delicious We started with 2 pizzas to share, and both were fantastic. We tried the BarBQ chicken pizza and the meatlovers- both really really good We all had pasta for main course. There is one dish that was penne with shrimp and chicken- that was the best. The fettuccine Alfredo was great, definitely better than average. The spicy shrimp pasta was ok- the pasta was undercooked but the shrimp and pesto was tasty. If you're looking for really good pizza & pasta- we highly recommend. We went at/around 7pm and didn't need reservations. Staff was outstanding- very friendly and very attentive

La Pizzarra delivered a thin-crust beauty loaded with quality pepperoni and well-seasoned meatballs. The sauce had just the right touch of sweetness, and the crust held up perfectly -- no flop, no soggy center, just a slice you could fold and enjoy. When you're on vacation and craving something familiar done right, this is exactly what you hope to find. A low-key win in the middle of the Hotel Zone. Highly recommend.

We (2 persons) were sat at the same time as a four top and it took us twice as long to get our drinks and food. The calamari had a fishy taste. The pasta took almost 45 minutes and did not taste like it was freshly made. While the servers were kind, the service was incredibly slow for an empty restaurant. The atmosphere was chill and enjoyed the views in a rainstorm.

I wish the dish was a little larger (3.8/5) Mains- 1) 4 cheese pizza - that was the weakest item in the entire meal - small and not crispy, felt like a 9 year old prepared it (2/5) 2) mushroom risotto was pretty good . Flavourful and rich . 3,8/5 We also got some house bread that was fantastic with some olive oil , and some home made limioncello as dejastif. Drinks were good with nice selection and reasonable prices It was quite expensive and we'll probably not return again

Before the first bite ever reaches your table, the aroma from the wood fired oven begins its quiet work, drifting through the dining room like an invisible invitation. We were greeted by the most beautiful hostess, wearing a smile that could stop time. She looked like she had stepped straight out of a Diego Rivera painting, her luminous skin glowing beneath the warm light, bold red lipstick blooming like a scarlet flower against a sleek black evening gown. Every feature seemed painted with deliberate confidence and striking contrast. Honestly, catching a glimpse of her was worth the visit alone. Then there was Jonathan, one of the bussers, a towering gentle giant whose quiet presence anchored the room. Despite his imposing stature, he possessed an intuitive understanding of the subtle choreography that defines exceptional fine dining. It often felt as though he could read our minds. Just as a question was beginning to form or a decision lingered between possibilities, he would appear with the recommendation we didn't yet know we needed. His timing was flawless, his attentiveness effortless, and his hospitality transformed service into something that felt choreographed!
