    Indian food , specifically Kabab and Prawn dish were outstanding! Garlic Nan - could have been better . Kulfi - do away with artificial food scent of pistachios. Chef is doing great job with Indian Food . Thai Chicken Satay - needs lot of focus to augment from its current state. Overall great service , by the lagoon , great ambience. Enjoyed very much and will come back .

    This is always one of our favorite spots for a sunset dinner when we are in Cancun. Beautiful view and quiet enough to enjoy conversation. Cucumber martini was not prepared as remembered from prior visits and was a disappointment. Requested an extra serving spoon and they brought extra rice instead...simple miscommunication...but then they charged for it, which was off-putting. Otherwise, it was a nice dinner experience. Food is always good, and the portions are very sharable - the sampler app and 3 entrees were plenty for the 5 of us - plus several orders of naan because GARLIC NAAN! YUM!

    they forgot/didn’t acknowledge we had a birthday on our party :( as mentioned on our reservation. our table was great but they sat us next to a family whose children were pretty loud, we understand kids will be kids but they were all over the place, considering restaurant was pretty empty (parents fault for not being conscious of others) other than that service is good, food is always great and place is beautiful.
