We had apps prior to the Cirque show (which was amazing), then dinner afterward. Drinks were amazing, can't recall the names but everyone enjoyed what they had. Guacamole was outstanding. Not sure what it made so much better here than other restaurants on the Vidanta site but we all agreed. Entrees were very good, we all tried different things. I had the Chile Verde Tamales w/chicken. Loved the masa, the rest was good. I'm prefer pork but this was the only one they had. If you love this kind I'm sure you would be very happy with it. The tacos are never a bad choice. The stuffed cheese was interesting (strange combo of ingredients) but worked great together. The service was impeccable. Can't say enough there. Our waiter, Alberto was the best. And the ambiance - can't say enough. Beautiful, outdoor and a nice breeze as well. The band that played in the evening was great. Lead woman singer was FANTASTIC. I'd go for drinks and apps to just listen to the band.

We have been here in Cancun for three months and Alex met us on our first day here. We are staying in the canal homes and it’s very close to this place. Alex is a fantastic manager and is always very attentive. The food and drinks are very good. The view is amazing. We have been here like 12 times. We enjoy everything about this place. 5 stars for everything. We have another 1/2 of a month to month here and we will be back at leave three or four times.

Cannot recall the name of our waiter for the life of me but his service was impeccable. Two other staff members also checked in on us throughout the meal. Meal was fantastic and came out in a timely manner. Location is great and dining outside provided a nice view. Late evening dinner would be my recommendation as it is quiet and it’s not too hot.
