    I have tried this restaurant twice and have been hugely unimpressed. Fajitas should not be steamed and Palomas should not taste like 2X salt water.

    Food was great. Service was on “resort time” but okay. Problem was table of eight beside us that had elementary school age kids. We were outside and they let them run and scream like they were on a school’s playground. Not what we were expecting with reservations and a nicer ambiance than Salum We go a little later and usually not a problem. They need to gently let parents know it is not McDonalds

    Compared to all of the other restaurants at Grand Maya, this restaurant did not belong at a 4-5 star resort. Oversauced dishes. Overcooked dishes. Poor seating.

    We sat outside under the moon and stars, listening to live mariachi music it was magical. Highly recommend. All the food was excellent.

    Very good food & service . Only complaint was that one child’s dinner came first and the other did not arrive until 10 minutes after the adults meals came !!

    Both of the mole dishes were absolutely fantastic! We got the Oaxaca mole roasted chicken, and the pumpkin seed Verde mole over beef short ribs. Only time I have ever truly loved a mole dish and used some of the additional sauce that was served on the side. Highly recommend both of these unusual and outstanding dishes!
