    Oh La La scores a perfect 10 in the Olympics of dining at Playa Del Carmen. It is a cozy and warm small restaurant just a block away from the hustle and noise of Fifth Avenue. The food is gourmet and tastefully presented. You will find unique dishes, not seen anywhere else in Playa. The service is impeccable, knowledgeable, and courteous even when you spill your lychee martini on the menu. They are always present for any of your needs. It is easy to miss if driving in a taxi by keep your eyes open for white iron fence on the north side of the street near Tenth Avenue. Happy dining!

    We had only one night out in Playa del Carmen so we wanted a nice experience. I read reviews in a Playa Facebook group and decided on Oh Lala. We made the right choice. Easily walked from our hotel to find a very intimate dining space. We were greeted by our waiter at the door and proceeded to have a lovely evening. We selected their craft cocktail, a very fresh burrata, peach, fig, tomato, crostini appetizer, with octopus and sea bass mains. They surprised us by remembering I had noted a birthday on the reservation. Warm and inviting - I can’t recommend them enough.

    This was our second time at Oh La La! Once again we were amazed by the phenomenal quality of food and service. Our server Alex was highly knowledgeable and friendly, and made our dinner a wonderful experience. I said it in my review from last year, this restaurant is by far the classiest, best curated, and delicious restaurant in not only Playa del Carmen but the entire Quintana Roo region. A must go to in PDC, 10/10 ⭐️

    Very good restaurant. I and a few other expats who live in Cozumel came over to PDC specifically to eat an Oh La La. Three of us had eaten there before and we brought another person who had not eaten there. The food was excellent across the board. The scallop appetizer might have been the best dish but it was hard to say. We ordered several appetizers to share (scallops , duck confit tacos, mushrooms in wine sauce and tuna focaccia ) and they were so good two of our group just treated that as their entree also. Two of us did have room for steaks and they were excellent also. We can’t wait to return in a couple of months.
