    Taboo offers an electric ambience paired with vibrant live entertainment, making it a great choice for a lively evening out. The Mediterranean-inspired cuisine was delicious, though the portions were quite small relative to the high price point. The service was generally good, but we had an issue when settling the check: a 15% tip had already been added, though the server claimed it hadn’t. A quick translation of the receipt clarified the charge. The stunning location overlooking the Nichupté Lagoon, combined with its sophisticated and bohemian design, certainly adds to the appeal. If you’re looking for a mix of energy, good food, and a unique atmosphere, Taboo is worth a visit—just double-check your bill for accuracy.

    Unfortunately, very disappointing meal. The octopus was too chewy. The service was good, however. The restaurant is very noisy. We came to Taboo every year since it opened, but this time we regretted coming.

    First things first, the restaurant, food and vibe is unreal. The service was amazing and the attention to detail is unrivalled. Melanie (our server) let herself down when she asked us if we wanted to try the Mexican water, which 2 of us did…..she then charged us £180 for 2 tequilas. That’s excessive by anyone’s standards and there was no mention of price. The boss takes payment so when the bill comes out, she’s long gone, presumably with a healthy commission. I thought it was a cheap shot. So, be warned, it’s a gimmick to hammer you at the end of the meal. If it wasn’t for that, it would’ve been one the best experiences in a long long time!! The Kobe Beef Tenderloin was just exceptional.

    Great meal and ambiance w show at 9pm and 10pm. Loved Greek salad and Octopus dinner. Would suggest doing shots rather than cocktails as it comes with lively presentation (and the martinis weren't that great). Service was excellent
