    we had an amazing time. I have not had so much fun in a short while for a long time. Thank you for all that hosted this dinner for me and my daughter for her birthday.

    I am genuinely disappointed by this experience at Vistamar on March 29th, 2025. Upon entry, the hostesses were not friendly and immediately took away my birthday balloons. Dinner was okay but the service was terminated by our waiter Yuly because she said she had to go and introduced us to another waiter mid-meal but the other waiter never checked on us. So much so we had to flag down the manager who was wearing a yellow suit in order to get my birthday cake. When the birthday cake came out they didn't offer us plates or utensils or offer to cut the cake. My birthday dinner was ruined and I wouldn't recommend this place to any of my family or friends! Not to mention, the disney live show was random and confusing for a fine dining place such as Vistamar

    The decor of the restaurant was absolutely outstanding... it was different vibe in different areas of the restaurant but it still all fit together so beautifully and well done. Very well put together, my family members and myself were all blown away and inspired. From the restroom to the main entrance, hanging celling red flowers. The food is tasty and well seasoned along with the presentation. Some things need more perfecting... but overall we all enjoyed ourselves. It was a memorable experience for my 35th birthday celebration to say the least.
