Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Playa del Carmen / Riviera Maya

We stayed at the Xcaret hotel so it was an easy walk to the restaurant. Food was spectacular, attention to detail evident in plating and presentation, and service was excellent. We declined the alcohol due to medical reasons, and the non alcoholic drinks were a thoughtful, pleasant surprise to us. One member of our party does not speak Spanish, so they had a lead waiter who explain the dishes in English. Booking the reservation with OpenTable was very easy and we would do it again!

Luma Taverna provided me and my family with excellent food and a relaxing yet neat environment with welcoming staff and great energy. Our server was efficient and kind. The restaurant was very clean and felt safe.

Not only was the food ahhhhmazing but the wonderful servers explained everything to us and just made the experience so memorable!

I was drawn to the menu as it is has many seafood options, as well as land options. I had the Catch of the Day which was Seabass - very very good choice. We also enjoyed the coconut shrimp and tuna tartare. Every item tasted so fresh and delicious! Service was good. I would recommend the restaurant to anyone.

Every single dish was delicious. The only thing I would have preferred is better on ambiance. We sat in the smaller room past the wine seller, which was more more intimate. But the main room with the bar seemed like a sports bar. Absolutely recommend if you’re interested in trying dishes that you would normally not pick for yourself. The portions are SMALL so we went to the Mercado after for additional tacos and desserts.
