Esta majestuosa parrilla de llama abierta está inspirada en la vista del fuego vivo y el aroma del aire fresco del océano besado por la sal. Dedicado al delicado arte de la preparación de mariscos, toda la experiencia se basa en una enérgica cocina abierta. Cada plato incorpora un elemento de humo, carbón o fuego, algunos sutiles, otros más evidentes. Desde abundantes presentaciones de barras crudas hasta pescado entero asado a la parrilla para dos, este agradable restaurante nocturno celebra la belleza del mar y el poder de las llamas.

    If you’re looking for top-notch seafood, this restaurant is a must-visit! The lobster was incredibly fresh, cooked to perfection, and full of rich, buttery flavor. The grilled octopus was equally impressive—tender, smoky, and beautifully charred, with just the right amount of seasoning. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with attentive service that made the dining experience even more enjoyable. Jaime, was incredible!! Whether you’re a seafood enthusiast or just looking for a great meal, this place delivers. Highly recommended!

    The best part of the dining was the server, impeccable. He saved the night. The dishes were ok. Nothing to rave about, too worked in. The steak was australian wagu but felt it was more boiled then cooked, has a funky after taste. Beef tartar should not be on a deep fried hashbrown, it drowns the taste of beef and makes a supposedly fresh dish oily.

    The Waldorf Astoria in Cancun is an excellent and uniquely secluded hotel, and its signature restaurant, Malpeque, is simply fantastic! We are currently on vacation celebrating our son's birthday(8 years old) and experiencing the exceptional service offered by Waldorf. Our waiter, Jimin, was excellent at assisting us with ordering the specials, both cocktails and entrees, at Malpeque. He and his colleagues made sure everything was perfect during our dinner! The cuisine is outstanding, the ambiance is impossible to beat (alfresco with the sounds and views across the ocean), and the service was impeccable. Do not miss an opportunity to experience this jewel in Cancun!
