    The drinks here are incredible. Some of the best mezcal and tequila cocktails I've ever had. Love the vibe and there's a dance party on Friday nights too.

    Sophisticated spot. Jungle Fever cocktail w/cilantro & chilli is great. They spray a lot of anti-bug stuff around which is good for this side of the road. Food generally good but at New York prices.

    This place is perfect in every way. The food is undescribably good, the service amazing, the atmosphere top noch. Drinks are awesome. A little pricy yes, but it is really worth it!

    I was there with my GF. Really nice place. Couldn't make it to the dinner but the cocktails were really nice. Also the design is great.

    The wood-roasted cauliflower with mint cilantro chutney, pickled beets with lime yogurt, jicama, and cardamom, and homemade hummus are not to be missed, but the stars of the show are the cocktails. Read more

    Chandeliers hanging from trees, a DJ spinning in the middle of the restaurant, tasty cocktails, and good food. Definitely go for the spicy shrimp tacos

    GREAT with food allergies** Best cocktails in Tulum- get the Jungle Fever or Kisses in the Cab. Food wise- get an order of the brisket tacos & tuna tartare.

    As simple as it sounds, the grilled asparagus and chicken were outstanding. Chicken was great and perfect for splitting between 2.

    Beautiful setup and delicious mezcal cocktails. Ideal for a pre dinner drink.

    The Chile Relleno is uniquely fantastic without being greasy. One entree and one or two tapas are enough for two people for dinner for sure.

    The cocktails, food, service and ambience were great. If I could only pick one place for dinner in Tulum, this would be it.

    Service was good, ambiente was outstanding, food was sadly very average and I expected more for this kind of money. It looked nice but there was no taste in the food. It tasted like nothing to me.

    Order the ceviche app and the fish tacos! Accompany with a glass or Sauvignon blanc.

    Nice decorated, but average food (and small portions), and high prices. Menu said that the optional 15% tip as included in the prices, but on the bill they suggested another 15% tip. Not too friendly

    Loud and sceney, but the food is great. For some reason a lot of people bring their kids here to smoke in front of them...

    The potential to be one of the best restos in Tulum w/ambitious menu & great cocktails but has a long long way to go on service: exchange rate is 25% overpriced, food may be undercooked/cold, etc

    Nice setting but the food just does the job. Wine served too warm. Nothing like Be Tulum.

    I had one of the worst dining experience in this place. We had to wait one hour and a half to get our food and when it came it was lukewarm and mediocre. The staff was unfriendly and very unhelpful

    Overrated, overpriced, pretentious. Skip the queue and dinner. Instead grab a drink if you must then head to a locally run and operated establishment.
