The food is a bit on the pricier end for Belize-standards. The view was AMAZING!
Make sure to triple confirm your order if you have a small crowd as my waitress did re-confirm but one of our food was still missing even though it was obvious that each person ordered a food and one was missing (we didnt get appetizers or anything to start).
Three of us got the seafood soup, two got lamb chops, one got a shrimp pasta and the last got a beef hot plate. We were all satisfied with our food (it was very good but not amazingly good especially for the price) with the exception of one of the lamb chop - do not get medium well, get medium rare. The juice were also a bit disappointing as it's mostly water. The cheesecake was average. Overall, the food part of the restaurant would get a 4/5.
Other than the small hiccups with the food the place was great, the atmosphere was supreme as it was on top of a rooftop and you can see the beautiful sea from top. The decor were nice as well and the place appears to be very clean. We got a semi-private room by the corner of the restaurant. The service was ok. It was not memorable but it was not bad either.
I'd definitely recommend coming here for a date night or for special occasions if you're...
Read moreWe stayed in the hotel on our last night before we headed home to California. We had blueberry orange mocktail and some beers at the bar and enjoyed a nice friendly chat w it h the bartender, Noel. Went out for a nice walk and then came back for dinner and the sunset. Had great conversations with Noel and Haldane, learning creole and the Mayan dishes.
Had the shrimp pasta and the chicken hot plate with rice; both were good, nice flavors, big servings, and nice presentation. I had a brownie with ice cream for dessert which was not really for my taste, it was fine though and I ate maybe half. The entire crew asked if I wanted something else, they noticed I didn’t eat it all, I said it was fine, everything was good. The chef came out and asked if I wanted something else, then Noel took it off our bill. Completely attentive and genuine; they wanted to be sure we were absolutely happy. Excellent service. We encountered a lot of very kind humans here I Belize and we struck gold with the crew at Vino Tinto, all of them are just kind, happy people who either really love their jobs or are really good at showing that they do! Belize knows hospitality. We’ll make this a regular stop when we...
Read moreHighlight of Belize City! Food is insanely delicious and massive portions. Service is wonderful. The views are incredible. I popped up from the hotel before for sunrise both mornings, it is gorgeous. Returned for breakfast one day: healthy light breakfast with cold pressed juice. A large hearty supper after a full day excursion and with sunset views. The Shrimp Curry was insane and so large. My mates Buffalo Chicken wrap was the largest I've ever seen and he raved about the spices/flavours. Nice cocktail menu.
I wish I got his name, but shout out to the morning server. Gentleman, dark skinned, massive smile. Was the first one in for setting up on Sunday, March 16th. The epitome of hospitality right here- what a beautiful soul. He made my morning, even more than the perfect sunrise that we enjoyed together.
The gardens and koi fish ponds are so soothing. This...
