was more than just a meal, it was an experience. Our servers Gerado ‘Gerry’ and Karen were amazing. Checking in on us consistently. We honestly felt like we were the most important people in the restaurant. The food was the best I’ve had in a very long time. The prosciutto appetizer is a must, the bass ceviche was fresh and flavorful. The king crab and rib eye cap were incredible. And kudos to the master churro chef. I’ve never had a churro that good. The experience went beyond the good and service, the DJ timed the perfect playlist from the sunset to the sparklers…yes there were sparklers set off at one point. The sax player and violinist were the life of the party. 🎉 Needless to say we went home with full bellies and smiles on our faces. Thank you to Gerry and Karen. Marco too and the amazing staff for making what we expected to be just a dinner out to something that will be one of the best memories from our trip to Cancun.

This is as good as it gets in terms of a to-die-for dining experience. Everything comes together in this gastronomic event to leave you well satisfied, delighted, and wanting to return. You are treated like a king when you’re here. My party had the soft shell crab taco as appetizer and the ribeye on salt block with mezcal as the main dish: it was divinely delicious! The cheesecake was phenomenal too. The staff that were tending to us (Eladio and Raul: thank you!) were on spot, anticipating every need and eager to please and make our experience magical. Our reservation was even accommodated last minute, to include birthday gestures for one of our party members. In summary, if you want a magically unforgettable meal, you must visit La Buena Barra—thank you La Buena Barra for providing one of the best dining experiences I’ve had: I definitely recommend you, and can’t wait to go back!

We chose this as the special spot in Cancun for our "Thanksgiving Dinner" and we were not disappointed. Great location, food, and atmosphere (including seating with sunset views over the lagoon) The one drawback is that the prices are not cheap, but I'd say it's worth it as a special meal (indeed, it seemed like many locals were here, and mostly for birthday celebrations -- for which they bring everybody at the table sparklers!) We got a variety of dishes, and most of the portions were huge! The sea bass looked great, though I didn't try it. The soft shell crab tacos were a big hit, and the crispy ribeye pieces with guacamole appetizer was my favorite. Grilled octopus also was very good. The only thing I found underwhelming was the filet tacos which, aside from coming with bone marrow, were basically the same as what you can get for much less from any taqueria.

I recently visited La Buena Barra while traveling and decided to treat myself to a birthday meal here. The service was excellent—I felt like a top priority the entire time. The staff was attentive and made my birthday celebration special. The food was pretty good overall. I particularly enjoyed the variety of sauces that were brought to the table, which added a unique touch to the meal. The steak was well-prepared and flavorful, making it a highlight of my dining experience. However, I did have a couple of minor complaints. The mashed potatoes weren't hot, and the corn wasn't good at all. Despite these small issues, the overall experience was positive, especially with the special birthday treatment. Overall, La Buena Barra provided a good dining experience, and I would recommend it for its excellent service and tasty main dishes.

This is the best overall restaurant experience we've had in Cancun. Spectacular setting with a beautiful view on the terrace, great music, excellent service, fun ambiance with some dinner entertainment and nearly perfect food. We had the pastor tower, softshell crab taco, beef tacos, escamoles, sea bass, grilled vegetable, artichoke salad, shrimp on truffle mashed potatoes. Everything was perfect...except the deserts. We had the cheesecake which tasted like a cold block of Philadelphia cream cheese, and the Pegame brownie which was a complicated mess served with vanilla ice cream that was like frozen milk. The key lime pie was not bad. I would ding them a star for the poor deserts, but everything else was perfection, so they deserve 5* and I'm sure they'll fix the deserts. Great place and now a favorite. Well done.

Hicimos una reserva para el cumpleaños de mi pareja Nico. Reservé por Open Table y especifiqué la ocasión. Al llegar nos recibió Marco, nuestro mesero principal de la noche, quien habiendo leído con atención mi comentario en la reserva saludó a Nico apenas ingresamos. Nos apartaron una mesa hermosa con la mejor vista a la laguna. Al ir al baño, Marco me recomendó que no pidamos postre ya que nos iban a traer un pastel para cantarle el feliz cumpleaños y así fue, con mucha alegría. Seguiré hablando de Marco porque realmente nos hizo la diferencia en la noche: nos describió los platos estrella del lugar junto con sus recomendaciones personales. Terminamos pidiendo el rib eye sobre bloque de sal flameado con mezcal. Fue una experiencia fantástica: el flameado lo hacen en la mesa, previamente untando la carne con una manteca de hiervas. Es un show único y el sabor es realmente exquisito. Los tragos recomendados por Marco también fueron excelentes: frescos y riquísimos. Nos obsequiaron unas copas de champagne para brindar por el festejo, junto con el pastel de cumpleaños que se veía muy colorido y realmente fue muy sabroso. El guacamole que pedimos de entrada y las papas trufadas que pedimos como guarnición también estuvieron muy ricas. Marco aquí nos salvó de pedir exceso de guarniciones. Fue un placer gigante ser atendidos con tal dedicación y amabilidad. Se notaba que genuinamente querían que tengamos un festejo repleto de goce y muy memorable ¡y así fue! Definitivamente volveremos, nos quedamos con muchas ganas de probar el trompo de pastor como entrada, la tapa de rib eye como principal y el volcán de dulce de leche de postre. A pesar de ser un restaurante caro la calidad de los alimentos y el servicio hacen que valga la pena. La terraza estaba súper bien ambientada y, al tener ventiladores en el exterior, hacen que uno pueda disfrutar de una carne estando fuera sin sufrir el calor de Cancún. Somos Argentinos, muy estrictos con la calidad de la carne, y personas muy exigentes a la hora de evaluar un restaurante. Nos gusta muchísimo cocinar por lo cual cuando salimos a comer afuera realmente esperamos que valga la pena y puedo decir que La Buena Barra definitivamente lo vale. De más aclarar que cuando regresemos al restaurante pediremos siempre que nos atienda Marco.
