Nikkori Playa del Carmen — Restaurant in Playa del Carmen

I've been here a few times and its pretty good in the past but not this time.

The tuna was obviously frozen at one time, had horrible color, definitely not fresh by any stretch. The other pieces like roe were okay. The rolls were made poorly rolled, sloppy work. The only good dish was the scallops, we all liked them.

Also i got the impression tourists arent really liked or appreciated. Unless the service is iffy for everyone. Also double check your bill for a tax called ISA. They said it was included in the prices in the menu but they tried adding it on our bill at the end. Dont...
