Agave Azul — Restaurant in Quintana Roo

The setting is casual and with good taste, specially in the terrace were distinctive furnishings are the norm. We visited on August 14, 2020.

Service is impecable, as you normally find throughout Mexico. The waiters know the menu and they can provide knowledgeable comments and suggestions.

Prices are on the high-end, but that is to be expected of the place (the restaurant is inside the Mayakoba complex in the Riviera Maya). For a dinner for three persons we paid Us$225, including some drinks and dessert.

My only complaint is about one dish we asked but that was not good at all. This was the Tataki de Atún. Flavor for the tuna was lacking and we could not finish the dish at all. In addition, we asked for the chicken satay and the accompanying sauces were flavorless.

We had the soft shelled crab and the ribeye. Each of these were a big meal in themselves. The ribeye was sliced seasoned and in a light juice or sauce. Really a great steak. Like you’d get at a great Japanese restaurant. Loved it all and...

WONDERFUL STAFF 👌 but, as it turns out, this place clearly is taking advantage that people pay upwards of $1,400/ night USD to stay at the Rosewood. Rock shrimp and sushi roll with eel was about $75 USD w/o tip. Dry sushi rice, solid fried shrimp, but not worth $32 lol.

Decor was similar to a Red Robin or Olive Garden from 10 years ago, maximum chewgy. This is for people who haven’t had good food and are enamored by the...
