We stayed at Shibari for our first time in late April 2024 and were extremely impressed with the resortand Atta. Atta and the hotel are fairly new, but you would not know it when dining there. Dinner is served in the same location as where breakfast is served, and it’s a very bright and open restaurant where you can feel the ocean breeze and have a view of the beautiful Tuuch cenote. Breakfast is included in your stay, but dinner is à la carte. We decided to eat at Atta for our first night in Tulum because we traveled from South America earlier that day and were very tired upon arriving at the hotel. We were both so happy that we chose Atta because it truly was delicious. The pricing is a bit expensive because it’s in the tourist zone of Tulum but still less than I would spend back home in Los Angeles. Our server was extremely polite and food items came out very quickly.
I started off with the meal with the Ceviche Verde and truly loved it. I have avocado back home in LA, but this avocado was exceptionally tasty and so was the fish. Every part of it was amazing and I actually came from Peru where ceviche was invented prior to this and I liked this Mexican version even more than what I had in Peru. For my entrée, I chose the Filete de Pescado a la Talla and also loved it. The seasoning on the fish is what made it for me. We also ordered some Guacamole for the table and it is a bit different than the American version in that it is basically just avocado, no tomatoes or cilantro, but that is the best part of it anyway, and we truly loved and ate every every bit of it.
I would recommend to anyone staying at Shibari or to anyone visiting Tulum because it really is that delicious. I plan to be back next time I am...
Read moreWe cannot say enough wonderful things about Atta and Shibari! This place is by far our favorite spot in Tulum! The staff, atmosphere, food, drinks and Cenote were so tranquil and relaxing! We spent one day there on a day pass and liked it so much, we canceled our beach plans and went back to Atta/Shibari again the next day. We rented a balinessa and had our own little private spot. Very romantic! Augustine, the restaurant manager made sure his staff was on top of all of our needs. They even made me a special papaya juice that is not on the menu! We would like to give a special thanks to Ivan, Oscar, Andres, Speedy Gonzales Alan and Gustavo! We felt like we made true friends. There are others whose names we cannot recall. To the general manager, Mr. Soto, please give our best regards to your entire team! We will come back and stay at this property next time and will most likely never stay anywhere...
Read moreAtta is a restaurant in the backyard of the Shibari hotel. It has an extremely beautiful and aesthetic area with a cenote in the middle. It's super quiet, compared to other places in the area, which we appreciate. The service is very attentive and fast. We tried the lobster noquis (highly recommended), fried shrimps, crab tacos, Peruvian ceviche, and guava cheesecake for dessert. The only thing that disappointed was the dessert as it was lacking something, probably a maracuya or guava topping. The crab tacos were ok but not mindblowing as the noquis were. The ceviche is also a good option. Prices are high but worth it due to the ambiance. If using the GPS to get here, put the hotel address instead of the restaurant since the GPS will tell you to come through Kukulkan Ave and that back entrance is closed...
