Lizo — Restaurant in Quintana Roo

We had dinner at Lizo, the Mexican restaurant at Finest Playa Mujeres, and overall it was a pleasant experience. The service was warm and attentive, and most of the food was flavorful and nicely presented.

For our son, we ordered the chicken alphabet soup, but it was far too salty and had to be returned. Thankfully, the kids’ quesadilla and fries were excellent — he really enjoyed that meal. We also ordered the chicken mole tacos, which were delicious and perfectly seasoned. The chicken mole entrée had good flavor as well, though it came with some leftover herb stems that could have been cleaned off. The fish entrée was tasty but had a few scales remaining, which was disappointing.

Dessert was a highlight — the churros were light and crispy, and the tres leches cake was soft, creamy, and perfectly sweet. Our son loved it.

Overall, Lizo offers great flavors and welcoming service, but could benefit from a bit more attention to preparation details to make the dining...

Gabriel was an amazing server! He recommended a Mexican Cabernet Sauvignon that was delicious for our meal—fruit forward, mint, and light tannins.

The meal was amazing! This is the high end Mexican food we don't get at home. You can't go wrong.
