I have been to this resort back in 2018, 2020 and 2021 but have yet to sit here at Zama restaurant, but when we're at the pool our lunches and drinks is are always from here.
I'm an honest reviewer and the water down drinks are not pleasant when you want those good drinks. The food is pretty good and they give you some choices that are worth trying out. The service is not the best with some of the other restaurants being a better choice but it's more on the good side then bad side, if you know what I mean. I can deal with it but it could use a little improvement. That's why I give them a 4 star rating out of 5. If drinks improve and they added more choices, I can change my rating to 5 star in the future hopefully.
The Mexican food is good here, one of our favorite is the beer batter fish tacos and beef quesadillas. The side topping add more flavor to your meal dishes. I've also come to take notice that the pool menu and pictures that others have posted about this restaurant are different. That means you get more choices if you enter and take a seat there for lunch and dinner. So moving forward I do need to take the time to visit them maybe next time.
Service from the pool waiters are 5 star to me, I can't...
Read moreAte here twice so far while staying at Villa del Palmar. Lunch was okay, more of a 3.5 star. Dinner was great! More of a 4.5 star.
The service is phenomenal. Attentive, fast, friendly.
The food ranges from okay to exceptional.
Our favorite dishes were the civeches, octopus dinner, scallops dinner, pork shank and lamb shank dinners.
Our least favorites were the duck enchiladas (dry), and the lobster tail (over seasoned, so salty!). The lobster tail was disappointing since it's also a premium food not covered by all inclusive. Well cooked just way too much seasoning. The tostadas were good but hard for sharing, large size.
All of the desserts were okay or good, nothing very great or phenomenal. The lemon mousse was more like a gel. The chocolate creme brulee was more like a firm mousse. The flan was just okay. Churros were the best!
Overall we liked this place for dinner way better but the food could be a bit more adventurous...
Read moreThis place is the SPOT! I had such fast, good service. The food is amazing, with the alcohol drinks being outstanding too! It was very affordable for being on the resort. 70$ feeds 2 people with 2 alcohol drinks and 2 main entrees. Be sure to tip well! We were right under some shaded umbrellas so we all ate very comfortably under the hot sun! I wish there was a way to be able to pay at the table and not have to wait for them to run your cards in the hut. Our server was checking on us a lot and was very knowledgeable about the food items. I recommend this place before and after a swim session. Very well worth your money. Thanks for a great meal! We are here 2...
