Olivia Organic Market — Restaurant in Tulum

We had some great food here (shrimp tacos, boneless wings, fruit & yogurt bowl), but a lot of food that was incredibly disappointing and some that didn’t match the English menu AT ALL. The passion fruit smoothie was so delicious we got that a couple times. But the pineapple one was served to us after it had clearly been sitting out for a while - room temp, kinda chunky, and melted. Soooo gross. Also, we ordered the watermelon feta salad and butternut squash pumpkin pasta for dinner. The food came out and was NOT at all as described on the English menu. The “watermelon feta salad” had zero feta (waiter said they forgot and brought a small dish after we were done), and no mango sauce or vinegarette as described. Instead it was literally 99% kale, with a few small balls of watermelon, and tiny diced up mango served with oil & balsamic on the side. One of the worst most ridiculously expensive salads ever. We didn’t finish and it was not good. Then the “butternut squash tagliatelle served over a bed of pumpkin with roasted chicken” was literally cheesy fettuccini chicken Alfredo with a handful of small balls of zucchini squash. Literally so far from butternut & pumpkin squash pasta. We brought up our concerns and were written off and ignored. NOT worth what you’ll spend. I still think we deserve a 100% refund for the...

Upon entering, one is immediately struck by the elegant decor—a feast for the eyes that promises an upscale dining experience. The cuisine, while satisfactory, does not quite reach the heights of its presentation, yet the overall ambiance retains a certain charm.

A common challenge in the hotel zone is the elusive parking spot, a predicament shared by many establishments here, and unfortunately, this venue is no exception. A peculiar practice at the entrance involves the photographing of one's ID, a procedure that can cause discomfort and raise privacy concerns for guests.

The pricing is ridiculous. The cost of a simple smoothie and omelette seemed exorbitant, more akin to what one might expect to pay at a beachfront location, despite being situated indoors. This incongruity between setting and expense is jarring.

In conclusion, while the interior design is nice, it alone cannot justify the premium prices. It is with a heavy heart that I must say, my return to this establishment is highly unlikely. The essence of value is not merely in aesthetics but in the overall experience, which in this case, did not measure up to the expectations set by the...

Olivia is part of Tulum‘s Hotelito Azul. They are an organic supermarket cum restaurant. What I loved most about Olivia‘s was about their commitment to the local community. I loved how the owner is so passionate about not only their organic commitment but also to their sustainable packaging of Their products. Olivia’s Organics products are sold in 100% recyclable packaging so you can put the container right back into the recycle stream once you’ve enjoyed what’s inside. We had breakfast, lunch and dinner many times as we were staying in the hotel. It’s a super chic and upscale restaurant with amazing vibes and good music. Staff is extremely friendly and goes beyond their ways to make you feel comfortable. You can either enjoy your meals dipping your toes in the sand or in one of their swings. I bought back some of their chocolates to Munich and they were delicious. Speaking to the owner I came to know how some of their things are directly supplied by the local community people and that to me is commendable. Food was really tasty and beautifully presented. If you are in Tulum, I highly recommend to come here and have...
