They have great seafood dishes for lunch and dinner which we found was good but not exceptional for the price. Location is fabulous. Can't be better.
Service on the other hand was disappointing especially during breakfast time. Staff were not motivated to work, chatting away in a corner and came to our table after 10 minutes. There were 2 or 3 staff on hand yet they were not proactive or willing in serving or bringing out the food. Only one staff was working and took awhile to get the order done. If you are in a hurry, please be aware and allow more time.
There were a few experienced staff who attended to us during the latter parts of the day/night there during our stay and they were helpful and friendly. So you need to try your luck on the day.
Seems like no manager to monitor or direct staff all day and the level of service with the younger staff is definitely not the usual Hotel standard yet no one at hotel is doing anything to change it. Very disappointing to see as the hotel does well in other areas yet the service experience at restaurant pulls down the overall perception of the hotel.

Sat down for the "all you can eat" brunch, 500pso. 200 pesos to add unlimited national drinks, we did not indulge. They brought us 5 pancakes, 2 small bowls of fruit, and 2 yogurt. Then for the second course they brought 1cm slice of baked acorn squash and 3 puck tacos. Why do you bring 3 tiny tacos for 4 people? There was this delicious beet and grapefruit salad too, 5oz (for 4 people). We asked for more and they said we were not allowed to have more because we asked for another order of pancakes and fruit. How unsatisfying, and rude.

Love the atmosphere, and vibe of this restaurant. So relaxing and a beautiful ocean view. If you want a quiet, classy place to eat this place is definitely the one. A hidden gem. Would recommend the C-Grill Omelette, or Benedictinos, and the fruit berry bowl. Also really appreciated the staff and their effort to communicate in English.

Do Not Eat Here. Be prepared, they bill in USD and offer a ridiculously poor exchange rate. I appreciate their effort communicating in English, but shortly after being greeted, we were surprised to find that despite being visibly vacant the servers were not attentive, the only pleasant person we dealt with was the hostess. We asked for milk several times for coffee and the Benedictinos (Egg Benedict) is inedible, the sauce is rancid, and tasted like spoiled leftovers. Beware, when we complained their excuse was the “missing ingredients” were blended into the hollandaise sauce. I suggest eat else where, and enjoy the sun away from this pitiful excuse of a restaurant. Way over priced and Overrated.

Quite pricey, but comfy spot to set up for the day. You can use the lounge chairs/cushions if you buy food/drinks with no minimum spend.

The service was fine and the location on the beach is nice but the calamari and fish tacos were absolutely terrible. Some pieces of the calamari tasted edible...not good, but not bad. But some of them tasted awful, like the calamari inside the breading was spoiled. The breading was much too thick and very greasy but it was still the best part of the dish. The fish tacos weren't as bad but the fish wasn't tasty. Don't eat here. 7 hours later I still have the taste of spoiled calamari in my mouth despite repeatedly brushing my teeth. I'm just hoping I don't end up getting sick.

I regret not reading the Google Reviews before wasting an afternoon trying to get the taste of their horrible food out of my mouth. The servers were not attentive at all and the majority actively ignored me after requesting for more information about their menu. This place is mismanaged and over priced. Despite being in an ideal location, I feel they are falsely representing the food and hospitality industry, which for the most I have enjoyed in Playa. They are disrespecting the tourists and locals by charging in USD $$ at poor exchange rates, at the expense of turning a profit. Shame on you.

The food was good, service was not so good, they also were not discreet when I tried to pick up the tab for our table, everything we ate was pretty good except for their specialty omelette, It was extremely dry not what we expected, we loved the pancakes they were super fluffy, and the bacon was perfectly crispy. The view was amazing, we were literally on the beach which was exactly what we were in search of for our last breakfast in Playa. The prices were pretty good. It’s a place where you can also go swimming while you eat, you can use the beach and they have a pool right there. The bathrooms are super clean. For parking you have to find street parking or one of the near by garages, their is no valley parking or parking at the restaurant which is in a dead end street connected to the hotel. I would go again. Really good family vibe restaurant.

Breakfast is lovely here. I’ve tried around 5 meals and they’re all delicious!
The friendly & attentive waiters, waves lapping and the food make it all so perfect.
