Amazing as always! This is a must when in Cancun! Our group dined there twice! I highly recommend the Wagyu Meatballs for an appetizer. The Tableside Fettuccine Alfredo is amazing, I recommend adding their crispy chicken breast to it. The gnocchi ragu is also a must. Make your reservation you won't be disappointed.

Cancún

About the restaurant

Rosa Negra Cancún celebrates Latin American cooking on the edge of Nichupté Lagoon in the Hotel Zone. The menu moves from tacos and tostadas to ceviches, tiraditos, seafood and charcoal-grilled cuts, paired with Latin-inspired cocktails. Multi-level wooden decks face the sunset; later, the evening builds with a DJ, live bongos and fire moments. Book it for an energetic dinner, a birthday, a group gathering or a special occasion where food and celebration share the spotlight.

We celebrated my birthday with 2 other couples and we all highly recommend Harry's in Playa del Carmen. We live in Puerto Morelos and will bring all of our visitors to Harry's in the future. We ate at a Michelin star restaurant the night before and Harry's was so much better. The staff was spectacular; the food was delicious and we loved every aspect of our experience!
