Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Playa del Carmen / Riviera Maya

Wonderful meal, gracious and helpful staff, beautiful decor! Among the great dishes we had were the salmon carpaccio, octopus, creamed spinach, Chilean sea bass (amazing) and USDA filet. Loved the cotton candy of course. They were so generous to give us complementary champagne for our anniversary. Thank you.

Amazing experience. Music was on point and service was first class. Massive thanks to Adriana & Gibran who looked after us all night. Adriana went above and beyond - she even wiped my chair so I didn’t get my clothes dirty after we stood on them for the sparkler dancing. Will definitely be back.

Francesco welcomed us, David was our server. He was an excellent host, he was very attentive, he made recommendations and tasty food pairings. The Toro old Fashioned is a highlight to kick off the dinner. The mixologist was working his craft, very fun to watch while enjoying very yummie food. Dessert was thé bomb, (literally and figuratively, sweets all over).

This restaurant is one of our favorites in Playa Del Carmen. We come every year (for about 10 year or more) and have never, ever been disappointed. We have tried almost everything on the menu, enjoying staple favorites like the crispy garlic and rosemary flatbread or new dishes like the pan cooked scallops (get some baguette bread to sop up the sauce). We have recommended it to many people over the years and not one person has ever not agreed that it was one of the best meals they have ever had! The food, service and ambiance is always wonderful and on point.

Primo is my favorite restaurant in playa. The staff is friendly and ready to deliver excellent service in a casual environment. The food is 👌
