    Fantastic 9 course meal, wine pairings were spot on. Compared to other Michelin starred restaurants it was easy to get reservations and a great chance to experience this level of dining. Great food and experience

    En general la experiencia fue muy buena y agradable, la atención del mesero Félix fue genial. El motivo que di 4 estrellas es porque no pude evitar de comprarlo a otros restaurantes que visité en Europa con estrella Michelin y por dos platillos que por mi gusto personal eliminaría del menú. El Pato no es un platillo que agrada el paladar de la mayoría de las personas, muy fuerte. También eliminaría el postre de helado de limón, muy ácido, demasiado. No sé si siempre es así. El Filet Mignon era el platillo que más esperaba y no vino como lo pedí, me decepcionó un poco. Gracias por todo, la atención si fue excelente, todos muy amables.

    I recently had the pleasure of dining once more this time with family at this exceptional fine dining restaurant, where the experience was nothing short of thrilling. The highlight of the evening was the impeccable service, led by the amazing sommeliers/waiters, Rolando and Ricardo. Both of them were incredibly knowledgeable, guiding us through each dish with detailed insights into the ingredients, preparation, and, most importantly, the wine pairings. The tasting journey from having escamoles - “insect caviar”, a delicacy that was as exotic as it was delightful. All dishes were expertly prepared and complemented perfectly by carefully selected wine all from Mexico, showcasing the country's emerging wine scene. The entire team was courteous and attentive, ensuring every moment of the evening was flawless. Truly one of the best dining experiences—an extraordinary blend of food, drink, and hospitality! Há, meaning water in Maya was the perfect place to celebrate life-celebración de vida. Muchas gracias!

    Amazing food, exquisite service, breathtaking venue. Everything you would expect from a Michelin starred restaurant and more. The presentations of the various offerings were incredible. From the opening cocktail, to the final course, it was everything we had hoped for. We have eaten in many Michelin starred restaurants around the world, and this did not disappoint. Hats off to chef Gaytan, well done!
