“ Lovely Restaurant! Very cosy atmosphere and interior. If it is the beach house, or the Room close to the street. Tapas were very good, friendly service. ”
“ Lovely place. We stayed next door two weeks ago at La Conchita. I would suggest breakfast there every day as the hut has great coffee and food, overlooks the sea. Nice staff and great service. Loved the coffee served in the Mexican style mugs. Nice touch.Thank you! ”
“ This place was a surprise hit for us in Tulum. We went here on a whim, intrigued by the menu. The dining area is situated near the beach, in the back of the adjoining hotel. The ambiance was amazing and beautiful. But the food was the true star. In fact, it was so good we ate here 3 times during our 5 day stay in Tulum. If you're hesitant to eat Italian food in Mexico, don't be. It was phenomenal. The 'Maltagliati con pulpo' and 'Fettuccine a la Pescatora' were delicious. The pasta was handmade, and you can't go wrong with handmade pasta. The paella, surprisingly, was not our favorite thing. It was just ok, nothing special. The tapas were noteworthy, especially the 'pulpo y papas', and the 'tartare de salmon'. Mivida is a treasure in Tulum. Unfortunately it never seemed busy the three times we were there, and that is a true shame. More people should know about this place. We can't wait to come back here some day! ”
“ This place is a hidden gem. We went to eat dinner at Mivida two nights bc the food was so delicious. I got the zucchini shrimp fettuccine both times I loved it so much! The grilled octopus was also very good. The owner if I recall is from Italy and he was so nice. Highly recommend the food here! The place is a cute boutique on the beach hotel and view is amazing. I'm so glad I stumbled upon this place. I 100% would come back here for the food next trip back to Tulum. ”
“ Good tacos, good pizza. Their 4 cheese pizza is made with blue cheese - which is ... different. If you like blue cheese - you will love this pizza. Otherwise what you are really here for is the view. ”
“ this place is perfect!! friendly staff, no hidden costs , told up front it was 500 pesos each minimum spend for use of the beach club as long as we wanted. This was not hard to do after ordering a couple drinks and some lunch (which was delicious!) cheaper than other beach clubs in the area and had a really chilled vibe with beds and hammocks to lounge on, would 100% recommend! ”
“ Me and my friend had a light lunch (fish tacos) and a cocktail each by the beach. Reasonably priced for TuLum! ”
“ One of the better beach day experiences you will have. The service was on point, the servers were absolutely awesome. The view was top notch. Definitely the spot to go if you didn’t book into a beach front hotel. Go early and rent a cabana for the day, you will not regret it. ”
