"Good vegetarian food. We had omelettes, nachos, veg special (zucchini and mushroom in cheese). Amazing juices and toasted bread. Service is slow and spotty - they missed special requests and were slow to correct (eg. no mushrooms) Ambiance is great. Nice view of the pool and beach."

"Amazing breakfast The hurricane and Mexico city are the best dishes I tried there Ask for spicy sauces on the side. You can eat the chipotle one almost like a soup :) and the habanero is super spicy but very nice kick and definitely made in house. The service is extraordinary."

"Food was fantastic! We, two couples, ate here 2 nights in a row, more people more tasting. The only thing we did not care for was the octopus appetizer. it seemed like it was seasoned well but was cooked too long or kept warm for too long. Top of our list: shrimp empanada, Mexican Elote (corn on the cob), fish tiritas (ceviche), Sinaloa style battered fish taco (omg!!), baked pork shank, tres leches cake, lime sorbet. But honestly, everything we tried was fantastic and recommended - tlalpeno broth (chicken clear soup), black bean gorditas, green salad, carnitas tacos, black al pastor tacos, chicken enchiladas (we were able to taste all 3 types of mole sauce, you really can't go wrong - all different and very flavorful), but wait there's more!... tampiquena beef steak. For dessert, flan, tres leches cake, and lime sorbet are at the top of the list. (We're not supposed to say but Bananas Foster is REALLY at the top - shhhh). Also tried the rice pudding, the corn cake, and churros which were meh. any of the ice creams or sorbet are deeelish. they make in house. The second night a roaming Mariachi band played a couple times, about two songs each. They are no joke, amazing musicians and singers - boisterous! It was a good festive balance as they only played 5 mins at a time. Needless to say we tipped and rolled out happy."

"This was our last dinner during our stay at Moon Palace Nizuc last April 2018. The entire dinner was from the menu. Caporales Restaurant is getting to be our favorite at Nizuc... seriously...The entire restaurant is divided in a different sections, this creates more private areas and could be more open for the bigger groups. The decor is fantastic for photography. As soon as you enter the restaurant Deymi welcomed us with a new deinks- it was awesome. There are very good people working there, you can feel a lot of energy there. We liked it very much. I love open kitchen. The heroes of the evening were : Fornellini , Cornelio waiters- fun guys, Chef Israel- the conductor in the kitchen- big talent, Moniquita Damian very energetic woman and of course Angelica the manager of the Caporales- special lady in my heart also wanted to thank executive chef Señor Adjid Velsco for his creative mind. We had following dishes: battered octopus, salmon ceviche , seafood pazole w mezcal and warm salt with a corn fride tortilla with onions, coriander, lemon and guacamole, harbour’s fish- grilled wahoo fillet- amazing, duck with coloradito mole- best we ever had and a cochinite pibil- tradition Yucatan pork. Dessert was created and performed, literally, by Cornelio righ at front of us- ask for this dessert -hot strawberries on the top of the vanilla ice cream mixed with the red wine, brandy and cassis licor- it was out of this world...delicioso...forget about your diet - you are on vacation . We are so blessed with your friendship mi amigas. Thank You for giving us some space and privacy during our dinner. P.S. por favor, recuerda que mis publicaciones son sobre ti y no sobre nosotros. Este es mi reconocimiento de su arduo trabajo, gracias de nuevo. Thank you. Dziekuje."
