“ We had an excellent dinner at Luuma - perfect for sharing a few small plates and sharing a bottle of wine. The croquettas were a highlight and the veggie options were great! ”
“ I would give this place 10 stars ! The service, food, and presentation atmosphere are incredible! The tapas were so delicious and had unique ingredients and wow's of flavor. The server made great suggestions and was very knowledgeable about each dish. Each dish was served on beautiful platters, the music and ambiance were fabulous! The deserts were so unique in their ingredients (blue cheese, olive oil ,etc )and flavors. ”
“ Amazing service and experience. Enjoying a rich breakfast by the river nile is truly unique. Be careful, very big portions. ”
“ The food we ordered was great and the smoothies were delicious. I wish there was a little bit more in terms of options for food (we ate there for breakfast) but the atmosphere was 10/10. And I would definitely go back. Our waiter was also very friendly. ”
“ This place is tres cher but yum yum. We had the seafood board and it was spectacular. ”
“ Had an amazing dinner here! Our server Nino (don't hold me to the spelling) was very attentive. And they asked up front if we had allergies (which was good since my lady has an onion allergy). We started off with the octopus, and coconut shrimp appetizers, along with fish throat and chichiron appetizer. All were fantastic! Main course we did the whole fish, with the homemade corn tortillas (I am used to crappy US corn tortillas, and normally avoid. But they got me liking these!). Dessert was a chocolate ganache with rosemary bread chips, and a passion fruit ice cream and shortbread. Both of those were mind-blowing! I've continued to be super impressed with the culinary skills here on Holbox! ”
“ It is a great experience to have had our dinner. Very fine and great tastes. Croquettes are amazing, their pumpkin dish is also amazing. We got the sea board and each one of the pieces we tasted were amazing too. Highly recommended. If one day your path crosses Holbox, this is a must-come place for a great dinner experience. ”
“ Lovely place under trees with plenty of finger foods and other meals to share, as they explain in the concept introduction. Staff was lovely (we've been twice, with two different waitresses), food and drinks fantastic, atmosphere very good. The only thing is the meals are quite small (they qarn about it at the beginning tho), especially taking the price into consideration ”
