I write reviews of restaurants and buffets in Las Vegas for a living, so I'm quite picky with my meals. Playa was a vacation for me and I very rarely, if ever, write about any food outside Vegas, until today.
There are a lot of Italian restaurants in Playa del Carmen. Mainly because there are a lot of Italian expats that moved here. However, few if any are worth the time or money. This however, is the exception.
All I'm going to say is - This is the best Italian food in Playa del Carmen period. No exceptions. Nothing else even comes close.
I should clarify, I mean pasta, not pizza. For pizza, the bast place is a couple blocks away on calle 26. But for pasta, this is the place. Fresh, plentiful, flavorful, and affordable. The perfect combination.
For pizza though, go to the place on calle 26 between 5th and 10th next to the Bio-organico. That is the best pizza.
