La Sirena
La Sirena is a great place for lunch or dinner and conveniently located on Calle 16 between 1st and 5th Ave. at Porto Playa Condo Hotel Building. They have great, inexpensive food and it is so conveniently located. They also provide pool service and room service for Porto Playa Condo Hotel.
Da Gigi on 5th and Calle 32
Owner and operator Gigi and his master chefs have been serving up delicious Italian food and pizzas for over a decade. They make a point to personally check on diners and socialize with them, making the dining experience more personalized. It has become the place to see and be seen as many local politicians and celebrities dine here as well. The 5th Avenue location has both outdoor and indoor dining options. If you choose outdoors make sure to pay a visit inside to see the amazing restaurant decor and layout personally designed by GiGi. Read the Trip Advisor reviews.

Imprevist Restaurant Review
Playa del Carmen has many great restaurants, but last night we went to Imprevist and were blown away by the gourmet quality, service, and ambiance Imprevist offers. We’d gone for breakfast when we were here in September, but wanted to try dinner because we saw so many people dining there.

Oh LaLa is one of the best restaurants in Playa del Carmen
We often get asked for restaurant recommendations in Playa del Carmen. My husband, Terry likes to eat out and we go to a different restaurant every night while we are there. Oh LaLa is one of our top 3 recommendations.
Il Pescatore, One of the Best Restaurants in Playa!
It was our first time, but Ed Vidgen, who lives in Playa (our hero because he lives here) goes often to Il Pescatore Ristorante. It was fabulous! Although we eat at many places on 5th Ave., we love getting off the 5th for quainter, more charming restaurants and this is not at the top of my list.
Best new restaurant in Playa del Carmen: Al Volo
Last night we went to Al Volo, an Italian place on Calle 34 next to Aguachiles (a great fish taco’s restaurant). The owner and cook is Gianpaolo Ferrera, one of the chefs from Asi Beach Club. It was wonderful!!! It’s a small and casual space, so don’t expect a big restaurant or lots of frills. It’s not that kind of place, but it’s the kind of place we will go back to every time we are in Playa!
Casa Mediterranea: Most Romantic Restaurant in Playa del Carmen
The most romantic restaurant in Playa del Carmen would have to be Casa Mediterranea. Tucked away on a quiet little courtyard off Quinta Avenida, this impressive, small, restaurant is the most romatic restaurant in Playa del Carmen and offers, excellent home-made Italian food. Maurizio and Maria, the owners, are there to greet their guests and are true Italian chefs.
