49 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Playa Del Carmen

“Exquisite breakfast.

The service time is a little long, but the food is worth it.

Before your meal they give you a complimentary yogurt with fruit of the day.

The Croissants were very delicious and fresh.

The dishes are on point and the accompanying bread is delicious.

If you love sweet breakfasts, don't miss the French toast.

If you are looking for something a little more filling, the picaña dish is excellent.

But if you want to stick with more Mexican flavors, try "la cazuela" it is spectacular.

In my opinion the coffee is quite roasted and bitter even though I ordered a latte, but nothing that a little bit of chewed sugar couldn't fix (I'm not one to put sugar in coffee, but I felt this one deserved it)

Comfortable and welcoming environment.

The waiters make you feel at home, Adria, how cool! Thanks for your attention.

By the way, during breakfast hours they don't handle seafood but in the afternoon they do, so I reported the food allergy and left the place without any problems. Good kitchen management.

I will surely return.“

“When I tell you the service was stellar, the food is delectable, the atmosphere is like a movie, they’re so accommodating, and the bathrooms are so clean that you feel safe there. Like if something fell on the floor, it would be just fine.“

“Phenomenal experience here. Drinks and food that will leave you feeling like you've made contact with a completely next level chef and mixologist but at incredibly reasonable prices. I had the pleasure of being served by the owner himself. Torn between menu items, I was eager to pick his brain on recommendations and he was patient and kind enough to give me feedback that I graciously accepted. I ordered the Mayan Ceviche with a custom alteration on one of the listed cocktails, each of which were exceptional. Great service, wonderful aesthetic inside.. Planning to go again and sample much more on the menu, I don't think you could go wrong with anything, and I cannot possibly recommend this location more highly.“

“I ordered the seafood pasta and the presentation of it was so cool with the crab shell on top. Me and my friends took lots of pictures. Service was prompt and very well timed. They also had a stand for your purse which is always appreciated as a woman.“

“Coffee shops in PDC don’t open early enough but Ah Cacao was open. They’re much richer tasting than Starbucks. Their chocolate products are delicately delicious. The cost is on par with Starbucks but worth every cent to a weary traveller. We went back each morning and once in the afternoon for the service, coffee choices and atmosphere.“

“With Bio-Natural Organic in the name, these guys did not disappoint. Waitress made a valiant effort with her English, combined with my Spanish, we communicated well in Spanglish. Their menu has almost a hundred smoothie n juice options. Beyond the the restaurant juice bar was a mini-health food natural store with coolers of food and drink, including healthy ice cream. Whether you're paleo, vegan, vegetarian, dairy or gluten-free you'll find something to eat.“

“This was our second time at Oh La La! Once again we were amazed by the phenomenal quality of food and service. Our server Alex was highly knowledgeable and friendly, and made our dinner a wonderful experience. I said it in my review from last year, this restaurant is by far the classiest, best curated, and delicious restaurant in not only Playa del Carmen but the entire Quintana Roo region. A must go to in PDC, 10/10 ⭐️“

“Amazing food!! Highly recommend the fajitas! Good flavor & fresh food! The experience was amazing! A guy came up and told us about a fishing experience while we were eating lunch, which we went on, the restaurant cooked the fish we caught for dinner, but we had to pay extra to eat it. Highly recommend best fish I’ve ever had, same with the fajitas! The drinks went the best, but everything else was amazing! (I don’t recommend the popcorn shrimp appetizer, it was a little hard & chewy). Strawberry margarita was one of the worst.

The guys cutting the fish, came & gave us a fresh plate of ceviche while we were eating lunch for the fish they just caught too! Highly recommend place!“

“Perfect places to try different types of beers, both national and international. Sometimes they have good priced beer on tap that isn't on the menu. So I recommend asking to try, they usually put three types of beers on tap. The place is perfect to chat with friends or on a date. You can even buy merchandise from that place such as beer glasses from international brands. I have already bought a pair and they have excellent quality. I also recommend ordering the cheese board, it will not disappoint you and it is enough to share for three people. The place is outdoors, so it is likely that in some seasons it will touch when there are mosquitoes, however the staff of the place usually share repellent. In any case, I recommend bringing your own and depending on the time of year it can be very hot since the place does not have air conditioning, but they have fans with good power, they play good music and it is pet friendly.“

“I am glad I was able to check out one of PDC vegan restaurants. @falafelnessya , located 2 blocks away from the 5th Ave. meet s nice young German vegan couple dinning there , 15 years vegans. By the look of their tan seemed to be there a while. Asked them, if you only had one night in PDC. Which restaurant would you absolutely hit? They said Nessya! I talked to the cook, he said the owner is French. Interesting. The whole restaurant is falafel based. Hence the name. They have pitas. Plates. Hummus. And even a falafel burger. The pita sandwich and the hummus was so good! They also have Mexican aguas de sabores or sweet waters, I got the tamarind flavor. Definitely a recommended spot of a delicious lunch“

“The best service of all, they are a great team, especially Mr. Sergio, they do everything they want in the world and you can tell they love their work. Very happy, everything is delicious, thank you ?we will be back

Kid-friendliness: They very kindly lent us special glasses and plates for babies and children ? very attentive to everyone's needs“

“Excellent quality of food, the best breakfast in Playa, delicious and fresh drinks to start the morning (love coffee and fresh juice), delicious dishes, fresh and freshly baked breads. I cannot fail to highlight the wonderful service of Hugo and his team, Uriel excellent attention too…. The dishes are delicious, with typical Italian flavors, the atmosphere is fresh and pleasant, perfect location to be on Fifth Avenue, not to be missed!!!“

“The cakes are delicious and at a good price, the water is super delicious and very good service, I love going there because the plaza is very relaxed and the waitress has good service.

Parking: large parking lot, it is inside a small square“

“Great food and impeccable service in this quiet, relaxed corner away from the hubbub of Avenida Juarez.
The cochinita pibil is excellent, the barbecue tuna is exquisite, and the cocktails are also excellent.
Highly recommended“

“We ordered the rib portion for two people. The meat was very tender, crispy and there was just enough quantity for the two of us. We were there for the second time and it was again very tasty. In addition, the margarita was very well mixed. We'd love to come back :)“

“This place is one of the best selections in Playa del Carmen.

The place has a lot of variety in food and cocktails, which are very different from each other. They are all worth it for their particular style.

It has options for all types of audiences and very good live music.

A place worth going to again and again to be able to taste everything they offer.“

“The chocolate frappes are just must-try drinks here, if you like chocolate even a bit.😄if you like the spicey one, choose the maya chocolate…we choose the frappe version and it was amazing! you can have it without any milk or with plantmilks as well. Get a delicious vegan mocha cake as well to reach chocolate heaven.😄“

“This place is so unique, it's in the middle of nature and is such a great location for a meal.Get there early as it gets busy and the lineup is pretty long.

The food was actually very fresh and tasted amazing, there's so many options and it caters to most dietary preferences. Service was also very speedy and kind

I'll definitely be coming back!

Vegetarian options: Yes

Dietary restrictions: Many options“

“We were ten people and of the ten most loved their food. Seven of us had the September special, Chile en Nogadas and they were excellant! I loved the decoration and the fact that the chile was very fresh. It could have had a tad more stuffing but great all the same. One friend had the octopus and was not thrilled but definitely enjoyed it. Another had the carne asada tacos. The ambiance and service was very nice. Good quality/ambiance/ price. Gracias“

“Very nice place, ordinary service, good tasting food without exaggeration, packages at a good price...
I ordered well-cooked eggs and they were served medium rare.

The second (and last) visit was horrible, dirty table, no fan, terrible chilakiles (attached photo)“

“I had heard mixed reviews, so we had to go. We arrived without a reservation on Saturday, but they gave us a table quickly, the place was almost full. The waiter was very attentive. I ordered a medium-rare entrail with rustic potatoes, it was very juicy and delicious. My companion ordered a simple chicken Milanese with French fries, a good portion. The specialty there is grilled dishes and my recommendation is to order them medium-rare so that they do not lose their flavor or juices. Very good place to celebrate a special occasion.“

“Vibe was good. This street has Tulum vibes. Did a flight of beer that was good. The prices on the physical menu did have different prices from the online menu which was a little weird but prices weren't bad. The shrimp and marlin tacos were delicious.“

“From the first day I met Po Thai I loved it, I have been returning frequently for 2 years and I always leave satisfied with the service, the food, the presentation of the dishes and the speed. Recommended if you want to change a little gastronomy“

“The welcome and service from the waiter Adan was excellent, the food incredible, the lobster was cooked just right and the pasta was excellent, we were treated to an excellent tuna starter which was a gift from the house as well as the digestive at home. end everything was perfect I recommend this place without hesitation even if the price is a little high but you have to take into account that we are in a tourist area so we can understand“

“Portions are tiny but it’s high quality premium icecream. Flavors use real coconut, pistachio, etc. expensive by Mexican standards. Same price as US and Canada. Really good location right by one of the most lively parts of town so you can enjoy some delicious icecream while soaking it in. Service is average at best, cold, not very friendly.“

“Always return to this place when I’m in playa del Carmen the food is amazing! Take a little bit long to make but that’s because the food is made with love. Always order chocolate peanut butter bowl and the pancakes crapes . Also if I feel little unwell I always ordered the immune shots. Which picked me up. Atmosphere it’s a very green earthy vibe to it. Always bring my friends here and they love it too.

Vegetarian options: They have a lot vegan options . Majority is vegan.“

“This was one of my go-to work spots when I lived in Playa. I got to visit recently and it still as I remember. Good cofee. The chai tea latte is great. Add a shot for a caffeine boost. Also the burger here is pretty darn good as well.

Great place to work, relax, having a meeting, or hang out with friends.“

“If the onions wouldn’t trigger my sinus headaches I would eat them too ! This place has some really refreshing and tastey food; it’s where you can get a great filling, healthy food without feeling heavy and bloated the rest of a extremely hot day. Don’t let the menu intimidate you; it’s pretty straight forward when you get a chance to sit down and look through it. I had the avocado toast with poached eggs.“

“Crunchy wings! The wings and potatoes were very delicious and everything was fresh. Variety of sauces, we tried Buffalo, BBQ Bourbon, Garlic Parm and a spicy sauce with takis crunch on top ?️ ?️?️
The service was excellent, thank you for being so attentive and explaining each sauce and its flavor to us!!

Kid-friendliness: My son tried Papas Company with BBQ boneless wings on top!“

“I loved the breakfast, the place is beautiful, you can enjoy the landscape of 5th Av and the quiet atmosphere of this place, breakfast packages from $160.00 pesos that include fruit, coffee, sweet bread and beans, the attention of the waiters was excellent, very attentive and helpful, of course I recommend it!!“

“My husband and I were looking for good waffles - not the thin ones- nice thick Belgium style. The ones here are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Because they are fermented, they have a very unique taste- absolutely wonderful!! My husband had his with Greek yogurt and fruit. I had eggs served perfectly. They had freshest fruit we have had since we got to Mexico, delicious Greek yogurt with just a touch of honey. The best part… our waiter- Angel. He was so appropriately named! He greeted us with the best smile and the most positive attitude. Can’t wait to come back!!“

“Strongly recommended. The owner is very kind and available to explain the dishes with advice and directions to enjoy the best dishes of the region. The service is good and the price is also very competitive compared to other places in the city.“

“Came across this place while walking the downtown shopping Quinta Avenida. It was a few steps down the side and was a bit more calm than the Señor Frogs etc.
Abrhm was very attentive with recommendations, ensured our table didn’t wobble, wiped extra water off the table while carrying drinks on his head….sometimes two!
It was a nice respite after a long day of vendors vying for your attention. Would recommend.“

“Food: The food is very delicious, the burgers I've tried are simply delicious and the fries don't even say ?.

Service: We were served by the waiter Fabian, really attentive and jovial, very friendly at all times.

Atmosphere: The place is nice and air-conditioned. It's nice to be there.

We will definitely come again.

***Plus: There was a kitten outside and the staff gave it some food, those things give me confidence “

“The eggs were exceptional.. pre-seasoned very good.. my waffle was delicious with different fruits and real maple syrup ?... language barrier but that's on me .. little hard to find, but worth the search ?.. more a breakfest, brunch place.“

“The food and service were 10. We ordered an octopus cocktail and it was one of the best I have eaten in Playa, whiting and a mixed ceviche.It needs more atmosphere and with the heat it has been lately they need some large fans to cool it down a bit.“

“Though the restaurant has a modest look (no frills, no glamour) the food was excellent. We went there as a family and ended up returning the day after seeking the fabulous tacos and parillada. Where it not for the prices (a bit high for such establishment) and the tables/chairs which were a bit disheveled, I’d easily have given it a 5-star. The welcoming hostess/waitress was really gracious, funny and articulate. One thing to keep in mind is the fact that next-door they are restaurants with extremely loud music. But this is a Playa Del Carmen, after all, isn’t it?“

“This place is a hidden gem! We have been living here for almost 9 months and just found this great place!

We loved every thing about it! The food was excellent… I got the combo waffles and a soy latte and it was wonderful! Chloe and Daniel were a wonderful support for us. We will definitely be back!“

“We were passing by 10ma in search of a place to eat and we ran into King David, which offered 2x1 pasta on Saturdays, we had a detail... we went with our pet (dog) and they welcomed us without any problem, the service was super with Mrs. Paty; the fresh pasta made to order, we tried 3 specialties and all of them were super delicious, the portions were well served just the way we like it. We hope to return.

Kid-friendliness: good atmosphere, so no problem

Wheelchair accessibility: its entrance and hallways accessible to them“

“This is a really nice spot to kick back relax the day away. Beach is super clean and the water is beautiful.
I can't tell you about other options because I continue to order the Wings !!!
If you are from Canada or the US you'll find that they make them better than home.
( Beer is Always Cold )

Enjoy this spot and the nice long walk on the beach ⛱️“

“I only stopped here my last day of my trip after seeing they have vegan pastries. The matcha concha was so good I debated buying another to bring on my flight! Also enjoyed a very good coconut milk cappuccino. It’s a nice cafe and you could easily stay here and relax, read or work on a laptop.“

“The food was good and the service was too. We came several months ago and it was spectacular we were in for lunch this time and dinner last. The first experience was spectacular (5 ?) and that is why we came back. I'm not sure why it was not phenomenal this time, but give it a chance. July 2024.“

“Incredible food! This is a gem among tourist traps. The staff are superb and friendly, the food catches you off guard with it's flavor. Ask for the spicy sauces!! :)We had both a variety of tacos and the quesadillas, multiple days and phew it was good!The only problem is that they have a Señor Frogs across, but that's hardly the fault of the restaurant, as they suffer from it too.“

“Such a great experience provided by Mauri and Gabriel (our waiter). I was really nervous about getting scammed after an awful experience at Coco Bongo the day before, but Mauri was so kind and honest. My group was feeling under the weather so Gabriel made sure to make the last day of my bachelorette a bit more special. He invited me to dance with the rest of the dancers, which was a really fun experience! If I’m ever back in the area, I’m certainly reaching out to Mauri for another table!“

“My friends love this place for the food and I go with them because we go in a group, but!, there are no options for those who do not eat seafood I understand that it is a seafood restaurant but they should consider in their menu some option that they could provide minimal muffins, cheese fingers, salad, I don't know! something, the times I go I can only drink there, the only option is flavorless white rice, Playa del Carmen is a place that is filling up with vegetarian and vegan people, consider adding at least one dish for when you go in a group.

Vegetarian options: There is no!

Kid-friendliness: It is a family environment, you can take children.

Parking: They do not have a parking lot, one parks on the street.“

“A very attractive option after going to the beach is this restaurant, the food is top quality, very fresh; The salmon sashimi and mixed yakimeshi were delicious! the variety of cocktails and excellent flavors! The bartender Sofia was very helpful and cordial. The staff in general are very friendly and support you with any questions you may have regarding the dishes. A 10/10 as an oriental food option in the center of Playa del Carmen!“

“La Bodeguita del Medio in Playa del Carmen is a perfect corner to enjoy an authentic Cuban atmosphere. Every night, live music fills the place with joy and energy, making it the ideal place to dance and practice your salsa steps.

One of the highlights is their drinks. The classic mojito is simply delicious, possibly the best you can find in any bar. In addition, the Commander tacos and the shrimp weathered tacos are a true delight, perfect to accompany your drinks.

The atmosphere is second to none, full of life and positive vibes. The service is also very good, with attentive and friendly staff. Although the food doesn't reach five-star perfection, it's still a pretty good option and the prices are very affordable. It is definitely a place that you cannot miss if you are in Playa del Carmen.“

“Very nice place, the atmosphere, the decoration and above all the service and the food uuufff 10/10 I loved the pasta and I need to try many more things, my new favorite place by far! Keep up the good work, the service guys have a great time♡“
