this was probably the most unique and coolest food experience i ever had. all the dishes are pre-set, except for the main course and dessert. there were around 12-15 small courses, grouped into various categories: cocktails, snacks, tapas, main courses, pre-dessert, and dessert (see photos for my customized take home menu)! at times i wasn't even sure what i was having since they looked so cool (lol), though the servers did a great job explaining every dish! for a fine dining experience, it is definitely one of a kind. especially for the price, definitely worth it, and was by far the best food at grand oasis. highly recommend if staying at the resort!

If you don't have any food allergies and you want to enjoy a variety of bursting flavors. This is the place to be. By the time, the main course came, I was full. The service.. From waiter Alan to out wine server. Excellent service. 10 star.

Good food. Be aware, the menu is different if you are staying at hotel and there's no cost vs. making a reservation and coming from another hotel. We watched another party get alot more than we did. When I inquired, I was told that since they are paying, they get more. Seems a little odd considering I was staying at the hotel and "paid" as well. Overall a good experience though. Definitely one of the bright spots of this awful hotel. Eat here, but dont stay at the hotel.

This restaurant is just one of its kind, they call it ’Molecular Cuisine’. Unique dishes and they accommodate any of your food restrictions and allergies. Must book in advance. We celebrated our anniversary and they made us feel special. Great hospitality!

Super amazing restaurant. The service, attention, food and experience is unique. Best restaurant I been in Cancun. The chef is one of a kind, a true artist and cook. I would get back in my next trip without doubting it. They have the best of the best. A very comfortable beautiful place. Very recommended.

Everything was so decadent here!!! We loved every minute of our time here at Benazuza! It was a bit quiet, and I did get cold but they gave me a shall to keep warm. The food was so delicious though! My partner and I enjoyed them so much!

What an experience. This restaurant is amazing! The ambience is outstanding, service was perfect and the food is amazing. It’s an incredible experience with little bites of tasty food, until comes the main dish. Our meat was cooked to perfection. We went to our anniversary dinner and we left very happy. I highly recommend.
