⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This restaurant in Playa del Carmen is an absolute hidden gem! The atmosphere is unbeatable, spectacular views right over the beach, with the sound of the waves creating the perfect backdrop. The food was just as impressive as the scenery. The short ribs with eggs were out of this world tender, flavorful, and beautifully plated. Every bite was perfection. A must-visit spot if you’re looking for a memorable meal with stunning ocean views! The views, sound of waves during an intimate dinner 10/10. Recommendations were very much appreciated by our server Hugo and tasty! We came for our 3 yr anniversary and at the end of the dinner they played a beautiful song w/ champagne and sparklers 💕✨ We realized this place is very close to our Airbnb and so we found the entrance right next to the beach and walked up the stairs. Medium size room open to the beautiful view of the ocean. We both wanted a side salad and even though it wasn’t on the menu, the chef made an absolutely delicious salad for us. The Turkish eggs were delicious and somewhat spicy. Next time I’ll ask to keep the spice on the side. My husband had the skillet and said they it was too salty. The waiter was very friendly and helpful. Maybe the girl that brought us the food and the one we paid to should learn from him. All in all it was a great breakfast experience.

Went for Mothers Day… Amazing food, amazing atmosphere. Our waiter was run off his feet. Maybe short staffed. Either way the experience was great! Kids loved it. Wife loved it. Music was great. I felt bad for our waiter.

What a birthday gift from my husband to spend an evening at Piaggia. Jesus and Oda created the perfect birthday event. Beachfront dining at its very best! The food was exquisite. I have a mature palate, so I'm kinda picky🤣The culinary brilliance coupled with the freshness of the organic ingredients was fantastic! I would highly recommend this experience on next trip to Playa Del Carmen.
