- KKatieHouston •9 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoLast night my friends and family went to Porfirio' for dinner. We made a reservation for a group of six. Several of us have been there before, but we had a couple of first-timers in the group. Everything was excellent. Service was impeccable, food was amazing, and we were delighted. I really can't say enough about how much I enjoy visiting this restaurant. From my last visit in June there were a couple of menu changes and everything continued to delight. Finally, it's loud. The soundtrack is good, but don't plan for a deep conversation, especially across a larger table. I'll be back the next time I'm in Cancun!!More infoPorfirio's CancunPrice: Very Expensive• Mexican• Cancún•4.7

- SStephenPhoenix / Arizona •39 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 14, 2024I had made reservations for my wife and I for the evening of the 14th at 6:30pm. we were with a a large group for a wedding so I had to change the reservation from 2 to 6. The restaurant had texted me before our reservation letting me know that they were not having the regular menu but it was a mexican grill menu. We walked on the beach from Andaz Mayakoba to the restaurant but5 when we arrived we were told there was a special event and that they move dus to the Aqui Me Quedo which was right next door. The setting was amazing, we had 6:30pm reservations so we were the first ones to be seated, we did not like the table they had for us because one side was a swing and the ladies were not comfortable with that so they moved us to another table, it was weird as they seem confused as to where to move us as the restaurant was completely empty. Once seated our server told us what the "Mexican Grill" was about, it was a buffet, I can not even remember how many stations but it was seafood, meat, tacos, dessert, salads, etc... There were two different prices, one with alcohol included, can't remember that price per person and the price with no alcohol included was 176.00 per person, well worth it if you are a big eater. Not sure if my wife and I got our money's worth but it was delicious and well worth it. The only strange part about the evening was the music, it was two guys on a xylophone but it was very annoying as it sounded like we were in a circus.More infoPunta Bonita - Rosewood MayakobaPrice: Expensive• Contemporary Mexican• Playa del Carmen / Riviera Maya•4.6
