    Arca in Tulum is an absolute must-visit for anyone looking to experience the best of modern Mexican cuisine. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with incredible service that set the tone for an unforgettable dining experience. The ambiance is magical, blending perfectly with Tulum’s lush, tropical surroundings, making you feel as if you’ve stepped into a hidden paradise. The dishes here are nothing short of spectacular. The suckling pig was a highlight, perfectly tender with flavors that were both rich and balanced. The octopus was another standout — cooked to perfection, with a smoky depth that lingered beautifully. And then there’s the bone marrow, which was an indulgent delight, creamy and packed with flavor. Each dish showcased the chef’s creativity and mastery, with local ingredients taking center stage. Arca truly delivers on all fronts, with an atmosphere that draws you in and food that leaves you wanting more. If you’re in Tulum, make sure Arca is on your list – it’s an experience you won’t want to miss!

    We went with a group of 6 for a birthday dinner! It was fantastic. We had the mezcal/passionfruit cocktail which was awesome (and some wine). Service was great-he helped guide us to ordering the perfect amount of food, and not over doing it. For 6 people we had 4 apps and 5 entrees, and that was exactly right. He gave honest and enthusiastic service and answered all of our questions. The hamachi crudo, kampachi ceviche, short rib with tortilla entree, and rib eye were standouts, but everything was delicious and beautifully presented! Thank you so much! Updated to add- this was our first meal for our 5 day trip, and it was by FAR the best meal and service of the vacation!! Can’t wait to come back.
