The 12 Best Restaurants In Tulum - Tulum - The Infatuation

"Andrea Gentl & Martin Hyers GentlandHyers.com Hartwood is buzzing from the second the doors open at 5:30pm. Couples share pineapple ceviches or lobsters big enough to have their own seat by candlelight, at tables that look like they were carved out of a tree trunk. Come here with a group so you can split things like gamba mayas in a nutty, spicy sauce, or ceviche tropical served in a half coconut spilling over with chunks of white fish and fruit, or sea bass with skin crisped to perfection. It’s hard to make a bad decision here, except for the occasional misstep (like a sweet potato side that’s a little too sweet). You’ll have to email a few weeks ahead to get a table, but we promise it’s worth it." - barbara gutierrez, rianne shlebak
