Casa Banana - Tulum

Went to casa banana after reading countless amounts of reviews on the other Tulum strip spots ALL the reviews were incredible. And that the restaurant was incredible. It did not disappoint and has probably been my favorite meal so far in Tulum. The food was fresh had an amazing taste. The cocktails could have been a bit stronger they tasted like juice. But everything else was great! Recommendations: steak empanadas, grilled calamari salad, picaña, and the cauliflower gratinado, the crepes for dessert with a carajillo.

We ordered the Argentinian Steak and the Ribeye. They were both cooked PERFECTLY and absolutely delicious so 10/10 for steak quality. We also had the wood-fired Octopus as a starter. This will not disappoint! For desert we had the Chocolate Mousse and the Crepes de Tres Leches with banana ice cream. Wow! All of that was spectacular. Here are my hang ups about the restaurant: When we walked in the music was so loud we thought there was a club next door. Don’t get me wrong, it was definitely vibes. But, I was expecting it to be a little less loud. Second thing, I made the reservation through the app and listed the event we were celebrating, plus a request for an outside table. None of that was honored. I told my server it was my husband’s birthday and he never wished him a happy birthday. In the grander scheme of things, that is not a big deal. What IS a big deal is that the prices of the food are that of a 5 star restaurant in the US. All of the little details that make the service at a 5 star restaurant were lacking. I felt obligated to tip my server 18%, so that should tell how I felt about the service. I am a SoCal girl that dines out quite a bit, so I do not feel that I’m being harsh in my review. I don’t think I would dine here again, but I would recommend it for a killer steak. That’s all.

¡1000/10! Soy vegana y estaba un poco nerviosa porque es un restaurante argentino/de carne, pero los platos veganos que tienen son ¡WOOOOOW! Les recomiendo hacer una reserva ya que se llena bastante. ¡El ambiente, la comida; todo delicioso!

The experience was great, eating exquisite and the staff very welcome gracias casa banana
