Visitor Testimonials (235)

Very good place where you can have breakfast and lunch, you are also provided with an early dinner. The food is delicious (large portions), the drinks are excellent. The prices are acceptable. Service is good. The only thing is that you can ask the waiter guy not to choke too much

Exceptional food! Faro Azul delivers a culinary experience that truly stands out. Every dish is a masterpiece of flavors, showcasing the skill of the chefs.

Located steps from the beach. Drinks and kitchen on site. Friendly staff.

This little restaurant right on the beach is insanely good w lots of flavor, awesome service, amazing drinks with all ingredients fresh/organic and literally made pretty much in front of you. While enjoying the food and cocktails you have a direct view of the ocean. If you like to eat in AC this is not the pace for you. This is authentic Mexican and they’ll let you tweak the menu if you like or create your own dishes. We are here almost every day for two weeks. Our other favorites were Harry’s, Sonora grill and Polaris. Those are all 5 star steak houses and much different vibe. If your looking for extensive wine menu, a DJ and becoming at your every wim, this is not the place for yours. Those have a time and place-:) but if you want high quality authentic Mexican on the beach essentially with cool people enjoy!

We loved our stay at Mareazul, and eating here was a highlight of our visit! The staff was very friendly, the food was full of flavor, and the prices are much cheaper than what we found at comparable restaurants in the area. We ate breakfast here (huevos rancheros for the sun), has lunch (coconut shrimp and the sliders), and enjoyed a few cocktails too. We ate onsite and had delivery to our beach chairs - highly recommend!
