Spice Market - La Cruz

The week I spent at the W resort, I couldn't stop going here. The food is fantastic, in a way that you will not find the variety of new flavors and items so thoughtfully new at every single place in America. The service is on site. I went five nights and still didn't get enough of the menu. The black pepper shrimps and pineapple is tongue chopping. And then the dumplings. Just eat every appetizer twice and then be prepared next night to take the most important courses

Vibe/ambiance: 1 out of 5 Food (quality and taste): 1/5 Service: 3/5 I had high hopes for this place. I was hoping for a change up from typical Mexican food here in Punta Mita. But the food was just bland or awful (not really edible). Looks like they need a refresh here. The vibe and ambience could be better. It was pretty basic: outside by the pool, no view and no real design elements around. I wasn’t a big fan. There are better options outside of this hotel.

I came to this place to celebrate my bday because it is la crème de la crème in the area! Pricy because the portions are really small and I felt that they served me very little wine for a glass however the service and ambiance was very stylish and chic!

Almost every dish we tried here (3 times on our last vacation was amazing. Chicken samosa, the bao, spring rolls, tuna tartare all excellent. The pad thai was just ok but that’s about it. Definitely worth a visit.

Beautiful restaurant and the food was perfect!! Not too big of portions, and delicious flavor. Authentic Asian flavors. Miguel provided fantastic service, very aware of our food allergies and dietary restrictions. Pero and Tony did a great job too! The music a little bit loud for where we were sitting, but I think we were right under the speaker. We’ll be back!
