Fodor's Review:

Reliably good pizza and pasta, handmade in full view of patrons, have made this fine Italian restaurant a favorite. Appetizers include a salmon carpaccio that practically melts in your mouth and a light calamari. One of this Italian restaurant's best features is its extensive wine cellar. Although it's located inside a mall, the restaurant's main dining room is elegant, with stained-glass panels on the ceiling, and live piano music.

We just returned from Cancun and we also had a wonderful meal at this restaurant. The service was world class(down to aerating the wine into a swan decanter),the table ware is elegant,and the food!!!. Their home made pasta is improbably good(who would expect pasta like this in Mexico)the prices are very reasonable. This restaurant deserves to be recognized as outstanding

Ok folks, here is the real story. I am very critical of resturaunts and I just came back from what was without question the best italian meal I have had in decades. Cenacola is my new favorite for hand made Italian cusine. From the time we walked in, the place was 100% class. Atmosphere, Service and Food Quality are beyond question and a must try in Cancun.

The restaurant was nice, but the wait staff seemed very rushed and our service was very slow. Food was good and so was wine list.
