Sometimes you can tell just by looking at a place that it's going to be good. Altamar's decor is elegantly spare, nothing added to the clean lines and quality materials, and the food runs along the same honest lines. "Just" really excellent quality and freshness, well presented. Our seafood dinners were first rate, and the wines well chosen. Highly recommended.

I own a restaurant and this is the type of restaurant I love to find when I travel. The chef has a passion for cooking authentic Mexican/Mayan dishes and that passion showed in everything we sampled. The staff was prompt, courteous, and knowledgeable. Well worth the quick trip into Tulum Pueblo!!

Food was great on Altamar, they have good recipies and high quality ingredients. The decoration of the restaurant is also good, I spend a good dinner time there.

We went to dinner at Altamar - the food was out of this world. It was my favorite meal in Tulum. The sauce was unlike anything I had eaten before - complex, delicious flavors. The wait staff was super friendly and the atmosphere was really nice. Definitely recommend if you are in Tulum!

We went to Altamar based on others review. My boyfriend and I had the best dinner with great food and wonderful atmosphere. We want to thank Armond for his wonderful service and explaining in detail of the all the food & the tequila shots! Thank you for the great service and fantastic dining experience.

The restaurant has a huge open air patio and a view of the shops on the main street or the partially open kitchen, depending upon which way you face. We sampled traditional Yucatecan dishes They were done... More

My wife and I took the cooking class at Altamar last week after seeing the advertisement the night before while we were there for dinner. The dinner was very enjoyable but the cooking class was what we will remember this restaurant for. Let's call it a 3/4 day class (arrived at 9:30, finished around 2:30), we started with 3 different... More

We went to Altamar based on trip advisor reviews and were not disappointed. We did have a little trouble finding it though as you can't see it from the main street very easily. It's on the south side, and it's across the side street from the Buenos Aires steak house (you'll see that). While it was still early (~7pm) we... More
