You will not find a better chef! Everything was made from scratch! A very talented Chef, that you can tell has lots of experience in different cuisines. We had fresh made smoothies every morning with breakfast. Dinners were unbelievable with sooo much food. Make sure to request his Mahi Mahi dish! His attention to detail is noticeable too. I wouldn't use another Chef. You won't be disappointed.

Chef Kirill Grechin is amazing! He was so accommodating with timing and dietary restrictions. He made the most delicious 4-course vegetarian meal with the most amazing mango, condensed milk, biscuit triple layer cake. The ingredients were fresh and local, and he had a wonderful story behind the creation of each dish. I would highly highly recommend, my friends and I are still talking about the meal!

Chef Kirill was absolutely amazing. We had a few dietary restrictions (vegetarian, pescatarian, etc.) and a couple pickier eaters, but he was quick to accommodate us. The food completely exceeded our expectations - everything was delicious and beautifully plated. He served authentic mexican dishes and the ingredients were super fresh. They even brought a few pieces of decor (cloth napkins, candles, etc.) to match the vibe of our event.

Chef Kirill and his team surpassed my expectations. He was professional, engaging and food was amazing! My guest felt like VIP, he had the table set to perfection. My partner and I were celebrating our birthdays together and he helped us create memories we will never forget. He gets 5 stars in our book, we can’t wait to host future celebration with him!

Chef Kirill was awesome to work with. He was able to craft custom menus around core foods we wanted included. He was punctual and very detail orient. The quality of the food and the presentation of it was top notch. In fact, the steak lunch he made for us was hands down much better than the dinner we had at one of the top rated Playa De Carmen steak houses we ate at the night before. I will definitely book another meal with Chef Kirill when we are next in Playa.
