Básico Cocina De Playa - Isla Holbox

Trendy restaurant. Very small portions for entrees, glad they recommended we had 3-4 of them. They were just alright . The drinks however, delicious! Love the decor and vibe of the place although I wouldn 't necessarily come back. It was quite expensive.

Basico is... Basico! And that's OK! 3 stars on yelp is OK!! This place wins for it's ambiance and it's well intentioned, extremely kind staff. Reservations are recommended, and I recommend sitting at a proper table (the tables in the front stare into a muddy street with no ambiance). The ambiance is INSIDE this establishment. This place fails at: being in stock of every wine I tried to order on the menu. Also fails at having a server that is knowledgable about their menu (and wine list) this does not mean it will happen to you, this was only my experience. Very small portion sizes. Expensive (I lived in NYC for 4 years, I do not use this word lightly). This bill for 2 people with just a few drinks was $140 before tax and gratuity. I was hungry after and ate a Kind bar (raspberry flavored. I'm all about that OG flavor). Every meal hereafter at OHTER restaurants (with MORE food and MORE drinks and at BETTER places was generally 1/3 to 1/4 that amount). I wouldn't come here again unless it was to only drink cocktails and enjoy the ambiance.

Te gusta ser esfado? Este es el lugar. Las porciones son miserables y los precios excesivamente altos. Se entiende que es una isla pero este establecimiento abusa (un taco en $140!!! . La comida no es mala pero no vale lo que cuesta.

This place belongs in Cancun and really ruins the island vibe. As they say on the island Básico is for the Básico.

La comida tiene ingredientes de calidad pero no llega a ser deliciosa, está bien pero el sabor podría ser mucho mejor. Pedimos pasta y lasagna de berenjena. La atención es buena y amable
