Chaya en Benito Juárez

It would be a great place just for the food, but the service is awesome. The staff is attentive and friendly. If you want to feel really special, then this is a must for you

Amazing. Simply amazing. Perfect service and delightful food. Our awesome hostesses, Ivanna and Laura, made us feel so welcome everytime. The service is so warm and the food taste homemade. Our waiters Manuel, Xavier and Juan were so attentive and helpful. Finally, a big thank you to the manager, Santiago, who is simply aiming for perfection and nothing less. You made pour stay truly special

Fantastic breakfast! Mexican French toast, fresh coffee, mimosas and a beautiful view. Israel or server was very polite & attentive. This is a breakfast to remember

Beautiful spot by the pool where you can enjoy a perfect breakfast inside or out. The staff is extremely attentive and take care of your needs before you realize you have them. The hosts remembered our names every morning and greeted us with big smiles. We ate here 5 mornings and weren’t disappointed once. Having to deal with dairy and melon allergies, they were very careful and never messed that up once. So appreciative to the care and great way to start each day! Thank you!!

Fantastic breakfast with both local specialities and brunch items with a European flare. Ivanna always welcomed us warmly and ensured we had the best service! If you sit outside you can not just see the ocean but the sweet sounds of local birds!

Delicious food and excellent service, especially from Benjomin! The mezcal French toast and spicy chilaquiles are incredible.

The staff was top notch. The morning hostess, Ivanna, was always smiling and welcoming. She truly made you feel at home when you entered Chaya. The entire staff was gracious. They always greeted you by your name and inquired regarding any food allergies. We enjoyed every meal breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The menu combined flavors and ingredients from the Mayan culture with other international cuisines making for a wonderful taste sensation.

We had an amazing anniversary dinner at Chaya! The food was all delicious, especially the Key Lime Pie dessert! Our waiter Angello was so kind and took great care of us, and he explained all of the dishes in great detail. The manager Alain also checked in with us regularly to make sure we were having a great time. Great dinner, great atmosphere, excellent service!

Waldorf Astoria is the top of the top! The jewel of Cancun surely lives up to its name. Chaya restaurant is no exception. The dining experience is amazing. We as a family ate breakfast here every Morning- food is delicious and fresh. Nothing is overlooked. The wait staff top notch. Anything you wish for will be done We also had a family dinner at Chaya. Again excellent service by Samuel. The food is absolutely amazing. Pride is taken to ensure that everyone is happy and everything is perfect. Thank you restaurant manager Alain for a perfect evening.

Visited in August for our family vacation . Had breakfast here every morning. Can’t speak highly enough about the staff and waiters . Adrian , Manuel , Daniel were all amazing . They were attentive and gave us great service all week . I also want to give a shout out to the amazing Chef - Chef Rocio , she made amazing food daily for us . I would definitely stop by for breakfast here on your stay .

Chaya is THE place to be from breakfast to dinner. The American breakfast with a choice of one cold drink and one hot drink, one cold and one hot appetizer, one pastry basket (French croissant, brioche and bread), a hot main specialty dish and one side of avocado or potato or bacon or bean… nice presentation and Delicious Delicious We enjoyed the pasta night dinner on Wednesday. Omg the sourdough bread!!! So good; crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Ravioli, risotto, spaghetti and fettuccine 😋 The food is awesome “Bravo Chef!” but the service is more than perfect! Thanks to the whole team from hostess, bar, the service. Daniel, Victor, Felipe, Alberto, Laura…and more ( sorry if I forgot your name). “Merci pour votre attention à notre égard”🙏 Family Hong

One of the best meals we have ever eaten. Gorgeous and unique presentations, delicious bites, gracious hosts and server, and hats off to the chef(s) who should definitely be award-winning notoriety! From introduction to the restaurant to the final coffee- Chaya was a brilliant experience that will be remembered for years! The yellowfin appetizer, the kale avocado salad and our individual entrees (ribeye and salmon) were incredible culinary delights! May we be so fortunate to return again soon! We dined at Chaya for both dinner and breakfast!

Breakfast here is amazing and the service is even better. Daniel was our server multiple times for breakfast and he was incredibly helpful and accommodating. I definitely recommend Chaya for breakfast and dinner.

Breakfast 🥞 was absolutely amazing! We came here for the days we stayed. Our waiter Manuel was attentive and made excellent recommendations. You can tell he knows his stuff. This place is a must !!

Very exclusive restaurant experience. Friendly and responsive staff. Fantastic food…but Alberto was the most attentive and friendly server we have ever had. We discussed the events of our day (a trip to Tulum) and he shared a ton of history and personal experience with us…he was careful to explain every menu item (trust me, most of them require explanation!) and gave great recommendations based on what we expressed interest in. Alberto was absolutely the best part of our experience at Chaya. We started with the pea soup…it was very tasty! Then on to a calamari appetizer which was served over a green salad with a ginger sauce that was one of my favorite parts of the meal…then on to the Wagu Ribeye which was prepared perfectly. The steak butter pairing is absolutely fantastic! Then on to desert… this is where the “but…” comes in…I feel with some of the menu items the chef is just trying too hard to prove something. The menu is a bit hard to decipher, and items that sound familiar come to the table totally unrecognizable. The modern term is “de-constructed.” Maybe I’m just a simple man that likes simple food…but when I order key lime pie…I expect a piece of pie, that taste like lime Custard… I’ve attached a photo of what I received. It was a sugar lemon filled with lemon sorbet on top of meringue. If you’d called it anything else I wouldn’t have been disappointed with the desert…in fact, it was an absolutely incredible Presentation and flavor… But it is NOT key lime pie! So, you see what I mean…we’re trying to reinvent the wheel with some of this stuff. Now, that said…I mentioned to our fabulous server, Alberto, that sometimes all this fancy stuff just gets the best of me and I’d just like a piece of chocolate cake….we laughed and never thought anything more of it…then, as we were leaving the restaurant he and his manager caught us on the way out the door…with a piece of chocolate cake boxed to take with us! Overall, very pleased with our experience at Chaya, but without Alberto it would not have been nearly as enjoyable.

Today was our first time eating breakfast in the Waldorf Astoria Cancun. The food at the Chaya restaurant was exceptional and especially the service. Our waiter, Adrian Yam, was very attentive to us. Making sure our requests were met well. He was a very patient and caring waiter taking our orders in detail and making sure we felt welcomed. We will be coming back again! Thank you Adrian.

The Chaya restaurant’s food is every bit as good as the service you receive, which is outstanding!! In our six day stay we ate at Chaya everyday , and every waiter we had, from Roberto to Sammy to Adrian and the rest, all were outstanding at delivering 1st class service and food to match. In addition, Mr Eric Porter, the leader of the dining areas, personally visited our table, spoke with us for several minutes and offered my wife & I some delicious dinner drinks. What a treat from Eric!! Simply a first class facility with service members to match !,

During our memorable vacation at the beautiful Waldorf Astoria Hotel in Cancun, we had the pleasure to enjoy Chaya for breakfasts and dinners. Chaya boasts an inviting and elegant ambiance. The tasteful decor, and comfortable seating create a perfect setting for a relaxed and enjoyable meal. Breakfasts are outstanding, offering all the favorites you can expect in a 5 stars hotel. The servers are attentive, friendly and efficient. Dinners are excellent as well. The menu offers a large variety of dishes that caters to every need. We particularly loved the salad “Frisee with egg and lardons”, the fresh seabass and the bone ribeye perfectly cooked medium rare. Among all the very nice staff, a very special thanks to Laura, the charming hostess, our server Samuel and particularly Alain ( for “Alain Delon” ) the manager who added the special plus which makes the experience even better! Chaya is part of the reasons we will be happy to return to the Waldorf Astoria Cancun in the future!
