Malpeque en Benito Juárez

This spot was great for a nice family night out. Victor was exceptional. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to make memories with their family

We ate at Malpeque 2 nights in a row. The service from Juan Luis was amazing! The lobster and sea bass were delightful. The best restaurant I have ever eaten at in my life.

We recently stayed at the Waldorf for our 15th anniversary, a special occasion that we had been looking forward to. Unfortunately, our stay began with disappointment. Due to a wedding booking at the hotel, we were relocated to the all-inclusive property next door for four out of the five nights. While we appreciate that one night at the Waldorf was kept for us, the move did not align with our preferences, as we’re not fans of all-inclusive resorts or their focus on quantity over quality. Despite this setback, our dinner at Malpeque Restaurant during our one night at the Waldorf was a highlight. Rodrigo, the manager, was incredibly polite, professional, and accommodating. He personally apologized for the inconvenience caused by the rehearsal dinner happening that evening. Our server, Marco Tejada, also demonstrated exceptional professionalism and warmth, ensuring our experience was enjoyable. The food was outstanding and redeemed our initial impression to some extent. These two gentlemen truly made us feel valued and appreciated as guests, even under less-than-ideal circumstances. This was our third visit to the Waldorf, and while this experience didn’t meet our high expectations from previous stays, we are grateful for the efforts of Rodrigo and Marco. They deserve a 10/10 for their dedication and service, which helped salvage a trip that started on the wrong foot. Muchas Gracias

Our dinner was excellent at Malpeque! We stayed at the Waldorf Astoria and ate dinner at Malpeque twice during our stay. We had steak, and it was tender and delicious. The bread is fantastic, too. Marco was our server both nights, and he and his team were awesome!

The Waldorf Astoria in Cancun is an excellent and uniquely secluded hotel, and its signature restaurant, Malpeque, is simply fantastic! We are currently on vacation celebrating our son's birthday(8 years old) and experiencing the exceptional service offered by Waldorf. Our waiter, Jimin, was excellent at assisting us with ordering the specials, both cocktails and entrees, at Malpeque. He and his colleagues made sure everything was perfect during our dinner! The cuisine is outstanding, the ambiance is impossible to beat (alfresco with the sounds and views across the ocean), and the service was impeccable. Do not miss an opportunity to experience this jewel in Cancun!

We have been to this spot 4 times in the last year. It’s is so delicious and the food is curated with perceptible attention and skill. We are traveling foodies with a love of fine dining. Our favorite waiter Juan Luis (JL) is so welcoming, knowledgeable and skilled in his trade. We actually called ahead to request him at all of our following visits. Mexico is known for fabulous service, but this spot takes it to another level. Mentionable favorite dishes are the Corn soup, grilled Octopus, Colossal Shrimp, Grilled Lobster, Sea-bass, sesame encrusted asparagus and the cauliflower. The tables around us were also voicing equally delicious meals and commentary during our latest experience. The restaurant has a high-end mixology bar attached with a Vegas level cocktail selection and high-end spirits. This is casual fine dining at its finest.

Our server, Jaime, was incredible! The food and ambiance were perfect and we will remember the meal for a long time. What a lovely way to celebrate a birthday!

Wow the food at Malpeque is absolutely amazing and beautifully prepared!! We came to this restaurant several nights because of how much we enjoyed the food and service. We tried the fish of the day for 2 (sea bass), colossal shrimp, crispy asparagus, potato wedges, corn polenta and asparagus corn salad. Everything is absolutely delicious but the repeats for us were the crispy asparagus and the colossal shrimp. So so yummy. Aside from the food, the service and hospitality are phenomenal. Jaime is the kindest, sweetest, most thoughtful server we’ve ever had. We even requested him as our server multiple times because of how warm and kind he is. We enjoyed spending time with him. Rodrigo, the restaurant manager, is also incredibly kind and thoughtful. He cares very much about the customers’ experience and makes sure that everyone feels special and cared for. What a wonderful experience - we will certainly be back for the food and service at Malpeque! Huge shoutout again to Jaime and Rodrigo!

Skip lunch so you can try everything for dinner at Malpeque. Corn soup, asparagus, cauliflower, filet mignon, and the chocolate cake with raspberry sorbet were one of our top 5 meals ever. We were in

My husband and I enjoyed a fabulous meal at Malpeque. Marco was our waiter and he was so helpful, kind and thoughtful. He made sure our experience was perfect! The food was wonderful. We enjoyed the sea bass, shrimp and yellow fin tuna. It was a very memorable dinner and will we absolutely be dining here again soon!

Juan Luis at Malpeque was informative and professional. His recommendations were spot on. Make sure t that you try the cauliflower and the corn soup! So good!

Delicious dinner at Malpeque! We shared a beautiful catch of the day and it was cooked to perfection. Our server, Orlando, also recommended we try the cauliflower side dish which was delicious. Great dinner, great service and a beautiful ambience. We will be back!!

Tuvimos dos comidas fabulosas en Malpeque durante nuestra estancia - ambos hechos especiales por nuestro increíble servidor, Jamie! Muy recomendable!

¡Jaime, Jaime, Jaime! ¡Qué joya! Nos alojamos en el complejo 5 noches y cenamos aquí 3. Conocimos a Jaime la primera noche y tuvimos una conexión inmediata. Él hizo nuestras noches hermosas y se hizo un lugar en todos nuestros corazones. ¡Qué recuerdos tan maravillosos! La última noche que cenamos allí, habíamos ido a pescar en alta mar antes. El maestro chef preparó nuestro pescado de 3 maneras diferentes, hizo guarniciones, ensaladas y salsas para acompañarlo. ¡Absolutamente increíble! Teníamos una habitación privada y un miembro de nuestro grupo nos preguntó si teníamos la oportunidad de poner música diferente. No 3 minutos después, trajeron un altavoz grande para que pudiéramos conectarnos por Bluetooth. ¡Me pisotearon! ¡Cuando digo que van más allá, no hay rival! Nos encanta todo el personal y volveremos! Gracias por todo lo que hizo para que nuestra estancia fuera más que espectacular! ¡Te queremos, Jaime!

Jaime was a wonderful server!!! He was thoughtful and very detailed in every aspect!!! Go see him!! He goes above and beyond!

We dined at Malpeque twice during our stay. Juan Luis was an excellent server - attentive, warm personality and knowledgeable of the menu and preparation. He even provided me with a recipe for my favorite item on the menu (Beef Tartar). The menu was creative and all of the dishes were prepared and presented with the utmost care. Everything we tried was beyond delicious.

Fantastic meal. We arrived on the restaurants 2nd anniversary. They offered the main menu, but we chose the two special tasting menus, one vegan and one not. The dishes were incredible. Very creative. Served with style and panache. Both the chef and the manager came out and spoke with us. A truly unique experience. We loved it.

We had a beautiful meal outside. The polenta was some of the best I’ve ever had. I’m not a vegetarian, but the vegetable dishes were the highlight for me. UNBELIEVABLY good!!! And the presentation of each of the dishes is like edible art!

Súper rico todos los platos ! Excelente las salsas, sopa de elote , la ensalada de calabaza y el pollo a la brasa. Muy buen servicio Jaime fue nuestro mesero y nos atendió espectacular.

La experiencia de cena más increíble, desde los increíbles sabores hasta la increíble hospitalidad... ¡Ah, y las vistas!

From the moment we walked into the resort, we felt at ease. The restaurant staff were amazing, including our waiter, Juan Luis. They were attentive, explained each dish as it came out, and went above and beyond to ensure we were satisfied. The food was fabulous and fresh as well. An overall great dining experience.

Nice cosy atmosphere, Nice staff and food. Big up to Juan who was super helpful, kind and knowledgeable! Will be back! Thomas from Chicago 😉

Absolutely beautiful dining experience The food was amazing and we enjoyed everything. Would definitely recommend and we will come again. The Jones’

The team is very attentive and the food is delicious. But it can be a bit hard for vegetarians to find something else than side dishes. But besides that we don’t have anything to complain about and really enjoyed our stay.

Amazing food and attentive service! Location is beautiful and we felt very taken care of.

Excelente calidad de los mariscos. Buenas recomendaciones del mesero. Tranquilo para comer bien y platicar a gusto. Faltaría algo de música en vivo

Fish of the day and Oso Buco fantastic. Our server Jaime was professional and had good recommendations. Highly recommend.

Excelente comida fresca de pescados y mariscos. Y la atención es única como la que tiene el hotel Waldorf Astoria. Ambiente cálidos y con la opción de elegir donde sentarse con A/C o afuera con la temperatura de ambiente. Recomiendo que lo prueben.

We had an unbelievable dinner here! Amazing service as well by Jaime! He went above and beyond to make our experience wonderful. Food was extremely fresh and delicious. Absolutely recommend!

ES.PEC.TA.CU.LAR lugar. Todo estuvo irreal. Jaime, nuestro mesero, de rifó otro nivel. Increíble experiencia de cena.

El hotel, instalaciones y comida están ESPECTACULAR. JAIME nuestro mesero de Malpeque un sueño. El sous chef Fito Mendoza una belleza también. Nos recibieron como en nuestra casa.

Great atmosphere, hospitality and the food was exceptional! Our waiter Juan Luis was very attentive, kind, funny and spaced our evening out brilliantly. Also, bartender Elma, hope I got the name right, was awesome and made excellent drinks. Highly recommend the Baja oysters, spiny lobster and raspberry tiramisu! Great experience for our anniversary!!!

Delicious food and wonderful service! My husband and I got full on the seafood platter for 2, which was just an appetizer and we ate that with the Zucchini salad and we split a bowl of the sea urchin soup! Wow! So good! We got stuffed with that! I had a mock tail called Revenge and that was so refreshing. My hubby had a a delicious glass of white wine from New Zealand and he was a happy camper.😁 Our waiter Sergio surprised us with a complimentary dessert for our 25th anniversary. Great restaurant at the Waldorf Astoria if you’re staying there!😉👍🏼

Great food and atmosphere! Our server Jaime was amazing, very courteous and kind and knowledgeable. Went with our kids and they were so accommodating. Highly recommend for seafood options!

The Waldorf Astoria Cancun is remarkable. The property is beautiful and the food is amazing but the service makes this place a jewel. Enrique went out his way to make our dining experience unique and unforgettable!

We had a wonderful experience with Jaime. The food was good, and the service was excellent! The restaurant was beautiful. Jaime was thoughtful and quick to serve us well. Definitely recommend!

Very good service, amazing food, it was my brothers birthday and they gifted us with a complimentary white chocolate tiramisu. Many courses served throughout the meal and once again, amazing service, was very pleased with my experience here, would recommend and come again

Amazing food and great staff who are super friendly. We had the seafood tower and two desserts super full and happy. We will be eating again here.

What a wonderful experience!! The food was excellent and the service by Jaime was even better. They made my son’s birthday very special! I would give ten stars and a thumbs up! We will definitely return in the future!!

First time having octopus and I loved it! Service was great and the staff are welcoming and very nice! Thank you for an amazing experience.

I had a fantastic meal at Malpeque. Everything was delicious from start to finish. The hostess Aranza was especially gracious.

Booked here for anniversary dinner while staying at the Waldorf Astoria. Service was wonderful and the food recommendations by the server tasted great.

Excellent cocktails and mock-tails! The fish of the day was perfectly cooked and the Tiradito and salmon appetizers were also delicious! My husband also loved the colossal shrimp. Enrique was an excellent and attentive server with great recommendations. We’ll be back!

From the moment the hostess sat us down we were greeted with a very kind and friendly server, Orlando. He gave us cocktail recommendations, explained what the catch of the day was, their popular dishes, and was extremely attentive. My wife and I were celebrating our anniversary and they treated us to a small cake and a small cocktail on the house. Overall our experience was a 10/10. Highly recommend coming here! The food was amazing and delicious. Ask for Orlando, he gave us world class service! The manager also came and introduced himself and checked in on how we were enjoying the service.

Staff and food were excellent. Highly recommend Malpeque! Food was excellent along with drinks and atmosphere! Will definitely be back.

The food was amazing! We dined here for 2 nights in a row! Everyone is so attentive, our waiter kept our drinks filled at all times. The manager stopped by to ask about our service

Gorgeous restaurant and an incredible dining experience. The food, staff, and atmosphere were exceptional. Thank you for a fantastic evening with friends and family.

Really good place. Special shoutout to the chef who personally came to say hi! Highly recommend the big catch of the day, was one of the best fish I had in a long time

Jaime was simply the best. He made us feel at home and his suggestions were perfectly aligned with our desires. He was not only attentive to every detail, but also a fantastic listener to our needs. The food was absolutely delicious. The restaurant director, Rodrigo visits our table to check in, this was a really nice touch and a fantastic example of extraordinary service. Can’t wait to return!

El servicio es extraordinario en especial de Jaime, definitivamente lo recomiendo muchísimo… Y la comida deliciosa.
