The food, service, and dining area were all great at Kondesa. The staff was knowledgeable about the food they were serving and had great personalities. The courtyard seating area was beautiful for a night or day dining experience. The Kondesa was so good that we ended up eating at their sister restaurant, Kinta the night after trying Kondesa.

This was one of our favorite restaurants on the island. The menu was very unique and I'm still thinking about the tuna catch of the day. Jorge, was kind enough to modify my order to my taste and he was very attentive and professional. We didn't get a chance to dine at the sister restaurant Kinta, but after dining at... More

We loved Kondesa as much as we loved its sister restaurant Kinta. Owner Chris and staff are welcoming at both and very attentive. The garden atmosphere is wonderful. Just like Kinta the food is creative and tasty!

What an amazing dining experience! Be sure to treat yourself to a wonderful romantic dinner at Kondesa when visiting Cozumel. The ambiance is perfect - in a romantic and lush garden setting, the food is fresh and delicious (and wonderfully presented), and the service is extraordinary - well trained and super-nice staff!

This sister restaurant to the excellent Kinta may outshine its sibling. Though relatively small, it boasts one of the most beautiful garden dining rooms anywhere. But the food is the star at Kondesa... like owner Chris' fare at Kinta, it is consistently delicious and innovative. That together with efficient and personable servers, and overseen by attentive Daniel the Manager, makes... More

Great service and food in a tropical setting. Daniel gave us a nice history of the place, and explained the menu selections.

Kondesa is like an oasis in the desert! From the second you meet the sweet hostess on your way into paradise you are so comfortable and pleased. The food is incredible; the wait never missed a beat. Daniel, the manager was helpful, attentive and truly added to the air of hospitality. Don't miss this stop on your Cozumel retreat.
