The story
Ramona sits within the NIZUC Resort along Cancún's Zona Hotelera, where the Caribbean meets a setting designed for unhurried, considered dining. The restaurant's focus is Mexican cuisine — rooted in the country's deep culinary traditions and shaped by the coastal surroundings of Quintana Roo.
In 2024, Wine Spectator granted Ramona its Award of Excellence, a distinction that speaks to the seriousness of the wine list and its pairing with the kitchen's output. For a Mexican restaurant on the Yucatán Peninsula, earning that recognition places Ramona among a select group of dining destinations where the cellar is treated with the same care as the plate.
Ramona operates as a dinner destination, making it a natural choice for guests seeking a deliberate evening meal rather than a casual stop. The combination of a Wine Spectator-recognized program and a menu grounded in Mexican cuisine gives the restaurant a clear identity within NIZUC's broader offerings — one that rewards guests who come with an appetite for both food and wine.
