- RRyanDenver / Colorado •14 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoLa Madalena did not disappoint! It was a true dining experience. It was fun watching the ceiling murals change to different works of art. The food was phenomenal. We split a tenderloin steak, Caesar salad, truffle fries and fried Oreos. It was more than enough for the three of us. The wait staff was great, you felt very catered to and they did not rush you. It was pricey but it was well worth it.More infoLa MadalenaPrice: Very Expensive• Mexican• Cancún•4.7

- DDonnySacramento / Sacramento Valley •6 reviews4.0Dined 2 days agoThe food in the ambience are really top-notch. The price is a little bit high for the food, but that is to be expected when you go into a restaurant in la Isla. As with most restaurants in Cancun they really try to be upscale, but it’s really hard without proper training in true customer service, especially customer service within a restaurant and a various requests and questions that people will generally have one viewing the menu, so just keep that in mind. Unless you’re fluent in Spanish completely trying to explain or ask questions that are direct or specific regarding the food, and how it’s prepared, etc. Keep in mind that this is a thai/Indian fusion restaurant so naturally there will be questions that are asked about various items on the menu because of the origin recipes. That is truly where the disconnect lies so knowing that going into having a meal here will make it a little bit simpler for you. All in all, it is a very nice place to have a good solid meal.More infoThai & ElefantaPrice: Expensive• Thai• Cancún•4.7
