We came here and we order a medium well and the steak was burnt. The manager came out claiming I ordered it wrong and that thats how it was medium well. It was just golden on the outside... I didnt finish it. Someone recommended this place and now I know never to come back... Beware!!

My wife and I oftenly visit el "10" in Mexico City. Here we decided to try because of their "Seafood" and I think it was really good. We tried the calamari, the tuna and the octopus and the three of them were outstanding and good value. Very well located on the 5a avenida and it has always a very good... More

I got the skirt steak which Argentinean style, on the salty side which I like. We also had a shrimp pasta dish which was pretty good. On the pricer side which most place on 5th are.

I have been there two times in the last two months. The food is not bad but you will neither find the best seafood or the best meat in Playa. I won't even talk about the salads. The worst feature, by far, is the service. First of all, if you don't like being rushed and expedited so that they can... More

The best part about this restaurant from the other 10's I've been is that they have seafood. We ordered pasta with salmon and squid steak. Everything was very tasty and beautifuly served. The service was kinda slow but you are at the beach so you have to be patient and relax. Beautiful place and great location. Awesome for lunch or... More

Nice place to eat in the 5th Av. We were there in 6pm for early dinner and all the tables were full. Service was a bit slow and the fries arrived way before the food but the steak was worth the wait.

Generous portions of delicious food at reasonable prices and good service. Fun to people watch on 5th avenue while you enjoy al fresco dining. Well worth repeat visits.
