Cancun, Quintana Roo — OpenTable has released its list of the Top 25 Hotel Restaurants in Mexico for 2026, with five establishments in Quintana Roo earning spots for their culinary offerings within resort complexes.

The platform noted that gastronomy has become a key factor for Mexican travelers. According to OpenTable, 59% of travelers consider a destination’s culinary offerings when choosing a trip, while 66% have booked a hotel specifically because of its restaurant.

The selection highlights restaurants that combine local identity, culinary quality, and experiences tied to their locations, OpenTable said.

The five Quintana Roo restaurants on the list are:

  • Gustino Italian Grill — JW Marriott Cancun Resort & Spa
  • Ha’ — Hotel Xcaret México
  • KENGAI — Conrad Tulum Riviera Maya
  • Maria Dolores — ATELIER Playa Mujeres
  • Toro — The St. Regis Kanai Resort, Riviera Maya

OpenTable also announced the evolution of Concierge, an AI-powered tool designed to help users discover and book tables. The company said travelers in 2026 are increasingly building itineraries around dining experiences, a trend that has boosted visits to hotel restaurants.

OpenTable, a global restaurant technology leader and part of Booking Holdings, helps more than 65,000 restaurants worldwide fill 1.9 billion seats annually.
