Maki Mori

A contemporary nigiri bar in Playa del Carmen where fresh fish, premium cuts, and Japanese technique meet the energy of Quinta Avenida.

Maki Mori focuses its proposal on one of the purest expressions of Japanese cuisine: good fish treated with precision. Located between 38th and 40th Streets, it functions as a small nigiri bar where the counter allows you to closely observe the chefs’ work. The menu pays special attention to nigiri and sashimi, with cuts such as chu-toro, o-toro, salmon and eel, accompanied by donburi, crispy rice and its own creations. Sake and Japanese beers complete an experience clearly focused on Japan. The space is modern and relaxed, sufficiently cared for for a special dinner but without losing the proximity of a sushi bar. Sitting in front of the preparation makes the technique and the product a visible part of the experience. In a city where rolls tailored to tourist tastes are abundant, Maki Mori bets on giving prominence back to fish, rice and precision. A particularly interesting place to discover the more refined side of the Japanese scene in Playa del Carmen.
