About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Neighbourhood gem
Punta Corcho takes its name from the old title of what we now know as Puerto Morelos, in the Riviera Maya. Founded in 2015 by chef Daniel Ovadía, it became his first project in the region, bringing a passion for fresh and creative cuisine that pays homage to the culinary richness of the Caribbean.
The menu offers a vibrant reinterpretation of seafood flavors, highlighted by the use of artisanal methods that add a unique smoky touch to each dish. The chefs have created a perfect balance between tradition and innovation, transforming local and sustainable ingredients into unique sensory experiences. Each creation at Punta Corcho is a tribute to both Caribbean classics and culinary avant-garde, making the restaurant a regional benchmark now recognized internationally with a Michelin Guide Bib Gourmand.
Inside Punta Corcho, "Fisherman’s" offers innovative cocktails with fermentation, maceration, and marine infusion techniques, elevating the dining experience.

    Beautiful setting overlooking the town square and ocean. Food was tasty and inventive. Asian Mex flair. Service was outstanding. There’s a speakeasy which we didn’t hit but will try next time.

    Siamo stati molto bene sia in termini di servizio che di cibo, leggermente spinti nei tempi per il fatto che ci siamo seduti alle 21 anche se era un orario disponibile nella prenotazione. Purtroppo un inconveniente nello scontrino finale ha leggermente spento il romanticismo e non abbiamo proseguito l esperienza che tanto avremmo voluto fare nello speakeasy cocktail bar che hanno a fianco.
