Probably the best food I've ever had outside of some outrageously expensive tasting menu experiences. Went here 5 times in 4 days. Breakfast, lunch, dinner all spectacular. If you needed another excuse to stay at artistas, this is it. This may be the thing I miss most when I get home.

We made a reservation at Kibi Kibi for our last dinner at Xcaret Arte. Our waiter was so kind and knowledgeable about all the food. The lasagna was incredible and the date and walnut cake for dessert was unlike anything I’ve ever had before. We loved it so much we came back the next morning for our last breakfast! Highly recommend.

I have gone to kibi kibi for a few days now for breakfast and dinner once. Overall for a all inclusive restaurant, it is really not bad, but definitely is not fantastic. I had the omelete as shown in the picture. That was overall delicious. It has a nice shaped omelete with pork belly on top match with green bean puree. For dinner I felt it was a bit lacking. The cheese lobster dish I could not recognize it was a lobster dish as I could not see or taste any lobster in it. The ribeye came pre sliced. It is not bad, but it is not fantastic either. In the breakfast the server bring a box of pastry and I had a few of those and those were great. Service is great. On the decor, it is nice but I found it is kind of humid and a bit warm.

Kibi-kibi is a restaurant specially reserved for those staying at Casa de Los Artistas. We had breakfast and dinner. It was never crowded with a basket of pasties with breakfast and pitas with hummus for dinner. The bartender even learned how to make a virgin lava flow for us! Attend staff and great twist on traditional Mexican food.
