" I was quite disappointed. The food was undercooked and bland. I had a terrible experience with service when my order took forever to arrive and my server didn’t seem to care. The atmosphere was lively, which was the only positive aspect. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend this place based on my visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is a gem! The outdoor seating is so lovely, especially during sunset. The tabbouleh was fresh and zesty, the perfect starter. For mains, the lamb kebab was juicy and packed with flavor. The staff were attentive but not overbearing. We ended our meal with baklava, which was delightful. I can't wait to return to try more dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" I cannot recommend this place enough! As someone who has traveled to the Middle East, I can attest to the authenticity of their dishes. The baba ganoush is a must-try! The service was exceptional, with a very personable waiter who engaged with us throughout the meal. The decor adds a lovely touch to the experience. I will be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" As a vegetarian, I loved the numerous options at Tahini. The mezze selection was diverse and fresh, which made it difficult to choose! I went for the fattoush salad and grape leaves, both of which exceeded my expectations. The service was attentive, and I appreciated how they checked in to ensure everything was to my satisfaction. I’ll definitely return for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was one of the better dining options we've found in Playa! The appetizers were a delightful start, especially the muhammara, and the mains did not disappoint either. My husband had the kofta kebab, which he said was juicy and savory. The service was friendly, and we appreciated the care taken in presenting our dishes. I would happily return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I loved the atmosphere here! It felt cozy, and the outdoor seating was one of the best parts of our visit. We ordered several dishes to share, including the kebabs and salads. While some flavors were strong and authentic, others felt lacking. Portions were reasonable but could be more generous for the price. Still, we had a good time overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tahini's location is fantastic! Just a few steps off the main strip yet still retains an intimate setting. We shared the vegetarian platter and the flavors were stunning. Each item had a unique taste and the presentation was appealing. The serving staff were accommodating. It's a fantastic place for anyone seeking authentic food in Playa del Carmen. " (*Curated Review*)
