Maki Taco is Osaki Taco!!!
My friends and I were sitting down when Roberto, the hardest working man(ager) at the Oasis (who speaks perfect English, Spanish, Ebonics, slang, and a host of other languages : 0), approached us about the Maki Taco. I was hesitant because you would never have to worry about gaining weight at this all inclusive resort. Moreover, I never heard of combining Mexican and Japanese cuisine while living in Texas, the land of Tex-Mex and Mexican food. Nevertheless, after Roberto informed us that his restaurant was #1 on TripAdvisor, the foodie in me took over and I was sold. I subsequently convinced my friends to come and booooooy, are we glad we did!!! This experience raised my score of the Oasis.First, Roberto made us ladies a “women’s” drink and made the gentlemen a “men’s” drink with a shot of Hypnotic on the side, lol. They were sooooo smooth! And this was a lot to be said because the drinks at the Oasis sucked. Quite frankly I had always experienced good liquor in Mexico until I came to this resort. Nevertheless, we ordered the sensational sushi, the seasoned salmon with voila vegetables, the splendid spring rolls, and the celestial cilantro tempting tempura. EVERYTHING was AMAZING!P.S. Maki Taco really deserves a 4 because the restaurant does not have air and it was hot. However, Roberto, the staff, the cuisine, and the drinks made us forget it was hot until we got up to leave, lol. Quite frankly, I am shocked beyond belief that Roberto still works there, Oasis better be paying him well because he is the best of the best and I have been all over the world dining (London, Italy, France, Canada, Germany, Denmark, Caribbean, and many more). Outstanding cuisine, service, and ambience (other than the air)!
