There was a fountain in the middle, and we had our own cozy round table that was semi-enclosed and very nice and romantic. It was formal dining, but in Cancun, nobody really dresses up.

Now, the food was even better. My wife got a juicy filet, while I had the lobster. Pricey, sure, but absolutely delicious. Oh, by the way, they have the best fresh bread too, especially the onion bread--mmm, good!

I only went there once but would like to go back there again. It was great for fine dining or a romantic occasion.

The only negative maybe is that there are no views of the sea.

The settings were welcoming as was the environment. Yes, there is romance here and yes, we were greeted gracefully. So what's the problem you ask? The service wasn't great at all. After placing our order, we waited for what seemed like an eternity for the food, starting with the appetizer. The intro, or pre-appetizer, which usually consists of breads and/or crackers, were dry and seemed to be from that morning. The salad didn't seem to be fresh but maybe was sitting outside of the fridge, and the main course wasn't something to brag about being bland and unimpressive in taste! I, as usual, had my seafood and my wife did as well. In addition, we waited over 30 minutes for our check.

I really wish I could brag about this place, but I can't and it would definitely be misleading to you if I did! Maybe at one time, when customers mattered, they were phenomenal. But not this time. I had some bad news to tell my friends when I got back home. There seems to be alot of competition growing between restaurants and Bogart's is falling through the cracks.

Maybe what once was isn't any longer.
