Majestic Mirage Punta Cana FOOD REVIEW! It's All Inclusive! The Good & The Bad! (2023)

[@ka8204]

Nice video! Lots of good info. Now just so that I'm clear all the restaurants are included in the all inclusive rate?

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

Yes they are. All the restaurants are included with your all-inclusive base rate!! The only thing extra would be if you wanted to have a romantic dinner on the beach. That's not included. Thanks for watching and thanks for leaving a question! Cheers!

[@ka8204]

Thank you! Headed there next year for my 50th bday. Can’t wait!

Great review. All the foods looks really good. Great. Majestic Mirage

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

Thanks so much! Yes, most of the food at the Majestic was great, especially considering it's an all-inclusive resort! Thanks for watching!

[@sharonsweeney2301]

You two are too cute! Thanks for the post. Do they have a coffee shop with iced coffee ?

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

Our pleasure! Good question on the iced coffee.....not sure if it's on the menu but if you ask them, they will do it for you, I am sure. Just use google translate if needed! Thanks for watching and if you're going there, have a great trip! ( ps currently parts of the Mirage are being remodeled but it should re-open soon!)

[@musicnature007]

Wowww อาหารน่าทานมาก Big Like. See you again 💕

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

Hey thanks! Appreciate your support! Glad you liked it!

[@welinabasuelvlog1856]

The foods looks so good nice ambiance enjoy ma'am &sir

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

It is a lovely resort and overall, the food was great with a lot of choices!

[@IamaDutch-Kiwi]

What a fabulous holiday. The food looked amazing, the cocktails not to be missed. I'm a seafood fan so would thoroughly do my best at that buffet. It's always good te hear about to good and also the less enjoyable experiences. What a lovely time you had. 💖🙏🇳🇿🙋‍♀🇳🇱

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

It is a wonderful place to visit! The best part was that it gave us time to spend with friends and family. Thanks for watching and have a great rest of the week!

[@honesty5964]

Feb. 2023 - The hibachi and steak restaurants were totally fabulous for us. My husband and foodie son thought their steaks were the best. I am vegetarian, and both restaurants were accommodating. Service was excellent!!

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

We agree! Service is excellent, and we found that 99% of our food was delicious too! Glad to hear you had a great experience! We would go back in a heartbeat! Thanks for watching!

[@TravelingTramps]

Sad the first days fare wasn't up to expectations. Wonderful breakfast buffet! Shame again about the steaks. Would have loved the French and Italian! Thanks for the great review.

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

Overall, for an all-inclusive the food was fine. And the best part is if you don't like your dinner, you can just walk over to the next restaurant. Thanks for watching!

[@MrHwayounglee]

thanks so much for your vedio !!! It was really helpful.We are going to Majestic Mirage next week Feb 5th. I try to reserve dinner restaurants ahead . What time zone would be great? If possible , I want to attend some night shows well. but I do not know show time schedule.

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

Hello, glad to hear that you found the video useful! The time zone in punta Cana is Atlantic standard Time. The nightly shows in the theater begin at 8:00 p.m. each night, If I remember correctly. They have a board outside of the main buffet which lists activities and times of shows. Hope you have a great time and thanks for watching!!

[@hwtours]

That’s a lot of eating. Good to see the meals improved as time went by. I was surprised to hear the Argentine steaks were tough. They are normally top notch.

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

Yes, last time we were there 5 years ago the steaks melted in our mouths. I bet the steaks we had this time were not from Argentina! Imposter steaks! Thanks for watching and hope you have a great weekend!

[@ruthiefiggy5007]

Were all the restaurants and buffet you mentioned Adult only? Thank you for your great video.

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

The only place that I know that was adult only for sure was the place that we had breakfast right by the beach. The buffet and restaurants allowed children but to be honest there weren't that many children there so it was not an issue. Thanks for watching!

[@captainover-tighten6729]

Hi. Thanks for the video. I have a question. We just returned from Mexico, (4.5 star resort) the weather was hot and dry, shame about the seaweed but wasn't a game changer. The food! The staff and the presentation was excellent but I must have a sensitive palate because all I could taste was the oil the food was cooked with. I went and asked and found out it was canola oil. Shame because (not that I wanted to subsist on fried only foods) I couldn't even have a fried egg. Gave up on the a la carte restaurants (where you make reservations and you still wait half an hour. The olive garden is faster) I stuck with boiled eggs, rolls (bread was amazing) yogurt and cereals for breakfasts. Lunch and supper were roasted foods, veggies etc. I experienced the same issue in the Dominican (4 star) where the food all tasted the same. We did stay at another resort in Cancun (delayed flight home) where the food was simply outstanding. Didn't taste any canola oil at all. If anyone has had a similar experience I would love to hear - and what solutions you found. Thanks.

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

At the Mirage most of the food had good flavor and we did not taste the oil. But we are not super sensitive to food in general and will enjoy most of what is given to us in general! (unless it's tough like in the steak house). Thanks for watching and hope your next resort has food more to your liking!

[@user-ol9yg4br4u]

Hello was wondering is it allowed to eat a snack on a balinese bed? Bc it seems the beach bars are drinks only so idk if there's a way to ask for a snack on the beach or it is forbidden

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

That is a good question. If you have a swim out room which comes with the pool beds we did see people eating there. But not at the non-swim out beds. I think I even saw a sign that discouraged eating at the pool. The only service at the beach and at the pools was for drinks, not for food. But if you are a club member you can go into the club lounge, which has food and snacks, there are tables inside to eat and also a few tables outside near the pool and beach where you could eat. Hope that helps...thanks for watching and for asking a question!

[@badintentions627]

Been to colonial 3 times and doesn’t disappoint.

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

We agree...you can't go wrong with any of their 3 resorts in Punta Cana! Thanks for watching!

[@TrinhNguyen-tq1ud]

We will be there 😂😂😂next year,,thanks 😂😂

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

Something to look forward to!!! Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoy your trip when the time comes. Cheers!

[@michaelgraham7529]

The burger was no were near undercooked, it looked beautiful.

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

Yikes! Yes, if you like rare it was perfect! Overall, most of the food was great and we would go back! Thanks for watching!

[@Kev3981]

I know prices may vary, but how much did you pay for dinner on the beach ?

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

It was about $140 for a couple.

Hi we’re thinking of coming from the UK, overall would you recommend the hotel and the food especially?

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

Overall, yes we would recommend the hotel and the hotel food. I would say 90% of our food was excellent. The staff are great and the room we would suggest is the standard suite room, not the rooftop room. The standard suite room gives you two full rooms which is great. Now the majestic mirage is a little bit on the quiet side so it's not the place where you going to have a lot of loud parties. Which if you're looking for a resort to relax and enjoy the beach and take it easy, it's the perfect place. Hope you have a great time and thanks for watching

[@keithkirk842]

The foods included with the resort.

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

Yes, the food shown is included at the resort! Thanks for watching and for the question!

[@keithkirk842]

Thank im going this weekend to the Majestic Punta Cana for a few days.

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

@@keithkirk842 Nice...have a great time! And don't forget you can walk over to the Colonial for the late night snack shop, the casino, and the disco!

[@luisattack]

Notice any gluten free / vegan options?

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

There was always non-meat/non-seafood opinions but not many, and did not see any items that were labeled gluten free. We are heading to their third resort in August (The Majestic Elegance) and I will take a look more closely for you. Thanks for watching!

[@heathermckinnon1865]

If not doing the hibachi tables, can you just walk in?

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

Yes you can just walk in for the non hibachi tables and I think what they serve there is sushi. We've never sat at the non hibachi tables however

[@lannguyen-pu1db]

Why does the lobster have claw? Why not langoustinas, the clawless Caribbean lobster?

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

That's a good question and I don't know the answer to that. Every time we've been here on and off over the last 15 years it always had a claw!! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. If I ever find out what the answer is I'll let you know!

[@ItzLays]

i going to majestic hotel in punta cana in july

Hey, that's great. I wish we were going with you. It's a fantastic spot. Enjoy and thanks for watching!

[@marinapitombeira2845]

We booked our vacation for February and we are so scared of food poisoning. There are a good amount of reviews saying terrible thing about the food. Did any of you get sick?

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

We have been to the Majestic Resorts in Punta Cana 3 times (twice to the Mirage and once to the Elegance) often with groups of people, and no one got sick from the food! But we do follow some precautions. We only eat cooked food and the inside of fruit. So no salads! No sushi! We use bottled water in the rooms even to brush our teeth. (we do drink the tap water in the restaurants since supposedly it is filtered but you can ask for bottled water there too). We also take chewable Pepto-Bismol tables (2 twice a day) since that can reduce the chance of traveler's diarrhea. (check with your doctor to see if you can do that too). Following these precautions, we had no food related illness! Hope you have a great time in February. If you remember, post back a follow up when you return! Thanks for watching and for asking a question! Cheers!

[@_musiclover_]

Stay away from unpeeled fruits such as apples, and uncooked veggies that can’t be or aren’t peeled, such as lettuce or tomato. Don’t overdo your eating or drinking. Do NOT drink tap water in your room, or even brush your teeth with it. Avoid raw fish and raw seafood. I got these tips from a video on here about what not to eat or drink in Punta Cana.

[@_musiclover_]

I mean the Dominican Republic, not Punta Cana.

[@daisyfernandez4993]

THERE WS NO SEAFOOD BUFFET NO SHIMP, LOBSTR, CRAB, OSTERS,HOW MUCH DID YOU PAY GOING TO THE OTHR RESTAURANTS OT THE BUFFET

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

There is no extra charge to go to any of the restaurants. The cost of all the restaurants is included in the price you pay to stay at the resort.

[@lannguyen-pu1db]

Maybe resort for Americans who can eat no other foods than their own? Basically steak, hamburger, egg, mayo, ketchup?

[@peterreher632]

When I go off vacation I want the dress casual. I am not interested in dressing up for a restaurant

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

I hear you .... For most of the restaurants there you can wear shorts and a collard shirt which is not too bad! Thanks for watching and thanks for leaving a comment. Cheers!

[@lisabryan9050]

Elegant resort attire for the women would consist of what? Dresses only or would nice pant suits or slacks and a nice blouse suffice. Seems if you're on vacation, you would want to be comfortable instead of wearing a dress to dinner every night.

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

Any of those choices would be fine! Most women had sun dresses on at night. The resort just does not want to see guests at dinner in cut off shorts and T-shirts! Thanks for watching!

[@mommaniz786]

the Italian restaurant was not good . sorry. it was my least favorite I was there last week.

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

Hey actually good to know your feedback. We're actually over at the majesta colonial right now because I wanted to see how this place compares to the mirage and the Elegance since it's the least expensive of all three. Thanks for watching. Thanks for leaving a comment. Cheers!

[@Footspongebobpeeta]

All of the food here is disgusting lol

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

LOL is right! Overall, food was very good and we just returned from their resort next door (Majestic Elegance) and the food was great! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!
