I've been to Acapulco many times and lots of restaurants. This one is my favorite. Just really unique and a great view. The food is a good as the view and the staff is really friendly.

I have been to Zibu on two occasions and both were great. Although the second time around a sudden rain coughs us mid dinner the waiters were very efficient to assign us to another table. The food is a fusion between Thai and Mexican food so you can expect to find delicious and unexpected flavors. Of all things I ordered... More

Zibu offers a superb array of Thai Mex fusion food which tastes divine and with which the only problem is deciding what on the menu to choose. The service is outstanding, the restaurant is beautiful and the views over Acapulco bay are special. Book early to avoid disappointment as Zibu is without doubt amongst the very best that Acapulco has... More

Very intimate restaurant in Acapulco. Few tables, and a lot of servers, so you get pampered at all times. The food was excellent. Well presented, excellent tasting. The drinks were good as well. The view of the bay is good as well. The only reason I didn't give them the fifth star is because there was a dog in the... More

Decor and view are outstanding - like a movie set! On the expensive side but quality and value are worth it. Treat yourself!

Zibu's view is spectacular. Get there early for the sunset and you will also be one of the few diners there. As Americans, we ate much earlier than the locals and enjoyed great service. Try the Cucumber Margarita with the cayenne salt, it was unique and delicious. The presentation of the food was creative and utilized coconut shells and the... More

We have been eating at this restaurant since its beginning and it still ranks at the top. The food is delicious, the setting is spectacular and there is a dessert on the menu that is one of the best ever. When we take friends there we always order one for the table and have them guess what is covering the... More

A well deserved #1 on the TA ranking for Acapulco. The location and the setting are fantastic, the service is outstandig, a truly first class experience. The food is good but it probably needs some work on the presentation, the kitchen should do better in order to make Zibu a one of a kind experience. The wine list is a... More

Eating out of doors......with Acapulco's fabulous weather. The waiters are all friendly, and the atmosphere is special. It's an evening to remember whilst my friends and neighbours are freezing in Niagara Falls, Canada.
