Very good spot for breakfast and they have really good smoothies . Food portions were on the smaller side but it was a nice full meal for us

Vanessa T

Beautiful space amongst nature. Only came for brunch but the food was delicious and service was top notch! We waited for about 15 minutes and the hostess took our drink orders while we waited.

Nicolas Belloni

Wide range of both Mexican and foreign dishes. Empañadas were great. And try the fried bananas with sour cream and cheese . Really nice atmosphere and staff .

Noah Weiss

Fantastic breakfast spot with outdoor seating and insane chillaquilles. Get a fresh squeezed gigantic juice , too.

Stephraaa

Beautiful restaurant set in an cute garden . At some point a monkey came swinging by in the trees above us. The food is amazing. A good place to try all kinds of mexican food . Super recommend!

Sandy

Get the fresh juice - any fresh juice . The pan dulce is great. Portion sizes are pretty dang big. I love sitting in the back for breakfast . Ambiance ????

Johan Dittlau

Great service! Carrot pound cake and banana pound cake after the breakfast was crown of the meal! I had chilaquiles and it was very generous portion which can be shared by two. All is very tasty.

Shaddawn Red

Had lovely dinner with so far best Margueritas in Playa del Carmen. All courses were delicious. Try tostada de atun, Chile rellenados con camarones and queso al horno, simply delicious.

Gui Seiz

This place is ridiculous! It's beautiful, the food is amazing, the staff is the nicest, and it doesn't break the bank . At all. We had enchiladas , guac ????, and mix your own smoothies . all recommended!

Sandro Di Simplicio

Great place to eat. Grilled cheese to start rocks, tuna is amazing in any forms. WiFi : 54321cueva

Everything that leaves the kitchen is perfect! We love mole , salads , guacamole , flan ... Everything! Our favorite restaurant in Playa del Carmen.

Natalie Freilich

Great spot, super cute with its turtles , streams, & foliage. Their sopa Azteca was awesome (one of my fave mexican soups ).

Shaddawn Red

Tostada de atun, chile rellenados and queso al horno are delicious. Tried also the chicken with chile sauce - it was perfect!

Gabriella Truhlar

Delicious breakfast , beautiful place and great service. We had the Motuleños and pechulle. Both very tasty with lots of flavor.

Tyler

SUPER fruit and yogurt ! less basic than it sounds. the "granola " is some ridiculous topping i want to bottle and take with me everywhere! also great coffee and typical mexican egg dishes done right.

Jorge Castro Illingworth

Very good breakfast place, amazing service and affordable . Be prepared to wait at least 30-40 minutes to get a table in high season, worth it!

Eugenia Palacios

Great mexican breakfast ! juices , chilaquiles , eggs . Is a must while in Playa. Arrive early, otherwise you will have to wait for a table.

Priscila de Alcântara

Beautiful atmosphere! It worth to wait in line . Staff is friendly . Food is great and the juices are amazing!

Kevin

Great drinks, and while the fish w/mole was a bit too sweet for me I respected how they made their own twists on Mexican food

Matt C

Not just for breakfast ! Dinner is amazing also. They have a great chocolate mole fish , enchiladas or pollo . Yum!

Abyss Dive Center

The BEST "chiles en nogada " in Playa del Carmen. A visual & gustatory delight! Vegetarian option also available.

Alexey

Amazing interior design , worth checking out! Also, good healthy options . However, service was super slow and food taste was somewhat underwhelming. 7/10.

Michal Subel

The best guacamole , pico de gallo and stuffed peppers around. Also super friendly staff .

Natasha Stoop

Everything! One of my favorite places! Service, food, staff and awesome setting. Love it!

Abyss Dive Center

Several choices of salsa to go with their yummy chilaquiles . Try the chipotle - great smoky flavor & a little heat.

Kika Najar

Amazing place, food and service! Chilaquiles are great, and the coffee . They have turtles ????

Abyss Dive Center

Their hand-made tortillas are delicious; and as a friend said "mole just like my mother makes". Breakfast , lunch or dinner - worth a visit

Matt C

Get the flan ! It's thick like a cheesecake and not sickly sweet like most flan . The caramel coating was light and delicious.

L J

All good, fresh home made local cuisine , tuna and toastana are excellent
