Had a delicious lunch here! $50 USD for 2 people, including guacamole , roasted tomatoes , 3 fish tacos , a beer + a margarita . A little pricey but on par w/ everything else, it seems.
Breakfast comes with a chunky apricot and pear jam . Eggs in casserole was delicious and soupy dish. Chilaquiles (nachos with eggs , cheese and tomato sauce ) was great too. Under 200 for 2 w/coffee.
Really great restaurant . Second fave to Hartwood but much more chill , ate twice in one week. Avocado soup , pork , chicken , shrimp were highlights. Nice bar too so go early.
For something other than the usual tacos ,nachos,guac this is a MUST TRY.Stuffed jalapeños ,red chicken & pork in pibil sauce all taste sensations. Cucumber margarita a refreshing addition to the meal!
Ask wait staff what their faves are, especially wines . They know their pairings-- I had a white with pork pibil that was life changing. Chupa chups for dessert ! GREAT GARDEN to get drunkenly lost in.
Peppers stuffed with chicken are amazing. Everything was really good except the ceviche . The fish wasn't fresh.
fave resto in tulum. everything is to die for but pollo rojo and spare ribs in green sauce are what i return for - over and over again!
Breakfast from 9am.The mamas make fresh marmalade from left over fruits which is served with fresh toasted bread.Devine!Eggs in casserole a good local Mexican brekky option.
Excellent pork pibil . Barbera red wine from Cabo is great and good value too. Amazing design details hidden throughout. One of my favourites in Tulum!
Came back for lunch - the chalkboard menu was no less overwhelming, as was the red-eye iced coffee (needed post drive from Punta Allen-unpaved jungle road . Do Veggie Tamales & Mint-Avocado on hot days!
Delicious food and friendly staff . Meatballs were fantastic as was pork pibil . Take the mossie repellent as they'll drive you mad!
Had lunch here. It's not by the water but food is great. Try lavender shrimp , guacamole salad and tacos
The stuffed jalapenos and habanero shrimp in butter are amazing. Jair makes a great Mezcal margarita .
start with the stuffed jalapenos . the mole sauce is perfect. the red chicken is good, spicy and hearty. oh, and do a few shots of tequila .
come here everytime i am here! THE MUSTS: Red Chicken , Grouper with Pumpkin Seeds , Poblano Crepes + Stuffed Poblanos (has pork in it - which i dont eat but my friends LOVE IT!)
Cute restaurant but wear bug spray. Try the stuffed jalapeños ! The pear and cheese tower is also very good.
Lots of great vegetarian options , tasty cocktails , romantic vibe . Was a bit of a wait when we went.
Had a great lunch there. Vegetable Tamales are delicious and the house margarita comes with a spicy black salt rim!
Excellent pumpkin seed fish and coconut prawns - although not moderately cheap as suggested!!
Sooo delicious. Our cab driver recommended it and he was right. If you don't want to get in line at Hartwood , just walk in here.
Feels like watching someone cooking for you in their own kitchen. Relaxed pace with good food and well-made cocktails .
best pure Mexican place we went to in Tulum. don't miss this place or the stuffed jalapeno app.
Update: the size of the restaurant expanded but the quality of the food did not change. A must-try in Tulum along with Hartwood and Cenzontle.
Great cocktails but beware of mosquito hour around 6. Wear bug spray! Live music is a nice touch here.
Best meal so far!!!! Coconut rice and shrimp were incredible. Nice service!!!
My favorite Mexican in Tulum. Get the guacamole salad and the red chicken .
Best place to eat in all of Tulum. Great cocktails , great food. Try the red chicken .
Shrimps with garlic and guajillo peppers were incredible.
Lavender Shrimp super tasty...red chicken...awesome. Excellent staff .
Good service . The tortilla soup is a must!
Good food but too quick in serving. Food came before the drinks and in 15 minutes the dinner was finished..
Great place for a late night cocktail once the restaurants close down.
get the stuffed jalepeños????
Amazing homemade jam .
Don’t go! Overpriced food, that doesn’t event taste good, bad service, too. We got food we didn’t even order and got charged for it. Then we were asked if we would like to add a tip to our bill. Wtf?!
Chicken with jalapenos . Apply insect repellent.
The only really good thing was the band
Horrible service and food was avg to below avg. the only thing that was good was the habanero salsa . The waitress was alone, sweating, running around. My son had to find napkins, forks, & expensive :(
A foodie choice in Tulum
Seafood with fantastic service
Nice ambience but service was super slow even by relaxed Mexican standards
Looks cool, but entrees and service blows. We were advised to skip it, wish we did.
Really good for a simple breakfast ! $130MXN per person
Best mole !
Mexican hippies? Its like hampton beach wuth a tan !
Good food but a lot of mosquito. Don't forget your stuff.
Eh. Just eh.
Don't forget your Anti mosquito.
Кажется, что работникам дали задание принести из дома, все, что есть - кофейные кружки , бабушкин утюг - так и собрали бар:) Но выглядит круто - Huevos a la cazuela is a must! Perfect for after-party)
Restaurant très sympa, avec des plats variés affichés au mur. Large choix dans les vins y compris certains "organic". Prix raisonnables et serveurs sympa.
I was there with my GF. Really nice place. Couldn't make it to the dinner but the cocktails were really nice. Also the design is great. - Cem Oz
Only had drinks and they were delicious. The staff was lovely. And the atmosphere was perfection - Katie Berger Folmar
This might be some of the best Italian food you will have. Expect to pay a bit more for a great dinner. Also, the design of this place incredible - Eric Gelinas
