Really nice food! Good portion sizes and very tasty. Recommend the garlic prawns and rice. Stopped here whilst waiting for the bus to Tulum, friendly and helpful waiter as well.

Nice small restaurant near Parque Los Fundadoras. Nice decor. Food and service good. Pretty expensive.

The coconut shrimp is next level. So any of my coconut shrimp lovers out there stop by when you’re at Playa del Carmen. The fish tacos and my wife’s chicken enchiladas were also fire!!!!!

As a yearly traveler to playa, this is one of my favorite places. Best food for good price

Amazing food, freshly cooked and very generous portions. I had the chicken burrito (so tasty) and my fiancé had nachos with beef (best nachos he had). We were also served tortillas chips with a three dips, spicy, medium and mild. We’ve also had cocktails, Margarita and mojito both very nice. Service was very attentive and friendly. Atmosphere also very nice, quiet and pleasant Latino music in the background. And the staff will move the fan towards you which is a nice touch. Prices are great too! Definitely stop by for lunch or dinner if in the area

This is my favorite local restaurant in the Quintana Roo and Yucatan area. The best Conchinita Pibil. Really good chicken mole. Amazing chips n salsas. Great margaritas. The homeade flan was amazing. Nice staff. The theme of this restaurant is woman of the revolution. My full review will be up on tiktok annastravelsnyc or Instagram annastravelsnyc. Went back again. Always consistent. Yummy. Ordered tortilla soup

Really good food and amazing atmosphere. They were super accommodating to our large group with a reservation booked ahead

This was the best meal I have had since arriving. I had the stuffed poblano with chicken and rice and I almost licked the plate. The atmosphere was lovely and service so kind and attentive. An amazing value for such a wonderful experience.
