Tacos are amazing here. And we tried all different kinds from veggie to steak to octopus. Plus we had a lot of other stuff on the menu. Smoothies are great too.

If you need a breakfast spot in Tulum, Potheads is it. We landed here more than once because the…read morevibe is just RIGHT for the morning.. easy, sunny, unhurried. The smoothies and burritos hit, the mimosas do not hurt, and the coffee is exactly what you want before a day on the bikes. My favorite move is heading upstairs to the little bar that overlooks the street and people-watching while you sip. Friendly and laid-back, a great way to start the day. I particularly loved the juices.

We came here on a whim the first morning of our stay in Tulum. It was open early and had coffee…read more It's a cute , family operated cafe with a jungle-like seating area in the far back and an upstairs. They do light a mosquito repellent fog which is helpful. We arrived around 745a and no one else was around. Only some stragglers from the prior night still getting after it. We ordered two lattes with almond milk and two breakfast burritos. The one I had was really good, beautiful presentation for breakfast. The ratio of potatoes:eggs:bacon was a little off and it seemed like a little more potatoes than other stuff in my partners. Overall, though it was super convenient and they do have some really good specials for fish tacos and drinks later on in the afternoon. We only had one meal here during our stay so can't speak too much else. They did seem to be reasonably busy throughout the day when we would drive by though.

It's the go to spot for sports but I'd plan on eating before or not planning on getting full entrees. Portion sizes were meh, unseasoned and tortillas tasted old. Oh, they also tried to get us to pay for parking when it's advertised as free parking even after showing that we just ate.

Came here for dinner and it was delicious. We ordered:…read more Grilled Octopus: Great portion, fresh octopus, and well grilled. It didnt have any evidence of burnt. It was delicious! Fish tacos: fresh and delicious and quite tasty Chicken wing: delicious This place has multiple tvs broadcating games. Enjoyable. Also it has a beat up ping pong table with ping pong paddles, enough to entertain while the food is being prepared. Mateo is quite big, its got lots of tables and chairs to host multiple parties. I kinda like this place :)

Got a mix of al pastor and chicken, all of which came with many bags of salsa (red and green). General consensus was the al pastor was great, chicken was a bit dry and passable. Washed it down with some horchata (which was also fine). Skip if you don't eat pork, but 5 stars for the al pastor in terms of flavor and value.

I hardly drink and did not get even a baby buzz from the drink. The Margarita was OK. The service was OK. Each drink was $300 MXN or around $17 USD. Maybe I visited on an off day? There's plenty of other places in the area, this place would be a last resort.

Ok, so we're in Tulum and it's time to smash on our first dinner sesh. After walking around…read morechecking out what we fancy we settled for this spot. Welcome to La Malinche. Lets get to the food shall we. Chapulunes Tacos - Yes I like this stuff. I adore the preparation. The avocado doesn't really do much for the rest of the taco, but sauced up its a 6.8/10 Mushroom Taco - I couldn't stress enough about my partiality to vegan food. I adore the texture and the taste. I feel they put all the effort on this taco. 8.7/10 Al Pastor - It's nice and juicy. The the pineapples are present. Taste does fall a little short from the ones I've had before. 7.6/10 Service was pleasant. The ambiance was a total vibe. I would definitely recommend. If you ever make it to Tulum, do give this spot a proper go at it and let me know what you think. Hit that like and follow for more food and travel adventures by yours truly. Share this review with a smash mode buddy. And thank you so much for reading along.

I went out looking for another establishment, which I couldn't find. I searched Yelp and Google and…read morethey appeared promising so I stopped by. I parked next door in front of the store. But as I approached I was a little annoyed with the dogs and cats that appeared to be lingering around outside of their place. So I hesititantly came in anyway. (IM NO PET LOVER AND DONT LIKE EATING WITH ANIMALS NEAR MY FOOD! ) I ordered and my drinks and food came quickly. 2 HUGE dogs wandered in and started begging for food. A patron at another table decides to feed them. ***EYE ROLL*** Now the dogs are looking for everyone to feed them. Going table to table. I DO NOT PLAY WITH ANIMALS!!!! So I'm instantly irritated that I have to keep showing these dogs off while I'm trying to enjoy my meal. Loss of 2 stars for the dogs. The food was ok. Wouldn't probably return because the animals roam Free and I dont like that.

We were a walk in party of 15 the restaurant was pretty much empty at the time. The only thing is the kitchen is smaller than most so the food did take awhile which makes sense for a party of our size, but they were very accommodating. All the food and drinks were amazing. The pina colada was the only thing that people said was okay because it melted extremely fast and the texture was more icy than smooth and creamy.

The drinks were extremely sour (I got a margarita and an espresso martini and both were not good) and the food was overcooked and lack flavor (I got the shrimp tacos which were inedible). To add to this, the service was extremely slow. This dinner took 4 hours and it was terrible to leave hungry while spending a good amount. I would go elsewhere than come here.

The…read morestaff was amazing--genuinely friendly, incredibly attentive, and clearly passionate about what they're serving. You can tell they really know the food and love talking about it. One of the best parts of eating here is the feeling that you're right in the kitchen. The open-fire setup, the smells, the sound of everything cooking--it all makes the experience feel personal and relaxed, almost like you're hanging out with friends who just happen to be phenomenal chefs. I tried the tetelas and the short rib, and both were fantastic. The tetelas had that comforting, handmade feel with rich, local flavors. The short rib was ridiculously tender, full of smoky depth, and easily one of the highlights of the night. Kitchen Table's reopening feels like a win for Tulum. Great food, thoughtful staff, and an atmosphere that pulls you straight into the heart of local cooking--I'd go back in a heartbeat.

Great mixture of flavors! Chocolate ice cream - beautifully presented and some rich chocolate ice cream as well, and another dessert that I forgot. So maybe that one may be just okay LOL * drinks - Miami Nice (passionfruit) and a no name drink that the resto blends into a clear drink, served with a guava block. You take a piece of the guava block and leave it on your tongue, and sip your drink. Very very smooth! Would highly recommend this unknown drink. Michelin starred, reservations highly recommended. Better to come without heels since the flooring is made out of pebbles, dim lighting contributing to the dining experience, and fantastic service.

It was very intimate and perfect for couples but can definitely accommodate a large party. The cocktail I ordered was the Naked in Tulum which was mezcal based and tasted good, so much so that I ordered another one. The food we ordered included: the bone marrow, scallop crudo, Mayan octopus, suckling pig, and grilled sourdough. All were good. However the stand out for me was the Mayan octopus (highly recommend). For dessert we ordered the Marquesita which was not too sweet and a great finish to our meal. I can see why this place was on the Michelin guide. But be prepared to pay a pretty penny for your meal.
