    Food was great! Service and ambiance were also outstanding. The homemade tortillas were also a…read morereally great compliment to the meal. Arrived for late brunch and easily found a table although it was during a weekday. Definitely recommend.

    Whoa, this place is popular!…read more Hubbers and I are so glad we came through the exact time we did because if we waited ten minutes, we would have had to wait another 20. We were seated and given menus immediately so they're efficient with their time! Since I'm a first timer, I wanted to take my time with the menu. While waiting, they gave us complimentary chips with 2 kinds of bean dips, pico de gallo and red sauce: all very tasty! We've had to ask for a second serving! I've had huevos motulenos a few times, so I wanted the other version: huevos divorciados de la chaya maya. (Fine, I'll admit, I got it because I thought it was funny.) All I asked is if it was spicy (it's not) and that's all I know about the dish. So it was almost like a surprise dish for me. HUEVOS DIVORCIADOS DE LA CHAYA MAYA: I left it up to Hubbers to pick which ones I might like. He chose relleno negro and pipian - and he chose well! Broke the sunny side up yolk and mixed it in the relleno negro, added with the crispy texture of the chips: YUM. Did the same for the pipian, with its nutty flavor and creamy texture. Even the pumpkin seeds added taste. Sooooo goood! I made sure to empty that plate. LOS 3 MOSQUETEROS YUCATECOS: Hubbers' choice. This is a pretty plate! I got to try the pureed plantain (a first for me!) and that was tasty! Had a teenee taste each of the three dishes and also delicious. FOOD: 5. SERVICE: 4. VALUE: 4. PARKING: I didn't notice any parking lots, so can't comment on that, but there is street parking. Could be a challenge. OVERALL: 4.50 (bumped it up a little.) And the cherry on top: there's a lady making fresh tortillas. And they are delish! A crowd formed outside waiting for seating. I truly understand why. They really are popular! An amazing first run! Highly recommending!

Some of the things we had were shrimp cocktail, fresh oysters, Rockefeller oysters, pasta Alfredo, grilled octopus, salmon carpaccio, crab claws.

I was served the wrong dish, and when I politely brought it to the waiter's attention, I was told there was nothing that could be done and that I still had to pay for it. The meal was boxed up for me without offering a replacement or any solution. When it came time to pay, the credit card machine was handed to my husband for the tip, which felt awkward and dismissive given the situation. The food itself was also underwhelming. I asked about adjusting the seasoning and was told it wasn't possible. The flavors were not what I expected, and having eaten at restaurants all over the world, this meal fell well below that standard. For a restaurant that presents itself as service-oriented and welcoming, especially to visitors, this experience was surprising and disappointing. En Espanol Estoy realmente decepcionada por mi experiencia aquí, especialmente porque este ha sido uno de mis restaurantes favoritos en Mérida. Me sirvieron un platillo incorrecto y, cuando se lo mencioné amablemente al mesero, me dijeron que no había nada que se pudiera hacer y que aun así tenía que pagarlo. El platillo fue empacado para llevar sin ofrecerme un reemplazo ni alguna solución. Al momento de pagar, la terminal para dejar propina fue entregada a mi esposo, lo cual resultó incómodo y poco considerado dadas las circunstancias. La comida tampoco cumplió con mis expectativas. Pregunté si era posible ajustar el sazón y me dijeron que no. Los sabores no eran los que esperaba y, habiendo comido en muchos lugares del mundo, este platillo estuvo muy por debajo de ese nivel. Para un restaurante que se presenta como orientado al buen servicio y hospitalidad, especialmente hacia los visitantes, esta experiencia fue inesperada y decepcionante.
