    Wow, where to start…read more.... Well, if you find yourself lucky enough to be visiting Yucatán you have to stop at this restaurant located in the sleepy town of Tixkokob located approximately 15-20 minutes outside of Merida. Yeah it's a bit out of the way but if you want the best cochinita pibil in the state, dare I say- the country of Mexico- this is the spot. Sure there are other spots in or near Merida but hands down this was my favorite. We were heading back to Merida from a day trip to the town of Isamal and had planned our early super to be here. The restaurant itself is a jewel located in the town and once you walk into the restaurant you feel as if this restaurant can be in any major metropolis with vast quantities of 5 star restaurants. The restaurant is beautifully decorated both inside and outside- if you have a chance take a walk around the outer patio and see where the ovens are located where they made your meal. Now the food! Well let me say that if I could have eaten the metal tray that the order of cochinita pibil came on I would have done so! The pork was very flavorful and moist and the consome (broth) which is from the pig itself was so delicious. Fresh corn tortillas come with the order as well. I didn't want this experience to end but there is only so much goodness one can handle. We also had the guacamole and the mofongo to start and share. These were also tasty. All around the service (as with every other place we visited in Yucatán) was top notch with the friendliest of people. The hostess also gave us a tour of the grounds and explained the history of the location. Side note: as we finished our meal and we're preparing to leave the Mexican singer, Yuri, showed up with her entourage. :)

    Wasn't expecting such a fancy place. Bf is a huge food watching his YouTube channels and found this…read moreamazing spot. Everything is made frEsh sO you need a reservation.

    This restaurant is inside of a hotel atrium. Pretty decent menu, however the service is very slow…read morebased on my standards. This is a tourist stop, with busses stopping right across the street. Of course, while you wait to have your order taken or your food to come out, the drinks are flowing. No problem with that service. When I got my food, it was pretty good, but a little expensive. I enjoyed the tortilla chips and salsa. The house made guacamole was delicious, though.

    Stopped in late April 2024 during our Chichen Itza tour with our guide Luigi and we all were very…read moreimpressed with our lunch here. It's a traditional colonial style Spanish building with an open atrium in the middle complete with a running fountain directly in the center. They are well known for their brunch, but we stopped in for the lunch service. It was quite crowded when we got there, but we were able to be seated right when we arrived. They have a fairly large menu filled with all sorts of Mexican dishes, all the ones that we tried fantastic. I chose the chicken pool because it was the only new one for me. Was raised in San Diego and live in Los Angeles so most of the dishes on the menu I can find back at home but the pinup was a new one for me and I really loved it. The restaurant location is very walkable and is in the outer ring of the city center aka Plaza de Armas. Is easy to walk to the farmers market in the center courtyard or to one of the other many shops close by. I would definitely recommend to anyone to stop here when visiting Valladolid and I will definitely be back next time I am in the area.

Chef Arturo has done a great job integrating local and traditional ingredients, spices and techniques into very interesting dishes. Check out the wine list for some very nice wines. Service is very friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. Servers Carlos (dinner) and Jocelyn (breakfast and lunch) were great. They were very helpful with our limited Spanish. Given the US dollar exchange rate, the prices were extremely reasonable. The setting is beautiful. Check out the pictures on the hotel website. https://www.marriott.com/hotels/hotel-information/restaurant/cpehl-hacienda-puerta-campeche-a-luxury-collection-hotel-campeche/ The added benefit is that the restaurant was never crowded. This place is comparable to the best restaurants in Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, or anywhere. We tried other places in Campeche and they cannot compare.; If you are looking for a unique gastronomic experience give it a try.

    This place is a hidden jewel. Attention to detail from the venue to the menu is apparent. Chef,…read moreservers & hotel staff go out of their way to please.

    This is an excellent place to stop on the way between Uxmal and Kabah or in the area. The food here…read morewas excellent, they were out of poc chuc sadly but we got cochinita pibil, pollo pibil, salbuches, the sopa de lima, and the vegetable soup. The pibil was excellent the chicken was moist and tender, the soups were flavorful and hearty, the vegetable soup especially feeling like a viable option for vegans and vegetarians rather than a compromise. We made extensive use of the foosball table during the wait which was worth it for the amazing food.

    Tasty Authentic Mayan Lunch in the village of Santa Elena - Close to Uxmal and the Ruta Puuc!…read more I visited Restaurant Chac-Mool for lunch on November 23rd with a friend, after touring the Uxmal Ruins and on my way to the Kabah Ruins. This local restaurant was located along Highway 261 (left hand side if coming from the Uxmal), between Uxmal and Kabah in the small and traditional Mayan village of Santa Elena. For those renting a car, like I did, there was a gravel area for parking across the highway (on the right hand side) from the restaurant. My friend and I were the only ones at the restaurant for lunch, which made for a cozy, peaceful and relaxing environment. We chose to sit on the second floor balcony, which had a nice view of the surrounding jungle. There was also seating inside on the main floor as well as outside on the ground level. The décor and look of the restaurant was very charming, colourful and unique. I ordered the pollo pibil with a side of guacamole and chips. The food was so delicious and everything tasted very fresh and authentic. While eating my meal, I kept hearing what sounded like chickens squawking from behind the restaurant and I couldn't help but wonder if that was where my meal came from. The restaurant serves a large variety of traditional Yucatecan, Mexican and Mayan dishes. The staff were so friendly, attentive, charming and warm and the service was excellent. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at this local, family-owned restaurant and would highly recommend it to anyone traveling to Uxmal and/or through the Ruta Puuc!
