We had a 8:00 reservation on a Wednesday night. The place was full so would definitely recommend reservations. We were seated in the outdoor courtyard which was nice on this cool December night. We started with drinks. My wife got an excellent cosmo and I got a glass of wine. They have a very complete mixed drink menu. I ordered the grouper with capers and my wife the filet with mushroom sauce. My fish was delicious. It was flash fried, a light crispy crust, and very moist. It was served over a bed of mixed vegetables. My wife loved her filet. Perfectly cooked with a lot of flavor. Our waiter Rueben was great and provided excellent service. We met the owner as we left and she was very friendly. Best meal in Progreso. read more

I dare you to find a better takeout experience then Humo Bistro in Progreso! My personal dinner tonight was excellent, carpaccio de calabaz appetizer, ensalada Caesar, linguine fra diavolo (jumbo shrimp!), and crumble de manzana w/ complimentary ice cream.. scrumptious delights! Oh, and did I mention the house margarita to go packaged in cute little 1/2 pint glass flask with a cork seal? Ja, perfecto! Not cheap, but not bad at under $800p and a gastronomic delight from start to finish read more

Tonight we dined at a small family restaurant in Progreso, YUC, called Humo Bistro. Address: Calle 66 128, Col. Ismael García, 97320 Progreso, Yucatán. I can say, with my right hand on my heart, that this is the BEST EVER Mexican restaurant! And we come to Mexico since 2009, and we have been into some prissy restaurants in Cancun, Pto. Vallarta, Cabo. NONE of them measured to this one! If you ever find yourself near Progreso, or on the Yucatecan Riviera, I cannot recommend a better choice for dinner! read more

Our second time at Humo, we enjoyed it better this time. We sat inside to avoid mosquitos. We brought our family and all the dishes and drinks were excellent. We had octopus, fish "a la talla", salmon and my mother in law had the fillet. Definitely a must when in Progreso. read more

The Best Steak House around, here in Progreso called Humo Bistro located on Calle 66 The restaurant is very nice with outdoor seating. We greeted by our very friendly waiter Javier, and he set us outside by a nice palm tree. For appetizers we had the steak tacos that were absolutely delicious. My wife ordered the New England clam chowder that came in a crispy bread bowl, it was delicious, Hot, with a lot of Clams, and the bread bowl is so good you can break off pieces and scoop up the delicious soup. I had the filet mignon with french fried potatoes asparagus with a black pepper sauce, it has to be one of the best steaks I have had in Yucatan in years, and the French fries or homemade with a lemon salt, the steak was to die for, and so is that pepper sauce this Chef really knows what he's or she is doing. We can't wait to go back, I took a look at the lasagna and that is what I want to have next time, I also saw the hamburger and that looked mouth watering. The Owner greated us to make sure everything was good , she's very nice. We also met the manager, she is so friendly with the biggest smile.

Muy rico!!! Affordable perfection. Staff, atmosphere, food is top quality. Vibe is classic, cozy, romantic, hip. In case you don't know much Spanish, Our waiter (Caesar) and manager (Juan or Jose?) both spoke English. First class service with warmth and smiles. Steak was excellent. Fresh fish was beautiful. Caramel cookie dessert was phenomenal. Apple crumble dessert was average, but the strawberry goat cheese ice cream with it fantastic. Cucumber water is complimentary and so refreshing. Pita and chimichurri is complimentary and very good. Will definitely be going back again during our stay. ! read more

Humo Bistro - Panorama of back patio and the indoor bar space. Kitchen on far right. - Steakhouses Near Me - Progreso, YUC

We ordered the $575 ribeyes last night and were more disappointed than you can imagine. The marbling was gristly and nearly impossible to cut. The meat was extremely hard to chew and less flavorful than one would expect at these prices. The ambiance was good and the service excellent but if we ever go back, I'll have the chicken. read more

We sat outdoors and the patio was gorgeous. Service is outstanding and the food was amazing. We had a great time!

Really great all the way around! My wife and I stopped in on a whim one Sunday at 5pm. They close at 6 on Sundays, but it wasn't a problem for the staff at all. This seems to be a converted home with a small swimming pool in the back. They have been open only one month but nailed it. Modern decor with great jazz playing in the background. Indoor seating available which is air conditioned, or outdoor seating in the small backyard. We ordered a mango margarita and a standard margarita and both were delicious. You can see the fresh fruit at their small bar. The complimentary 'house bread' with tapenade was really delicious- I could have eaten that all night, lol. We don't usually eat much, so we opted to share an appetizer and an entree, and the restaurant was glad to accommodate. Caprese salad: Chef used fresh arrúgala and arrúgala pesto in place of basil. Great twist! Hamburger: The two halves were plated separately for us and - here's the kicker - each plate was fogged under glass using a smoke device of some sort! (See photo.) The flavor was amazing! The burger could have easily stood on its own but the smoke completely kicked it up a notch! And it was fun to watch! (HUMO Bistro. Humo means smoke in Spanish as my wife pointed out later. Doh!) Dessert: Apple crumble. Good with an unknown sorbet(?) on top. The sorbet had almost no flavor on its own but it seemed to mysteriously bring out the tartness in the apples. Go figure. The sous chef (?) mentioned chemistry as part of their recipes beforehand and my wife said that this must be one of the things he was talking about. Cool! The wait staff was completely attentive and helpful at all times. I speak some Spanish, but when we couldn't communicate "medium well" to our server another server stepped in and translated. Nice! The owner Gila came to the table and we chatted for a while. She is a nice person and she said her husband is the chef and co-owner. Cost of the meal: $60OMX (before tip) for 3 cocktails, two bottled waters, one large appetizer, one entree (that was split for us) and one dessert. We felt pampered and lucky to have stumbled across this place. We will definitely be back! read more

I came here with my boyfriend and even though we didn't have reservations (although I do recommend) we had a great experience. We got the tacos for an appetizer which were delicious and I had the seared tuna. Highly recommend. My bf had the rib eye which I think was cleansed or smoked with Sage. Everything was perfect. We saved room for the creme brûlée . Our waiter was so attentive even though the table next to us was being way too needy. He was on it. I wish I remembered his name but he was great! read more

Creatively prepared seafood; impeccable yet welcoming service; a real wine list; all in a lovely, tranquil garden. IMO the best (only?) upscale restaurant in Progreso. read more

Wow. Absolutely delicious meal at Humo on Thanksgiving! Sat outside by the pool which was really lovely. Jorge, his wife and staff provided outstanding service. We started out with giant portions of tuna tartar and a dish made with provolone cheese that were excellent. Our large party had filets, rib eyes and NY Strips which were large and all devoured. I had the charbroiled octopus which was tender and delicious. The stuffed baked potato that came with the steaks was one of the best potato dishes I have ever had. The presentation was amazing with smoke pumped into the glass steak cover before serving. We had chocolate lava cake and creme brûlée for dessert which was very good. Five star meal all around. Jeff Bezos can't eat any better. Highly recommend this restaurant. read more
