I'd give it a higher price but the exchange rate in the dollar was a little off but can't blame them for wanting to make a few bucks more on the dollar and if you need a toilet they have it but no seat so ya know ... eagle time! Hope you haven't missed out on leg day! Lol I had a couple photos but not sure if I accidentally deleted them ugh

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.

If you're looking for authentic Mexican food with excellent service and a great atmosphere, I highly recommend El Fogón. We would definitely come back!

You can either drive there or walk and you won't miss it. It is on the main road and open to the road. The ambiance is great! This is the place for some authentic Mayan flavors. We asked the waiter for his favorites and he gave us some amazing recs. We had the grilled chicken, bbq pulled pork, and a vegan dip. Every single one of these dishes slapped hard. There was flavor, there was kick, and for a very good price. We highly recommend this place for all visitors! They do not take card as there is no internet connection so bring cash!

The food was super great at a great price. Service was excellent! Hubby had water. I had the homemade lemonade....so good!! I had sliced thin grilled chicken. Hubby thought he was ordering 1 taco and 1 cheese empanada. He didn't read well. It was 3 of each! They were all fab, and he ate them all! They have a tiny, tiny shop that sells a few things made by the indigenous locals. Hubby loved our tablecloth so much, we found an exact one like it there and bought it. Stop, eat, shop! Yummy!

There is a line inside if you placed a phone order. Got 2 coffees (americano + cappucino), chicharrones to start, chilaquiles (add egg) with choice or red/green sauce, and 4 tacos. Chicharrones came with generous amount of guac, and delicious, fresh tortillas. The pork skin itself was alright, but a great vehicle for the guac. Coffee was decent, cheaper than if you get a touristy cafe. Cappucino was very rich and milky with nice layer of foam on top. Chilaquiles were good, and tacos were very good as well. They accept card! Very speedy service. Overall, cheap and authentic.

I'll for sure be back whenever I go back to Tulum.

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.

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.

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.
