I'd give it zero if I could! Maybe it's because I'm from California and have had the real thing time and time again. Maybe for Tennessee this is good- but it's far from the real stuff. Bland tasting- and sloppy. read more

This is a great restaurant, however, if you're vegetarian or vegan, please be aware that they cook their rice with chicken stock; despite having a green leaf for vegetarian, beside many menu items containing rice. read more

Love it! Food is always fresh. Workers are always down to earth. It almost makes you feel like you are out of Jackson. Which is a good thing.... read more

My son and I had our first visit to this establishment Saturday and we will definitely be back! It is not your typical Tex-Mex at all. It looks and tastes like everything is made fresh daily and there was no sign of a microwave in the place. The proprietor said they don't use anything that has been frozen or microwaved and I can believe it. Don't expect it to be like anyplace else in Jackson. It's definitely a California take on Mexican food. I only had a couple of disappointments with the meal... their Horchata maker was out sick and the Guacamole wasn't as good as I expected. They bring chips to your table and the salsa bar has a good, tasty, selection... from mild to very hot. Just right for anyone's taste. I saw them deliver "kid friendly" meals, so bring the little one's. read more

I eat here all the time! The staff is friendly ! The service is excellent ! There are large pictures everywhere of any dish they offer and a large menu ! They have a lot of vegetarian plates to choose from! They are constantly creating new dishes! There is a nice salsa bar! The sweet tea is perfect! The restrooms and dining area is clean! The ac and heat work fine! The music is great ! It's located in a good location on Carriage House and Highland! How much better could it get???? read more

LOVE this place! They are genuinely nice people. I always get the Cozumel Burrito with Chipotle Salsa from the salsa bar. Nachos are great too! read more

Stopped in on may way through Jackson on I40 and was blown away. Excellent food, service and price! Definitely recommend the fish tacos.

I have tried most of the offerings on the menu. I really enjoy the fish tacos (my personal favorite) and the banana leaf tamales (best in all of Jackson). I will say that the beef reminds me of pot roast, but it is delicious all the same. Don't forget to ask about the aqua fresca and horchata. They are pretty tasty as well! Excellent made from scratch food, excellent price, friendly staff, clean establishment, and fast service....what more could you want! read more

This is the best place for mexican food in jackson, tn.

Fantastic! The tacos were wonderfully seasoned and light. Excellent sauce, lightly breaded fish that was moist and not oily, freshest shrimp in town. The tortas are outrageous. Nice fresh bollilo bread, citrusy guacamole, and rich moist carne asada. The salsa bar is a fun touch, and thank you for the HABANERO! I live in Jackson and I've never been here in the five years they have been open. I guarantee they will know me by name within five weeks. read more

Stopped for lunch on way to Nashville. Great food. Mango sweet tea was superb i had the shrimp salad, seasoned with chipotle and various spices. Huge serving, but really good. Jean had fish tacos, also darn tasty. read more

I'd love to see this company become huge. They are fast, delicious and clean. Great variety of sauces, and very affordable

Great food but also very expensive. A typical meal with a drink is over 12 without tip. It's amazing California style Mexican food but the price is not for the area or for the ingredient list used. read more

Best Mexican food in West TN! Made fresh, service is great. The best fish tacos I have ever eaten. I resisted for a long time but finally broke down and tried them after the owner made me order saying if you don't like it anything on the menu will be free. The fish tacos are what I order now 95% percent of the time and I eat here more than anywhere else in Jackson. Honestly, I haven't had anything that I would not recommend. Great place. read more

They have a great restaurant. People are friendly and helpful. You have to try their chunky guacamole. It's the best!!!

By far the best fish tacos I've had in Jackson, Tn. If your passing thru or never been check it out forsure!

On our way to Nashville we looked up reviews of Mexican restaurants and decided to check Tukem out. They had so many good reviews we decided to eat here. They lived up to their reviews for sure !Great food ,fast service and a friendly manager as well as staff. My husband is very picky when it comes to shredded beef and this exceeded all his tastebuds. It was very tender and lean. I had their fish tacos and tried the elote for the first time and I was very impressed ! If we lived in Jackson we would definitely frequent Tulum! read more

Traveling through from Nashville to Memphis and stopped here because of the excellent reviews. We had the habenro queso which was plenty spicy, but too thin. Wouldn't get that again. The Elote (corn on the cob) which was smothered in cotija and cream sauce...was delectable! We may stop on the way home just for some more of this! The Borachos especial was great as well. The beef was better than the chicken and the torta was especially tasty. read more

We were spending the night in Jackson on our way back to Fort Worth. We picked Tulum for dinner due to good reviews. We were very pleased with the rice and beans that come with entres. The guacamole was excellent with a hint of jalapeño. I had the fish tacos and I must say I was in pig heaven. If I lived here I would be eating here often. Now, I've been eating Mexican food since 1969 when I moved to San Diego so I have a good base of reference. I also liked that a bottle of Dos XX was only $2.50. read more

Great place, nice food and service. Must go! The staff is friendly, clean ingredients at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended

Best fish tacos in town! Having the salsa bar to pick how spicy or sweet you want your salsa.

My favorite Mexican restaurant ever!! The only place in Jackson to go for Mexican and when I travel, I'm always comparing to Tulum!! Its the best ever!! read more

Don't let the outward appearance fool you- This place rocks! Great fab food for super value. Fresh, hot, interesting ingredients. Not Tex Mex. We stopped on the way between Oklahoma City and Chattanooga. read more

This is the best place in Jackson to get a fish taco. You can find better tacos and burritos in town but nowhere touches those fish tacos. read more

Tulum was an unexpected gem in Jackson--food so fresh, service so friendly, what's not to love? We stopped in off a road trip and were so thrilled with the fish tacos we had to go back for more. In addition, the carne asada is very tender, and the salsas are top-notch. Give this place your love (and money). read more

The food is so fresh & delicious here. It's a nice change from the oh-so-many similar Mexican restaurants in Jackson (while I'm a fan of those, too). I've had several different things here and I'm never, ever disappointed. Their salsa options are awesome! There is a very nice seating area outside too. This is a great place for large crowds, kids, adults...well, everyone. The staff is very passionate about the food and super helpful. read more

my wife and I have lived in San Diego,Cal. for 35 years and in that time have acquired a taste for Mexican food. We are in town visiting relatives and needed a Mexican food fix and on a whim stopped by this place not knowing that we were about to have California style Mexican cuisine! This place is the real deal! The menu is fantastic..the food is authentic..The spices are perfect and to top things off, Real homemade salsa! My wife loved her shrimp tacos and I devoured my carne asada burrito..We can't wait to come back and try more items on the menu..Jackson,if you want real Mexican food come here! read more

What a wonderful surprise found in Jackson of all places. House made, fresh guacamole that is excellent and has enough lemon juice! Fish and shrimp tacos that are not only authentic but delicious as well. OK, I can ding them a point for only offering refried beans rather than black beans. I got the del fuego tacos rather than diablo. Plenty of heat and flavor for me in the medium option. Acceptable bottle beer selection including Victoria, Sol, etc. very reasonable prices and a drive through to boot. They're usually busy but well worth it for outstanding Mexican. Will absolutely make it a point to go back next time I'm in town. On the way to BNA now and wish they were open for breakfast. I'm sure their huevos rancheros would be superb Oh, parking is fairly limited too. There - two strikes against them so I don't sound like a total fan boy. read more

i thought the food here was on par with what you would find at a mall food court mexican place. i liked the salsas and the rice and beans. my cheese enchiladas were just eh and were covered in some gross goopy cheese sauce. hubby got a chicken taco that had a really disgusting texture. it seemed like the meat was frozen, defrosted, boiled, and then warmed up in a microwave. he took one bite and wouldn't eat any more. we definitely wouldn't go back again. read more

We had the fish tacos and the shrimp tacos. They were served quickly, the food was hot and very fresh. The varieties of salsa are great and freshly made as well. You will not be disappointed. read more

Food was good. Restaurant was clean and original. Atmosphere was unique and fun. It was also right off the interstate which made it convenient for us as travelers passing through. read more

Been there twice and loved it. The Fish Tacos are fantastic. Like, bordering on San Diego fantastic. Shrimp taco was good. The Elote is literally a MUST. Seriously, a must as you will love it. Salsas were tasty, mix the very hot with the Chipotle one was great. Queso dip was just ok. Serves beer in a bottle and some better bar service would be perfect. Order at the register and they bring to you. read more

I think that whoever wrote the first comment about this place being a steakhouse was confused! If we are talking about Tulum its a good Hispanic (I hope that is the politically correct way to describe the Latino race ??) (If not I apologize and correct me if I'm wrong) restaurant. They use a lot of fresh ingredients.. And aren't like every other hispanic restaurant in town with the same thing on their menus and the same exact food ...same ingredients...the only thing that is different is the salsa..the size of the restaurant...the service....and who has the smallest bar. Tulum had good fast service...I like the drive thru concept...its probably great for lunch rush..all tho I've never used the drive thru..it was pretty clean...the dishes we ordered were great...my only complaint was the corn on the cob...I forgot what they actually called it...That's one thing they really seemed to advertise...it may have been out of season or something But I was very upset...I love that type of corn on the cob..I always ate it in Chicago .so I was looking forward to it... A big let down read more

Looking for good authentic food my cousin recommend Talum and she was right. I looked at their reviews and tried the fish tacos which were pretty awesome. My favorite is the chicken fajita salad and add jalapenos. read more

A very cute and quaint, Hawaiian themed Mexican restaurant. A delightful set up with a nice and varied menu selection. The food was extremely fresh and tasteful. I highly recommend this local little gem. You will not be disappointed!! read more

Live in the Nashville area stopped by on our way to Memphis. The food wasn't that good IMO. The chicken had a strange taste maybe it was marinated in lime juice but whatever the marinade they used it was not good. The guac was a total disappointment unless you like puree pasty guacamole. Overall I would skip this place it has to be better Mexican places in Jackson than that spot. read more

What a treat! Friendly staff, delicious food, and excellent ambience! A must if visiting Jackson TN, the Fish Tacos are amazing...can't eat just one, and lip smacking good! read more

We make a special effort to stop here to eat when traveling between Dallas and Nashville. Delicious, fresh food served quickly. They have a large menu and it's worth taking the time to step back to review before going up to the counter. (Or you will spend your time, like us, scoping out everyone else's plate to figure out what they ordered and what you're going to get the next time.) I like the tacos diablo with shrimp. Salsas are available on a bar and are all yummy. Fun beachy decor. read more

Great spot! very fresh food excellent choice for a quick meal passing through on our route home. Fish tacos were better than expected and sloppy joe quesidillas excellent Will definitely stop again read more

You walk in and order and then get a number and find a seat. You serve your own drinks and get your own salsa. Chips and ordered meals are brought to you. The fish tacos are to die for. Perfectly crispy and I love the purple cabbage slaw. It has a tasty ranchy cream sauce to top it off that is super tasty too. The salsa bar is also awesome. I like to mix the green salsa with a red to make it more mild. So good with the warm tortilla chips served right to your table. Also love the mango tea, very tasty. Service is always super friendly and quick. I love going to eat here. read more
