This is a hidden gem that you just MUST find. I had the tuna, hubby had BBQ Pork. Best meal we have ever had in Mexico. Ever. Great service, beautiful setting, perfect food and very inexpensive. Two dinners, two desserts n pop for $34 USD. Awesome!

The food and the service were very good here. The waiters always made us feel comfortable at ease. They knew the menu and made good recommendations. The drinks were great, the bartender knows how to mix a good drink. The food was excellent. Not too complicated but simple, good and satisfying. This place was a great compliment to our vacation...

A group of four of us ate here in early December. Food was VERY good. Two of us had the fish (dorado I think?) and were very pleased. I had what I always have, the conchinita pibil- to me it is the best I have ever had and I have had it at a few different places in the Yucatan!... More
