El Molino del Sureste Reviews
This place was AMAZING!! The food was so thoughtfully creative and prepared with obvious talent and love. We enjoyed meeting owner brothers and hearing their story of bringing their Yucatan culture and roots to the St. Louis food scene. Everything we tried was beyond delicious. This is a must-try for authentic Mexican food inspired by the Yucatan region.
So delicious! Every is just sooooo good. Take your time and try a bunch of stuff.
Great trendy small plate version of Yucatán style food. Loved the mackerel, scallops and dumplings!!

El Molino del Sureste, run by two brothers, is celebrated as one of the best restaurants in the city, showcasing Yucatán cuisine in an incredible way. The dishes are 100% gluten-free (except for bottled beer) and feature options like Joloches con hongos, sikil pak, pepita dumplings, sea scallops in mole, coconut shrimp taco, cochinita pibil taco, taco de castacan, and panucho de pavo. The food is authentic, flavorful, and unique, with favorites being the panucho de pavo and the shrimp taco. The restaurant offers a build-your-own tasting menu or tapas style, allowing diners to explore a variety of dishes. The attentive staff enhances the dining experience, providing personal service and insights into the history and preparation of each dish. The owners, two brothers from Yucatan, take the time to explain the ingredients and their significance to the people of Yucatan. The well-done margaritas contribute to the enjoyable atmosphere, and the pricing remains very reasonable for the quality and cuisine offered. Customers praise the fresh habanero salsa, the tender octopus and beef, and the authentic chocolomo with wagyu. Street parking is available.
