No café a atendente foi muito querida e me deixou experimentar uma quesadilla com queijo vegano (pedi uma unitária, o que não tinha no cardápio), e tive que voltar pra janta pra comer o prato completo, que vem com arroz, feijão e salada! Muito gostoso! Updated from previous review on 2025-04-11”

Thanks again !!”

Portions are generous and the homemade sauces add an extra touch of deliciousness. They also offer fresh waters!
The service is fast and friendly, making the experience even more pleasant.”

“I've been vegetarian for over a decade, travel a lot for work and this is hands down one of the best places I've been. I was blown away by the amazing breakfast I had here. So much so, I took friends back and it became my go-to spot during the week-long stay in Holbox. So many veggies on one plate! I'm talking broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, beets, potato, carrot, jicama, tomato and lettuce, plus antipasto sundried tomato, artichoke, zucchini and eggplant ... and that was with my organic eggs on toast breakfast. On revisits back I had vegan dishes too (sorry forgot to take a picture) and loved the eggplant balls as well. This place is worth the visit with great staff, friendly atmosphere, location, and excellent service.”

They know what they are doing. Highly recommended.
I can't believe it was empty.
Simple and friendly service. We will definitely repeat to try the rest of your proposal.”

“A place with a very rich seasoning. Veracruz style food with a delicious touch.

The restaurant is a little hidden, on the second floor. The prices are affordable, however, although they accept cards, you have to ask beforehand.

A negative point is that we realized that, like most restaurants, they leave the food on the counter before serving it. When doing so, it was filled with flies and the manager realized it but continued preparing another order instead of paying attention to it. hygiene.

Wheelchair accessibility: It is not wheelchair accessible. You have to go up to a second floor.”

Idéal pour boire un verre à tarif raisonnable ou se nourrir à petit prix également

Grand extérieur”
