“Delicious pizzas and at a fair price.

I tried the focaccia 7/10 because I thought it was focaccia bread as such, but it is a pizza base with olive oil and rosemary that was delicious.

Pizza Boccanera (if I remember correctly it's the one in the photo) 10/10 spectacular. Without a doubt when I return to Tulum I will return for a pizza

I tried another cheese with walnut (whimsical I think it's called) and more than delicious, if I could in a restaurant I would add caramelized pears and it is 11/10.

Good deal, fast service.

Super important, there is no cross contamination in the kitchen, so if you are allergic to shellfish, remember to mention it when placing your order, but you can eat with complete confidence.

The habanero chili cream they give is great, if you can't handle the spiciness, better stay away from it.”

“El taco de mole negro, aunque me pareció que era mole poblano, está muy rico, las tortillas son hechas a mano. El chico que atiende es muy amable y te da buenas sugerencias. Lo único que no nos gustó es que no tienen muchas opciones de bebidas. Solo había agua del día sin azúcar, y bebidas gasificadas.”

“I had to leave a review for this restaurant after they were so kind and accommodated a group of 12 of us an hour and half after our scheduled reservation. The day of our reservation, our house lost power and all signal, and we weren’t able to contact the restaurant or any taxi services all day until we were moved to a new airbnb with wifi. At this point we weren’t able to get a cab until an hour after our originally scheduled reservation (and we had a large party of 12). The folks at Tu were so so kind to us and let us come late to the restaurant. They greeted us with free mezcal shots. The food was delicious and beautifully plated. We ordered 4 appetizers, at least 6 bottles of wine, and main courses for everyone and it only ended up being about $60usd per person, which we thought was incredibly well priced for the amount and quality of food we had. The restaurant is so cute with a little window to peak into the cooks in the kitchen. It also had great vegan options for our group. The risotto was one of the best risottos I’ve ever had in my life! Also, at one point, a musician came in and played us some live music, which was unexpected but fun. Thanks again Tu for a great last night of our trip!

Vegetarian options: Good vegetarian options”

“Don't miss it. If you like Thai food and you know what's good for you, don't pass it by.

Penang is better than the Massaman in my humble opinion, and the cashew chicken is to die for.

Service is fine. I think waiters/waitresses in Mexico in general need to learn to not pick at their face/nose whilst on the job, it's a terrible habit and doesn't breed confidence in hygiene...

All being said and done.

Restaurante La Choca Tulum C. Chichen Itza mza 30-lote 2, La Veleta, Tulum Mexican • $$

“Wonderful family run place with outstanding food! A downtown gem!!

We took our party of 18 here for a last-day group celebration to end our vacation in Tulum. It was a diverse group age-wise (kids to older adults) and tastes varied widely (from seafood lovers to steak lovers). There menu had something for everyone. Outstanding ceviches and fresh fish, wonderful guacamole and salsas and perfectly cooked, delicious steak picanha.

Drinks had very nice options too, from small batch tequilas, beer and wine to mixed drinks.

But the best part of this outstanding experience was the warm, fun and gracious atmosphere. You could feel the warmth of the owners and staff. Live music and just about as nice of a get together spot as one could ask for. Maybe the restaurant could add some fans as it gets pretty hot! Thank you for a memorable last meal on our trip to Tulum!!”

“Here's a review you can use: A Hidden Gem in Tulum – Casa Maria During our recent trip to Tulum, we stumbled upon Casa Maria, a small but beautiful Mexican bar and grill located right on the beach. This quaint restaurant exceeded all expectations. The food was absolutely perfect—authentic flavors, fresh ingredients, and every dish was cooked to perfection. The ambiance added to the experience: relaxing, cozy, and with a beachfront view that made the setting feel magical. The customer service was impeccable—every staff member was attentive, friendly, and made us feel right at home. Casa Maria may be small, but it has a big heart, delivering a dining experience that is simply unforgettable. If you're ever in Tulum, make sure to visit this hidden gem!”

Cheap Eats

“This place has been around for a very long time. I don't know where all their prior reviews went, but they had hundreds of high reviews from people traveling between Tulum and PDC. Don't expect anything fancy or great service, but you will have some of the best cochinita pibil tacos around. That's all they serve; no carne "estrada", no nachos, no nothing other than cochinita. It's front and center where you can see it, and the tacos are made up front as well. Ask for your favorite beer or refreshment, then ask for three or four tacos. If you're out before the server comes back, just go over to where the tacos are being made and hold up 4 fingers for four more tacos. Simple as that. Quick, cheap, and delicious. Another heads up, they don't speak much, if any, English at all.”

“Some of the best food you’ll find in Tulum. We came here twice while on our trip and nearly came a third time if they weren’t closed that day.

Highly recommend trying the tamales and the corn elote. If you haven’t had Huitlacoxe before then I also suggest ordering one of the item menus with it. We had the quesadilla and it was to die for.

It is mostly outdoors so if you’re there in the hot season prepare for a bit of heat.”

Sole Cantina Av. Tulum 7, Tulum Centro, Centro, Tulum Sports Bar • $

“Sun-Kissed Vibes and Unforgettable Flavors at Sol CantinaNestled in the vibrant heart of Tulum, Sol Cantina is a true gem—a place where the spirit of the town comes alive with every sip and bite. It’s more than just a cantina; it’s a celebration of the laid-back, sun-drenched lifestyle that Tulum embodies, where every visit feels like a warm embrace from an old friend.The experience kicks off with the Caguamas—those wonderfully oversized bottles of Victoria that are as refreshing as they are iconic. There’s something special about cracking open one of these big bottles; it’s a ritual that perfectly complements the easygoing vibe of the cantina. Whether you’re lounging with friends or simply soaking in the atmosphere, a cold Caguama in hand is the perfect way to unwind.But the real stars of the show are the tacos and quesadillas. The tacos are a testament to the art of simplicity, each one a burst of authentic Mexican flavor. From the succulent carnitas to the perfectly spiced chicken, every taco is crafted with care, wrapped in tortillas that are soft, fresh, and utterly delicious. It’s comfort food done right, the kind that satisfies both the stomach and the soul.The quesadillas at Sol Cantina are equally impressive, with their golden, crispy exteriors giving way to a warm, cheesy interior that’s packed with flavor. Whether you’re indulging in classic fillings or trying something a bit more adventurous, these quesadillas are the perfect companion to a cold Caguama.Sol Cantina isn’t just a spot to grab a bite—it’s a slice of Tulum’s vibrant culture, a place where the food, the drinks, and the atmosphere all come together to create an experience that’s as memorable as the town itself. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this is a place where the good times roll and the flavors linger long after you’ve left. A true Tulum treasure.”

“Don't miss it. If you like Thai food and you know what's good for you, don't pass it by.

Penang is better than the Massaman in my humble opinion, and the cashew chicken is to die for.

Service is fine. I think waiters/waitresses in Mexico in general need to learn to not pick at their face/nose whilst on the job, it's a terrible habit and doesn't breed confidence in hygiene...

All being said and done.
9/10.”

“Here's a review you can use: A Hidden Gem in Tulum – Casa Maria During our recent trip to Tulum, we stumbled upon Casa Maria, a small but beautiful Mexican bar and grill located right on the beach. This quaint restaurant exceeded all expectations. The food was absolutely perfect—authentic flavors, fresh ingredients, and every dish was cooked to perfection. The ambiance added to the experience: relaxing, cozy, and with a beachfront view that made the setting feel magical. The customer service was impeccable—every staff member was attentive, friendly, and made us feel right at home.

Liefs Av. Coba 107, Tulum Vegan • $

“Very good coffee and delicious banana bread, also attractively designed, but unfortunately the location right on the main street makes it a bit noisy.
The employee who served us was very friendly and there was even a small hibiscus lemonade on the house!

The Iced Americano Espuma could have been a little less sweet/intense for my taste.

It's usually a good sign when the owner stops by the café and eats something!

Parking: Since the café is on a main street, there are hardly any parking spaces available. It's best to park on the next street on the side of the café.

There is a gap on the side of the road directly in front of the café where you are actually not allowed to park, but that worked for us for a short time; we had asked an employee beforehand.”
