The location of the restaurant is super cute! Very reminiscent of Mexico.

My boyfriend ordered the garlic prawns and I got the cochinita panuchos.

The pictures don’t do the food justice! The prawns were well seasoned and the dish came with fresh tortillas on the side.

I got the cochinita panuchos which come with 3 panuchos. It’s very filling! The bean stuffed maize patty is topped off with cold slaw and avocados.

The service was okay. The prawns were the only fish option available which was unfortunate since one of us is vegetarian.

Plenty of seating.

We came here to eat before getting on the road and we weren’t even they hungry. LET ME TELL YOU BEST MEXICAN FOOD I HAVE HAD OUTSIDE OF MEXICO probably ever. None of that Americanized stuff. So good. Literally we couldn’t stop eating even though we weren’t hungry. You cannot go wrong

What a delicious meal we had here!
We stopped there on the way to the Carmel by the sea and it was such a good decision!
Perfectly prepared chicken, great veggies and amazing guacamole (Chicken Fajita)

2nd time here and it still doesn’t disappoint! It’s totally unlike your typical very Americanized Mexican food.

Had the most colorful and scrumptious appetizer to share and each of us ordered pork, steak and chicken dish separately. Amazingly each grill meat tastes aromatically different.

The lady server was very friendly and we even went back to the kitchen to discuss with the also very friendly Mayan chef. He showed us the sauce used to marinate and cooked the grilled chicken with.

We left satisfied to our taste buds and not feeling too heavy or too rich.

Besides, the dishes are so vividly colorful with all natural ingredients!
This place is worth coming back again and again.

I almost didn’t go because I don’t *love* Mexican food in America but I saw reviews that said food is rly fresh and loved the variety of things I saw on plates so i went. Those reviews are 100% correct. Well seasoned, fresh ingredients FRESHLY prepared, and perfection portioned and served. Very friendly service, unassuming interior, very charming and unique atmosphere. Great for dinner for 1 or with lots of fam/friends. Server walked by to see if I liked the food, and all I could say was “this food is literally amazing” and I made eye contact with the chef!!! Highly highly highly recommend when in HMB.

Quaint little place with excellent food! We showed up past the breakfast hours, and when asked if chef can still make huevos ranchers, he said “come during breakfast!” So we ordered enchiladas and they were soooo good with great flavors. Chef/owner’s response was hilarious and made us respect him. Next time, we will show up in time for breakfast as I’m sure the food will be great!

The Yucatán plate had a nice mix of three appetizers, my favorite was the panucho. The cochinita pibil was solid, hardy and filling. The vibe was low key and homey.

I love the flavors of Mayan cuisine and this restaurant hits close to home with such delicious and savory food❤️, the service is great and every meal feels perfectly homemade and flavorful! My go-to will always be the enchiladas made with chicken stock sauce with the salsa, fruit, guac. I love this place and it will always be my go-to❤️
