I recently had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between warm and modern, creating a welcoming space that feels both relaxed and refined. The staff were attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about the menu, and genuinely eager to ensure every guest felt taken care of.

The food was the true highlight. Each dish was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented, with fresh ingredients and bold, well-balanced flavors. From the appetizers to the main course and dessert, every bite reflected consistency and attention to detail. Portions were generous without being overwhelming, and the menu offered a great variety to suit different tastes.

What truly sets this place apart is its commitment to quality and hospitality. Even during busy hours, service remained efficient and friendly. Pricing felt fair considering the quality of the food and overall experience.

Whether you’re planning a casual dinner, a family celebration, or a date night, this restaurant delivers on all fronts. I would absolutely return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.

Amazingly MEMORABLE food! Rustic style meal with fresh homemade tortillas that are out of this world. The subtle flavors of the chicken and pork blended well with the sides of rice, beans, and plantains, and were complementary to the onions and salsa. They were swamped at lunchtime but tables turned quickly and staff were professional, clearing and cleaning tables immediately. Restrooms were clean. This is located in the Mercado, similar to a food court. I will definitely return!

We were looking forward to eating here. Unfortunately my dish Pollo Pibil was a disappointment because everything was cold…the chicken, the rice, the plantains!

The grilled chicken was overdone and slightly dry, but the sheer size of the plate made up for it. Sometimes, quantity can overpower quality in my reviews because I’m always so hungry. I do recommend this place, and I expect that I will be back to try other options soon.

We drove from Secrets Akumal Riviera Maya to Chichen Itza, leaving early to beat the crowds. For a while, we had this incredible place almost to ourselves. Amazing to see such a wonder standing the test of time.

My friend and I planned to eat at Holbox, but with an hour-long wait just to order, we didn’t have the time. Thankfully, we discovered Chichen Itza right in the same Mercado complex—and while it’s not at the level of Holbox, it’s still a solid choice for delicious food without the wait.

I ordered the Pollo Asado, a flavorful boneless chicken grilled over mesquite charcoal and marinated with achiote and sour orange juice. It came with perfectly cooked fried plantains (crispy on the outside, soft and sweet inside—so good!), roasted red onions, rice, and black beans. My friend chose the Cochinita Pibil, which was tender, juicy pork marinated in achiote and sour orange juice, cooked in banana leaves, and topped with pickled red onions. It came with rice, black beans, and warm tortillas.

We also shared a large Ceviche, which was fresh and zesty. Overall, the food was tasty and well-prepared, with good portions.

The ambiance is casual and unpretentious, perfect for a quick, satisfying meal. The Mercado itself has a bustling, lively vibe, which adds to the experience.

The big win here? No wait and quick service! Plus, we found street parking right out front, which was super convenient. If you don’t have the time to line up for Holbox, Chichen Itza is a great alternative.

Chichén Itza in Mercado La Paloma is absolutely delicious. I had the bistec a la yucateca (I was so hungry I forgot to take a photo lol) and my friend had the pollo asado (pictured below). The tortillas tasted like my Abuelita made them and the bistec was you gotta come check it out ! It was worth it

This place has got the plaza vibe. The music, the crowd, the mix of smells coming from different stalls… it’s got that real neighborhood feel, the kind of place where my mom, who already makes friends everywhere she goes, somehow managed to make double here before the food even arrived.

Customer service? Fantastic. People? Even better. It’s the kind of spot where you feel like you belong.

Now, the food. Undeniably good. The Pollo Pibil, Poc Chuc, and Cochinita Pibil all carried that slow-cooked depth you hope for. Smoky, tangy, with those earthy citrus notes that hit just right. But then… the portions. Let’s just say, if your mom’s looking down at her plate after two bites asking, “Where’s the rest?”, you’ve officially crossed into emotional appetizer territory. Delicious, but not nearly enough to satisfy a hungry heart (or a hungry parent).

Had to whip out the wallet again just to make sure she didn’t leave hangry. So, let’s just say I wish the portions were larger (more family style).
