Nice authentic atmosphere. We got an enjoyable vegetarian meal and fruit plate. We were happy we select this place.

We absolutely loved our experience here. Such wonderful people and the food is good.

Beautiful little family run restaurant, very pretty ambience. We had a language barrier but the lady was really lovely and helpful. Menu is limited to a few dishes, but all really delicious. Price is very reasonable. Great spot to go to after visiting Hacienda Mucuyche.

If you visit Uxmal from Merida, you HAVE to eat here on your way back. The food was great as well as the service. My favorite part was the atmosphere of being immersed in the jungle. They have a mini museum where they sell art and pieces of Mayan art of really high quality, which they made right there! Can't say enough good things, a highlight of our trip for sure. We had pollo pibil and poc chuc, boyh were great.

It’s hard to find but it’s worth it. Tradicional Mayan cuisine

The best lime soup ever tried. Also a great workshop. Best pieces to buy. A great hidden gem.

Great find on a day trip from Merida to Uxmal, a short drive back to Muna to have lunch, lucky to find this hidden gem after driving in narrow streets, we were immediately attracted by it’s mini arts craft shop and forest like enchanted garden inside it’s rather big landscapes , so relaxing! love the place except for lots of tropical insects on the ground of a small hut, where it is not part of dining place but they were kind enough to satisfy the curiosity of tourists like me exploring on my own. Obviously they were well prepared to serve groups of tourists, as soon after we arrived there were a dozen people coming in a group, nevertheless the foods were served fast enough, not many options in the menu but that’s exactly what needed by stopovers like us, the drink was the best to quench the heat of hot weather. A great experience of more than just foods!

Very interesting experience. Must try.
