Visitors, you must go eat here. We found many foodie places with fancy, tasty, tiny bites that were…read moregreat on a vacation trip. This place is more focused on authentic, well made simple Mexican food, generous portions, excellent service and drinks, and best prices. We ordered arrachera tacos, one order with cheese, one order without. The plates arrive with extra tortillas and enough meat to have 4 tacos, and you will eat all four. Bonus tacos! Best margaritas in town. Best service of anywhere we ate; very attentive to every need. One outdoor screen showing local sports. Lots of local people-watching, scenery, and positive vibes to take in right on their main strip, Paseo de Montejo. This restaurant proves you don't need to be pretentious and fancy when you have amazing authentic local comfort food and treat your customers like royalty. Glad we saved this place for last but... next time we'll go there first. Visitantes, tienes que ir a comer aquí. Encontramos muchos lugares para amantes de la comida con pequeños bocados elegantes y sabrosos que fueron geniales en un viaje de vacaciones. Este lugar está más enfocado en auténtica comida mexicana simple y bien hecha, porciones generosas, excelente servicio y bebidas, y los mejores precios. Pedimos tacos de arrachera, una orden con queso, una orden sin. Los platos llegan con tortillas extra y suficiente carne para tener 4 tacos, y te comerás los cuatro. ¡Tacos de bonificación! Las mejores margaritas de la ciudad. El mejor servicio de cualquier lugar donde comimos; muy atento a cada necesidad. Una pantalla al aire libre que muestra los deportes locales. Mucha gente local, paisajes y vibraciones positivas para disfrutar en su avenida principal, Paseo de Montejo. Este restaurante demuestra que no es necesario ser pretencioso y elegante cuando se tiene una increíble comida reconfortante local auténtica y se trata a los clientes como a la realeza. Me alegro de haber dejado este lugar para el final, pero... la próxima vez iremos allí primero.

The bistec tacos are soooo good! The portion is quite ample. The order comes with two tacos and…read morefour tortillas. I had to eat some bistec before I could double up on the tortillas to actually pick it up. I actually tried the habanero salsa which is common for this area. Just a bit will add amazing flavor; just don't overdo it!!! We also ordered a side of beans which came with tortilla chips. Since the beans had chorizo I couldn't eat them. Hubby said they were amazing! Also amazing is the service. Our order came out very quickly and our waiter was fantastic. This is a relaxed restaurant that is quite clean. You can eat inside or outside.

First of all, the hype is REAL! I went to the Suc. Circuito location around 11:30 before lunch on…read morea Saturday. I was told locals go here in my area for a quick lunch and it seemed to be the case. All the tables were full but there was no wait. Simple but sturdy wooden chairs and tables, simple decor but well shaded and comfortable. Service was fast, I mean sit down, order tacos, get a drink, get tacos, slather tacos in salsa, inhale tacos, smile in around 3 minutes! Then do it again. I don't normally eat grain, so this was a special, "had to eat it" treat, but the simplicity of the food and absolute mastery of this cook made the experience dream worthy. I started off with Agua Fresca de Jamaica, 2 Poc Chuc Tacos, and a Pollo Poblano. They had 3 salsas varying from Tomato no spicy to Tomatillo mas spicy. I went with a few drops of the Mediano spicy and a bit more of the Tomato no spicy. Honestly, the Poc Chi Tacos needed nothing, the Pork was flavorfully seasoned and well cooked. The pollo Poblano was tasty with thin slices of poblano sautéed with chicken. While tasty as well, I had just eaten my Poc Chuc taco first so it was a bit less favored, I was ready for Poc Chuc taco #2. Next I ordered two sauces tacos. They were out of the Chicarrones Rojo Taco, but I was also excited to try the Cochinita and Carne Adobada which the waiter told me was their take on Al Pastor with pineapple. I got pickled onions on the Cochinita and it was lightly sauced. No added salsa for this round. The flavor was amazing! My fave of the day was Poc Chuc, wonder what adding pickled onions to that would be like? Prolly my dream dish! I might just go back to order the Guisados to go and make my own taco bowl at home. (It looked like they offered this) That way I can cut the grain out and still enjoy the super yummmm! Cost was what I perceived as affordable about $Mx20 per taco, (upcharge for Tortas as an option, or premium tacos like Cochanita) not sure how this compares to other Taquerias because it will likely be my only tacos to try this visit, but I thought it was well priced and reasonable. I believe they only accept cash, but I assumed this and had cash, so I suggest you don't try going without cash. What a treat, and how grateful I am to have experienced such a beloved spot!

Wayané is a bit of an institution here. It is a favorite if many locals and for good reason, the…read morefood is fairly priced, it reflects local cuisine, and they have a broad selection that shows well. If you'd like to get a taste of Yucatecan cuisine in a corn tortilla, its worth a visit for sure. The service was good the one time we went but much of the seating is not really air conditioned so be ready for that if you go on a hot day.

On our 21 day Yucatecan culinary quest, we ventured all throughout Centro Mèrida, and feel ready to…read morecrown the prized Cochinita Pibil winner. Taqueria La Lupita - Congratulations on your victory! To the uninitiated, let's spend a moment on discussing the regionally renowned Cochinita Pibil. This is a slow-cooked pork dish, made as a hybrid of traditional Mayan and more modern New World techniques, much as its name is a hybrid of Spanish (cochinta = little pig) and Mayan (pib = pit-cooked) itself. Traditionally it's cooked while wrapped in banana leaves, flavored with spices (especially achiote) and left in an underground pit oven for a LONG time. When done properly, it's a juicy, tangy, savory, delight that can go in a taco, a torta, or whatever you fancy. Taqueria La Lupita does serious volumes of business, and a highlight is certainly their cochinita pibil. But, they are more than a one-trick caballo. During our extended stay, we visited TLL several times, and got to try both form factors (tacos, salbutes, panuchos, tortas, polcan) as well as meats (cochinita pibil, relleno negro, lechon al horno, escabeche). We still couldn't try everything, and certainly not every combination. But we sure loved our experience throughout, even for the items that were not notable winners. This place is popular for all the right reasons: Deliciousness, variety, service, value, experience. Even when it was a bit busy, they have a lot of tables, and we had really good service there. Don't get discouraged by a little wait time...it's the best option we found in Santiago Plaza/Market. Some places in Mèrida may have struggled to maintain their experience after being highlighted by Netflix or Youtube programs, but Taqueria La Lupita has stayed true, and we couldn't have been more delighted by our visits there. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Unfortunately, It was not worth the hype for me. Bland and hard tortillas. Not for me.read more
