There was a guy on accordion one night who was fire. The menu won't disappoint -- it may be small but it's definitely delicious. The hot sauce from Valladolid is hot. Really hot. Really, really hot.

Oh, and I know it's not the typical Tulum mezcalita suggestion but the mojitos are old school legit with fresh cane. Check the Volkswagen. You'll know what I mean...

Great mixture of flavors! Chocolate ice cream - beautifully presented and some rich chocolate ice cream as well, and another dessert that I forgot. So maybe that one may be just okay LOL * drinks - Miami Nice (passionfruit) and a no name drink that the resto blends into a clear drink, served with a guava block. You take a piece of the guava block and leave it on your tongue, and sip your drink. Very very smooth! Would highly recommend this unknown drink. Michelin starred, reservations highly recommended. Better to come without heels since the flooring is made out of pebbles, dim lighting contributing to the dining experience, and fantastic service.

The rooftop…read moresetting is simply gorgeous and elevated so you feel the nice breeze against this town's hot weather. Quite romantic too! All the drinks and pizza we ordered were absolutely delicious. I was surprised a place like this existed in Tulum - an aesthetic pizza bar that rivals, if not exceeds, some of the best similar spots in LA. Even the music was on point, everyone here was drinking and having a good time but I especially love how all patrons were comfortably spaced out. Service also warrants 5 stars itself. Our server was a gentleman but also fun to talk to. He was super accommodating and attentive, but also left us alone during the right moments. Definitely coming back here when I visit Tulum again!

They have a number of rooms that can accommodate 15 to 20 people in an intimate setting. The roof top view is cool if you are a people watcher. Give it a try, you will be glad you did.

Todos Santos was a super hip bar in the heart of downtown Tulum. We were wandering around downtown…read moreTulum on my birthday and I was complaining about being way to sober for a birthday afternoon, and Todos Santos magically appeared... like out of a dream. The space was gorgeous... like rustic, jungle chic. It seemed a little out of place on the main strip (it looked very different than most of the other places), but that's what drew us in. They had a menu of inventive cocktails that featured local ingredients (guanabana, mango, coconut milk) and lots of different types of mezcal. The drinks were delicious and the music and atmosphere was awesome. It felt like a Brooklyn bar transplanted into Mexico (sorry if I sound like a snobby New Yorker :-)). There were only 2 other people in the bar, the bartender, Ulysses, and the owner (I think), Jonathan. They were 2 super friendly young guys. They gave us a brief history of Mezcal and told us all about the different local ingredients they used. I think this place only opened a few months ago. It seemed like business may be a bit slow, but we drove by late at night a few days later and it was pretty crowded. The crowd was all tourists, European expats, etc... no locals... I didn't even see any locals working there. I loved the bar, but I love supporting locals, so I feel a little odd giving such a colonized place 5 stars, so solid 4 stars from me. If you're looking for a cool a cool bar to have a tasty cocktail, definitely check it out.

They even gave us on the house mezcal shots with crickets and seasoned lime. We also loved the atmosphere. We went in the evening (late November) and it's wasn't crowded, plus there was good music and nice decor. It was too dark to take decent photos of the food but it looked just like everyone else's photos and was delicious!

There's plenty of other places in the area, this place would be a last resort.

The…read morestaff was amazing--genuinely friendly, incredibly attentive, and clearly passionate about what they're serving. You can tell they really know the food and love talking about it. One of the best parts of eating here is the feeling that you're right in the kitchen. The open-fire setup, the smells, the sound of everything cooking--it all makes the experience feel personal and relaxed, almost like you're hanging out with friends who just happen to be phenomenal chefs. I tried the tetelas and the short rib, and both were fantastic. The tetelas had that comforting, handmade feel with rich, local flavors. The short rib was ridiculously tender, full of smoky depth, and easily one of the highlights of the night. Kitchen Table's reopening feels like a win for Tulum. Great food, thoughtful staff, and an atmosphere that pulls you straight into the heart of local cooking--I'd go back in a heartbeat.
