Queso dip w/ chorizo
Marina P.

Was packed and busy, we only stepped in to charge our phones and love the face that there were charging stations at the bar top. Bartender took a little bit of time to get to us, and my coffee took about 10 min to get to me. We ordered the queso dip to wait for our phones to charge, and it did not disappoint. Really enjoyed the chorizo in it. Also recommend getting the chicken tortilla soup, has a little kick to it and comes with bits of chicharrones.

Guacamole Mexican Grill moved to terminal 4 after the recent renovations to the airport and it's a huge let down. I should've read all of the reviews on Yelp because my whole experience there was awful. With a bunch of food options in terminal 4, I wanted Mexican food before we departed. There's Wolfgang Puck, Guy Fieri Burgers, Panda Express, etc... but we wanted to stay the course and stick with Mexican food for our Mexican vacation. Looking back on it, we should've opted for something else. The service here is so rude and they don't have anything ready. I wanted a steak burrito but there was no steak ready. The only meat available was chicken. After the employee behind the counter went to the kitchen to check for steak, she came back and just said "chicken?" She didn't let me know when the steak would be ready and just assumed that I would oblige to getting chicken instead. What?! We also got a burrito bowl and I have to say...it's probably the worst burrito bowl I've ever had in my life. It's weird how they just section off all of the ingredients. Nothing flows and it's not even mixed together! Totally disjointed. They only give you two toppings and we couldn't even get salsa to put in our burrito or burrito bowl without it being extra. Are you kidding me? The horchata was terrible. It was so milky and chalky. Please do yourself a favor and don't order it. If you're in terminal 4, I would venture to a known commodity such as Wolfgang Puck or Panda Express.

Let me start off by saying that the Guacamole Mexican Grill has some of the worst food i have ever tasted in a restaurant, and i have been in a lot of restaurants... the rice was not cooked thoroughly, the beans taste like they where boiled in sewage water, and the classic topping of onion and cilantro was 4 extra dollars!!!! someone must inform them that money does not grow on trees this instant... and aside from the food being some of the worst i have ever tasted the workers where assholes too!!! they barely spoke english and treated me like a delinquent 4th grader!!!! It is safe to say that this was the most pathetic and most unpleasant experience i have ever had in the restaurant industry.

Great little place for chips!
Marco N.

Didn't expect much and had some great burritos here. Large and tasty with steak and multiple yummy ingredients! Also had the cheese chips with pico and guacamole, quite yummy, just have to eat it while the cheese is warm! Most fast food places have a small selection of local beer as well.

Pretty ok for what it is. Airport food. They had a couple breakfast options, so I had the beef jerky and egg burrito. I've had better, but it was a different choice, in regards to airport food (not in regards to being in Mexico and having Mexican food available...) Decent fare, fairly tasty.

Receipt!
Jose F.

DO NO EAT HERE!!! I usually don't write reviews but I wrote this one because I felt so ripped off! The food was ok but WAY overpriced. Everything is charged extra. For example, $2 for lettuce.... ridiculous. I ordered 2 burritos one of them with another side of protein and the lady charged me twice for one of the proteins. When my wife complained, the rude lady charging said it was charged correctly. In addition, an order of Totopos and Pico was $6 dollars. Completely ripped off. This place charged twice as Chipotle and is not as good. This ruined our last day in Mexico.

Horrible food, over priced. Staff are more concerned about chatting with each other than focus on your transaction. Keep walking!

Jim S.

So so place but can do veggie or vegan here.....food seems lite on oil and freshly prepared, but stingy on portions and high price for vegetarian option since they still charge extra for quacamole.....since same price as meat burritos they should give the quac since getting no meat, or, charge less for veggie option...imho

Guac and chips, taco plate.
Joseph Y.

This is for the restaurant inside the security area of terminal 3. The food here was actually rather cheap compared to the other options inside the terminal. I also wanted a bit of Mexican food before I left the country. Ordered the tacos plate and some chips and guacamole, was not disappointed at all. The tacos were great, the pollo asado was seasoned well and they weren't skimpy with it all. The sour cream was kinda weird since most Mexicans don't even eat sour cream, but I didn't really care for that stuff. The guacamole here was excellent, which was a good thing considering what the place was named. This place is going to be your best bet if you're stuck inside terminal 3 security. The other options are typical american franchise crap like Dominos and Johnny Rockets.

Food isn't that bad. Not too much flavor to the chicken. Good guacamole and not badly priced for airport food. Staff isn't the nicest

Beef tacos at Cancun airport
Vic G.

This was my first time trying this chain. After having so much delicious food all over Tulum, I was a bit hesitant to begin with. But then, after taking a mini tour of the airport and having to choose between a pizza and a burger joint, it was a rather easy choice to go this route. Again - making sure not to judge this place and compare it with all the good food I had for the past week and a half (and of course all the weight gain that came with it!) I have to say the place did not disappoint. I went for the beef taco combo which came with a scoop or a dollop each of salsa, sour cream and guacamole. Thanks for the name of the chain - you don't have to pay extra for the guac. In fact, they have salsa and guac that you can take extra in the to-go paper cups. Bonus Bonus!! And given my pre conceived notion that the food won't be too hot n spicy, I asked the lady who was taking my order if they had some hot hot sauce. She asked - green habanero will do? I was like - Yes Please! So the food was hot and I could see the tacos were warmed to my liking. Another check. The protein filling was generous - and hence the high airport prices totally made sense. And of course the hot sauce did it for me - a la my icing on the cake, if I may. Again, if I had to cramp myself in the sea full of travelers at one of the so called dine in restaurants at Terminal 3, I am glad I chose this option and was still sitting in a crowded food court albeit with a much better option. Nothing against boxed to go personal pizzas or good ol burgers, or even airport Chinese food for that matter. Just glad my last meal in Mexico was a rather simple and satisfying triplets of tacos and hot habanero puree. And of course - Modello Especial! Adios Mexico!

These are the foods we ate

Hacienda Montejo is a fast food restaurant located in the food courts of the Cancun and Merida…read moreInternational Airports. I was looking for decent airport food while waiting for my flight back to the United States from Cancun (after a relaxing stay at the @joiabyiberostar Paraíso). What I found was a surprisingly delicious eatery providing tourists with the final flavors of the Yucatán. The colors and textures of the eatery are intended to remind tourists as much of the warmth and coziness of a hacienda as one can get from a food stall in an airport. Hacienda serves breakfast in addition to lunch and dinner specialties. This is not an eatery to enjoy if your plane is about to board--there was a fifteen-minute wait before the food was ready. I ordered the: Cochinita Tacos (Yucatán-style barbecued pork with pickled red onion) Lime Soup (chicken broth, sofrito, sour lime) Agua de Chaya (leafy perennial shrub native to the peninsula) Everything tasted fresh, well-seasoned, and delicious. I am already planning a trip to the area this year. Usually someone who doesn't like to wait long at the airport, I will definitely make time to experience the panuchos, salbutes, and Motuleño-style eggs. It's rare that one is excited to eat airport food.

Nothing special about the ambiance but personally it wasn't worth the money spent. I do not recommend it at all unless there's nothing else and you're just hungry and need something.

I ordered the steak chilaquiles, which were tasty, and a kiwi strawberry lemonade that sounded refreshing but was difficult to drink as it had chunks of fruit and they kept clogging the straw. It wasn't sweet or tangy, watery yes. I added sugar and it made it worse haha. We ordered 6 waters that came in bottles, and one came already opened. When we pointed it out, the staff refused to take it back and still charged us for it, which was frustrating. While we waited, one of my friends, whose feet were swollen, briefly propped them up on a metal chair (which had no cushion and she was not wearing her shoes), a few seconds later, a staff member quickly told her to put them down and not in the nicest way. The (other) worst part was the wait for the bill. Despite asking for it with time to spare before some of us had to catch a flight, it took them 32 minutes to bring it (I counted). The restaurant wasn't even busy, yet the service was slow and inattentive throughout. In short: good food, but poor service, inflexible staff, and a lack of urgency, not ideal when dining at an airport in my opinion.

I asked a friendly local (who I'm not sure if he worked at the airport or was one of the many…read morepeople trying to sell a ride) what he recommended eating in the airport and he admitted it was grossly overpriced food. But he said I could check out here or there was also Guacamole Grill in terminal 2 where I was headed. Apparently he used to work there and said they're owned by the same people. Went with Berryhill just because they were closer and I was hungry. Street tacos and tamales are my go to's for Mexican food, so I went with the tamales (choice of 3 - pork/beef/chicken/beans/spinach & corn) for a little over 200 peso (~$10). Came with black beans, Mexican rice and mole sauce. Chicken was dry, beans were literally just black beans, and the spinach & corn ended up being pretty moist and yummy. They also brought over salsa verde and roja which I used rather liberally to compensate for how dry they were. The verde was very mild and tasted of bananas whereas the roja tasted like chipotle. The mole sauce was also pretty good, a little tangy. Overall, not the worst airport food I've had, but nothing memorable. It's about the same amount I would pay for airport food in the states, but it's expensive considering it's Mexico.

When I visited here, because it was so early in the morning, it was not at all my intention to order any alcohol. So I specifically asked for a virgin mango daiquiri. The server asked if I wanted tajin or sugar. Once I confirm tajin, I was soon surprised to see just how large the tall order of the virgin daiquiri drink was. After sitting at the bar, making friends with the bartender, as I watched him pour ounces of tequila and syrupy, margaritas, we had a friendly conversation, and then my check came. To my surprise that hour and a half of peace and sunlight cost me $30 instead of $8, because the server claimed that I ordered a daiquiri mango, not a virgin daiquiri. We went back and forth for quite some time until ultimately, I just gave in and paid because it did not seem as though any sort of resolution would be made. To say that I am displeased is an understatement, because you need to certainly confirm that someone is ordering alcohol or not. There's all sorts of risk at play by accidentally serving someone alcohol, might I add, there was not an apparent alcohol taste whatsoever in the drink. So the entire time I sat there, I thought it was a non alcoholic daiquiri. This was a sour ending to an otherwise, very relaxing solo vacation in Cancun. For $30 I could buy an entire bottle of Captain Morgan -- it makes 0 sense (in Caim math) to pay that much for an early morning daiquiri.
