Authentic French cuisine just off the beaten path in downtown Playa del Carmen. We ordered the paté de campagne, cordon bleu aux epinards, rotisserie chicken (1/4 breast), and pear cobbler with vanilla ice cream. The owner was lovely, ambience was relaxing, and the food was excellent. Highly recommend. read more

Do not go. They insulted my female guest, grabbed her by the arm and tried to physically remove her because she said her rice was hard/undercooked. When I intervened, the manager shoved me. read more

Located a few blocks off 5th Ave on a quieter street, La Brocherie is an amazing find. Fabian's is the owner and does pretty much everything around the restaurant. We had read the rotisserie chicken is great there. So, naturally, we ordered it to try it out. Fabian suggested eating the chicken in a taco style with tortilla along with the fries from our cordon bleu and that amazing Mexican style salsa. I have to say, it is pretty dynamite! The fries added a texture that I was hoping to find on the chicken skin. The chicken is very good, but if the skin is crispy it would be spectacular. The fries here are done superbly well. Crispy on the outside, but soft on the inside. Omg. Drooling just thinking about it. Even the rice that came with the chicken is fragrant and tasty. Don't be distracted by the lights and loud music on 5th Ave, walk a few blocks over to 15th Ave and visit La Brocherie. Your taste buds will thank you! read more

The best chicken I've ever eaten the service was great thank you for your great food and atmosphere i

What can I say, best rotisserie chicken I've ever had. this is a cute little French Rotisserie chicken restaurant and they have the chicken game all figured out. The owner explained the process and let's just say they take marinating their chicken seriously!! The chicken is to die for. So juicy and flavorful! The owner is super sweet and helpful. If you get tired of eating Mexican food in Mexico or just want to try something a little different, I highly recommend this restaurant. You can thank me later read more

This restaurant is simply wonderful! Delicious food, friendly and helpful service and the owner, Fabian, is just the best! Definitely go for the delicious chicken dishes, and Tuesday's mussels night. The pate is fabulous as well! read more

Love the chicken and service here. It's one of my go tos every time I'm in Playa and want a simply cooked delicious chicken and rice meal. And the salad is great too. Also enjoy all the desserts offered. Especially chocolate anything. read more

My favorite restaurant in Playa del Carmen. Great vibe and food. Off the crazy 5th avenue tourist trap, which makes it even better. Fabian, the owner, is great as well. We have been coming here for years and will keep returning. read more

So I believe we came here four times on our five day trip to Playa del Carmen. The food and service is absolutely that amazing. This hidden gem is ran by the most friendly and inviting couple. The owner is French so the food perfectly embodies casual and delicious French cuisine. The not to be missed list includes the rotisserie chicken and rice(the best chicken and rice you will ever have), croquettes, and pâté. The desserts are also so beautiful and delicious it will be hard to choose just one. I'm sure everything on this menu is wonderful, but I could not stray from the chicken and rice as my go-to order. You get some soft bread and butter to start which is always a nice touch. The restaurant is conveniently located a couple of blocks from hustle and bustle of the main avenue. They are only open for dinner (and closed on Sundays) so I suggest getting there early to secure yourself a table as they can understandably get very busy! We cannot wait to come back!! read more

My thoughts: 1. Service can not be beat 2. Price is great 3. Patio/street side so nice and breezy and good for people watching 4. Chicken is good and salsa is spicy! The chicken is a bit dry though and over priced. Rice wasn't very good. 5. Wine is great 6. Atmosphere is friendly, welcoming and warm. 7. Nice for couples, families, groups and solo travelers! Though because Playa has just so many restaurants, I wouldn't make this place a repeat visit unless I just happened to be around. read more

As you can see on my profile, I don't often write reviews as I only take time to write one when I have a memorable experience. This is one. A genuine one. This is one little gem. After restaurant hoping for the last 5 days in Playa Del Carmen (including a first visit to this French restaurant 3 days ago), I elected to comeback for an encore to this little gem of a restaurant. Arguably the best restaurant in Playa del Carmen IMO. The owner Fabian is genuine, and enjoys sharing his French culture, which this restaurant is a testament of. read more

My wife and I read so much about the greatness of this small French cafe we were a little skeptical. However, it was right on. The chicken was exceptional, juicey and flavorful, brought to the table by a wonderfully happy serv er. A bottle of wine, fresh bread, roast half chicken with rice and salsa and finished with a nice cognac, a perfect meal. Its quiet a good value as well. My wife wanted to go back the next day! Bravo! read more

Absolutely fantastic, rotisserie chicken is to die for as well as deserts. Can't miss!! Wonderfully engaging host/owner made for an incredible evening. This place is the real deal!! read more

If you're wondering how good rotisserie chicken and rice could be, and how that combo could that be worth 5 stars, you've never been to La Brocherie. There's something magically delicious about the food here, a great union of French and Mexican flavors. The French fries are perfect, and the deserts are wonderful, too. We often get the chocolate mousse, but the lava cake with ice cream is great, and so is the cheese cake. Call ahead or stop by in advance to make a reservation. You'll be sad if you get there and can't get a table. read more

1/2 chicken with rice is not only an exception value, but man is it good. The best meal we had in Playa del Carmen by far. The owners are super friendly and service is excellent! Don't be afraid to try the spicy salsa that comes with it, it is the bomb!! read more

We ate here couple years ago and I kept thinking about how amazing the chicken with rice was, moist with great flavor. Returned last night for takeout and it was as good as I remembered! We tried many restaurants in playa del Carmen and this is definitely one of top 3. Price is reasonable, nice owners, we will keep coming back every time we visit! read more

RUN. DON'T WALK. To this glorious restuarant. On the way to La Brocherie our taxi driver said, "This place is not famous, thats weird you are going here." We were craving chicken after overindulging in seafood all weekend. If I had found this place on day one I would have had it every. single. day. The owner is from France and has brought his lifelong expertise in French cuisine to Mexico. He marinates organic chicken in pineapple juice and Herb de Provence and cooks it rotisserie style until the chicken is nice and succulent. Leave the touristy boardwalk and make your way to this restaurant. If you want a nice homey, rustic meal and want to feel like you were fed a five star Michelin star meal; look no further. It was a pleasure meeting the owner and the next time I am in Mexico this will be my first and last stop. read more

La Brocherie - Roasted chicken with Herbs de Provence - Rotisserie Chicken Near Me - Playa del Carmen, ROO

My new favorite restaurant in Playa Del Carmen! The best rotisserie chicken ever. Marinated in pineapple juice and herbs de Provence, it is so flavorful, tender and perfectly cooked. Served with a delicious French bread and herbed butter, rice (or French fries -yummy not a trace of grease ), and tortillas, of course. The most difficult part was choosing the desert from the beautiful assortment of French pastries. The menu also features salads, and sandwiches, and are reasonably priced. There is also a nice selection of wines and beers, and a charming, clean atmosphere. It is family owned, by Fabian and his wife. Fabian is the quintessential French charmer and I enjoyed reminiscing with him about NYC. He was even kind enough to suggest other restaurants and cautioned us about things to be aware of in local restaurants. I predict many future visits. I feel it is my YELP duty to try the rest of the deserts! read more

This place was honestly my favourite restaurant that I went to during our stay in Playa Del Carmen. It might be one of my favourite restaurants ever. My boyfriend and I were in Playa for a little short of 2 weeks, and went back twice. We would've gone back more, but they're only open at night! This was on a list of recommended restaurants provided to us by our Airbnb host. I didn't really come into the restaurant with high expectations - it is JUST rotisserie chicken, how good could it be? A couple bites in and it was fantastic. Even the rice was out of this world. The restaurant is owned by a French gentleman and his wife. The owner came over to our table actually to tell us about the chicken and the restaurant. The chicken is organic (so it's a little bit smaller) and marinated with (pineapple?) and some French spices. The dessert was also delicious. May be some of the best panna cotta I've ever had. I honestly adore this place and would love to return! It's just a little bit off the beaten path - definitely walkable from 5th Ave. Please do us both a favour and check it out yourself! read more

Because I am the unicorn spirit that I am, I got lost walking around looking for this place. I was so determined that I stopped in my tracks and caught a taxi, lol! Well folks, it was worth it. Excellent, friendly service and amazing food! I ordered a glass of house Savignon Blanc and the Rotisserie Chicken over the Green Salad. DE LI CIOUS!!! As much as I wanted dessert, I passed. Now I regret it... An excuse to visit again! Danita Michelle read more

This place is a hidden gem and I'm not sure why its not more busy because the chicken is delicious!! Marinated in pineapple juice, herbed and roasted to goodness... I got a whole chicken combo and the dark meat was super tender and flavorful while the white meat was a little overcooked (otherwise this would be 5 stars). The rice was so good!, salsa had a nice warm and almost cheesy kick to it, tortillas were delish, and after eating to our fulfillment, we had 3-4 tacos worth of meat left over for the morning (and even that was delicious cold!). If we weren't so full we would have tried some of the desserts too. The 12 desserts they presented us with looked amazing. I'm definitely going to have to go back!! read more

I believe Fabian is the owner...the best host and waiter! Chicken was awesome...tender and not dry at all. Quality of food was worth way more than what we paid...very affordable. If you are in the Quinta area, I highly recommend for an awesome and affordable meal. What made the meal complete was the great conversation we had with Fabian. Talked to him about his journey from France to Playa. My six year is pretty shy and only opens up to super nice people and Fabian made him feel comfortable right from the beginning. read more

Loved that place so much that I came 3 times in 4 days! It's a small family business who put love in what they do. And that's to me the most important. The food is really good, I ate there one of the most delicious chicken I had in my life (that may sound dramatic but it's true!) If you want to eat well and spend a nice time, it's definitely a place you should try! read more

Get the chicken! It is good, juicy, and flavorful. Inexpensive for the delicious meals - I had the 1/4 chicken breast with salad and my husband had the 1/2 chicken with fries. Great skin and cooked well with savory taste. Desserts were had; the cheesecake and brownie which were very very good. We will be back! Owners are so lovely and you can tell they're very passionate about their business & food. Playa is full of these types of places if you can find them it's like coming 'home' as the owner Fabian would say. read more

The food is very good. The chicken is nice and tender and really juicy. The only reason I am giving it a three star is that it's over priced for the location and the amount of food they serve for the price is not good. I am giving them these three stars because it was not food to die for and omg you must try. We enjoyed it and they do tell you that the chicken is organic and that's why they are small ok I get it. The rice was not that great and the dessert we got tasted a bit refrigerated. The beer was not icy cold it was ok. It's playa I would expect ice cold beer to compliment the food and the humidity but no. The service was great and the owners mom is nice can't beat that. read more

I don't know what magic Fabian puts in the chicken. That man told me exactly what he does and I have failed to replicate that delicious chicken. Flavorful, herby, juicy... Great alone or with the "hot" sauce (don't let him scare you, it's not too spicy.) My failure to reproduce seems like a solid reason to go back. If you're feeling adventurous, the pate was also fantastic. read more
