I wish we'd found this place the first day of our trip--we would have saved SO much money! For $2…read moreyou get FIVE PASTOR TACOS that are absolutely incredible. Easily the best meal of our trip, and one of the least expensive. It was our last night in town and our budgets were tight. I searched Yelp for a good option that wouldn't break the bank, and just as I was passing the tantalizing smells of La Riviera Costena the location popped up on my app. We ascended the stairs and made our order off the extensive menu, but the walk-up pastor spit had us intrigued, we definitely had to try the taco deal. My friend and I each got the five tacos (he had to finish mine, they're small but stuffed!) and we shared a queso fundito and a horchata. Every bite was delicious. The horchata was refreshing and tasty. It's hard to find BAD food in Tulum, but the more touristy areas definitely have food that's less amazing. La Riviera Costena is right in the middle of the main street in town and does not disappoint. The one downside is there's no beer or alcohol served here--but that's a small price to pay for the incredible, affordable food. Plus, there's a number of bars around the area to fill up at afterwards.

Ugh what a standout place. It's kind-of like a drag restaurant, but actually delivers on flavor…read more Only weird thing about this place is the view but you can only blame weird city planning for that. Prices here are good, and the food is even better. Al Pastor + Condiments - One of my favorite al pastors. Cooked on a trompo, these tacos made me go crazy. There is a red sauce and a green sauce you can add to these and they're both lovely. Lime is available, and also something I did not expect - pickled habanero and onions. I gobbled up these habaneros and onions and was a very happy boy. (I can't believe they just give this to every customer.) I also got al pastor in a quesadilla and although the flour tortillas were awesome, I wasn't as much of a fan of al pastor meat in quesadilla form. I've been here multiple times and the food was consistently delicious.
