We enjoyed a great dinner of Grilled Fish Fillet and Las Suizas Enchiladas. The fish was perfectly cooked and lightly seasoned in butter and Mexican seasoning (can't remember the name). The enchiladas were delicious and accompanied by black beans. This restaurant has a large juice bar so try a fruit juice or smoothie. I loved my Kiwi, Strawberry and Orange fruit juice which was served in a huge glass. Service was friendly. The great staff are very welcoming. We came back the next night for their delicious Breaded Fish Fillet and Shrimp in Garlic Sauce. They are open for breakfast as well. It is CASH only so bring pesos or US dollars. read more

It is hit or miss with this place. Great location, nice decor and atmosphere. The staff was nice as well. This place may be more known for their fresh juices but the food menu had a decent spread of choices. What I found to be unique was the bread they use for the tortas. I forgot to ask the server but I believe it was Cemita style bread. The torta did lack the appropriate amount of met I feel. If you are going to serve a sandwich this big, don't make the bite have more bread than meat per ratio. The flavor was good though just wish it had more met in it. For the price they charge I was a bit let down. That is the other thing guys, for some reason the price of this establishment could rival a lot of places in the US so don't assume you will have more cost effective eats as you may find some places are close American pricing. Most likely because of the tourism in the region but I bet you can find the same or similar sandwich on a street stall for about 30-40% less and just as good. Be careful with the green habanero salsa too btw. It is very very very spicy read more

Stopped by for a quick lunch. Love the decor and color in the upstairs seating. Service was attentive. My chicken burrito was full of good tasting chicken. Hubby's tacos were also full of goodness. Both salsas offered were quite spicy, which we enjoy. And the lemonada mineral was probably some of the best I've had. A solid and dependable choice for good Mexican food. read more

If you like healthy smoothies made to order in a place filled with fresh pineapples, bananas, and mangoes and then this is the place for you. The sound of the smoothies being made fills the air along with the Latin music and smell of taco meat on the grill. We like! read more

Food was delicious! Chocomilk was also really good very large. Pricing wasn't too bad. The space is open air so depending on the playa del Carmen temps it can get rather hot, we went around 2pm so it was warm but we picked a spot next to fans and we endured. Service was good. read more

Nativo turned out to be our to-go restaurant during our vacation at Playa Del Carmen. Their juices were just amazing. Don't forget to try the chilaquiles. They sure were scrumptious. My wife had a steamed salmon dish and she loved it too. The staff there were also very friendly and also made good recommendations for us. read more

Great spot for a healthy breakfast or lunch for sure! You are not gonna find drunk tourist here drinking mimosas or tequila shots. Awesome juices and smoothies is definitely their focus and best items to go with your meal. We had enchiladas suizas , chilaquiles rojos, sopa de verduras con pollo and pancakes. The food was good and on par for breakfast to start the day. Gonna come back just to get the juices for the morning. My favorite juice was called Alma Grande. If you eat in ask to be seated in the second floor to avoid the noice of the kitchen. read more

After seeing long lines for takeout every morning I decided to check this place out. The lines are for the amazing Juices and that is all I am commenting on since I did not go inside to eat. They have a takeout area where you wait on the sidewalk for your order. Pros: As before mentioned, amazing juices. Freshly blended in front of you. Will not forget to mention that they are huge. And best of all they are only 40 Pesos which Is about $2.00! Cons: Takes awhile to get your order and will take even longer if there is a crowd already awaiting (most likely will be). Keep in mind you will be waiting with the Mexican sun beaming on you. I posted menu pics but just to give an idea of the options...I went with the "Jugo Verde" which consisted of Cactus,Grapefruit,Celery,Parsley, and Pineapple. They have great options. This is definitely a go-to spot for me now. read more

I walked by their juice bar and it looked like a nice ambient vibe. So I strolled in even though all I have been doing in Mexico is eating way too much. I ordered a nopal juice which they customized for me into my own green juice with cactus and honey. I also ordered veggie tacos which were fantastic and it was a ton of food- I just forgot to mention that I don't eat nightshades and Mexican food is typically packed with them. I spent a ton of time meticulously picking out all the bell pepper. I also spent a ton of time on the WiFi there. read more

This place was disgusting. I got the vegetarian enchiladas and asked for it to be vegan. It came out with sour cream and cream sauce on it. They remade it but I don't know if they just scraped it off or what because it came back a little "used" looking. There was some kind of smell to the food. I couldn't tell if it was the smell of the can or it was something rotting. It was a mix of dish water smell, rusty can and something else. I couldn't eat it. Their soup was ok but most of the vegetables is cheap potato. The fruit smoothies are ok but that's hard to mess up. There's tons of places that make smoothies and juices--why come here? read more

Stopped by and got a juice this afternoon. Was a little wierd. Although there were people eating inside they wouldn't let me come in out of the rain while getting my juice. They had a chain up blocking entry. Juice was ok, large size, I asked for pineapple to be added the one I ordered but tasted no pineapple at all. no straw available as well so harder to drink. read more

If you're in Playa del Carmen you have to come here for breakfast! Their smoothies, juices, milkshakes, (the list goes on..) are as fresh as you can get them. Underneath the restaurant is a small shop with a variety of fruits that they use in your drink. So it's fresh, ice cold and only $40MXN (~$2USD) for a liter! My favorite one is called CHISPITA, it has pineapple, prickly pear, lime and orange juice all fresh and blended perfectly! For breakfast a must try are the CHILAQUILES: tostadas, beans, red or green salsa with your choice of meat (I have them plain) and some queso fresco. I think plate is big enough to split between two people and it'll cost you about $70MXN ($3-4USD). I have tried several of their other dishes but since I wouldn't be able to capture the essence of what it'll do to your tastebuds then all I can say is you must come feast on the food, drinks, and the artwork on on your trip to Playa read more

I feel like it is important to note this place has 2 locations. The 2nd one has rooftop seating. (1/2 block north from this location on the corner) Wow! What a find this place makes the classics as well as a HUGE variety of smoothies that are made right on site. Iv had the chicken fajitas a few times and decided to try the breakfast out this morning as my normal spot is closed on Wednesday's This morning I had an egg omelet with chicken and cheese inside with beans rice and a small salad on the side. The eggs were cooked a little well for my taste but they were still very good the fish is served with a handful of tortillas chips and salsa. I was able to finish the entire plate but was not left hungry by any means. I also had a cup of their coffee it was the perfect temperature, bitter in the ground and smooth down the throat. Over all one of the better cups of coffee Iv had here that wasn't from a coffee shop! The bottom line: We will be back for sure Excellent prices Hot food English is hit or miss Anything off the smoothie menu is delicious (they do add sugar to them so if you not a person that like a lot of sweet simply order with out sugar) Home style fajitas plenty to fill you up! read more

Taste great! Authentic Mexican food. The meat is tender. These Black beans are my new favorite. Juice servings are large. Juices are also so cheap! And delicious. Clean establishment, dining room is on the second floor, all the fruit and juicing action is on the first floor. read more

This place has a lot of game, so watch yourself here. Ordered steak tacos and chicken tacos. I wanted a side order of beans like was on the menu. The server said I can't get that. OK. The server said my food came to 203 pesos. I saw the sign where it said they took Visa and MasterCard. I told server I wanted to pay by card. He said I couldn't. OK. Took forever for my order to come out and there was no line. Server gives me my order in a bag. The bag felt light, so I said, let me check this order. Sure, enough, the chicken tacos we're missing. OK. Server went into the kitchen making some big deal about the chicken tacos not being there. He came and told me 7 minutes on the chicken tacos. Order finally came, I checked it and it looked fine. Got home ready to eat my food and there was no steak in the steak tacos. This is some BS. Not sure I'll be back even for the drinks. There's another place right across the street for that. Nativo a'int all that. read more

This place is awesome!! They have delicious fruit smoothies all day in either a 700 ml cup or 1000ml both very sizable portions. I got the cenote smoothie 3 times during our stay in playa because we kept going back. The service is very good and friendly. I had the chilaquiles with chicken for breakfast and the only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because I didn't like the chicken that much and there was too much chicken on my plate for my taste. The chilaquiles verdes themselves were amazing though! Really recommend you visit this place. read more

We were looking for an inexpensive place with good Mexican vegetarian options. Nativo fit the bill for us, twice. We got the same dishes, twice. Vegetarian enchiladas and vegetarian tostadas. Delicious! The walk-up is a little odd, as you enter through the kitchen area to get to the stairs to the dining area on the second floor. And the high-contrast flood lighting in the dining area isn't the most atmospheric touch. But, those are small quibbles given the fantastic food. Highly recommended! read more

Liked this place so much, was there at least four times and the staff started to recognize my friends and I. Ordered a different juice every time and loved it every time. Personally had the Alma Grande, Chispita, Indio Mora, & Huichol. Got a taste of my friends De Colores and Cenote. I recommend all of them! Pretty great way to make sure you get your fruits and veggies in while on vacation. read more

Very nice place to eat. We stopped for a late breakfast/lunch (2 adults/2 kids) We wanted to eat somewhere else other than 5th avenue, our concierge recommended Nativo. Smoothies were fantastic, tacos and enchiladas delicious and the huevos rancheros dish was excellent. Fresh ingredients. Very good food, service and prices. read more

Great smooties, plenty of vegetarian options , extremely friendly staff. We checked around for vegetarian options in many places around the town. Finally we found this place and were really amazed with the variety of vegetarian options a local mexican restaurant could have. They even had Vegetarian tamales. Their Yogurt and milk shakes are mindblowing. We spent majority of our vacation meals having smooties and trying different veg options. Highly recommended. There is also a sweet kind kid server about 10 years old who is always running around helping customers. They also offer complimentary corn chips and red sauce. Highly recommended. We are going to go again today before we return back to Austin to try the smootie for the last time. read more

This place is known for its fresh juices and shakes. And for a little over $2 per juice it's well worth it. They also have a all day menu with breakfast, lunch, and dinner including one of the places I've found mole enchiladas. Service could be improved, but the location is convenient. This is a favorite of ours when visiting Playa. read more

Food was exelente! We had the veggie enchiladas and the tostadas and loved them both. We prefer restaurants that are "off the beaten path" and were so pleased to have found Nativo to take a break from the other restaurants on 5th Avenue. We're going back again for dinner tonight! :) read more
