Restaurant Izel is a beautiful breakfast cafe located within Casa de las Palomas, a boutique hotel in Merida. We stayed at the hotel for five nights and enjoyed breakfast at Restaurant Izel three times. The menu is varied (Yucatecan egg dishes to fruit bowls to toast with jam and butter), so there's something for everyone! I tried to stick with lighter, simple breakfasts, so I tried the fruit bowl and the toast with housemade marmalades and butter. My husband tried the chilaquiles and other interesting (and delicious) egg dishes. The ambiance is great - the cafe is outside but covered and overlooks the pool. It was just a wonderful place to start the day in Merida! The service is great as well. I do wish the hotel website had information about their hours and included their menu - that would be helpful for people who aren't guests of the hotel to know when they can enjoy a meal at Restaurant Izel! Whether you stay at the hotel or not, Restaurant Izel is a great place for a relaxing and beautiful breakfast! read more
