Absolutely delicious food. Would 100% go back. The food is fresh, tasty, and healthy. My favorite dish were the sweet potato fries. Highly recommend. The fish ceviche is better than the mushroom one. I liked the tacos of the house but wish I had tried the veggie burger it looked really good. I recommend the falafels, sweet potato fries, fish tacos, and juices. It's expensive but the view is really pleasant and nice. The waiters are very friendly, nice and helpful with decisions. Good music. Chill vibes. read more

The Real Coconut - So yum! - Salad Near Me - Tulum, ROO

Most expensive place we went to with very small portions. It was pretty good but there are so many other places that are as good or better. We had cauliflower tacos, 3 small street tacos no salsa or accompaniments $20. They were ok but with the price left with a bad taste in my mouth read more

Good HEALTHY food. Great views as it is right on the beach. I tried instaflexing real hard and chose outside seating..let me tell you....while I was enjoying the views (and pics), I WAS SWEATING REAL HARD. With shame, I quickly moved to indoor seating. Food - had avocado toast (bit too creamy for my taste, but it was still tasty), some green juice (flushes your system out real good), chia pudding, and pancakes. Everything was really good. Also, GET THE COOKIES. They're vegan..yes..but so good (especially when you're drunk at the end of the night and realize you have melted chocolate chip vegan cookies in your bag that you forgot about). read more

We loved this place so much we came here 3 times on our weeklong vacation! I so loved the healthy food options the Real Coconut offers. We enjoyed their breakfast, smoothies, lunch, and dessert here. Not to mention the view is incredible right here on the beach! Definitely a must when visiting Tulum! read more

Went here on Indian Night unbeknownst to us it happens every wednesday night and you cant order off the standard menu. Not a big deal I love Indian food. The place was cute with live indian music, nice decor. But the prices are highway robbery. I fully realize that the Tulum Beach area prices have become wildly inflated and expected to pay california prices but of all the overpriced meals and drinks this was the most egregious. The tandori set dinner for 2 with the 18% added gratuity would set you back 5605 pesos or 280 usd!! Get out of here! Needless to say we got the chicken tikka curry which was decent but a very small portion and I have had much better at state side buffets. For 4 people with 4 drinks our bill was 180 usd. And had to go somewhere else to actually satisfty appetites. Ate the best indian food of my life in hong kong and payed 1/2 the price for more food then our party could eat and several rounds of drinks. Hard to imagine this restaurant surviving anywhere. read more

Grossly overpriced, bad food, extremely bad service. Console yourself with the amazing views & location. 1. A party of 4, order placed & very well presented food on your table, rises our appetite & you can't wait to dig in. The first bite, your tastebuds are in for a shock, a complete mismatch between what you see & the signals your tastebuds are send. One more try, your tastebuds cringe & plead you to STOP! You want to let the waiter know that something is off but he is nowhere in sight. BTW, even if by chance you like the food, extremely small portions. Do not expect to satiate your hunger. 2. The evening was extremely windy, don't know if it was the wind or my elbow the margarita spills all over my lap, dress. Happy Anniversary to me! You expect to see someone rush in to help with the mess or at the least to provide an extra napkin. NO ONE IN SIGHT... Wondering if it's ok if no one turns up, still keeping my hopes alive. 3. Finally, the punch in your face. The check is high. OK, maybe I didn't pay attention to the prices before placing the order. The bill is all in Espanol, if you don't know much of Espanol you can't figure out much of it except count the number of items. We figured out a Tip was added, mind you a party of 4 (actually 3, my little one slept through it without even a bite or a sip) & a good 18% without even a mention. I know of gratuity being included for larger parties & suggested amount for the smaller parties. Randomly adding your own figure, without a mention & for the pathetic service, not happy. Had very high hopes from this place & was looking forward to eat here even before our trip to Mexico started. A TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT & LET DOWN. Hyped COCONUT, not the REAL.., read more

Perfect Sunday Brunch. While the DJ plays and a few refreshing shots of Gin-Zing the cool ocean breezes calm your mind to prepare you for a delicious healthy meal. Great choice for Vegan and Pescatarian appetites. read more

We had a bridal luncheon at The Real Coconut. Ricardo, the manager was excellent in making sure this event would be perfect for the bride. The ambiance was splendid for this affair. First, you have this incredible ocean view, and then there is such a nice breeze, you would never know that it was 83 degrees. The seating had 18 women at a table, and the other seven women sat on the big L couches. We could have had everyone at one table, but the ladies elected to sit on the couches. The table décor had all the brides' colors with beautiful flowers down the center of the table accented with greenery. Ricardo had a table set up for the pictures of the bride and groom with local decor. The occasion started with water and margaritas to set the mood, then sikil pak dip and guacamole were served with homemade chips that tasted yummy and seemed very healthy. I wish I could import those chips to the states. Walter and Manual served Caesar salads with a coconut topping along with a charred sweet potato salad. The main course consisted of local fish tacos, shrimp al pastor tacos, and chicken tinga tacos. All plates were left completely empty. Walther and Manual were on their "A-game" of keeping filled glasses with water and Prosecco. They never missed a beat. The dessert is Fudge Brownie Cake. It was worth every calorie. The event at the Real Coconut was the perfect start for the bride and her wedding party for a fabulous destination wedding in Tulum. The ladies raved about the ambiance, the food, and the overall experience. If you want to hold an event particularly for ladies, the REAL Coconut is the place to go. read more

Incredible food, service and location/view. Honestly one of the best meals I've had in Tulum and we have tried everything local, all the way to Coba and Valladolid. Cocktails are great too. Recommendations: Fish Ceviche w/ a side of habanero hot sauce, Chicken Nachos, French Mule, and the Special Gold Margarita. This is a must try. Also stay at the resort. One of the best by far. The owners are some of the coolest, down-to-earth people I've ever met. Thanks Sanara! read more

The Real Coconut - Incredible view from the dining patio - Salad Near Me - Tulum, ROO

Amazing! From the food, to the service, to the aesthetic. They have great vegan options throughout the menu and their shakes are to die for! The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. The owner happened to be there and even stopped by to introduce himself. My friends & I started off with the chunky guacamole, chili mole shrimp tostadas (slightly spicy), and chicken bites. Everything was so fresh! The chicken bites were hardly seasoned, if they were, which is totally fine, because the dipping sauces that came with them were great! (I held on to them for the entrees). We got the barbecue chicken and the Californian fish tacos. That chicken was amazing! I held on to the dipping sauces from the chicken bites, but didn't even use them. That's how flavorful the barbecue chicken was. I strongly recommend The Real Coconut. read more

This is a beautiful restaurant to enjoy a meal but there were some setbacks. For one the prices are very high and a lot of the dishes are super small. The service is very slow, both the waiters and the kitchen. The quesadilla with coconut cheese was AMAZING but it's a super small dish, better as an appetizer although it's priced like an entree. The avocado toast is much larger and filling but the avocado is mixed with some sort of vinegar and had a strange sour taste so I definitely don't recommend it. I also ordered a salad with broccoli and it was tasted very strongly like just salt and vinegar. My friends ordered tacos and really enjoyed them but we're still hungry after. I think it's fine for restaurants to charge more for high quality and well crafted dishes but the real coconut missed the mark on a couple of items. read more

This is my absolute FAVORITE place to eat in Tulum!! Everything I ate was so fresh and healthy but also delicious beyond belief! Such simple yet delicious food! I loved the avocado toast and green smoothie in the morning or the chia parfait was also great! I'm pescaterian (vegan with some seafood) as well as gluten free so this place was such a safe place to eat for me! No dairy or gluten to worry about. I believe everything is local and organic. The staff was so sweet and accommodating. I loved all the various servers that helped us the many times we are there! read more

A bit on the expensive side, but great food with unique flavor. The atmosphere is amazing, and the service was top notch.

soooo good and so many vegan options!! We got their chips and guacamole, plantain quesadillas and their giant cookie with vanilla ice cream - all DELISHHHH!!!

Honestly this place was amazing. We got the broccoli and pea salad from the lunch menu and it was simply delicious. They lightly cooked the food (seemed grilled?) and were liberal with the seasoning--a common complaint of mine with "health" food. We added some sweet potato fries on the side--cooked perfectly--and the chocolate milkshake. All three of them were delicious, wholesome, and fresh. Perhaps more importantly, they escaped the traditional trappings of "health food" by seasoning everything well, having creative and tasty menu items, and being unafraid to incorporate healthy fats and salt. We also got the chocolate cake, which was very good but did have that "gluten free" texture that those of us who eat gluten tend to turn our noses at. Otherwise, it was very good and I loved that it had chocolate chips in it to change up the texture a little. Rachel, our server, was fantastic, attentive, and gave great recommendations! This place is a serious 5 star joint, though expect to pay quite a lot for each dish. Dinner mains seemed to run about $550 MX or ~$35 USD (though they also had tapas options). Lunch mains were about $250 MX (without added protein), or about $13 USD. Milkshake was ~$180 MX or ~$9 USD. Lots of non-alcoholic drinks available, though their cocktails would probably be incredible. read more

Love this place. We were staying next door so we came a lot. Had their breakfast and lunch multiple times. Their coffee is good (and this is coming from someone living in SF). The staff were super friendly and they had a high chair and crayons for our 1 year old. read more

Not only gluten free but completely delicious!! I have serve gluten allergy and I was so happy that I could eat without worrying about cross contamination. The chocolate mint smoothie and pancakes for breakfast was amazing! I think I had most things on the menu and everything was yummy! The view is also breathtaking. Cute restaurant and at night you can sit and hear the waves crashing while surrounded by lanterns. Perfect place! I highly recommend going here even if you aren't gluten free. My friend loved it too and he's not gluten free! read more

My boyfriend and I both agreed 5 stars without a doubt. We stayed at one of the Mahayana Tulum Beach Homes, so luckily for us, this was a quick 2 minute walk down the beach where it connects to the restaurant. We were immediately greeted by a lovely staff and were seated right away. Super windy-but we quickly moved onto the porch where we had the ocean front view and melted into the sofas where we ate our meal! Absolute heaven. We had to have stayed for 2 hours! The meal was so wonderful-my boyfriend had the catch of the day and I had the chicken. The coffee and dessert was the best way to end the evening. PS. I am a HUGE lemonade person. 10/10 would recomme the read more

Overpriced. We order the ceviche which was old, guacamole = it was ok. Best thing we're the yuca fries...

What a gem of a restaurant. I don't know where to begin. First of all, the place is insanely gorgeous. The Real Coconut is right on the beach in Tulum and is a nice place to eat any meal or just get a drink. The food here is all natural-and they mean it. There are dozens of vegetarian, vegan, gluten free and fair trade options for you to choose from so you can bring all the picky eaters here. I had the tacos with falafel as the protein and I'm not a vegetarian and I loved it. My friends ordered ceviche and enjoyed their meal as well. If you're lucky enough to be in beautiful Tulum, do yourself a favor and stop at the Real Coconut for an unforgettable meal. I was in Tulum for about 24 hours and ate here twice. 10/10 would eat here again, 10/10 would recommend to a friend. read more

Five stars for location and ambiance. Five stars for being a dedicated gluten free food menu (such a blessing for a traveling celiac). But I have to move it down a notch for being a little "health food-y" To be clear: I eat paleo and whole 30 much of the time, but that should not have to mean boring... this food was not bad, just too expensive to be this uneventful. We had dinner there twice, trying different things and it was always a little blah. That being said, the lunch menu is FAR more exciting than the dinner menu. The Caesar salad and vegan quesadillas (coconut tortillas and cheese) were really good. The healthy ice cream smoothies were also really good. To top it off, we ate this lunch on a bed on the beach and had a wonderful time. So, go if you're trying to stay gluten safe, but you may be better off trying the lunch. read more

Top 3 favorite spots in Tulum! Excellent place to start your day (morning or afternoon). Incredibly accommodating menu with a wide range of options and ability to customize order to suit your taste. The juice menu is TO DIE FOR. Have I mentioned the view??? BEACHIN* cannot wait to go back! Everything is fresh to death, unique flavor combos invigorate your taste buds to another level. The ginger shot is the best I've ever had, please bottle it and sell in the US! read more

I love the views , the service and the food. It's gluten free and dairy free and located right on the water. They use coconut milk and oil for the food but they do offer whole milk or almond milk for the lattes/cappuccino . I ordered the side of the coconut milk yogurt, avocado toast and rancheros eggs. You couldn't even notice the bread was gluten free . Everything was tasty. The waiter offered to make my latte again because I thought the iced latte was watered down and not strong enough. Second time around was perfect . Worth mentioning : they use Cuban coffee and also have an extensive list of fresh squeezed juices and smoothies made with coconut milk read more

My wife and I were very excited about this place because she is gluten free and it can sometimes be difficult to find good places that have a full offering of gluten free options. The setting was very chic, a cool, hip place right on the beach with a great view of the ocean. Coffee was good, but we were not that impressed with the food. It wasn't bad, but it lacked flavor and the gluten free breads that we hoped would make this a great place were hard and not very tasty. A good location, but we had hoped for more from the food. read more

Gluten Free, grain Free, and processed food free. What else can you want? My wife has some interesting dietary needs and The Real Coconut meets all of her needs. If you have strict dietary restrictions, this is the place for you. Needless to say we ate almost every meal at TRC while in Tulum last week. The nice thing is that there soo many options that you can easily try something different each time. Flavor, freshness and variety. Over the past few years, we have had our fair share of meals at TRC. The host Alexi was extremely friendly and helpful. The staff is very knowledgeable about their food and the preparation that goes in to it. They were attentive and welcoming as always. Didi has put together a great staff. The patio, beach vibe and food make this a must for a foodie. We can't wait for the Malibu CA opening in January. It will now be just a short car ride away. read more

We brought a group of 20+ to this restaurant on the beach last week and it was by far the best meal we had on beach road. The atmosphere is stunning, the pink moon rose over the water as we were eating, the fresh air kept us cool and the table they set up for us was breathtaking. The thing I would celebrate most about our large party experience was how organized they were and how much food they provided our group (with mixed dietary restrictions). From the second we walked in the staff placed small plate apps to keep us satisfied while taking our drink order. This made this so much more smooth. The hummus and our drinks were another level of delicious we did not experience anywhere else. Our dinner continued to hit the spot and just when we thought they had given us everything they had, more would arrive. I loved the little mushroom tacos. Every person on staff was so helpful and friendly and they were really ready for the challenge of a large group (which was not the case in the other places we ate on beach road that week). As a vegan, it was the happiest I felt about dinner all week - they know food well and it is worth every single penny. read more
