    Birria taco plate with charro beans and okra.
    Andrew M.

    I made my first visit to this local eatery and had an Outstanding lunch with some coworkers. Service was very attentive. The chips and queso were excellent and my birria tacos were delicious. I like the pickled onions and the dipping sauce. The side of charro beans and the stewed okra were really good. Very nice serving so I didn't leave hungry. Definitely recommend checking Tulum out.

    Chicken Milanesa Pancake Tacos - The kiddo loves them!!!
    Coleman O.

    Tolum is a high scale Mexican restaurant located in Spanish Fort on Hwy 31 near the Eastern Shore Mall. When you walk in, it just feels like you are going to have an awesome culinary experience. We have eaten at Tolum several times and it never disappoints. I typically order the Lobster Omelet, and the wife the Shrimp and Grits. Both dishes are amazing!!! We went back last Sunday after church to have some brunch. I am glad that we did!!! I ordered the Tolum Eggs Benedict and the wife her usual Shrimp and Mexican Grits. The kiddo ordered the Chicken Milanesa Pancake Tacos which is just their version of Chicken and Waffles but with Pancakes folded like Tacos. Again, we were treated with amazing food and service. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

    The food, the service in the ambience were amazing! Not your typical Mexican restaurant. Very unique, dining experience!

    This place is sexy and swanky. The food is fresh, well seasoned, and elevated from your typical Mexican cuisine. The service was fast and friendly. The only reason I gave it four stars was because the waiter serving the table next to us was talking negatively about how the menu changes and the management to the patrons. Also, the dessert was a bit lackluster. We had the Mexican bread pudding. I have already decided that I am going back. The food is well worth it. I might sit at that sexy bar next time.

    The staff is always so welcoming and the space is very accommodating for large families like ours! I've never had a bad dish here, I would recommend trying something different each time. This time we ordered the cowboy burrito from the brunch menu and the Al Ajillo Shrimp (served with rice); so yummy!

    The moment you walk inside, it's absolutely stunning, tropical, elegant, and such a vibe. Even the chairs are insanely comfortable. It's definitely a fun spot, especially for birthdays, they come out singing and make it a whole moment. We tried so many things, but our favorite by far was the birria tacos . The service was great, the restrooms were clean and nice, and honestly... you won't find another restaurant like this anywhere around here.

    Tres leche

    Holy cow. We had a spontaneous lunch get-together and chose Tulum for their diverse and unique menu. Every boxed was checked throughout our whole experience. The service (Victor) could not have been more friendly and helpful when asking about menu items and attentiveness. The owner was super nice and genuinely appreciative of our patronage. The atmosphere is everything I love when dining out, inviting, low lighting, tasteful decor, comfy seating. The food's freshness was glaringly obvious compared to so many of our other local establishments that specialize in lower quality. EVERYTHING our table ordered (four top) was perfection in flavor, freshness, and creativity. The chili relleno had a wonderful picadillo meat filling with the best pepper -to- coating ratio. The birria... omg - the real deal, the way good birria is supposed to be. I had the pink enchiladas because it sounded so different in interesting. It was amazing; light creamy sauce that did t feel heavy and carried a lovely beet flavor but balanced, shrimp perfectly cooked, the whole plate was gorgeous. We also sample the poblano soup which was delightfully different and shared the tres leche cake and bread pudding around the table. I can't stress enough the difference freshness, quality, and pride makes when we're so limited on dining options in our area. We drove over from West Mobile and it will be worth all the subsequent trips we'll be making to keep working through their ample and diverse menu.

    Beef tacos
    Tina S.

    This place is a very upscale restaurant. We started with a white cheese dip, delicious! Our server seemed a little preoccupied at first and wasn't all that friendly but he came around. I ordered the beef tacos and my friend ordered the taco salad with chicken. I didn't get a chance to take a pic of hers. They were both delicious! The shell that her taco salad came in was perfection!! It had such a good flavor and crunch!! My tacos came in a flour tortilla which was good but l would have preferred the crunchy tacos. Such a beautiful presentation of the food!!

    Tulum is setting standards for fine dining in the panhandle! Yes, I said panhandle, because if I'm willing to drive from Pensacola to Spanish Fort for mexican and a marg, then I am claiming it as partly ours. Be sure to pay them a visit if you're looking for a unique dining experience with seasonal menu items that are sure to impress you every time. 100/10 for food 100/10 for service 100/10 for ambiance 1,000/10 for AUTHENTICITY 1,000/10 for EXPERIENCE Thank you Dillan for your attentive service and wonderful recommendations. And thank you to Tulum for bringing finesse to our Sunday Costco trip. We can't wait to come back and try your rotating specials and another, new, flavorful, monthly margarita. 01-26-2025

    New to the area, based in Daphne we were doing the usual scoping out of local spots and came across this one. The reviews were positive and perked our interest. Having lived in the SW we were familiar with the menu options. I can break it down into "likes" and "not so much likes" .. Likes - nice surroundings, easy playing jazz in the background, clean, upscale look, nice table setting and good hor d'ourves (one of the bright spots). Reasonble pricing for the lunch menu options. The main menu seems to offer a wide variety with prices ave around $20. Not so much likes - we ordered from the lunch option slots and both went for the quesadilla special (one chicken .. one steak). The food arrived after some wait .. and honestly looked very plain on their arrival, no lettace/tomato on the plate just beans, rice and the quesadilla. It would have been nice to see some color on the plates. The spice level was a 2 (1-10 scale) and was very plain generally, not visually inticing or memorable taste. On the drink side my lunch partner ordered a coffee which was luke warm at it's best. Our waiter was fine initially with our order but after that no drink refills, no checkin with us and when we finished we waited .. waited and finally had to chase him down to get our bill to exit. Summary - not a spot we are likely to return to sadly.

    I had the carne Asada tacos! Yummy

    My neighbor mentioned that one of my favorite new local Mexican restaurants also has amazing hamburgers. I rarely eat burgers because I'm supposed to avoid gluten ( so please don't tell my doctor I cheated and it was so worth it!!!) Oh my gosh!!! THE Tastiest hamburger Ever!!! Absolutely juicy it was full of fantastic flavor. I highly recommend it. I sat at the bar and chatted with the bartenders Eaton and Jonathan while I devoured my delicious meal! Naturally the service, ambiance, cleanliness, and everything else was perfecto. I should mention I'm an iced tea snob, my tea was also great. I'm pretty thin but if I ever get fat it's Tulum's fault they are only 1/2 mile from my home. That's not even fair because every thing on the menu is awesome.

    Pink Enchiladas

    Great experience here last weekend. It was our first time and the chef and owner served us. We will be back!

    Telum offers a dining experience that's a far cry from the traditional Mexican eateries you might be used to, taking a more modern, high-end approach to the flavors and ingredients of Mexico and other cuisines. While it's not exactly an authentic Mexican restaurant, it blends contemporary techniques with a vibrant mix of global influences, creating a unique fusion that's sure to intrigue. We were sat quickly, but since we requested a booth and the server was double sat, it took a while to be greeted and drink order taken but once it happened the service was great!

    Do yourself a favor and order the lamb chops. They were the best I've ever eaten. All the sides and desserts were outstanding also.

I didn't have it , but I felt it was necessary to mention. Onto this corn appetizer- it was nonsense- a piece of corn sitting in corn with mayo- there is no toasted quality to it whatever- the idea is there, but the execution was poor. Now on to the main disappointment- the chicken fajitas . They get their chicken the same place The Chinese restaurant gets their chicken and then they just throw it into a pan with peppers and onions, and a tomato, it was absolutely terrible. Completely uneditable and made my stomach hurt, sitting there, looking at it. When I mentioned it to the waitress, she said, we just make it like that.. we just make it like that, how nice. She definitely saw the plate sitting on the table when I asked for the check and then I had had the nerve to ask if I wanted togo boxes. Classic corporate training at its best.. The two honorable mentions were the fact that they decided to mop the floor with bleach in the booth right next to us and it's obvious that you just don't do that. Anybody running a decent restaurant would know that you don't throw bleach all over the floor when people are eating right next to it, regardless of what the cleaning needs are. Runner up was the staff sitting in the booth across from us, talking extremely loud. Just avoid with all costs.

After our last adventure at El Compost Pile on Schillinger we went back to the trusty local in Tillmans Corner. What a GREAT DECISION. Crowded as possible on a Friday night, might have been the blessing here. Food was fresh and hot, but I am getting ahead of myself. Seated quickly and greeted by Fred, a hero in the food service industry. He was very patient with us and our off the path ordering style and questions tonight. Let us know that the kitchen was running a little behind and our order was behind a table of what appeared to be 20 people. Well Fred's calculation was off, we were served very quickly, as Lil Pug pointed out, he set the bar lower than expected and left us feeling special. Food, drinks, appetizer cheese dip, everything was great. Fred was a superstar and made us feel glad to be there, very personable and attentive. I sound like a fanboy, maybe I am now, who knows. Not often I drop close to a hundred for 3 meals (plus tip) and feel like the experience was justified, but the service tonight was worth it all. Not sure what's going on in Tillmans Corner lately, but the service we have been getting in the area is crazy good. Will we return? Hell yes, and will ask for Fred. If he isn't working it won't be a deal breaker, but if he is working I will not miss the chance to experience his care. I sure hope the Manager takes a moment to let him know how we appreciate his service and he is a complete asset to this spot. Ya'll keep him happy so he stays. Please. Apaga el poder en el castillo de Putterrier, así que vamos a comer. Tomó la decisión democrática y fue por la comida mexicana. Después de nuestra última aventura en El Compost Pile en Schillinger, volvemos al local de confianza en Tillmans Corner. Qué GRAN DECISIÓN. Lo más lleno posible un viernes por la noche, podría haber sido la bendición aquí. La comida estaba fresca y caliente, pero me estoy adelantando. Se sentó rápidamente y fue recibido por Fred, un héroe de la industria de servicios de alimentos. Fue muy paciente con nosotros y nuestro estilo de pedidos fuera del camino y preguntas esta noche. Háganos saber que la cocina estaba un poco atrasada y nuestro pedido estaba detrás de una mesa de lo que parecían ser 20 personas. Bueno, el cálculo de Fred estaba mal, nos sirvieron muy rápido, como señaló Lil Pug, puso el listón más bajo de lo esperado y nos dejó sintiéndonos especiales. Comida, bebidas, aperitivo, salsa de queso, todo estuvo genial. Fred fue una superestrella y nos hizo sentir contentos de estar allí, muy agradable y atento. Sueno como un fanboy, tal vez lo sea ahora, quién sabe. No es frecuente que caiga cerca de cien por 3 comidas (más propina) y siento que la experiencia estaba justificada, pero el servicio de esta noche valió la pena. No estoy seguro de lo que está pasando en Tillmans Corner últimamente, pero el servicio que hemos estado recibiendo en la zona es increíblemente bueno. ¿Devolveremos? Claro que sí, y preguntaré por Fred. Si no está trabajando, no será un factor decisivo, pero si está trabajando, no perderé la oportunidad de experimentar su cuidado. Espero que el gerente se tome un momento para hacerle saber cómo apreciamos su servicio y que es un activo completo para este lugar. Lo mantendrás feliz para que se quede. Por favor.
