About The Author
This is a good local restaurant. A little high priced for some locals but has good food. If it was a little more gourmet they could play more to a tourist market.
This is a good tip especially since our condo is around the corner from this restaurant. It looks like a nice spacious casual Mexican place. We remember when it was the other taco restaurant. Thanks for letting us know about the new owners.
We checked out this new restaurant. It was good Mexican. I hope they can survive because it is a large space to fill and there were only about 10 people there.
Looks like a nice restaurants and close to my condo. I will add it to my list of places to check out this winter.
Would you recommend this restaurant to watch NFL football games while having a nice meal?
Hello Allan
If they have it playing but it does not get a bog crowd of football fans here. It is better at one of the sports bars. Of course you wont get great food at most bars, so many eat and then snacks and drinks during the game. We have sports bars here in our guide. https://everythingplayadelcarmen.com/the-everything-guide-to-the-best-bars-in-playa-del-carmen/
That’s ok. I would always trade better food over a loud sports bar. Thanks!
