Cute and delicious - Edit
Great menu, loved the vibe. We had the cheese burger with the Beyond meat patties, highly recommend! Although they did charge extra for that patty, but it came with fries. We had milkshakes as well, we had the strawberry and the snickers flavors, they were very good. We really loved the experience and the food.

Amazing fast food - Edit
Some of the best vegan fast food I've had. The milkshake was thick and creamy, the jalapeno poppers were hot and cheesy, and the burger and fries were really tasty. Will be comparing all other burgers to this for a long time
Read moreThe BBQ sauce was the only weak thing here, it was very thin and sweet. Not my jam. But still great despite this.

Burgers - Edit
The milkshakes were awesome and my non vegan friend said the house made burger was the best veggie burger he's tried yet! Even the kids loved it!

Best Milkshake I’ve ever had - Edit
I got the loaded fries with beyond meat, a chocolate milkshake, and a hot dog. It was probably the best vegan American food meal I’ve ever had. And that’s saying a lot coming from a socal resident visiting here. The staff was also so kind and the vibe in the restaurant was great😄

A Must in Playa del Carmen! - Edit
Comet 984 is one of those unique restaurants that you have to check out for yourself! From the 50's inspired decor, the juke box playing timely music, and everything Americana you truly feel like you stepped into another world. It's not just vidually stunning, but the food is amazing too! The burgers, fries, and milkshakes were pulled straight out of the American 50's! We especially loved the milkshakes! Where else can you get such a tasty vegan milkshake in PDC?!

Good Food but failed to service - Edit
We have known this place for years. Have been coming back every time we are around. 10 people. Spending thousands of pesos. But we have experienced it 3 times now, that they weren't willing to serve us food because of the ridiculously early closing time. In my opinion completely wrong mentioning being in a downhill tourist area. I don't get the mentality or the thoughts of doing that.

The best junk food in town - Edit
In every opportunity we go there because the food is so good and also the service. It’s fast and kind.
Read morePortions are enough to satiate your palate and stomach.
Most of the ingredients/ dishes are home made which is healthier.
If you have the chance to visit Playa del Carmen you must give it a try.
100% recommended

Cute 50s Diner - Edit
We took my father in law here hoping it would be nostalgic for him and it was a cute little spot. We loved that they had burgers and hot dogs. My son loved the fries. Definitely indulge in a milkshake, it’s one of the best we’ve had. #Veganuary

Step Back in Time But Go Vegan - Edit
Are you a vegan that's craving a burger and fries? Step back in time and visit Comet 984! The jukebox plays some familiar oldies sung in Spanish, which is really a cool addition. I was afraid that a place like this would only offer Beyond or Impossible but that is not the case. Many of the meat alternative items are made in-house. Try the Super Krusty Burger -- it's full of flavor.

Perfecto - Edit
Very delicious! It was an easy bike ride to get here from Mahekal and we were able to use the bike rack next door. Atmosphere is super cute and the music is fun. Our group ordered the hamburger, breaded chicken sandwich, fish sandwich, peanut butter shake, chocolate shake, and snickers cheesecake. All were very delicious; highly recommend this place!!

As a vegan would you recommend staying at the Mahekal?

For the resort alone, yes! We did not do the all inclusive option though since we wanted to eat at so many restaurants on 5th Avenue. But resort itself is the most beautiful one we have ever stayed at. Enjoy!

Super yummy burgers e milkshakes - Edit
Foi uma experiência deliciosa, com direito inclusive a retorno. De hamburger provei o Comet, que estava muito bom. Os nachos também; vale a pena pedir eles de acompanhamento (ainda mais no Mexico, né?)
Read moreOs milkshakes merecem um parágrafo à parte. Mesmo se você já tiver lanchado, vale à pena experimentar um shake de sobremesa. Meu destaque vai para o de Snickers.
A decoraçāo da lanchonete ajuda na boa experiência - tipo uma hamburgueria americana vintage

Decor and music is cool!
