Serves meat, vegan options available. Typical Yucatecan restaurant in the city center. Reported to have several vegan choices and also reported that the beans are cooked in lard. Staff are helpful to vegans, so please be sure and inquire. Removed April 2023: Limited vegan options.

Very poor veggie food

The best thing from here was the chaya and lime water. Very little vegan options and they were all pretty bad

was served pork lard

Be very careful when asking for food here. We asked very clearly in Spanish about the vegan options and we're still served food with lard. As a vegan there is basically no option. The red salsa is made with manteca (pork lard) and other vegetarian options like the tamales might also be.

Cons: Uses animal lard in many dishes

No good veg options

They had 3 vegetarian options and I tried 2. The food just wasn't good and it was pretty pricey for what I got. Did not live up to the hype online.

Do not be fooled not veg friendly

Have eaten hear several times and twice my "vegan" meal had meat pop up in it and they didn't even care. It's a tourist trap and they say yes its vegan just to sell the food. They don't care. If you want delish vegan Mexican food Pancho Maize is my choice
