Matcha mom:
Matcha Mama is a great place to grab a smoothie bowl. They use fresh tropical fruits to create the craziest flavor combinations. If you’re in Tulum, I highly recommend it!
Original love:
Tulum has options to suit all food preferences. There is an incredible place called Raw Love that specializes in vegan dishes. They have the best homemade kombucha, so refreshing after being in the sun all day.
Raidra and Italdo:
I always want pizza. If you want Italian food, La Hydra and Italdo are places to visit. An added bonus is that Italido is located next to the bar and has an incredible wine list!
Real coconut:
Real Coconut is a great place to enjoy a meal with a beach view. Their menu is filled with fresh local meats and seafood. You’ll find everything from ceviche to grilled chicken to plantain tacos.
Laila:
Another great vegetarian restaurant with upbeat music, lively atmosphere and incredible guacamole. Even if you’re not a vegetarian, Laylo is definitely worth a try.
Chapaneca snacks:
My mom and I had some crazy tacos, chips, and guacamole here. This place is a perfect mix of locals and tourists. The fast service makes it ideal if you need a quick lunch between activities.
Mezzanine:
The mezzanine is a very luxurious place with incredible views. The restaurant is located in the mezzanine hotel. The food is Thai but there is a lot of choice on the menu. They also have a separate menu if you are gluten free or vegetarian. This would also be a great date spot!
Burrito Love:
If the name isn’t already obvious, Taco Amor has some incredible burritos. They are huge and the perfect lunch after a long morning of swimming around Tulum or exploring.
overall:
This is probably one of my favorite spots in Tulum. I’ve eaten here many times and tried everything from French toast to fresh juices to the creamiest labneh with grilled zucchini. I think part of what made the experience so surreal was the atmosphere. It’s located in a tranquil boutique hotel in the middle of the jungle. It’s a great place to escape from some of the more touristy destinations.
Gitiano Beach:
There are so many incredible flavor combinations at Gitiano Beach. I tried everything from fresh watermelon, avocado, cilantro salad to churros!
