Where to eat Mexican food in Holbox Island: The Best Restaurants and Bars
Best Mexican restaurants nearby. Discover the best Mexican food in Holbox Island. View Menus, Photos and Reviews for Mexican restaurants near you.. Flamingos and pelicans and herons…oh my! Holbox Island is beloved by bird nerds for its population of exotic avian life. Perched near the Yucatan Peninsula, the island is also a hot spot for whale shark viewing, and kiteboarders love the shallow waters and wide beaches. The white sand streets are relatively unspoiled, as most tourists prefer to party it up in nearby Cancun. A splash in Yalahao Lagoon is about as loco as it gets.

The food was mediocre and cost more. Fish tacos and shrimp tacos tasted more like panko fried onion tacos. We paid double to eat here and less food. The service was horrible, they took forever to get our order, give us drinks and bring out the food. We asked for no onions on the taco and I heard the waiter tell the cook no onions (sin cebolla) and they put extra onions which really sucked because it was all over and left the taste. I picked out as much as I could but there was just so much. This place seems more like a locals place for the people who live there- I am Mexican and speak fluent spanish so I do not think it was a language barrier. to top it off they tip themselves but not giving you back the right change. I would not eat here even if it was free. There is many places on the island that will welcome you as a tourist, skip this one.

My boyfriend and I both had pasta. Pasta Mariscos was good, pasta with lobster was not, lobster was terribly overcooked, such a shame. Cocktails are ok. Waiters were kind of pushy. We got wrong bill and our waiter was hesitant to show us the details. The owner came with the right bill, without apologies. We had a feeling they were trying to get us to pay more, but we have no proof. 5% surcharge for payment with Visa. There are better options in Holbox.

The restaurant is located on the beach and is really beautiful. The food was very good and the prices resonable. We also loved the waiters - we were there with kids and they offered to make a special spaghetti - with butter sauce only, so the kids liked it to.

Mexican restaurant with 2 floors run by locals for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Also we have the only real sport bar in the island with big screens upstairs, with games like cards, domino. A lot of flavor, great staff and the best burger in the downtown!!

Super fun place!! Great owners who make it an amazing experience! Theyâre extremely helpful and friendly and the drinks are great:) Had a really fun time watching the Game of Thrones there. It felt like a big family and kind community that night! They even had cake to end the night. Would definitely recommend and canât wait to go back to La Botana when we return to Holbox.

We cale.in the evening for drinks only. We sat on the terrasse which is nice and our order was taken immediatly. Though it took us 20 minutes to get it... Ok meanwhile we got like 10 nachos of bad quality and some industrial mayonaise to dip them in.When we asked for the bill we specified we wanted change to give a proper tip. The waitress brought us back a single 50 pesos bill forcing us to leave her a much bigger tip than deserved the wait.The restaurant was full and you can't make me beleive that no one paid with some coins or some small bills. This attitude is despicable and we won't come back. There are much better place in holbox with live music for example.

We arrived and were greeted by lovely staff who were punctual and professional. The food was nothing other than tremendous! The sharing platter was our particular favourite and brought a real variety of taste. I would throughly recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants a bit of a different culture whilst on holbox.

First time in Holbox, frequent Tulum visitor. My overall experience with the food in Holbox was disappointing. I wasn't sure what to expect from Milpa. I was stunned, the meal was amazing! The chef commands recognition each plate was a work of culinary art! One of the best fish meals I've ever had.

We had our first ceviche here! It was delicious and the service was beyond fantastic! We especially loved the off the street vibe and atmosphere. Our server gave us free mezcal shots at the end of our meal! Thank you for the hospitality and fresh food!
