3) 🐝 Birria de la 30 🐝
Located on 30th avenue, this small and friendly restaurant has excellent tacos and quesadillas.
Their best taco is birria’s taco (of course). Birria is a way of preparing mutton meat, marinated with a preparation based on types of chili peppers, seasonings and salt. If you never tried birria don’t worry, we’re sure you’ll love it!

Tulum
1) Taqueria Honorio
This is the most famous taqueria in Tulum, and they absolutely earned their reputation! 💯
The secret is the love and patience they put into cooking and seasoning the “lechón”... it’s seasoned in a brick oven for about 12 hours 🕐. Doors open really early, at 6.30 in the morning, and they usually close by 1:30pm when they run out of ingredients!

2) Antojitos La Chiapaneca
This restaurant is always full of tourists and locals, and the mix of cultures is a good sign. It means everyone likes their tacos! Their pastor tacos with pineapple are terrific and their best-seller.
A plus? Their prices are a really good deal and sometimes they have live music performances.
