Nice yucatan restaurant to dine in. The sopa de arroz is just flavor rice with cooked banana. It is really good tho. I got the sopa de limon it is nice. The sunday special with chicken has a good sauce. There was a band playing music when I visited at 14h on sunday.

You cannot come to Merida Yuc, and not visit Los Almendros. It is a place of traditional taste and gathering. I recommend their home specialties and “Jugos Naturales” to get your day or evening going. The staff, just like about every establishment in Merida is friendly and courteous. Located a few blocks from the city center, makes this a convenient walk without having to grab a taxi.

My wife and I ate there for the last night we were in Merida. I had the Relleno Negro, it was complex in taste, a bit spicy, a real delight. It was Sunday afternoon early dinner, but there was a good crowd. It was highly recommend, and I must say it was some of the best I had the pleasure to try.

A local place, without a doubt the best local food. Price ratio was also excellent, location was great and food was perfect. Yesterday I went to Chaya maya, but los Almendros is MUCH MUCH BETTER than the other place. Service was excellent too.

Wonderful Yucatan food at good prices. Excellent service and atmosphere. It feels like a cozy home with comfort food. I thought this was better than all the other restaurants serving Yucatan food. The quality was so much better and the flavors spot on. We will be back to try all the items on the menu. We loved the longaniza. It was smoker and richer than many I've tried. The Panuchos were the best I've had. Packed with beans.
