El Autentico Descendiente Maya - Mérida

We went based on reviews that talked about fresh organic ingredients. Restaurant was out in the country and consisted of two tables outside next to an empty swimming pool. It was run by a young couple and the father or one of them. It was dark and you felt like you were eating in the middle of nowhere.The young couple were enthusiastic and the products were fresh and very tasty but the cuisine was uneven. There was almost no selection. For appetizers we had panuchos and salbutes (essentially yucatecan tacos served flat with pickled onion, chicken and in one case beans (Panuchos) the other case not. They were quite tasty. For the main course there were only two choices (if I remember it correctly). One was the famous Mayan grilled pork dish (I forgot the name) which was prepared well and had good sides), the other was pollo pibil, which was not prepared especially well. It was neither particularly tender nor particularly tasty. Mexican red wine by the glass was good. We did not stay for dessert. I had the impression that the people running the restaurant, for all their organic commitment, were over their heads.

Estuvimos hace unos días en este pequeño restaurante a las afueras de la ciudad de Mérida, El lugar es muy agradable es al aire libre, cuenta con una alberca hamacas para descansar, la comida deliciosa platillos regionales realmente yucatecos con un sabor único probamos los panuchos, papadzules y el pollo pibil y de tomar están los diferentes cócteles pero les recomendamos tomar la hecha a base de chaya, pero para los que les guste el vino también tienen algunas opciones y después de esa rica comida, no olviden tomarse un delicioso café maya, Pepe el propietario es quien se los prepara en la mesa como ya se imaginaran todo un espectáculo (flameado)El servicio de este lugar es único se los recomendamos cuando visiten Mérida no olviden visitarlos.

We were treatend so well and enjoyed the maya food and the family atmosphere of this very nice small place near Merida. If you stay around Merida you must try this place and the so smart family.

En vacances au Mexique et de passage à Merida, nous nous sommes fait conseillés ce restaurant. Nous n'avons pas été déçus. Quel bel accueil, une famille souriante et une cuisine pleine de saveurs. Mention spéciale pour le café maya, dont la préparation est un véritable show (enflammé ;)) et la dégustation...un réel plaisir !!! Un charmant lieu au calme loin de l agitation de Merida. Une piscine est à disposition des clients.

Ce restaurant familial est sans hésiter le coup de coeur de notre voyage au Mexique. Une cuisine délicieuse, gouteuse et préparée avec soin par la famille. Belle vitrine du savoir faire yucathèque. La carte décline les grands classiques régionaux: poc chuc, pollo pibil, papazules…sans oublier le cocktail à base de chaya et de tequila. Tout est frais et cuisiné avec beaucoup d'amour. Les aromates, les légumes et les fruits proviennent en grande partie du jardin. Don Pancho, le grand père, se fera un plaisir de vous faire partager son savoir sur les bienfaits des plantes, vous initiera également au tissage d'un hamac et, peut être même, poussera la chansonnette…Sur réservation, la famille donne également des cours de cuisine yucathèque; mieux vaut manger léger le midi pour honorer comme il se doit ce menu gargantuesque.Vous pouvez également profiter de la piscine et vous détendre dans les hamacs.La famille se plie en 4 pour vous faire passer un moment très agréable. Une vraie générosité de leur part tant sur le plan gustatif qu'humain.Nous y sommes retournés plusieurs fois durant notre séjour. Ce restaurant est loin des restaurants "attrape- touristes", souvent pas très bons et sans âme…Bref, sI vous êtes dans les environs de Mérida, nous vous conseillons vivement ce restaurant authentique et plein de charme…

Tenemos reseñas que hablan de ingredientes orgánicos frescos. El restaurante estaba en el terreno y constaba de dos mesas fuera de una piscina vacía. Estaba dirigido por una pareja joven y el vater o uno de ellos. Estaba... oscuro y sentías que no estabas comiendo en medio de la nada. La joven pareja estaba encantada y los productos eran frescos y muy sabrosos, pero la cocina estaba desigual. Casi no había elección. para los aperitivos teníamos panuchos y salbutes (esencialmente tacos yukatecos servidos planos con bamboleo especiado, eh y en salvado de otoño (panuchos), el otro caso no. Estaban bastante sabrosos. Para el plato principal solo hubo dos decisiones (si mal no recuerdo) correctamente), uno era el famoso cerdo maya a la parrilla (se me olvidó el nombre) que tenía bien preparado y buen acompañamiento,) el otro era proxy pibil, que no estaba especialmente bien preparado. no era ni particularmente delicado ni particularmente sabroso. Los vinos tintos mexicanos en la copa eran buenos. No nos quedamos a tomar el postre. Tuve la impresión de que las personas que dirigen el restaurante estaban por encima de todas sus obligaciones orgánicas.
