Cozumel

Guido's brings the authentic taste of Italy to the sun-kissed island of Cozumel. With top-notch Italian food from wood-oven pizza to lasagna, homemade pasta and fresh seafood, it's easy to understand why the beloved restaurant is an institution to locals and a lovely find to tourists.

Set a few strides from the main square, La Choza serves typical Yucatecan-Mexican dishes like "poc chuc" (a Mayan/Yucateco version of barbecued pork) and "mole poblano" (a sauce of chilies, fruits, nuts, spices, and chocolate) in an upbeat and relaxing atmosphere.

Burritos Gorditos is a great pit stop for something fast yet delightful. The menu offers around 21 types of burritos, from vegetarian to meat-based, as well as salad burritos, quesadillas, and tacos. Yucatan-style burritos filled with cochinita (pulled pork shoulder marinated and braised in achiote paste, orange juice, and lime) are also on offer.

No trip to Cozumel would be complete without paying a visit to El Sitio, a hole-in-the-wall eatery with red folding chairs specialising in tacos. Try out the "puerco torta" (pork sandwich) or the mouth-watering "camarón tacos" (shrimp tacos).

Considered the chicest restaurant on the island, Kinta offers traditional Mexican food with a modern twist. From the main course to dessert, Kinta knows how to pamper guests. The Midnight Pork Ribs accompanied by a refreshing drink is a combo to die for.

Buccanos is both a vibrant beach club where tourists can swim, snorkel, and enjoy the sun as well as a laid-back restaurant serving simple and modern Mexican food, with an infusion of local seafood and other street-food favourites. Everything here is made with fresh and authentic ingredients and their menu also features vegetarian and vegan options. Drop by Buccanos to sip some margaritas while watching the sunset or come here for a romantic dinner on their terrace overlooking the ocean and decorated with torches and candlelight.

Restaurant chain with locations in Mexico, the United States, and the Caribbean, Señor Frog's is known for its festive atmosphere, great food, gigantic drinks, and lots of singing and dancing. So, join the conga line and make the best out of your time here!
