El Fogon is arguably the best authentic Mexican food in Playa del Carmen. The restaurant's specialty is Pastor. Pastor (slow roasted pork) is not available legally in restaurants in the United States because it is not cooked at a high enough temperature. However, in Mexico, this is not an issue. At El Fogon, you can get a pastor taco for the US equivalent of 50 cents. Everything on the menu is delicious and reasonably priced. Four people can leave completely stuffed for less than 30 USD (total!!!!).

They specialize in vegetarian, salads, pastas, soups, fresh fish, meat and poultry. This is one of our favorite restaurants. Located in a garden patio, it almost feels like your food was picked fresh right there on the spot. The atmosphere is very relaxed and since it's right on 5th Avenue, it's also great for people watching. We recommend this to anyone who loves fresh food and is ideal for vegetarians, those on a diet or who love to eat healthy.

Open for lunch, they specialize in shrimp tacos and ceviches. We eat here frequently. The prices are great, the food always fresh and the service fast. The place usually is packed by 2pm for the standard lunch crowd. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a delicious meal on the cheap at a local hot spot.

The chocolate is made fresh and is always fantastic. They also have a selection of brownies, white chocolate and homemade ice cream. Their small gift section has a nice selection of homemade Mexican chocolates to bring back home.

Wonderful pasta, salads and smoothies in a no-frills, laid back, very local neighborhood. This is really a hidden gem and is usually packed. Owner operator, Tony, is usually on site for a friendly smile or helpful recommendation. Pasta dishes are quite unique and expect distinct dishes in a variety of flavors. Pricing is great and portions are large.

This Italian restaurant has quickly become one of the most popular restaurants in Playa. It is so good I would not recommend going without a reservation - and in Playa del Carmen, that is practically unheard of. The mixed drinks tend to be spotty, but the delicious food and great service certainly make up for any potentially watered-down cocktails.
