The absolute beat dining experience. Everything deserves more than 5 stars. From the personal welcome at the entrance to the final surprise dessert everything was spectacular. The food and service were top notch and the ambience is stunning. Gracias to all for making our afternoon very memorable.

About the restaurant

We are a sensorial journey.
Amazing mixes of intentionally selected items.
An eclectic, mysterious and relaxed bar.
This is a secret and special place, where the spiritual and the material meets and combine creating magic.
A trip to ourselves, where the liquor reveals its secrets from the hand of the mixologist and the kitchen from our chef complements it perfectly.
A hidden space where we are not afraid of the unknown, where everything feeds the spirit...
and, of course, the body too.

El Lagarto de Oro is a very good spot. Chill & welcoming vibe, friendly service (Thank You Carol), good beer list, and a delicious menu. We enjoyed their Salpicon de Chicarra con Pulpo a la Longaniza.

Good and service both excellent. It is quite a long way out of the centre of Merida (30 mins by taxi) especially in the evening rush hour. Music and videos on large screen tv’s can also be a bit distracting. We had the tempura squid and fillet mignon to share which were both excellently prepared, cooked and presented. Porfirios ice cream cart to finish was fantastic.

I love all of Bran's restaurants and Casa Del Pastel is no exception. The food is great, staff is well-trained. I just wish the music weren't so loud. We get together with friends to have conversations and the noise level on the front and DJ side of the terrace is grating. That is also true of the beach.
