Cozumel Restaurant Guide

A charming secret garden setting tucked away on a quiet street, El Rincon de Addy makes breakfast dreams out of hotcake batter. A brief five minutes from town center, this restaurant starts your day off with the perfect combination of natural beauty and deliciousness. Lucious fresh juices, house baked cakes, seasonal fruits, egg plates and their signature silver dollar hotcakes are divine. If you are looking for something special, try the huevos motuleños! As an added bonus, the owner is an incredible artist and she has hand-painted almost every surface in this oasis of a garden. She likes to joke with the customers that everything you see is for sale, except for her! If you are seeking a tranquil outdoor spot to start your day, El Rincon de Addy is the place to be.

Famous for their delicious (and cheap!) street tacos and their pozole (a scrumptious soup of hominy, tomato, pork and more), if you are looking for authentic, homecooked Mexican food, don’t miss this open air place. Los Tacotales, formerly Los Otates, is a favorite for locals and visitors alike. We love the al pastor tacos with pineapple, but everything is delicious and very affordable.

Slinging homemade classic churros from a basket on his bicycle! Javier is a legend around here and his churros are exactly what you want to eat, any time of day. You just have to find him!

Good vibes and great live music give this Mexican Caribbean style restaurant top marks. Lovely ocean views and great people-watching when seated outside on the balcony. The secret to this place is that they also serve brunch! Located easy walking distance from town center on Avenue Rafael.

Often described as “simply fabulous” this famous Cozumel Mexican restaurant will have you coming back for more.

Novena Ola is located atop the Cozumel Art Museum, on a gorgeous veranda overlooking the Caribbean Sea.

Delectable offerings from breakfast to cocktails, Novena Ola will have you returning again and again.
