    Looking out from Lol Ha

    This one is known as the Grand Daddy of the Akumal Restaurants, and it's our favorite.
    Huge Palapa with inside tables, outside tables, beach chairs and the beach right there.
    A little more expensive than La Buena Vida, but I always feel like, and I always do, spend hours here. For one, the food is huge, 2nd, the view is so grand. Everyone is so laid back here, you can't help but just slow down.
    Everything is good, but the Lol Ha Burger alone is worth the trip. chees, chiles, mushrooms, avocado. We always forget, you can split one and be just fine.
    don't miss this place. really.
    Even the bathrooms, under an huge cabana are cool!
    Updated 2007. I still go here at least twice a trip--and i always get the burgers, despite the price increase (it is big enough for two, I am not kidding.

    It's all about the dang Burgers for me--and a good happy hour.

  • Big Bay. One restaurant - Akumal
    Big Bay. One restaurant

    Oh boy. I had heard about this place, but never really pictured it like this. One huge bay...one little restauarant on it.
    That is it.
    That is Oscar Y Lalo's.
    The lost 80 palms to Hurricane Emily..
    The replanted 200 more.
    this place is great.
    A bit pricey, but worth it, just for the view.
    foods good too!

    Updated 2007--they just moved from the beach to the 307. Half the beauty of this restaurant is the view of the bay. That's gone, and I cannot imagine spending the high prices we paid before just to look at that bay---which now is not on the bay.

    Conch in garlic and butter
    We split that and an order of chicken taquitos to keep the bill down.
    Both were outstanding.
    In fact, best conch I've ever had.

    A lot of people complain about the lack of cheap eats in Akumal. We'll here's ONE solution. Connected to the Super Chomack market, this is nothing but a counter and some chairs...underneath a palapa roof, and some good talent in the kitchen for the things that hit the spot!
    Updated 2007---ya still can't lose by eating here. Great food, great prices, no atmosphere. It does not matter.

    We watched them peel the avocados to make fresh guacamole. We ordered the pork tacos and the Poc Chuk...(a Mayan Style Pork)I think they were cooked the same way, and both were delicious!
    It was raining while we were there, and that roof kept us totally dry while we lunched and had a shot of the Mayan Honey Liquer we bought at the Super Chomak market next door.

    Food in Akumal can run up a tab pretty quick. You're not only paying for the food, but for the atmosphere and the ocean front views.
    So where to get a cheap lunch?
    Lucy's!
    Just across from the super chomak, inside the arch. Two shrimp tacos 3.00..and they are to DIE for!
    Plus Empanadas...3 for 3.50!!
    Thats a good meal for two for just over 10 bucks. Worth every penny.
    Lucy is a good soul too, who works with animal rescue, so please donate to the cause of the beach dogs.
    2007 update...prices have risen a little, but its still one of my faves. Never miss it! Try the ice cream also!

    I had heard all about the french toast with pecan maple syrup and bananas..but it was worth all the talk...
    however
    the huevos rancheros were the best EVER.
    Would eat here every day to try everyhing

    Updated 2007. Still great, and still breakfast and bakery worthy without a doubt!

    This restaurant was right across from our cabana.
    It is a large, open air, thatched roofed dining room that sits up on stilts above the sand.
    Great food and friendly service.

    Mexican scrambed eggs. Seafood.
    Flaming dishes.

    Just because it's nice, doesnt mean you have to wear shoes. A table on the sand will bring hermit crabs to your toes!! Just know that in advance and you wont be freaked out.
    Great food. Great experience.
    My favorite meal and ambiance.
    Constantly refered to at the most romantic restaurant in Akumal.
    I will not disagree

    Updated 2007. Getting pricey and now getting mixed reviews. When they are on, they are on--when they are having an off night, there is just no getting around it.

    calamari is calamari right?
    Wrong. Try it here, it's awesome.
    And the Huilocoche Empendas were great too...
    The ranchero steak was perfect

    Share the coffee with kahula and xctabentun.
    It packs quite the wallop.
