Maya Restaurant in Cobá Wins Tripadvisor Award Again

Tulum, Quintana Roo — The restaurant La Casa de los Gorditos, located in the community of Cobá, has received the Travelers’ Choice award from the international platform Tripadvisor for the fourth consecutive year, distinguishing it as one of the best places to enjoy local and traditional gastronomy in the region.

Since its opening in February 2022, the establishment quickly positioned itself among the favorites of visitors touring Cobá and its archaeological zone. In just three years, it accumulated excellence certificates for 2022, 2023, and 2024, and in this 2025, it again appears among the businesses best rated by national and foreign tourists.

The culinary proposal of the restaurant stands out for the use of ancestral recipes and techniques inherited from Maya cuisine, an element that—according to its administrators—has been key to keeping the gastronomic traditions of the region alive. The dishes prepared on traditional stoves with local ingredients aim to offer diners an authentic experience, based on flavors that are part of the identity of the towns in central Quintana Roo.

Thanks to this commitment to traditional cuisine, La Casa de los Gorditos has consolidated itself as a gastronomic reference within the municipality of Tulum, attracting both local inhabitants and tourists seeking genuine options away from the commercial offerings of more touristy areas. Reviews published on digital platforms highlight the flavor of the food, warm service, and family atmosphere, factors that have contributed to maintaining the establishment’s high rating.

With this new recognition, the restaurant reaffirms its commitment to quality and culinary preservation, becoming a must-visit point for those wishing to know the gastronomic richness of Cobá and its surroundings.
