“ Amazing food and great atmosphere at El Cedro! We had the brisket and the corn, and both were absolutely delicious. The brisket was tender, full of flavor, and perfectly paired with fresh cucumber and crispy chips. The corn is a must-try—packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. The staff was friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. Highly recommend this spot if you’re in Tulum! ”
“ Stopped here in early April for a lunch. Brisket tacos were fantastic. Great tasting and made to order. The corn was amazing too. Located a short walk from the Kimpton as an option. During lunch there was limited options in the quad area. But El Cedo Pelon was open. Would definitely come back when in the area. ”
