Food scene
With its campsite kitchen and cozy, evening-picnic atmosphere, Arca should be at the top of your list for its artful, microseasonal cuisine, complete with ingredients that taste as if they were picked just beyond the fan palms surrounding the outdoor space. It’s the flagship restaurant of Mexican-American chef Jose Luis Hinostroza, whose resume includes Alinea, El Celler de Can Roca, De Kromme Watergang, and Noma. Crispy, spinachlike chaya enhances the grassy flavors of grilled avocado and buffets soft-shell crab in amaranth tempura. Don’t miss Hinostroza’s grilled octopus in recaudo negro marinade, which has become part of the Tulum canon. [$$$$]

Mur Mur is set up in an alley off the main road and lit with string lights for an alfresco dining experience. The focus here is on contemporary Baja Mexican food, with a Yucatán influence. And as much as possible, all the produce and meat is sourced locally—beef from Cancun, pork from Vallodolid, and fish from local fishermen. Mostly cooked in a brick-oven grill, the food is fresh and incredible: the avocado salad with spicy cauliflower confit is addictive, is was the octopus ceviche, and red snapper marinated in chile peanut sauce and served with nopales.

The vibe is the allure at this swank jungle getaway with an old-world feel that merges 17th century Mexican architecture, candlelit dinners, and overgrown palm trees and vines. The food is a blend of Meditteranean mezze, Mexican American tacos, and appetizers like quesadillas cut into acute triangles like the ones at American chain restaurants. Order a smoky, citrusy Gitano Swizzle or any of the delicious tropical mezcal cocktails, and snack away in this irresistibly hip setting. [$$$]

If a clubby rainforest patio sounds like your kind of scene, head to Rosanegra, a wealthy playpen billed as a tribute to Latin America (that’s such a hit with chilangos that they opened one in Mexico City’s upscale Polanco neighborhood). Soft light emanates from hanging bamboo coche lampshades, as beautiful patrons wave sparklers and dine on ceviche served in terrariums, A5 wagyu tacos with excessively sauce-dotted plates, and giant churro hoops shooting out of martini glasses. Order the millionaire, a surf-and-turf combo of a Hyogo Prefecture 8-ounce New York Kobe cut, paired with lobster tail imported from the Mediterranean or a Nigerian U2 Tiger Shrimp. You’ve booked a Sea Villa at Azulik. You can afford it. [$$$$]

Maintaining respect for the community and environment, chef Eric Werner leads the team at one of Tulum’s most renowned restaurants as they forage in the surrounding areas, source ingredients from local markets, and cook freshly caught seafood over fire. The chef leaves local Mexican food culture in the hands of Tulum’s traditional cooks; he focuses on cooking in Mexico, rather than cooking Mexican cuisine. In reality, that translates to sea bream fillets, Caribbean lobster, and arrachera cuts of Angus beef cooked on a wood-fired grill, served simply with bitter greens and roasted vegetables. Seated under simple white awnings on a gravel floor, the restaurant evokes a Tulum before the hype. [$$$$]

Fashionable, modern Mexican fine dining is alive and well at Bal Nak, a lush outdoor restaurant where you feel like you’re at a backyard party in the jungle. Just look at the ceramic plates of almond mole served with duck breast, sweet and smoky mole of Oaxacan chilhuacle chiles paired with roast suckling pig and an hoja santa tamal, and chargrilled watermelon aguachile in a spicy guava sauce. Whatever you get, start with grilled chocolata clams and a beetroot cocktail. [$$$]

Chefs Maya Scales, a veteran of Arca and Mexico City’s Izote, and Benjamin Coe, of the Bay Area’s Morimoto Napa, Commis, and Box and Bells, co-created this zero-waste, environmentally conscious space in Tulum. Options might include beautiful Caribbean prawns poached in seawater, or local grouper with nixtamalized tomatoes that pays homage to pre-Hispanic cooking methods. Tasting menus change regularly, but there’s always a vegetarian menu with plates like coal-roasted Bacalar cabbage in a spicy Trinidadian curry, made from herbs and vegetables grown in the rooftop garden.
