Restaurant Salus y Chemo's — Restaurant in Cancún

What an awesome family run restaurant we found.

The giant mango tree in front was blooming and has plenty of ripen mangoes.

We came here around 6pm and the restaurant wasn’t busy. We ordered the Tamale Oaxaquenos, Pozole verde, and Tampiquena.

We never had Oaxaca tamale before but this tasted good! The tamale is like twice the size of the tamale you normally get.

The pozole was flavorful, slightly thicker broth compared to the pozole verde we had before. It’s very good though.

The Tampiquena came with grilled beef and also one chicken enchilada topped with mole. They are very good too.

Highly recommend you visit this restaurant if you are in downtown near to ADO...

When I was there I think most of the people in the restaurant were family friends. They were just chilling there and watching tv together. I ordered the red pork pozole. It tasted like Korean 육계장 if you ever tried that before. It came with a side dish of random assorted things like tortillas, avocado, fried jalapeños. Overall an awesome place to visit if you happen to be in Downtown Cancun! Total cost was 161 pesos with...

Pozole was delicious and comes with "botana" (side dishes). They have other options for Mexican food in a very traditional fashion. It's a small rural oasis just a few steps from ADO bus station. At the entrance you're welcomed by a huge mango tree and a sing that says "Since 1980" which is a lot for a young city like Cancun. Menu is varied with tamales, salutes, tacos and other Mexican dishes. They have their small memories corner with some historic photos of Cancun. Attention is not fast, so come here with some...
