Peccato — Restaurant in Mérida

The server sadly asked "no tips?" when we abruptly paid and left. Here's why. It was the worst food we had after two weeks in Mexico. Next to that, two very loud speakers were playing different party music. This made it difficult to communicate.

We also enjoyed that the place was nice and clean with the servers being responsive and respectful to what we needed and ordered. Our server, Will, was beyond nice and really helped us with pace with our food and drinks. For his service alone, whenever we get a chance to come back and feel the need for a meal that we know will satisfy us, we will think...
