Restaurant "El Faisán" — Restaurant in Quintana Roo

The food was really not that great. The spaghetti tasted like spaghetti O's, which the kids loved. The drinks were made from syrup. The enchiladas looked and tasted like warmed up taquitos and the cheese was a slice of sandwich cheese. It really tasted and felt like a lunch room lunch that we paid more than it was worth for. I gave two stars because the servers were great. But the food was really sub-par. Normally I don't leave bad reviews, but feel the need to spare people the same...

Had a great experience at El Faisan! The food was awesome and the staff was GREAT. As a matter of fact, we missed the bus back from Coba to Tulum and had to walk 6km to a spot where we could potentially get a taxi. Our awesome waiter from El Faisan, Riccardo (I think!), spotted us walking and gave us a ride to the taxi pickup spot. Such a nice guy.

Anyway, El Faisan came recommended to us by our Coba Pyramid tour guide, who clearly knows a lot about Coba! Very glad we trusted him....

Decent food and great prices. Writing this review to warn others.. DO NOT buy copal from the store that's on the right when facing El Fraisan. I expected them to be tourist traps but the copal they sold me wasn't even copal.. it was incense and they charged 10x what it should have cost even with me bartering them down to 50% of the original price. Save your pesos. Anyway, definitely recommend El Fraisan for...
