La Choza, Cozumel: A Must-Visit for Authentic Mexican Delight
La Choza in Cozumel came highly recommended, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. This gem delivered an unforgettable dining experience with its authentic Mexican cuisine, warm hospitality, and incredible value. From the moment we arrived, the staff greeted us with genuine friendliness, setting the tone for a fantastic meal.
The complimentary chips and salsa were a highlight—fresh, homemade chips paired with a unique salsa that wasn’t the typical red variety but burst with flavor. We ordered the fajita mix with shrimp and chicken, and on a whim, asked to add beef, which was a brilliant choice. The fajitas were sizzling, fresh, and perfectly seasoned, showcasing the authenticity of the cuisine. The homemade tortillas elevated every bite. We also got a side of rice and beans, which were unlike anything we’ve had in the U.S.—distinctive, flavorful, and a must-try.
The margaritas were a standout: perfectly balanced, not overly sweet, and easily some of the best we’ve ever had. The restaurant itself was spotless, with a clean kitchen that added to our confidence in the food’s quality.
The taxi ride from the Celebrity Cruises port was a quick $10, making it an easy trip.
For two of us, the bill came to just $50, including drinks and a generous amount of food—an incredible deal for such quality. La Choza is a place where every detail, from the fresh ingredients to the exceptional service, comes together perfectly.
Highly recommended for anyone...

There wasn’t anything wrong with the place. The food was good and the service was excellent.
That being said, it was more American style Mexican food, which was not what I was looking for. It wasn’t super touristy but still when I’m in Mexico, I want authentic Mexican food, not fajitas. This place was recommended by a local person so I expected it to be more authentic especially after I told him that I wanted to stay away from Americanized foods.
The chips were good and come with a spicy salsa which we loved. The guacamole was also good but don’t expect it to be like the guacamole that you are used to in the US. This guacamole is more like pico with avocado. I loved it. The soups were ok. The pork fajita was better than the chicken.
The prices were slightly less than what you would pay in the US but not cheap as some other local places, if that’s what you are expecting. For example, fajitas ranged between $14 - $17 USD and I ended up paying around $120 for 3 adults and 2 kids.
Service was as great and attentive. The staff does a great job being on top of stuff and making sure you are comfortable.
The ambience is great as well. It is open in the front and back like many places in Latin and South America.
Again the food was delicious, just not the place you want to go if you’re seeking real...
