I try to be a generous tipper, even when there’s no table service, so when Pizza Pazz automatically added a 15% gratuity and asked me to confirm, I said yes. While they were still making my pizza, it started pouring rain. With my three-year-old daughter in tow and no covered place to sit, I asked for a to-go box so we could eat in our hotel room across the street. The woman at the counter—despite my already large tip—demanded 200 pesos for it. No other vendor in the area charges for a takeout box, and when I explained I had no cash, she just said, 'You have a credit card, you can charge it.' I was stunned. Humiliated.
Thankfully, Holy Smokes (the excellent BBQ stand a few spots down) gave me a box for free, and we finally ate in peace. As for the pizza? Fine, but absolutely not worth dealing with a place that nickel-and-dimes customers and treats them with such indifference.

Needless to say I’m angry and disappointed that my body was poisoned, and I spent the night vomiting because of pricey (by Mexico standards) food I never even ordered. She repeated my order back to me also so idk what happened but I won’t...
Read moreHonestly this place was super clutch for our trip. Staying on Tulum beach is terrifyingly expensive. I’ve had cheaper meals at streak houses in Las Vegas. When we just wanted an easygoing bite to eat, Tulumunchies was it! The pizza is really good and the tacos rival the big name restaurants. The American burger at the burger stand was a monster! And absolutely delicious. Prices are still pretty high, bur you get a ton for your value. The bar in the middle is a good time and the bartenders are great. Fun vibe! Glad we...
