A sustainably-minded, ethical eatery with a farm-to-table and zero-waste approach to dining.

Set in its own impressive organic vegetable and herb garden, the open-air restaurant (just away from the hustle & bustle of Tulum's main avenue) - features a tropical-meets mid-century contemporary aesthetic - complete with a vaulted wood ceiling (the angled roof is used to collect rainwater for irrigation), colorful tiles, recycled furnishings and handmade Art Déco-inspired lighting.

Everything on the (regularly changing) tasting menu is made in-house from scratch and centered around live-fired cooking with produce either sourced from local ethical farmers or harvested on-site. The mainly plant-based menu shows great respect for ingredients applied with French techniques, overseen by Michelin-trained chef and co-owner Ben Coe and his wife Maya Scales - who was previously founding Chef Patron of Arca. A must visit.
