The Mill

On the walk from the public garden back to the hotel. Saw lots of reviews. Figured I'd never be here again. Realized there's another location just across the street from the hotel.

Tomalo

oct 26, 2023

w/ Max. Cantelope agua fresca was fine, but was also $5!! Expensive and not filling for what it is. I would go back, because it was good. Also they will do Costra or Gringo style, which was not offered to us by the fella at the window!!

$52.27 after tax/tip

good: Poc Chuc de Res burrito. Max liked both of his tacos (Pollo and Diablo Shrimp)

whatever: Cochinita Pibil taco (it's just stewed pork)

Bufalina

nov 1, 2023

Bacalar

nov 9, 2023

w/ Max, Brian. Service was impressively poor. Took 30 minutes for first drink to be delivered, so food wasn't ordered until 30 minutes in. The coursing was slow/terrible. Had to wait 10+ minutes after we were done with the pork entree before they brought the chicken entree. Then they forgot the sweet potatoes. Nothing worth coming back for.

$315.01 pre-tax/tip.

good: Penicilin #2 (cocktail), Fruit Aguachile, Passion Fruit Sorbet

whatever: Sikil Pak & Guacamole (Siki Pak much better than Guac), Masa Dumplings, Cochinita Pibil (why serve with tortillas? it's just stewed pork and onions. felt incomplete for $42), Chocolate Bunuelo, MArquesita Arabe, Manjar Blanco

not good: Chicken Poc, Scallops and Bluefin Crudo
