The food came later than it should. 30 minutes before someone asked me if I had ordered food. I asked to talk to a manager 3x, and I was addressed by a waiter. They agreed the time was excessive, but did not offer a legitimate excuse for bad service or cold parts of the meal. This is the third time I came and I did not return. The food looks good in the website and menu, but the delivery what they sell seems to fall short with me. Locals continue to flock here to enjoy food and residence. My recommendation would be to bring a magazine, patience and a snack home.

What an unusual concept, a restaurant whose menu is based exclusively on serving Eggs Benedict in a variety of ways. I wonder if my friend and I had made a menu choice if their phone couldn't read the QR codes. My phone didn't work. (We have activated all the correct functions. I have warnings. I don't use QR codes. All this leads to a discussion on the increasing exclusion of technology. There were other items on the menu, but my friend and I just went for the Eggs Benedict. We both had the original. We found it strange that with all health care before entering that once within the customers removed their masks for their entire visit. The staff was fully focused on safety precautions. The inner seating area is a large room. There is an outdoor seating area where we moved when a table was available. Since October 2020, Merida is still a hot zone, while some companies and restaurants open up, they open with limited hours and security. It was nice to come out of the house with a friend and experience something normal. Note: Parking was limited.

They clearly have a certain population they like the less melanin the better. I went on a hot day and despite several open tables, they wanted me outside. Told me they all they had was one family sized table that they couldn't separate only to do exactly that for the white tourists that arrived afterwards. Never again will I go to this place. Never.

Good food wide choice and moderate service. Not as good as the Fiesta Americana Buffet, but I will return.

Have been to both locations (actually the one in town is relocating) this one is on the way to Progresso. As before, the food is tasty, service is excellent and pricing is very reasonable. The food selection is amazing. Parking is a breeze and cleanliness is a priority.
