Altamar Bar and Restaurant

A wonderful seafood resto in a side alley between Av. Tulum and Parque de las Palapas. The seafood paella is delightful, as is the traditional Poc-Chuc (pork cooked a Yucatecan sour-orange sauce, served with rice and refried beans). The cocktails are 2-for-1 ("2X1") and quite delicious, and everything ends nicely with a well-made espresso.

The food is just so bad. I mean you can order just a beer and enjoy it, but for god sake do not order any food here. Also no credit card payment.

The prices are significantly more expensive than restaurants a block away ($50 for agua fresca, $199 for enchilada, which I think they charged me more than the menu states… shady) and they also charged me mandatory tip on the bill (actually illegal..?). Not only that, this was quite literally the worst food I’ve had my entire trip. I hate leaving bad reviews but I would like to warn other tourists. I was able to pay the bill in exact change down to the peso because I felt like if I had paid with card or if I had paid with a bigger bill, I would have never gotten my change back or would have got scammed. It definitely had that vibe. Other comments say they “forgot” to give back change when the restaurant was empty. When I went it was also empty. Should have taken that as a sign. There was no redeeming factor about this restaurant and it felt like a scam. Tourists stay away

walked up and wasn’t greeted for almost 10 minutes. Didn’t see anyone but a bartender way in back to approach. Once seated, tortillas for fajitas came 10-15 minutes after food had been put on table, so the tortillas were the only thing hot. Upon payment, was told no card and only cash (no visible signs stating this, never mentioned until end). Gave waiter smaller tip for this bad experience, but she waited over table asking for tip and heckled extra to get her to leave. Very unwelcoming and unprofessional.

Service was the issue, food was ok enough I wouldn’t have had an issue if the experience wasn’t so bad.

Food is good, but charged us with extra taxes when they should not... Be careful

Just don't do it. :P

Ordered a super overpriced burger and wished I went to McDo instead.

Good food, good service at a great price. Our drinks and dinner was out in no time on a very busy night.
