Friendly staff and nice atmosphere. I went for a gluten free pizza and it was delicious and crispy. I would recommend for any coeliacs in Playa.

Cecilia Santander

Delicious gluten-free food. Excellent attention

Jenni Christensen

Delicious and gluten free - best combo!

Maureen Pasquier

Natalia Marin Arribas

The gluten free paradise and also lots of vegan, keto, non dairy options… love it, highly recommend!!!

Carlotta Mayer

Very nice Italian restaurant! Friendly and efficient service. I think the owner knows how to set the mood in the evening! The place is pleasant outdoors. They make gluten-free pasta, so that's nice. The salads, however, aren't amazing.

Emily

Lovely cafe with great food and smoothies and friendly staff, just a bit on the pricey side! Lots of options for vegan and gluten free.

Jonathan Martineau

Amazing gluten free and gluten free

Katie Lambert

Gorgeous restaurant and amazing food! Ate here on my birthday while visiting Playa del Carmen and was so magical and delicious! I have celiac (gluten allergy) and the team was incredibly accommodating and knowledgeable on allergies - Highly recommend the tuna steak - it was so delicious! And the restaurant is actually built around a cenote - super cool experience and some of the best food I ate in Mexico!

Kati Sun

They have the most amazing glutenfree vegan burito! Incredibly yummy!

Sophie Castelbou

A pretty garden in the shade of the jungle, smiling and welcoming staff and impeccable service. A healthy and tasty breakfast... and even a delicious gluten free chocolate tart. I recommend 200%

Nia Roberts

Appreciated the option of gluten-free pasta. Super delicous and great service!

Mischi Hürlimann

He directly asked for allergies. They made the tacos with corn tortillas - really nice!

Kalps (k4lps)

Great place, lots of vegan and gluten free options, really recommend the empanadas they are amazing. A word of warning, the coffee wasn’t great, couldn’t drink it, it was really bad !

Mone **

Nice restaurant with the option to eat a gluten-free burger. I found it very tasty. The employees seemed rather unmotivated.

Jaqueline Gomez Franco

The presentation of the food only does justice to how delicious it is, it has light and well-served options, gluten free and sugar free, it was excellent for us after having dinner with tacos 😅 Highly recommended, delicious, at a good price and friendly

Carlos Sosa

Place close to 5th (1 and a half blocks) Italian food 🤌🏽 great flavor, quiet and good to go with the family. HIGHLIGHTED that it has gluten-free pasta options. The seafood, fish, and octopus dishes are very good. Pizza good, 1 is ok for 2 people or children. Very good portions and they bring vegetables that complement the dishes well. Great service, very attentive at all times.

Adrian Popescu

Most of the things on the menu are gluten free. Lots of options to choose from. Portions are quite generous and the taste is great. They even provide coffee refills on the house. So far, my favorite place on the island. Definetly recommend.

Kelsey Leonard

Great spot! My server was celiac herself and explained everything that was safe. Almost all pastas can be done gf with gf penne or linguine and most of the apps and larger plates are gf too. I enjoyed the burrata caprese and gf carbonara. Highly recommend!

Vee K

They have Gluten-free bread!! I had a delicious lunch! soup, sandwich and water of the day (papaya) it was a tasty treat.

Amy Kaur

Great food and great atmosphere at Panza! We were looking for a place that does gluten free pizza and this place had many GF options! Kevin our waiter was so nice and helpful throughout! Great service would recommend

Charly Luna

Absolutely spectacular! Such a fun, friendly, and beautiful atmosphere. Best servive. Such love. MY HEART IS SO FULL! The family feel, the melody and tune of the entire place. The people! The connection. And the safety and cleanliness. I have Celiac and they were very accommodating. I felt so safe to eat. And I ate it all! 😋 Can't wait to be back!

Emilie Haugen

Great gluten free pizza. I read from other reviews they only have gluten free pizza on Fridays, so I texted them on WhatsApp to confirm before I went there. Love the atmosphere as well. The only thing is I wish they used fresh pineapple in stead of canned.

Emerald Thomas

Delicious smoothies

Kelsey Leonard

I hate to have to leave this review because everyone was very kind and the food was absolutely delicious but I am celiac and went specifically because they have a menu with gf items listed (and one of the workers told me they’re celiac while I was there so they know what it means) but the edamame was not marked as one preparation gluten free and the other not, simply as the dish being gf (which it typically is at every restaurant I’ve been to so I didn’t question it). I told the hostess when she asked about food allergies that I was celiac so they gave me the gf menu. I ordered the edamame and the waiter did not tell me that I had to order it the certain way for it to be gf and even prompted us to order it the way that was not gf. Even after the reminder of asking for gf tamari to use, still nothing. Then about 3/4 of the way through he came up and was like oh that version has soy sauce, do you want the gf version. We got multiple apologies from people (especially the worker who mentioned that he was also celiac, ironically no apology or even acknowledgement from our server) but I’m not sure what good an apology does when I’m likely to end up sick for the next few days on my trip. Again, hate to write this review because other than that everything was excellent and I would have given everything 5 stars. Just for any fellow celiacs out there, be extra cautious and tell everyone that you’re celiac/confirm the menu items are actually gf the way you’re wanting them prepared. (Gave the food 5 stars because it is truly delicious and marked service way down for the screw up, though I should note they were lovely and very helpful otherwise).

If you’re a real pizza lover, I’d suggest giving this place a miss. We ordered two Diavola pizzas, one on a gluten-free base with vegan cheese and one regular. The gluten-free base came at an additional 100 pesos, which is quite steep, but I was curious to try it. Unfortunately, what arrived was more like a 1mm-thin tostada with a small amount of melted vegan cheese, no tomato sauce, and just four slices of what seemed like very basic salami. It really didn’t resemble a pizza in any way and was sent back straight away. Thankfully, we weren’t charged for it, which I appreciated. As for the regular pizza, it wasn’t much better. It looked like something from a very low-end all-inclusive buffet. The tomato sauce was unusually dark and definitely didn’t taste like San Marzano as advertised. The base was flat, undercooked, and lacked any real flavour or texture. On the plus side, the service was excellent. The waiter was kind, attentive, and very apologetic. I really felt for him, as he did his best in a tough situation. As an Italian who has lived abroad for over 20 years, I’ve had pizza in all kinds of settings and don’t consider myself particularly picky. But sadly, this just didn’t come close to what I’d consider pizza, especially at these prices. Piola used to be great years ago, but something seems to have changed. I won’t be returning.

Jodi Cobler

Best Gluten Free Fried Rice, ever!!! Don't miss this one! Very accommodating to food allergies and great prices.

Rob Long

Came here with my wife on our honeymoon. Everything about the place was phenomenal. Kenchi (probably spelled that wrong), was our bartender and server and he was probably one of the fastest cocktail bartenders I've seen, and did it all with a smile. The food was top quality, the service was great, and we left full and happy. The live music was really great too, adding a romantic and relaxed atmosphere. Definitely make reservations and be aware this place is going to be pricier than other spots on the island. Also I should add they are safe for people with celiac disease if you let them know, they can effectively accommodate gluten free without cross contamination.

Devyn Nemeth

Some of the best Thai food I’ve ever had! The staff are so friendly and are very accommodating for allergies. Highly recommend this place if you’re gluten free.

Mary Bartell

Jolly is absolutely one of my favorite cafes in Cozumel. The food is always great and the atmosphere is chill and cozy. The staff is always fast and friendly. When I vacation on the island this is always the restaurant I go to first. My favorite is the Eggs Benedict but the avocado toast is a close second. The golden milk is very good and there coffee is made very well. Andy the waitress is always so cheerful and fun! It's a joy getting breakfast here. Their gluten free bread is great!!

Owen Richardson

Went here for New Year's with the family and we enjoyed our time. Although the music was blasting pretty loud they have a massive selection of delicious food and drinks. They have plenty of good celiac options as well. With it right on the ocean it has great views during the day and the ocean breeze is refreshing. I can definitely recommend this place.

Ramona Pfanzelt

Wow, wow, wow! Rarely have I had such good service! Sangria was extremely good (tip: order the 1/2 liter straight away, it's cheaper 😉). Pizza bread was amazing too! Ravioli too! Gluten-free pasta is also served. Every heart beats faster 🙏🏼

Madelaine Hayden

Amazing Italian food, my friend had a gluten free pizza and loved it. Cocktails were also amazing. To top it off the staff were attentive and very friendly. Amazing service - thank you!

James Coghlan

We did not stay here but stopped by for a delicious lunch. All the waitstaff, especially Adolfo, were incredible and paid special attention to detail when it came to food allergies. They have lots of gluten free and dairy free options and are super communicative about it! The food is delicious and I highly recommend the Baja Tacos. We will be back! EDIT: As promised above, we came back the next day for lunch and the waitstaff were again incredible. Not only was the service and food impeccable but they even remembered us and our and dietary preferences. Can’t say enough good things about Ziggy’s, it’s just awesome.

linds redding

Had a wonderful meal here! Our server Enrique was excellent. My sister and I have celiac and had great gf pasta here

Ailbhe Whitty

What a spot in bacalar. Was reccomended by numerous people before. Loads of taco filling options. Good for gluten free and veggies! The burritos are quite greasy I’d recommend the tacos more. Great margaritas as well

Alison Maar

Salvei Vegan Concept is an amazing and friendly place, made with love and care for everyone who steps inside. You can relax on the cozy terrace with shade and a refreshing breeze, or come inside for a charming ambiance with A/C. Plus, it’s pet-friendly! The menu is wide and full of creative dishes, offering both local and classic meals for all tastes. Salvei is transparent about its ingredients, giving customers a clear understanding of what’s in each dish. There are plenty of gluten-free and sugar-free options too. My personal favorites are the Rainbow Roll, Tartare Caribe, and the Falafel from the specials. They also have great cocktails, vegan cakes, and beautifully presented dishes. I highly recommend taking this vegan journey with the trustworthy hands of chef and owner Kairi, who is passionate about her cuisine—authentic and delicious!

Matteo Giani

Clean place, great food, gluten free options, fairly priced and quick service. Great experience

Laura Cano

Everything was so good. They had gluten free pasta, handmade pasta, pizza was amazing.

Theresa Lux

I love this restaurant! Beautiful decor, excellent service and the gluten free menu offered so many options. The Pad Thai chicken was delicious and gluten free. I rarely eat out because of my gluten allergy but I'm so glad I ate (multiple times) at Sasi Thai. The lady playing the saxophone was great. The other people who didn't have any food allergies loved the variety of food and delicious meals.

Cindy Harcha

Very good service, excellent prices. The passion fruit lemonade is delicious. Highly recommended!!! And many gluten-free options. Dessert too, and very delicious. Don't stop coming if you pass through Isla Mujeres.

mira levy

The birria ramen is the most amazing thing i’ve ever eaten, recommend so much. Birria tacos are my fave thing ever and the ramen is just so amazing. The menu is quite small yet the dishes are so fab. They cater well to allergens, e.g coeliac. Defo recommend xx

Claire Bonnepart

Found this little outdoor gem and am so thrilled! The margaritas are delicious-strong/not too sweet! Plenty of gluten and dairy free options. The staff are kind and attentive. The outdoor garden is magical and the outdoor indoor bar looks really quaint and inviting! I would definitely come back!

Sarabeth Berk Bickerton

Meal of a lifetime. Truly the highlight of our time in Tulum. My husband is celiac and very picky. He had a fabulous time enjoying all the gluten free flavors on the menu. The service was incredible. We will never forget the deliciousness.

Abel Frecska

Absolutely fun and delicious dinner - the place was totally happening. The food was great and the cocktails were really well balanced. We had an amazing closing night to our stay in Tulum. They also catered to the gluten sensitive guests within our team.

Rachel Stephens

My husband and I are big Margaritaville fans. Not only is this Margaritaville right in the port, but they're actually affordable. They sell slices of watermelon alcohol infused Jell-O in real watermelon rinds for just $3 USD a slice. It's an incredible deal. There are tons of photo opportunities here and the restaurant is clean. Margaritaville also tends to be one of the few places with a marked menu for gluten-free options. Visited TWICE in January 2025

Justin “Jdsworld” Green

Awesome gluten free and vegan options. My wife has a severe egg allergy and they made a great Vegan Chille Relleno for her. My Conchinita Pibil was perfectly cooked and spiced! Brenda was so kind, quick, and accommodating. Thank you!

Reem Khatib

Great place to sit down and be by the water! No gluten free friendly options sadly. I had to just eat guac and chips.

K. Hope

Hole in the wall place that has super thick pizza so if you want bread come here. If you're gluten free it's a thinner crust but still delicious. Deff where locals go and they also deliver. Check your food when leaving because they accidentally gave us one pizza that wasn't gluten free. It looked like it had two crusts as a base to hold all the toppings. Mussel pizza was the besttttttt

Gary Chiang

Great service and the mole was the best I’ve ever had in the yucatan. Try the crickets they are not as bad as you might think and make for fun pictures. This is definitely on the expensive side but the atmosphere was well worth it. Check out the small cenote nearby across the street! They were very good with gluten and dairy allergies.
