Ixi'im Restaurant

This is what I call perfection. Possibly my best culinary experience.The food, the drinks, the service and the place is extraordinary.

First of all it is not JUST about the food, which is world class, simply world class. It is about the experience of getting there, the arrival at the front gate, being greeted by courteous guards of Chablé hotel.
Once passed the gate you drive slowly through the meandering road flanked by a perfectly manucured yes still very authentic landscape to the restaurant parking.
There you are greeted by a lovely lady that walks you along the path to the actual restaurant.
Along the way she educates you about the origins of the Hacienda and give you the back story of buildings.
The restaurent itself is simply stunning and is just the perfect environmental partner to the cuisine.
On that front, i will say this: it is an experience you must immerse yourself in and I would strooongly recommend that you let Jorge the sommelier guide you and maybe even choose, especially if you are a group of 3-4 ppl. You can share some plates, which i would recommend since you really need to try everything haha.
And if you dare, as him to pair a Liqueur with your appetizers instead of wine, the Mezcal he paired with mine was just sublimeZ
You will get to sample his recommendation before choosing.
All the amuse bouche were perfect and on point.
The meal itself was, and yes it’s gonna sound cliché, an experience for the soul as much as the taste buds. The flavors are just soooo familiar and foreign at the same time. Every bit is a discovery of a new world, and with the wine paired, this could be my last meal.
Keep space for the deserts and a glass of veeeery old Sherry, it’s a must.

Well, that me.
dont ‘t think about it Just Do It!

Wow! This place is amazing! The food/service was 4 out of 5 but you can not beat the ambience (5 of 5 on food for the region but internationally 4 of 5).

The grounds however are so tranquil! It totally transformed our trip. With or without kids this place is It! We can not wait to repeat- and we will for much longer (staying at the realest for sure!)

Stunning hotel and a fantastic restaurant. I personally did not love being surrounded by hundreds of bottles of tequila. The food is absolutely perfect, service is great. A bit pricey but totally worth it!

Certainly one of the best meals I had in Mexico, and one of the most beautiful locations. Chablé Yucatàn is pure beauty, attention to details, luxury but also nature and authenticity.. essentially a paradise on earth which the most incredible vibe! And Ixi’im is a gem in this paradise, that will satisfy all your senses. We tried the tasting menu and some mezcal drinks, and loved every bit. Would revisit a hundred times.

Amazing food, service and atmosphere! The venison is one of the best risotos I’ve ever had! Also great gluten free options

This was one of my best dining experiences. The food was over the top good with excellent service. The fish was so very fresh and perfectly prepared. We also enjoyed some amazing wines and Mezcal. In addition, the grounds for the resort are so beautiful. Don’t miss if you find yourself in Merida!

The most amazing food experience in an incredible old hacienda machine room in the middle of the jungle! Cena 12 Manos

Amazing! The food, service and atmosphere was outstanding. We celebrated a birthday while there it truly unforgettable.

GO! This is one of the best experiences I've had food wise. Incredibly tasty dishes, well thought with prime quality ingredients. The service is just perfect, very chill and respectful with a great knowledge. Try to take the tasting menu so you can experience as much as this place has to offer ❤

World-class restaurant with incredible food and service, isolated in the Yucatan country side, approximately 45 minutes from downtown Mérida. Definitely worth the trip. Staff is extremely friendly. They have more than 3000 tequilas on display - if you are a fan of tequila, this is a must on your bucket list.

Nouveau Mayan tasting menu. The proportions were perfect, and the drink pairings were very complimentary. Very exclusively located in a heavenly site; worth the travel from Merida.

The decoration of the restaurant is impressive, with its collection of tequilas. The unmatched food, thanks to the imagination and skill of chef Luis Ronzón. If you can also stay in the hotel and enjoy the SPA, you will probably remember this experience for ever.

So good we ate here two nights in a row. This place is the star of the Chablé Yucatan resort, from the food to the service and overall experience.

Just heaven! No words for the experience

The place is so beautiful, and the food OMG!!!

Great food, amazing place.
Everything was amazing and plateas looked fabolous

An upscale place in the peninsula, chef´s menu selection is awesome, wine list ok, price wise little bit overprice but understandable, great time and ambience

Quiet an experience. Good environment decor. Out of series. UNESCO rated it the prettiest restaurant in the world. If not the prettiest is the one where you will feel out of the world in paradise. It is unique
