Amazing experience at Tacos ALV! - Edit
This place is truly a hidden gem in Playa del Carmen. It's small and simple, but filled with love and authenticity. You can taste the care put into every bite.
Read moreI had the torta de milanesa, passion fruit agua fresca, and a brownie. Everything was absolutely delicious! My husband enjoyed the al pastor burrito, hibiscus agua fresca, and a café de olla. Every dish exceeded our expectations, and the best part is that it’s 100% vegan!
The owner is an incredibly kind woman who makes you feel right at home. We’ll definitely be back. Don’t miss this spot if you’re in Playa del Carmen!
Pros: Amazing food, Great price, Kind and friendly staff
Cons: Small location with limited outdoor only seating

DELICIOUS!!!😍 - Edit
This was the most amazing Mexican food ever with such generous portions - from the tacos to the tortas, burritos, and more!! I made sure to eat here twice during my stay in Mexico because everything was just too delicious!!
Read moreThe owners are also incredibly kind and talented! They accepted such a big delivery order my sister and I placed one night, then even opened their place for dining on another day when it was supposed to be closed.
Overall, 10000% recommend 🥰

Fast vegan taco delivery - Edit
I spotted this taco place on Happycow and decided to try it out one rainy evening so we wouldn't have to go out! It's a delivery/collection only service and you order via WhatsApp. The food was really good, the steak (bistec) burrito & tacos were the best in my opinion but we also got the chicken torta, loaded fries and almost all the tacos. This was a great option on a rainy evening when we were feeling super lazy. Also great value for fresh homemade food, the tacos were just 20 pesos each which is about 90p!
Read morePros: Fast delivery , Great value for money

Comida fantástica! - Edit
I knew I wanted to check this place out but it was a little too far to pay a visit in person so I had it delivered. It took about an hour, and, too my surprise, the tacos traveled well and were delicious upon arrival. I ordered every taco and a torta. The tacos were delicious and the provided salsa had a good spice. The torta was also delicious.

This dude is a machine - Edit
One guy. A kitchen. No sign. Don’t try to pay with a card. Prepare to hum while you chew. Get the pastor or the smoked beefsteak. Tip the man well. He works hard for the money.

Game changer! - Edit
This place is absolutely great. It’s only take out or delivery, but it’s so worth it. I was staying in an all inclusive hotel nearby and it had terrible vegan offerings, so I decided to get on this, and proceeded to order in essentially every day as it was so good and so cheap! The tacos are amazing, get them with cheese (it’s worth the extra 5 pesos / 20p), the burrito is huge. All the vegan “meats” are really tasty and seitan based, so loaded with protein. Honestly, can not recommend enough if you’re in the area.
Read morePros: Lots of vegan options, Really really tasty, Cheap
Cons: None!

take out or delivery only! I can't say enough good things about the meal I had here! 3 tacos pastor, 3 tacos chorizo y papas locas. Very flavorful and filling. This was my first meal in PDC and I will absolutely be eating here at least once before I go home!

Best Vegan Food in Playa del Carmen - Edit
Every item in the menu is amazing, they have tacos, burritos, tortas, burgers, hotdogs, they even have a version of the philly cheesesteak, and my favorites 'papas locas', which are made with vegan cheese, vegan meat and fries, just amazing.
Read moreThe tortillas for the tacos are hand made at the moment and they put quite a lot of fillings, my favorite is 'Bistec'.
Prices are great and the service is also exceptional, the owner is very accommodating and polite.
They only have delivery, I hope they open a place soon.

Fat tacos - Edit
This place is delivery only but you can order through WhatsApp. It’s incredibly easy and they’re quick to respond. Ordered 4 tacos, one of each (chorizo, al pastor, bistec and campechano) they were fully loaded and each “meat” was super flavorful. I was a bit skeptical how the tacos would travel but delivery was fast and the tortillas held up. The Philly was also tasty.
