    El restaurante es único, definitivamente es una experiencia que no debes dejar pasar, pero para hacer un restaurante de comida mexicana, deja mucho que desear, sus alimentos son insípidos, lo único pasable es el mole, considero están muy enfocados al turismo extranjero.

    La Gruta does not represent Mexican food and hospitality. The location is beautiful, but that is the only plus. They sat us down, we were brought plate placements with the menu. 5 minutes later we were brought utensils. 5 minutes later plates. All this and we had to ask for them to take our DRINK order. After another 5 minutes they came, we ordered our drinks and food at the same time since it’s took about 20 min just to get any waiter to take our order. We noticed tourists outside of Mexican tourists get a lot more attention and better service. We were a mix of Mexican/American that only look Mexican. Other tourists might receive better/quicker service, but they will be getting less than minimum in quality of food and price. Unfortunately a lot tourists do not realize they could be receiving a lot better at a local place not far from there.

    La Gruta was the perfect spot to relax after a hot day exploring the pyramids. The unique cave atmosphere provided cool relief from the sun, worth visiting for the ambiance alone. We enjoyed the molcajete, which was delicious, and shared the Mexican platter—a generous portion with some standout items and a few average bites. The Café de Olla was excellent as well. Overall, a wonderful place combining memorable atmosphere, tasty food, and refreshing comfort. Highly recommended!
