La Cueva del Chango

Top choice in Playa del Carmen


The 'Monkey's Cave,' known for its fresh and natural ingredients, has seating in a jungly palapa setting or a verdant garden out back. Service is friendly, but the kitchen can be slow. The food is delicious; try the sopa de coco con camarones (coconut milk with shrimp). Yum!
