Why Travelers Love Jungle Jax
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
must go to this restaurant when you visit tulum!!! the owner is unbelievably hospitable from the moment we stepped in. it still amazes me that he can balance being the server, chef, and everything in between. the food was delicious, cooked to perfection. he even gave us a complimentary house shot that was nothing like ive had before. after we left, he gave us a list of must go to spots in tulum and even helped us get on a guest list for a cenote we really wanted to go to. highly HIGHLY recommend going here! it was our first stop in tulum and it really set up our vacation for success :) We had a fantastic dinner here and it has been the highlight of our trip so far. The food is made right in front of you and everything was cooked perfectly. The chef and the server were extremely welcoming and nice. If you’re in Tulum, this is a must! Highly recommend! Thank you for the great service! What a lovely ambience. Food especially tomato, steak were amazing. Bastien the chef and the staff are friendly and chilled/relaxed. The only disappointment was we were too full we didn’t order the dessert, but I guess that's just something to look forward to next time. Bastien such a good company. Drinking alcohol with us! :)

A small strong menu which is ideal. I prefer smaller menus with creative options on them. There were no weak points to our meal and the service was great. Great outdoor jungle vibe.
