Bastos Grill Isla Mujeres Review: The Most Local Experience


If you’re looking for a more authentic experience, Bastos Grill is the place to be. This restaurant, located in La Gloria in the middle part of the island, features plastic menus in Spanish, simple wooden chairs and tables, and authentic Mexican food that well over 500 people on Google Maps say is delicious.
One of the great things about this restaurant is that they serve free nachos with dips with your meal as an appetizer. On top of that, portion sizes are plentiful, and options are endless. There are tacos, enchiladas, fajitas, burritos, huaraches, sopes, quesadillas, and much more.
One of the great things about this restaurant is that it’s not located near tourist hotspots, and it’s family-owned. That means prices are low and you’ll find many dishes below 200 pesos ($10 USD). Definitely a spot to put on your list if you’re looking for something more local!
