Loncheria Fabiola

"One of the best places to eat authentic local food. The owner Gloria is a real boss lady Do not judge this book by its cover. We stopped here to eat after our 3 hours tread in Chichen Itza."

"Local food, that tastes like it's home made by a Mexican grandma, very affordable. Menu has food photos, so even if you don't speak Spanish, you can follow the visuals ;)"

"The food was delicious and cheap! Really yummy. However, I saw the lady behind the counter eating with her fingera, not washing her hands, then cooking. As an American, I need to see hand washing. This is the only reason for my 4 star rating."

"Panuchos with conchinita were good taste wise but very oily. Papadzules are tortillas filled with cooked eggs. Yummy sopa de Lima (refreshing in the heat) Cheap compared to other places"

"Excellent food! We ordered the panuchos with cochinita meat and it was so good. We also ordered some drinks: leche con plátano and chaya con piña. They were both very good. Chaya is similar to spinach and is popular local drink. Everything was so good. Definitely recommend."

"So glad we ignored the negative nancy reviews and stopped for lunch, I am thinking shills from the adjoining restaurants that try to swoop in when you get out of your car and guide you elsewhere. Friendly staff at Fabiola's. We sat at a table in front of the counter and watched them prepare our lunch meals fresh, including pressing the tortillas. I had 4 tacos (3 chicken, 1 cochinita pibil) excellente, my wife had the cochinita pibil platter, we split an order of 4 empanadas and 3 frescas to wash it down. Total bill was 250 pesos or $13.60us."

"Great spot for lunch after visiting the temple. The food was delicious, service was solid, and the location couldn’t be more convenient. It’s very close to the site and parking was easy, which made the stop quick and stress-free. Highly recommended if you’re in the area."

"We wanted to find some authentic Mexican street style food and not spend a lot of money doing it. We were able to make all of those things happen at Loncheria Fabiola in Pisté. We loved that we could dine outdoors (and hangout with like 15 stray dogs haha) and this was incredibly close to the Mayan Ruins at Chichen Itza so we were able to grab food here the night before our tour of the ruins. Started off with some pork tacos and some assorted empanadas. The empanadas were good but I would say out of the three things I tried they were my least favorite. The flavor was solid and the fillings and consistency were enjoyable but they lacked the pop of the other two dishes for me personally. I added some of the hot salsas they brought to the table and that made these even better but the tacos and my entree definitely held the edge. These tacos were served on a thicker tortilla than the tortillas they brought for our entrees. I really enjoyed the texture and mouth feel of this compared to a typical corn tortilla. It had more flavor as well to me. The pork had great flavor and was very tender, and the toppings as well as both hot salsa’s on this was really great together. I’d eat these tacos all day long. For my entree I decided to get the “Chochinita Pibil” platter. This is this regions famous go to dish so it made perfect sense to try it out. It’s a pork that is slow roasted with interesting seasonings like cinnamon, achiote, and allspice. The flavor on this was not similar to things I’ve had before and I enjoyed it so much. The pork was super tender and there was a bit of a smoky flavor as well. I made some tacos with it and added some of the rice and mole and it was seriously an awesome bite. Would order this again 10 out of 10 times here. 3 entrees with tacos, empanadas, and sodas was like $30 usd or something. Insane. Loncheria Fabiola - Didn’t Suck!"
