Wonderful - Edit
We love the ethos of Layla which Robin and his team have created - a little oasis in Puerto Morelos.
Read moreThe food was always excellent on the numerous times we ate there while staying in the town. A full and excellent menu to choose from. We enjoyed both the spicy Mexican dishes as well as pizza and pasta.
Robin also leads small day tours to explore and experience the area including a meal with a Mayan family - which was also vegan by request. The tour 'fee' goes towards animal welfare and the Mayan community.
Fully recommend both Layla and the tour.
Pros: Ethos, Vegan options , Friendly staff

NOT VEGAN OR VEGETATIAN ALL MEAT - Edit
I cant even rate one star because happy cow automatically gives vegan/veg restaurants one star, which they dont deserve as they serve all types of meat and animal products, from intelligent octopus to pigs.
Read morethey secretly charge you for karaoke if it's available, even if you don't sing, charged for drinks we never received, advertise as vegan to vegans, when they have a full animal based menu that they advertise locally
Updated from previous review on 2023-12-24
Pros: nothing, not even the vegan food was good imo
Cons: they serve animals , they secretly added charges , charged for items we didn't receive

We went twice in March 2024 and found many delicious vegan options on the menu.

Amazing, fresh, clean vegan eats - Edit
We visited last year on vacation and we were blown away. Absolutely amazing options, fresh ingredients, cool spot and amazing staff. We went back every night the rest of our vacation. And evening a couple of mornings for the breakfast options. We are so grateful for this gem found in a spot we were not expecting an all vegan restaurant.

All vegan now - Edit
Cafe is now all vegan. Excellent breakfast and so many choices - from pancakes to smoothies, fruit bowls and tofu egg dishes. We went with a tofu scramble and tofu eggs Benedict. All Mexican inspired. No longer Asian fusion. I’d give it 5 stars if I could. #Veganuary

Great pizza - Edit
I had the primavera - with cauliflower “cheese” so loads of vegetable on a gluten free base. Delicious. Unfortunately the waiter didn’t hear me ask for half fungo… as that has a great rating. Maybe I’ll get another chance?
