Riviera Maya
La Cueva del Chango
between 5th Ave. and the sea
Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo, Mexico
Meaning “the monkey cave,” La Cueva del Chango is an immersive dining experience. The restaurant is designed to resemble a cave, complete with small waterways, lush tropical foliage, and a pair of resident spider monkeys. The Mexican fare includes chicken in mole sauce with beans and rice, as well as tuna with a sesame seed and cascabel-chile crust. Juices and milkshakes made with fresh fruits are also served. Seating is available in the covered mock cave, as well as on the open-air patio.
Insider Tip:
Mosquitoes can be a problem during dinner hours. Ask the staff for bug spray, if needed.
