Diner was good. We had the "deal of the day" for 160 pesos per person and it was delicious Large portions, served fresh and quick. The lentil soup was good! The staff could be a little more assertive though, but friendly nonetheless. I recommend this place for sure.

I tried the fillet chicken and it was great. the service was a little slow though. the place is suitable for large groups and for couples too. they also have fresh juices to go with.

I tried the Pollo de la Mexicana and my friend had the chicken fajitas. Both were tasty and filling dishes served hot and fresh. I really liked the guacamole that came with the fajitas. Service was fast and friendly. They also take credit cards, which is uncommon in Palenque.

The roasted chicken plate is perfect. Choose between 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 or Full chicken. It comes with rice, beans, and plenty of tortillas! The guanabana juice was fantastic as well!! Good job Trota Mundo!!

Ich took the grilled chicken and was quite happy with it. Good portion. Lemonade was tasty as well. Be aware that you’ll wait a bit. I had time, but if you have less than 1,5h to catch a bus, don’t go.
