Cetli is run by Puebla-born chef Claudia Pérez Rivas and is recommended by the Michelin Bib Gourmand. In a kitchen that feels like a home and is open to guests, she grinds moles on a traditional metate stone mill, continuing the classic methods of high-end Mexican cooking. The Michelin-cited istak is fish poached in seawater and served with white almond mole. Other dishes include poblano chiles stuffed with huitlacoche (corn smut) and red peanut mole, and black mole chicken rolls. Moles are available to take away in jars. Main courses start at about 450 pesos. Open for dinner, about 2.5 kilometres along the Tulum to Cobá road, roughly a five-minute taxi ride from the town centre.
