We ate here twice: once was take away & the 2nd I was dining alone. Takeout: The steak my husband ordered was very thick--a nice filet. The accompanying salad was very nice. He ordered a veggie pizza for me which tasted much better than it looked. Eating in: I ordered a plethora of items from the menu, intending to take... More

You know this place is good. It is always busy. As a Uruguayan restaurant, it is a bit meat-driven, but driven well. There are also plenty of vegetarian options. Lovely service! The pizzas are also excellent. I am still dreaming of the empanadas we happily devoured: cheese and mushroom and beef, olives and red pepper. For some reason the red... More

We went to this place because we were tired of fish tacos. It was too hot for steak, so we shared several empanadas and the most awesome salad on the Yucatan, the Uruguayan salad. The empanadas had a wonderful flaky crust and imaginative fillings (manchego and green olives - yum!). The same family owns the juice and croissant place next... More

We have been visiting Puerto Morelos for 18 years. This is by far our best dining experience. The food, service and price were amazing. We had pasta, steak, pizza and chicken. They were great. Al Chimichurri is a must.

We visited on two occasions - the first when the restaurant was extremely busy so we tried to focus on the food and not the at-times painfully slow service. Very generous portions of steak and pasta. We returned a few days later right at opening expecting much better service - staff still seemed overwhelmed. The bolognaise spaghetti (despite it curiously... More

Al Chimichurri reminds me of the nicer, pricier eating place you would go in the states when you are tired of the little places. The atmosphere easy and the staff was friendly. The menu had quite a bit on it, a good variety and costs a little more than most places. My husband ordered a ribeye and I ordered the... More

No table at the restaurant so went next door to the Wine Bar but was served from Al Chimichurri menu with good wine from the Wine Bar. We sat in the courtyard and it was very pleasant. Had steak, pizza and chicken which we all enjoyed. Generous portions and well presented. Definitely would recommend this place.

They arrived -about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick - gristle . cooked to well done- ( tough to do otherwise with a piece of meat sooooo thin.) took one bite and... More
