Reviews For Yokok’ux Sabor ancestral

Juan Daniel Cruz Jimenez

Wow, I actually really liked this restaurant, I was fascinated to see how incredible it connects the environment and the cultural-gastronomic aspect. The staff is very friendly, the food is delicious, you even find a museum here. This place is open until approximately 6 in the afternoon, just 40 minutes from Villahermosa. Live music.

The restaurant fulfills its objective of knowing the traditional foods of Tabasco. We ordered several dishes and the costs range from 200; It takes a little while to serve the dishes, but it is because each meal is prepared at the moment (it is not previously prepared), so be patient in waiting for your food. It has areas to take photos, such as the space where the yumte'e tree is located and the wings that are made with tree leaves. They also have typical costumes of the state and very beautiful sculptures. I recommend the matali drink, it is very refreshing and has a smoky flavor.

Varied and traditional food, worth a visit because the seasoning is delicious. They have a small but very pretty museum, and the atmosphere is pleasant.

Such a simple and impressive place, the attention of the staff and kindness at all times, you feel that country atmosphere and above all you breathe tranquility. As their motto says, ancestral flavor suits it very well, personally I ate beef barbecue and it was very pleasant for my palate to feel all those flavors, especially the faint flavor of the banana leaf stood out. Very recommendable

Lovely place with a museum part where one of the employee showed and told us story about the ancestral ways.

A gastronomic experience closely tied to the ancestral cuisine of the Olmec Maya region. The dishes we tasted were excellent. I highly recommend the Pejelagarto salpicon. We finished with a warapo that I hadn't tried in years, but it reminded me of my childhood with my great-grandmother in Comalcalco—it was phenomenal.

A good experience. It has a museum and a large patio to thank nature for what it provides. The food is good, but some portions are small, but you'll still be full. No dish is anything you wouldn't find anywhere else, but everything has flavor, combined with the traditional preparation. The place is quiet and the service is good.
