    We’d gone there for a cooking class a couple of days earlier and were eager to try out their versions of several authentic Mayan dishes they taught us to make. Ours were pretty good, mostly because Chef Juan was a fine teacher. Theirs were exquisite.

    Lovely food and service. Be prepared that the main protein in most of the dishes is pork. The tortillas are absolutely different from any other tortilla. You can tell that the food is prepared in very authentic traditional Mayan ways. The drinks are also unique delicious and interesting. Highly recommend.

    We visit Ix Kool each time we visit Cozumel. The cooking classes are fun and the food and drinks (non-alcoholic) served during the class give you a wide variety of taste of Mayan food and drink. The class is just the right mix of interactive cooking and eating food prepared by the chef. The staff at this restaurant are the nicest people you will ever meet. We look forward to our visits to Cozumel so we can visit Ix Kool.

    Great meal and drinks. Enjoyed the authentic dishes. The octopus and pork were especially good as was the lime soup. See you next year!

    Have dined here many times. This time even though there was a large noisy party of thirty on the ground level we requested and were placed on the loft and our service was excellent considering the crowd. They remember us from previous visits and made sure we were well taken care of. Sikil p’aak great and Pipian pork tender and tasty. Our server, Paco was great and Juan stopped by as he always recalls us. Thumbs up to another outstanding dinner at Ix Kool. In the end $40 for two including desert to share and soft drinks. Best authentic Mayan food in Cozumel.

    This was an awesome dining experience! Not only was the Mayan cuisine so different that the traditional Mexican food, but the explanations from Alex & Martin made the flavors come alive. Our favorite was the Mayan tostada - pulpo gently cooked in incredible spices with just the right topping of pickled red onion! Thank you to Martin who sold me on my new favorite margaritas- Chaya - a green leaf that made you think of healthy green juice - with lime & tequila, it was perfect! Don’t miss this restaurant - and Alex & Martin couldn’t have been kinder…
