El Nativo
Playa Del Carmen | $
El Nativo (The Native) is definitely a restaurant in Playa Del Carmen that’s “off the beaten track”. Venture into town and you’ll notice that there are 3 El Nativos located steps away from each other. It’s a very simple restaurant that offers fresh fruit salads, smoothies, sandwiches, just the type of healthy food you’ll want while on the go.

Good enough for the locals, good enough for me
I like going to El Nativo for their fresh fruit salads and giant 1 liter smoothies. I hate walking there during the day because it’s located in the center of Playa Del Carmen, 30th Avenue and Constituyentes street to be exact.
El Nativo is 100% Naturals competitor and judging by the freshness + variety, El Nativo is winning this battle big time. 100% Natural has the better location (on 5th Avenue) but walk by El Nativo at any given time and you’ll notice that there’s always someone eating….locals too which is to me the no 1 sign you’re business is doing something right.
I managed to pound back half a liter of freshly blended smoothie (couldn’t tell you what it was, the menu was in Spanish but I think I drank some bananas and yogurt) and a whole fruit salad and some guacamole. I felt sick in a good way, I simply ate too much and when the bill came I was all smile….$115 pesos or roughly $10 USD to have eaten like a king.
So overall 2 thumbs up but the location sucks. Try El Nativo and you won’t be disappointed.

Holy litre smoothies!
The restaurant we originally wanted to go to was closed for another half hour so we went across the street to El Nativo. Wow so I had a 1 litre yogurt smoothie for 30 pesos! I was full off that alone. I also had the vegetarian sandwich. It was good however i prefer the vegetarian sandwich at DAC across the street. i noticed many local ate at El Nativo so you know the value and price is good. I ate lunch for about $8 usd. I recommend this restaurant.
