   Food was great. Had the taco platter and queso fundido as well as some drinks. Finished with the twinkies tres leches. Would come back. It is a bit loud though, so it’s hard to have a conversation

   Tulum was a treat! Between the service, the food and the great craft cocktails I couldn't have been happier. Will definitely be returning soon!!

   I like the tacos at Tulum. I typically get the special 8 taco platter. They let you get as many different variety tacos as your table would like. It's a pleasant place. My only one complaint is that the tacos are always served at room temperature at best. I would like to see the tacos with beef, chicken, shrimp or fish served warm to hot

   Overall nice experience. Food lacked a little salt. The presentation of the guacamole was nice but I think the garnish veggies could’ve been smaller cuts or not there altogether. My friends & I were going to do the bottomless brunch but margaritas were not an option to choose:( so we had the margarita flight instead, AMAZING!!! The tequila was so smooth!! The tacos were ok, wish they had an option to mix & match 3-4 vs the 8 option. Had the s’mores dessert, good but wish the graham crackers were crushed up more to make it easier to spoon out. Decor was nice except the holiday decor still out. Music could’ve been a lil better too but overall good vibes. I’ll def go back!

    Tulum looks inviting from the outside. Which is why we decided to try it for a date night. Upon arrival we noticed the Mexican restaurant only played pop & hip hop music. This clashes with the Mexican decor, perhaps I am being harsh. It was “Taco Tuesday” choose 4 tacos per person. The tacos fit in the palm of your hand (I’d like to think I’ve an average size hand). Being a pescatarian I focused on the fish & vegetarian options. Most were not tasty, there was an over abundance of sauce and salad drowning the featured fish or vegetables. The tacos were messy and one could not get enough napkins to manage the debris. Our wait person was okay. He quickly checked to see if we were ready for a second round, but we hadn’t finished with the first. After that it felt like he forgot about us. I tried to eat a second batch but it wasn’t appetizing and my fiancée was done after her first batch. The presentation was fair, the interior design was fair the tacos were sub par. I’m glad we stuck to water and bottled soft drinks. We were disappointed by a place who emphasizes that they specialize in tacos and tequila. At $30.00 per person I departed feeling ripped off. I’ve been to less attractive places with better food and service. Save your money & time, dine somewhere else.
