Review: Ajua Maya Restaurant
The Ajua Maya is on Calle 4 just west of 5th Avenue in Playa del Carmen. It looks like an average Mexican restaurant with a palapa roof, plastic chairs and tables, and lively Mexican decor. We were pleasantly surprised at the 5 star menu. They specialize in Mayan dishes. I had the lobster - prepared by a chef at our table. It was wonderful. The service was attentive and very friendly. Prices ranged from affordable to very expensive. The live music was amazing. They had a group of four musicians who looked to be of Mayan descent playing flutes and drums. Later they had a band from Mexico City that played Mexican versions of American classic tunes. This restaurant was one of the highlights of our trip.
