This is a small local chain, and we went to the one on the Progreso beach. Sure, it looks like a spring break spot, and maybe it is, but the place is run very well and has probably the best beach views. We ordered the whole fried fish, the first time I ever summoned the nerve, and what do you... More

Great prices on beer, excellent botanas and a fun atmosphere for an afternoon or evening, usually with live music and great service.

We had our credit card number stolen when we paid for our meal. Strange charges appeared the next morning.

We are at Eladios one afternoon thinking we would just drink a couple of beers. Their concept of free bar food is one that I was not prepared for but took full advantage of. They kept bringing out the yummiest Mexican dishes. Very hard to not get rolled out of there from the amounts of good food. The quality was... More

Eladio´s chain of restaurants are the soul of Merida. Have a beer and you get 3,4,5 small dishes of the true Yucatecan cuisine. Cheap, fun, live music and lovely peole ready to cater to your every wish. Try the new one in front of the best mall in Merida, Altabrisa, you won´t be dissapointed!

Ive visited here a quite a number of times in the last couple years and i have never been dissapointed with the quality of seafood. Eladio's has several locations but this one in Progresso is my favorite. Better get here early though because dispite being pretty large, they fill up pretty fast. Seating includes inside, outside, a palapa deck and... More

Excellent place to go whine down, the "botanas" (snacks/appetizers) are plentiful and the beers are cold, and a great ambient, live music and dance floor for your enjoyment. Parking is limited, but half a block is an offsite parking lot.

So eladios has many locations in Merida and one in Progreso to eat. Here is Mexico places like Eladios are called botaneros where with every drink you purchase you get snacks. Of all the botaneros in Merida and the beach this is the best, we try and make it a point when in Progreso to meet with friends and family... More
