1. Café de Yara
$ | |There's something refreshing about this two-story corner café; maybe it's the doors flung open to catch the breeze, or the walls painted the colors of lemons and limes. Good choices include the pollo a la pasilla con nopales (boneless chicken breast cooked in a chili sauce and covered with bits of cactus) and the filete de res a la pimienta (beef simmered with peppers). Make sure to end your meal with a cup of organic coffee, the specialty of the house.

2. El Huachinango Feliz
$$ | |The location of this two-level restaurant, just next door to the Hotel Xibalba, has made it a favorite with tourists, but locals frequent the place, too. The plates are big, and the food is varied and delicious. The freshness of the seafood is a big part of what makes dishes like the chilpachole de mariscos (a slightly spicy tomato-based seafood soup) delicious. The filete de pescado (a shrimp-stuffed fillet of fish baked in a banana leaf) is another delicious option.

3. Maya
$$ | |Billed as Palenque's oldest restaurant, Maya opened for business some six decades ago. It sits so close to the main square that you can hear the birds that come home to roost each sunset. The tables in the dining room, swathed in magenta fabric, always seem to be crowded. The three-course set menus at lunch are a good deal. Dishes served à la carte include medallions of róbalo, a local fish that is equally tasty fried or breaded. The coffee drinks are among the best in town.

4. Maya Cañada
$$ | |This thatch-roof restaurant in the La Cañada neighborhood on the south side of town is one of the prettiest in Palenque. Grab a table amid the fragrant gardens, and listen to musicians play softly (evenings) as you choose one of the regional dishes like pollo en mole chiapaneco (chicken in a local version of the dried-chili classic) and a soup of chipilín (a local herb). Skip the dry shrimp and go for the whole fried fish. Maya, the downtown restaurant, is owned by the same people, but has a different vibe.

5. Restaurant Las Tinajas
$ | |The coffee is good at this sunny corner café, but it's also a great place to stop in for a meal. (Just be prepared for leisurely service.) The menu includes a wide variety of Mexican dishes, including the delicious sopa de ajo (garlic soup). The pechuga de pollo en chipotle al gratin (chicken breast with chipotle and topped with cheese) is also tasty, but if you're looking for a simpler dish, you can also order more American fare—including burgers and fries.

6. Trotamundos
$ | |A sign in front trumpets that the place is "Economico," and, indeed, you will get a bargain meal here. This place is always packed, and usually with locals—a sign that the food is great. One woman makes tortillas at the entrance to the restaurant, while another slices fruit at a different station. A cheap 70-peso comida corrida (set-price lunch menu) is available. A torta (sandwich) of tender cochinita pibil (a pork dish) is excellent, and for breakfast, try the showstopping chilaquiles con carne.
