About us

El Nicho is a family owned restaurant located in the beautiful ocean side town of Puerto Morelos in the Riviera Maya, Mexico.  Our quaint restaurant offers a wonderful atmosphere for having breakfast and brunch a few meters from the Caribbean Ocean, while people watching or simply catching up with friends.   We specialize in traditional and innovative foods, using locally sourced fresh and organic products whenever possible   We have a variety of dishes where everyone that comes is sure to find something to their liking.   All  made fresh to order, one at a time. From our amazing eggs benedict, to our waffles, varied egg options, homemade granola, Mexican specialties and all other plates on the menu, we guarantee you will not be disappointed.   

El Nicho provides our guests with multiple sitting options, from our front patio to indoor dining and our latest addition…the beautiful Terrace where you will be surrounded with lush greenery and walls covered with eclectic and vibrant murals to make your experience much more enjoyable. We have made our interior walls available to local artists so they can display and sell their work. 

We strive to make your time with us extra enjoyable and our commitment to you is to provide the best service possible with the most delicious tasting meals you will enjoy in this paradise called Puerto Morelos.  As we like to say.. life is delicious at El Nicho!!!
