Chichen Itza Yucatan Restaurant Los Angeles


		Who we are

		Chichen Itza Restaurant is a family owned and operated business, now with two locations; one located inside the Mercado la Paloma in south Los Angeles, and the other on 6th Street by MacArthur Park. We specialize in Yucatecan Food, maintaining the authentic flavor of this original Southeast Mexican Cuisine. We are very proud of the awards and write ups we've received in our 7 years in business. Here are a few of them: "Link to Awards and write ups". Our food is unique and delicious, a change from the ordinary that you will most certainly enjoy.


		Our food

		The Yucatan peninsula of Mexico has one of this country's richest culinary heritages, its a mixture of Mayan, Spanish & Lebanese recipes. Chef and owner Gilberto Cetina uses these recipes and then adds a touch of his own to give our customers an experience they won't find anywhere else. Chef Gilberto has been recognized as one of the top Latino chefs in the country and has been written up in publications like GQ Magazine, Hispanic Magazine & Culinary R&B, just to name a few. Be it at our quick service operation at Mercado la Paloma (the original location) or our more formal-dinning MacArthur Park location, our food is made fresh, healthy, affordable & delicious.
