• No.32 Latin America's 50 Best Restaurants 2025

With a name that translates to 'unique spirit' in Mayan, Huniik is one of the most evocative gastronomic experiences Mérida has to offer. At the helm of the kitchen is chef Roberto Solís, who sharpened his skills internationally at restaurants including Per Se in New York, The Fat Duck in Bray and Les Créations in Tokyo. He is best known locally as the owner of Nectar, which has been a bastion of the local fine-dining scene since it opened in 2003. With Huniik as his second restaurant, Solís has fully polished his unique take on modern Yucatecan cuisine. The intimate restaurant is marked by shimmering golden stone walls with chandeliers of ribbon communicating a sense of ancient opulence. The same restrained glamour is infused in the inventive tasting menu, which deftly balances down-to-earth flavours with innovative contemporary presentations. Think bright aguachile centred around a singular fillet topped with fried scallops and served with wafer-thin tostadas, or the local catch of the day topped with a bright green 'caesar' dressing and lettuce foam.
