“Fish tacos. You can get them anywhere in the world but Mexico is the best.” – Ryan Crosson (Visionquest)
“Tacos al pastor. It’s a classic and the ones at El Fogón are fabulous and delicious. Chile relleno is a great Mexican plate you can’t miss. And always accompanied by a Modelo Especial beer and some tequila shots!” – Chus & Ceballos (Stereo Productions / Toolroom Live)

“I love to eat all Mexican cuisine, I do not discriminate and ain’t mad at any food out there, we try all kinds of foods and meals. We even found poutine at Los Tabernacos which is surprisingly good, just as good as the real deal.” – DJ Sneak (I’m A House Gangster)
“Tacos, mole and ceviche.” – Acid Mondays
“I’d have to say one restaurant I frequent and love is Aldea Corazon. It’s right on 5th Avenue, which is the main pedestrian street, and it has a gorgeous garden and cenote tucked away in the back.” – Nicole Moudaber (Last Night On Earth / The BPM Festival Official Closing Party)
“Anything with fish!” – Cassy (Paradise)
“My favorite spot to hit is El Fogón, great tacos and nachos. I love the Mexican food so much sometimes I go there multiple times in one trip!” – Mark Farina (I’m A House Gangster)

“Guacamole, anywhere they make it fresh. I love the little taco huts off the strip too.” – Lee Burridge (All Day I Dream)
“I don’t know what the name of it is, but Ryan Crosson and I went out looking for food in Tulum last year and found a little joint that said, ‘Best Fish Tacos In The World’ on the sign out front. We tried it, and they were not kidding. We went back again the next night, and they were seriously that good. I will walk up and down the road in Tulum this year looking for that place until I find it. Best Mango Habanero sauce ever created.” – Lee Curtiss (Visionquest)
“El Fogón.” – Stacey Pullen (No. 19 Music – Social Experiment Mexico / The BPM Festival Official Closing Party)
