We were hungry, but not famished. We strolled around and looked at a lot of menus, before we decided upon Los Nopales La Quinta. It was a new restaurant to us. We went after diving and a beach day.



We ate outside in their beautiful garden patio area. The place was hoppin’.

There were beautiful succulents all over, and the owner took such good care of them. He had a lot of pride in his plants, and when one table had a dying plant, he looked through his garden until we helped him find a suitable replacement, that he placed on our table.

Our hotel offered a deal to get free beach chairs, and snacks, so we weren’t hungry enough for a big meal. We decided it was a pizza day. We decided on a Mexican pizza. Once again though, our eyes were bigger than our stomachs, and we took it home to enjoy at a later time.

Before our pizza arrived, we had our first introduction to the delicious cosolitos drinks or bebidas. Cozumel – More Than Just Trompitos

We were entertained by the resident gatos while we were waiting for our pizza to arrive.




When we were ready to leave, we gave little bits of the pizza crust, or pizza bones as we call them, to the kitties. They liked it so much, one came right up to the table asking for more.
Los Nopales La Quinta was a pleasant and enjoyable little find. We had never been there before, but the food was delicious and the servers were very friendly and helpful, even though they were running all around because they were so busy. That is a very good problem to have. We would definitely go back again. 🙂
Have a great day and make everyday great. Stay safe and stay well. ‘Til next time.
Mexican pizzas? That’s a fusion step too far!

The place looks lovely, and the kitties are beautiful, but how is Mexican pizza different from the regular one?
