The locals know that this family-run and guided restaurant is fantastic and while for many it is only for special occasions, for visitors from abroad the prices are very reasonable (about 700 pessos for two, with alcohol drinks and dessert Feb 2021 . If you arrive, your drinks will be taken and you will be brought to Totopos (Fritten Tortilla Chips, two different salsas and limes) There is a very good selection of appetizers (10 options – from deep-fried crabs Tacos to smoked trout mousses and shrimp cocktails.

The food is absolutely delicious and *safe* (hygiene and Kovid measures are strictly observed. If you make it to this small town in the hills of Veracruz, your meal in Tío Yeyo will delight!

Excellent local cuisine only in the center, but the service was a little slow. The best chilpachole soup and very fresh trout.

Tucked away in the country in a beautiful peaceful setting is this interesting family run restaurant. Nestled in a forested valley with a gently running creek, trout farm, singing birds and sweet drifting fragrances, El Tio Yeyo's setting is ultimately relaxing and peaceful. The food is exquisitely prepared and tasty. Overall it makes for a great outing for family or a romantic meal for two. Highly recommended!

There is the 'in town ' Tio Yeyo and there is the Tio Yeyo in the countryside. The later is probably best accessed by taking a taxi... but well worth the trip. The setting is lovely: forests, river, trout farm, cabanas and a rambling restaurant with views. The menu, not surprisingly, is all about trout. Actually, there are 41 different ways that trout is prepared there. Our meals were memorable. You can order something else if trout is not your thing.

Excellent traditional dinning with trout as main dish. I'm going back. You have a wide selection of trout dishes, all very appealing
