The definitive spot to try yucatan's most famous breakfast food "huevos motulenos". The service is really good and the taste is super fresh... The tomato says what really makes the difference. A must visit spot in Motul!
We stopped here on the way to Chichen Itza. It was only 25mins from where we are staying in Telchac Puerto. Very cute little town. This area was buzzing and the market was open and busy which was nice. All units were up and open and full of items for sale. We didn’t have much time to look around, but what we saw was nice. The building itself was clean and filled with nice smells. It had two floors. We had breakfast at Dona Evelia’s which is better than we expected. We’ve been in Mexico over two weeks so far and this by far was the tastiest meal we’ve had. The service was fantastic and the place was very clean. The meal includes a side of fried plaintain, unlimited drink (ice tea, Jamaica or horchata) and a bottomless basket of bread. For four people we paid a total of 410 which is unbelievable. We will definitely be back for more huevos motulenos! UPDATE: We came back the next day for breakfast again and it was just as good as the first time! This time we had the postres as well. We ordered one of each: carrot cake, banana cake and milk cake. They were delish! Had to pack them up because they were so big! There was live music this day which was nice too.
My wife and I visited this place so as to taste the famous Huevos Motulenos on our latest trip through Yucatan and Quintana Roo. After our landing at Merida Airport, my wife and I were quite starving, so, we decided to commute to Motul to have some Huevos Motulenos as breakfast, it was a 45 minutes drive from the airport. We parked our car just aside the Carrillo Puerto Park which is some few steps from the November 20 Municipal Market, where Dona Evelia’s Venue is located. The place is settled at the upper level and almost a half of the floor is owned by Dona Evelia’s place, it has enough room to sit very huge groups, surely you will always find a table. The service is fair, not too slow, not as fast, just be patient. The crew is very friendly and attentive, if you request flavoured water, your glass is refillable. The main dish, huevos Motulenos are impresive, tasty and deliciosos, what we liked the most is the habanero chilli taste, its flavour is unique and adds a spicy touch to your meal. The course is served along with beans and fried banana slices. If you are not used to eat spicy food, be careful, this dish adds habanero as a main ingredient and tends to be quite hot.
The perfect place to have the original - "Huevos Motulenos". The egg portions are well served and the desserts are amazing.

Good place for huevos motulenos. I had been told this was the original location where they were invented by a cook, and then named by Felipe Carillo Puerto, then governor of Yucatan state back in 1921
Best huevos motulenos in Mexico. A common dish in restaurant menus all around the country. Serving cafe de olla, cakes and fresh flavoured water.
