A group of my friends and I ate here. The service was very professional. The ambiance is wonderful. My suggestion is to eat there when it is dark. The foliage and lighting is impressive and sophisicated. The food was absolutley delicious. The chef is obviously skilled. Who knew you could make chicken taste so wonderful. We also loved the bread... More

We had a combination of ribeye, tenderloin steaks and grilled salmon, all cooked to perfection. Great selection of wines, in all price ranges, by glass to bottles of Opus One. Our wine was the perfect temperature and Rodrigo our server, was quite... More

What can one say about Trotters that hasn`t already been said. They are the epitome of dining pleasure. Food, service and ambience are world class. If you haven`t been to Trotters, you have missed out on one of lifes best experiences.

We enjoy the modern, cosmopolitan style that Trotter's Restaurant has to offer in a city of very good food but little ambience. The space is spectacular, especially the garden with its towering shade tree and tropical plantings. The service is always polite and courteous and we often observe Mr. Trotter walking the restaurant and checking on details. There is a... More

Elegant setting. Great place to go to impress a date or client. Attentive staff, very good wine list. Not a cheap place but Im a big fan of you get what you pay for. And you do get what you pay for here.

We sat outside and looked in at the gorgeous lighting and architecture of Trotters. Started with cocktails, did not disappoint, than ordered an appy of spinach dip....loved it. Better than... More

Good environment, place to brag about going to dinner. A bit overpriced, regular international food found in any restaurant. Main attraction is in the domed garden inside the restaurant. Sometimes very good, sometimes not that much. Try it once, and you´ve tried it all!

Even though Trotters in Merida is no relation to Charlie Trotters of Chicago you will find a restaurant that has dedicated itself to excellence in the culinary arts.Service is impectable and the ambience is to die for. Insdie and outside dinning in the courtyard is very romantic. This is a must go to for a great night out in Merida.
