Chichen Itza
South LA, CA
Since opening their doors in 2001, the Cetina family’s goal has been to represent the food their native state of Yucatan as authentically as possible. They’ve been recognized as one of the best Yucatan style Mexican restaurants in the country, by publications such as GQ Magazine, Los Angeles Times, and People en Español.
Chichen Itza first opened its doors in 2001 by the Cetina family, Gilberto Sr., Blanca & Gilberto Jr. Since then, their goal has been to represent the food of our native state of Yucatan as authentically as possible. They want their guests to be transported to this beautiful region of Mexico with every dish they serve and experience the cuisine as if they were invited into someone's home. They've been recognized as one of the best Yucatan-style Mexican restaurants in the country by such publications as GQ Magazine, Los Angeles Times, Travel and Leisure, People en Español, Hispanic Magazine, LA Weekly, La Opinion & Condé Nast Traveler.
Today, Mr. and Mrs. Cetina are retired and their son Gilberto Jr and his wife Marissa are in charge of keeping this family legacy going.
"The restaurant, run by the Centena family, is the most serious Yucatecan kitchen in town, its menu a living, chile-intensive thesaurus of the citrusy, fragrant, sometimes searingly hot cuisine of the Mayas — panuchos, vaporcitos and the Lebanese-Yucatecan kibi — as well as the cuisine's most famous dish, cochinito pibil..." - Jonathan Gold
