The story
Crafted with passion, served with love
A Destination Table on the Riviera Maya
Autor sits along the Carretera Cancun in Ciudad Chemuyil, a stretch of the Yucatán coast where the jungle meets the Caribbean. The restaurant has earned a Wine Spectator Award of Excellence for 2023, a distinction that speaks to the seriousness of its cellar and the care taken in pairing wine with Mexican cuisine.
The Wine Program
The Wine Spectator Award of Excellence is not handed out lightly — it recognizes restaurants that offer well-chosen lists with appropriate breadth and depth. For a Mexican restaurant in this part of the Riviera Maya, that recognition signals a commitment that goes beyond the plate, treating the dining experience as a complete composition of food, wine, and place.
An Evening Worth the Drive
Autor is an dinner destination, drawing guests who make their way down the coast for the occasion. The combination of its coastal Yucatán setting and a wine list recognized on an international stage makes it a compelling stop for anyone traveling between Cancun and Tulum with an appetite for serious Mexican cooking.
