Reviews
It felt like dining at a Michelin-star restaurant in New York City, but rooted in local ingredients and a strong sense of place. If you’re in San Cristóbal and don’t eat here, you’re missing one of the best restaurants in Mexico.
It’s located in a typical, charming colonial house with a variety of seating areas, a sophisticated decor and dim lights in the evening for a refined atmosphere. I particularly liked the area with bookshelves lining an entire wall.
The restaurant has both a seasonal menu (a la carte) and a tasting one that comes with different pairing options: aguas frescas, craft beer or wine. To enjoy the latter, you need to budget around 3 hours and 1,900 pesos. I tried the seasonal menu. The mole coleto with prawn was exquisite and I do recommend it. The mole, with its rich combination of cacao, almond, and chile, provided a complex yet harmonious flavour profile that paired wonderfully with the delicate saltiness of the prawns. It could also be prepared with chicken. For those unfamiliar with mole, the dish has a quite unique, intense taste, so I recommend approaching it with an open mind – it’s a bold choice and one that will likely surprise your palate. Coleto means from San Cristobal. My dessert was the classic crème brûlée with orange on top, and it was everything you want in a perfect one: creamy but not heavy with a thin caramelized crunch on top, with the orange bringing freshness and balance.
The service is impeccable, and the staff were prompt and courteous.
It all left me eager to go back!
Do not miss the ‘Gordita de Chamorro’, your would be avoiding the best dish on my opinion.
Great service too.
5 stars to chef Marta Cepeda & team
Martha and her husband gave us great recommendations. They are passionate about food and they care about the qualities!! Every single dishes/drinks are highly unique but all inspired by local history and ingredients. We had breakfast here and came back for lunch on the same day. We have been in many Michelin restaurants in Aisia and Europe. This one is as good as those world class ones! And they won many national awards already!!
The colonial residence where the restaurant is located is reminiscent of calm, warm, and safe times with family. The waiters were great, going beyond just listing the ingredients, but also taking time to explain the food and its ties to the region.
The tasting menu is very filling and the price excellent. The juice pairing was a journey of its own, and I think “aguas” doesn’t highlight the richness of the compositions well enough. The juices didn’t seem chosen to match the associated entrees, but that’s only a minor complain and it didn’t affect the joy of the meal.
