AAA Diamond Inspector Notes

Housed in a centuries-old building rich with character, this inviting restaurant offers more than just a memorable meal—it provides a cultural experience. A small museum on the second floor, open to all guests, adds a distinctive touch, making it well worth a visit after dining. The menu artfully blends Spanish and Mexican culinary traditions, resulting in a diverse and appealing selection. Standout dishes include the classic chiles en nogada, an array of well-prepared steaks and a flavorful pork chop. The restaurant also excels in its traditional mole offerings, featuring rich and complex varieties such as poblano and pipiÃ¡n verde. More inventive options, like paella and lasagna made with huitlacoche, showcase the kitchen's creativity. Additional highlights include a comforting tortilla soup and a selection of Spanish tapas. Live music adds to the ambience, with frequent performances spanning genres from flamenco to blues and jazz, enhancing the lively yet refined atmosphere. Service is polished and attentive, delivered with a congenial and engaging style that elevates the overall experience. Guests should note that the restaurant closes early on Sundays, at 6 p.m..
