About the restaurant

De pronto como amantes de la cocina estamos necesitados de encontrar en nuestra ciudad un lugar acogedor, pequeño, de caras conocidas y cálidas. Un ambiente relajado y fresco, que no sea pretencioso, pero sí inspirador.
Tostévere con una propuesta de cocina ecléctica y ambiciosa, ha ido cumpliendo expectativas altas de comensales exigentes. Algo que puede caracterizar al lugar, es la cocina “honesta”, tal cual la describe Antonio, quien realizó el menú. Porciones y precios correctos. Ticket que no destaca por barato pero que con gusto acabas pagando: productos de calidad, cocina trabajada, servicio de excelencia y calidez.

About the restaurant

Fari: Trattoria clásica, de personalidad italiana y toques contemporáneos. Lugar muy estético y acogedor; donde la comida italiana destaca por su honestidad en su calidad de ingredientes y elaboración. Con terraza para disfrutar un buen coctel o cerveza de barril. La sofisticación de la cocina de Bocaciega, y el talento italiano de Davide Giribaldi, reúnen el talento para esta nueva propuesta en San Miguel de Allende.

What a lovely experience. Everything was well done. Good food, attractive setting, outstanding service from Emiliano. The Christmas menu was varied and well prepared. Highly recommended and we will return. It is on the pricey side, especially drinks, but well worth it for a special occasion.

About the restaurant

La cocina mediterránea da un salto de creatividad y sofisticación en San Miguel de Allende. Inspirado principalmente en comida griega y libanesa, Bocaciega ofrece una propuesta arriesgada (ya que combina con cocinas de otras partes del mundo), pero bien lograda. Cocina que no tiene miedo a experimentar ni en sabores ni presentaciones; pero que destaca por su calidad en cada característica del platillo. Lugar armonioso y moderno, en un ambiente cálido y atento.

This our second visit to the Resturant. Both visits have resulted in 5 stars from us. The service from Max is awesome and very personal. The food is unusual and prepared perfectly. The Argentine steak is brought to the table after you have had time to complete your starter or cocktail. It is important to know that the restaurant is open to the elements so dress accordingly. We will be back again within the next 10 days to sample other offerings on the menu other than beef.

Great food. Great service. Great ambiance. Really enjoyed every dish. Our table ordered the Ghar platter, shrimp curry, shrimp lassooni, and a saag panela. Everything was fantastic. Looking forward to the next time we are in town.

About the restaurant

La terraza en Numu tiene una ubicación ideal para mejorar todavía la experiencia tan apreciada de las terrazas en San Miguel de Allende. Está en Nemesio Diez, a unos pasos del parque Juárez y con excelente perspectiva de casas y torres de iglesias coloniales, especialmente de la Catedral de San Miguel Arcángel. En esta terraza se puede disfrutar sin prisa, de un exquisito menú de desayunos con platos ricos, abundantes e indulgentes, además de opciones saludables. El chiste es despertar sin prisa, comer con calma, y darse el regalo - más raro cada vez - de estar, sin ver el teléfono ni el reloj. Ese es el verdadero lujo, el de tener tiempo para disfrutar, es estar con quien se comparte la terraza.

Luego, por la tarde, es un punto maravilloso para dar la bienvenida al atardecer, que será casi un ritual, por su posición. Será la música que ve caer la tarde, y de ahí, la noche que mantiene este espíritu de no correr, de no tener que demostrar nada, porque simplemente, es.

What a beautiful space to enjoy delicious food. Our party of four enjoyed the Cesar Salad, Cheeseburger, & fish of the day. Every dish was prepared to perfection. Our server was delightful and attentive.

About the restaurant

Chef Vicente Torres is a chef originally from Ibiza, a Spanish island in the Mediterranean and one of the most well-known cuisines in the world, which influenced his cooking. He received his first Michelin star at the restaurant La Sucursal, in the Valencian Institute of Modern Art (IVAM). The concept was developed and executed by Bruce James, who with an eclectic and sophisticated design, managed to create an atmosphere that escapes San Miguel de Allende. The ornamentation, reflections, and geometry play an important role in constructing a timeless environment that refers to the aesthetics of Art Deco, and at the same time, has design touches that place us in the current context and intensify the contrast between the past and present. The eclecticism that characterizes this project can be seen in its cuisine, a mix of a brasserie and a steakhouse. The bar was recovered from an old cantina, which now offers an exquisite selection of whiskeys and classic cocktails.

The food was excellent in our first visit to this restaurant. Recommend the octopus and huichinango. The dishes came out a bit slow considering that the place was not full. Otherwise no complaints.
