(Plaza Chica) Plaza Gertrudis Bocanegra
4.4
(8974)
Nestled just a block north of the bustling Plaza Grande, the Plaza Gertrudis Bocanegra, affectionately known as Plaza Chica, serves as a charming retreat in Patzcuaro. This vibrant square is adorned with lush trees and colorful flowers, creating an inviting atmosphere for locals and visitors alike. At its heart stands a statue honoring Gertrudis Bocanegra, a local heroine of Independence who played a pivotal role in her community's history.
My favorite town in Michoacán alongside Morelia. This plaza has some of the best local Mexican food I’ve ever had for the best prices I’ve ever seen in a popular town. Beautiful, old, historical, and romantic setting with a humble local vibe. I recommend the birria de borrego, tacos, tamales, enchiladas, and various soups.

This is a beautiful square in a beautiful city. We loved getting to visit patzcuaro, michoacan. And if we are ever in the area we would definitely go back.
Loved it this are vendors on a street corridor in Pátzcuaro Michoacán in Mexico but they are very clean, delicious food, prices are very reasonable.
We were just passing through the city and stopped to do some shopping and get a agua fresca. We happened to be there the day of the Corpus Cristi celebration parade.
Very old, historical. (Read up on the history). Plenty of seating. Shady and sunny areas. Traffic passes around all sides, but not too distracting. Well keep. Clean.
Like every time I have the opportunity to visit, it is a pleasure. Great atmosphere, awesome cuisine and many dishes to choose from. Love their people, very friendly and welcoming to everyone. It's definitely one of the. Must go places.
Great place to hang out and people watch.
Nice little plaza in Patzcuaro. Usually, it is busy, likely because there is an entrance to the market. The market is worth a visit. You might find vegetables and fruits, say Europeans like me, have never seen. The prices are very decent, if not to say low. In addition, the market has lots of Cocinas Economicas, with good quality food.

La Surtidora is a charming Mexican and Latin restaurant located in Patzcuaro, offering delicious traditional cuisine in a quaint setting facing Plaza Vasco de Quiroga. The ambiance is delightful, with the option to dine outdoors or indoors amidst shelves stocked with various items for sale. The menu features delightful dishes such as Uchepo and Swiss enchiladas, along with options for special diets.
We stopped at this restaurant by chance, knowing nothing much about it. What a surprise!! Our server was amazing considering our poor abilities to speak Spanish and his somewhat limited ability in English. His recommendations for dinner items was perfect. The food was delicious. Our drinks were great. The coffee and desert (carrot cake) was a great finish to a very enjoyable evening on our very first day in Patzcuaro Mexico 🇲🇽

The food we order has great flavor. All waiters were wearing face mask I guess as precaution. The service was excellent 👌. This is a great place to rest and also have a cup of unique coffee which they also sell.
My favorite restaurant in Patzcuaro Michoacán Mexico. Located in the central square and close to everything downtown.
The food is a mixture of traditional Michoacano foods and international cuisine.
The staff is amazing and the chef is excellent! The atmosphere is casual, upscale, and calm.
Inside the restaurant is classic colonial architecture with a rich ambiance. Outside on the sidewalk sitting under the arcade overlooking the plaza is just perfect. We tried their Michoacán specialties and enjoyed the exploration. Service is relaxed so don't expect to be in a fast food environment but the staff are cheerful and attentive. No credit cards!
Highly recommend a visit.
Quick service, nice ambience, great location, tasty food, good portion size and not too expensive. Despite being vegetarian, we found adequate choice of sopa tarasca, corunda con raja y queso and spaghetti. The lemonade was fantastic as well. Greatly appreciate that all waiters wear mask, face shield and gloves. Clean toilets. Cash only.
It’s good, nice place to eat, chat, and have breakfast. The view is nice for people watching. Variety of wines and drinks.
Is fine the place is beatiful with the old furnitures , but the service is awful, including the fact that they don’t accept credit cards, the food is regular…
The location is great and the selection of drinks is even better anywhere from coffee and chocolate to tequila and charanda. You can also find traditional food and desserts. Stop for a coffee or a drink and a cigar right at the edge of the Plaza. The price is right but the place gets crowded and service can take a bit long.

Restaurante El Patio is a popular dining spot located in the heart of Vasco de Quiroga square, offering a taste of local regional cuisine from Morelia and Patzcuaro. The restaurant is known for its well-prepared dishes and great service. Visitors can savor traditional Michoacan platters, unique tacos, fresh salads, and delicious mole with distinct flavors.
Restaurant Review: El Patio
It's on the south side of Plaza Grande in Pátzcuaro.
This restaurant has been here since the last century. The food has always been good, but we were told they have a new chef, so we went to check it out. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience: good service, nice atmosphere, delicious comida.
Travis L — Google review
Really excellent food with attention to detail. Transitional menu work very high quality... Beautiful salad, rich tamalitos, and some of the best hot salsa we have had. Highly recommended!
Food was okay not the greatest. Michoacán’s mezcal isn’t my favorite, I’d stick to Oaxacan mezcal.
Great spot to eat local regional food from Morelia and Patzcuaro. Everything was clean, well made and the service was also great. I ordered a Mole. It wasn’t my favourite mole of all time but it was great. This mole isn’t as sweet as the mole poblano actually it isn’t sweet at all you will taste chili and other flavours first.
Very good food Good atmosphere good service thanks
We had such a nice afternoon people watching, eating a typical Michoacán platter making the most unique tacos and a fresh salad, with delicious micheladas and wine. Service was great for the most part bar one, and there was some attitude when we didn’t leave an excessive tip.
One of the best Sopa Tarasca I've ever had. Good service.
The food was very good as well as the service. They have typical food from the region but also international food.

Absolutely beautiful church with very interesting art, stained windows painted ceilings. Artesian selling in stands outside make it fun time to walk around outside as well.
Amazing place with lot of history

Huge cathedral, i attended a part of a service there, it was really nice and calm
One more church with its peculiar countryside charm. And a magnet for believers. You can feel the atmosphere of reverence. The image of the Virgin is a real masterpiece, starting with the materials she is made with.
Impressionante cathedral

Casa de los Once Patios, situated in the charming town of Patzcuaro, Mexico, is a must-visit destination. This historic architectural marvel boasts eleven captivating courtyards, each with its own unique theme and allure. Adjacent to Casa de los Once Patios lies the Santa Caterina de Siena convent, now home to numerous artisans showcasing the cultural richness of Michoacan through their work.
We came in early on Christmas day, before the crowds. Best decision we ever made. Authentic ponchos, beautiful tapestries, placemats, and copper and silver ware from around the country. Vendors are polite and not pushy.
Additionally, there is a miniatures store that is by far the gem of the patios. They don’t allow photos, and I didn’t realize it until I already took the video. Stop by there and just absorb it all.

Amazing! You get to see artisans doing their work. I feel very proud seeing that they still embrace the work that represent their culture. A wide variety of art work
Fascinating beautiful place. Inhabited by numerous shops with many regional art of every kind.
A must visit in Patzcuaro even if you don't want to shop.
It's free and beautiful. You can find a lot of interesting things there that you can buy and support the locals
Loved this place with lots of little artisan shops. The building itself is a 2-story colonial, built around 11 patios and courtyards which in turn are lined with individual shops and studios of many different artisans. I purchased some textiles as well as a gold leafed copper bowl. Patzcuaro is all about artisans and this is a great place to see a variety of them.
It's a beautiful place, where you can take amazing photos. The only thing I think I didn't like too much was the fact that there are a lot of local stores and I think it's more commercial than cultural.
Very beautiful historic site with artisanal shops

Definitely a "must do" if you've never done it.
Breathtaking views after the rain stopped, friendly wild dogs, amazing stair climb if you want to, otherwise the drive up is relatively easy. Stupid hours though. "Closes" at 3, Monday thru Friday, and 5 on Saturday! Sunset is the best part of being there I should think! We were there until at least 8 pm. without being run off, but we were told it was closed by then.
Amazing place indeed! Due to some road construction work, needed to leave car and walk the last 2 km to reach here. Beautiful stone path with fantastic views of Patzcuaro lake throughout! Carry water. Take sunglasses or hat. Wear comfortable shoes. Optional to climb the 422 steps to the upper viewpoint which has not much of a view, just good exercise from all the stair climbing!
Great hike!
Bring good walking shoes and active wear because you're going to sweat.
I liked it, its good to go and do some exercise with your family or dog.
The perfect view ,beautiful.

Located in the heart of Patzcuaro's downtown, Restaurant Bigoli is a fabulous establishment with an incredible chef. The pizza they serve is truly delectable, and their home salad offers a delightful blend of flavors. The pasta dishes are loved by children and the live music performances featuring opera singers create an unforgettable experience. A visit to this restaurant is a must, as their breakfast options are equally delicious. While the menu variety may be limited, each dish is expertly prepared and presented.
Delicious breakfast. It's menu variety is small but every dish is well served and prepared.
Javier G — Google review
My drink was lovely and presented beautifully by the waiter. My lasagne however was very poor. It was a wet lump in the middle of the plate topped with watery mince over the top. There was no topping, no extras and not even a tiny garnish. I’m not sure this lasagne even touched a tomato. No care was taken with making this plate. They charge 205 pesos for that one big spoon full of food.
The pizza here is a stone oven style pizza with a nice crunch to it and great flavor. The breakfast here is equally as excellent and does not disappoint. The only thing lacking here is service. Our wait staff didn’t write down our order either time we went and messed up the order both times we visited. Hoping they can write things down in the future so as to not have this issue as the food was excellent.
Very good atmosphere, excellent food and service from all in the restaurant.
We look forward to our next visit, which will be soon.
Loved the food, simple and easy lunch! I went with my best friend and will highly recommend it to anyone! The waitress attending us (Gina) was so sweet and beautiful! Love this place!
Such a great place in Patzcuaro downtown, her chef is awesome, pizza is delicious, home salad is tasty, my kids loved the pasta. Live music with opera singers is unforgettable!!! You have to pay a visit to this restaurant...
The food is nice and tasty but the service does not exist. They dont change the tablecloth for the next customers that will sit in thw same table. We waited at least 30 ,minutes for someone to take our order .
Worst meal I've had in years. The service and the food were both offensive. Stick to the street food. There's some amazing atole verde in the park:)

The service provided by the waiters was prompt and exceptionally friendly. Moreover, the food they serve is outstanding, prepared with great skill in the traditional Michoacan style. I will definitely return to this exceptional establishment.
The food was tasty and the service was incredible and it was still well priced for what it is. The garden is beautiful but it was chilly to sit outside

The restaurant it’s on a small outdoor patio. Service is great and the food is very tasteful. They accommodate vegans and vegetarians.
Highly recommended.
The environment is lovely. With a very romantic ambience. With a fountain and tree in the center of the outdoors option. They also have indoors seating.The service was fast and the waiters were very kind and accommodating. The food was very good. We definitely scored finding this place. I rarely leave reviews unless the place is exceptional.
We have now eaten here twice and have been very impressed on both visits. The courtyard table area is a lovely space, the service is first rate and the food is fantastic. The menu offers a wide range of options from the local traditional cuisine. All the dishes have been very flavorful and unique from each other.
This is the second time I have been at this restaurant. I appreciate the cozy and lovely atmosphere. The food is very good. I especially enjoyed the chilaquiles for breakfast. The coffee was delicious. I am Italian and people need to realize that in the Latin culture, such as Italy and Spain, when a waiter takes your order and then delivers your food they leave you alone and will not come back unless you ask them to. This is a custom in Italy and Spain, and I guess it is in Mexico as well. I prefer it to a waiter coming to you every few minutes asking "is everything ok?" while you have a mouth full of food. This place is very relaxing with delicious food. They give you time to enjoy a leisurely meal with family and friends and do not try to rush you out the door like in the US. I will be returning.
The place has a lot of options and food is really good. Service was too slow and it took us 2.5 hrs to have all food for a party of 8 people.
Great food

Absolutely incredible food, great service from Juan, and a tasty, unique cocktail menu! Great house wine and impeccable ambience, as well, including an orange tree that dropped two oranges while we were here!
Very nice, upscale space and food with great service. The menu is a creative interpretation on local traditional cuisines. Covered courtyard is a nice retreat with shops and art around the outside.
I had read very good comments about this place and had to come to check it out. Lovely place! Delicious food and one of the best trained staff I've found in Pátzcuaro. Everyone is very polite, prices are fair and the taste and look of the dishes is amazing!
We really liked it, the chocolate cake is very sweet but very delicious, also the chile relleno was great. The tongue was very good, but not outstanding. The place is also beautiful and the service good.
Delicious food great setting and wonderful service. This restaurant had to close while ago but I believe is under new ownership there certain things that used to have like pizza that I honestly Miss but at the same time when we plan on going again.

Restaurante Don Rafa is undoubtedly the most affordable choice in town. The overall quality of food in Patzcuaro is average, overpriced, and served in small portions. This unfortunate outcome stems from the influx of tourists to the area. For a safer option, Restaurante Don Rafa offers the best cuisine, which can also be found at local markets or street vendors.

Rice tasted old, beans had a strange taste. However Enchilada suizas were good. Very nice staff
Is good, but food need more taste. Spending is not bad at all. Beer is 45 to 65.
I had chilaquiles verde the first time, and they were wonderful. Today I had chilaquiles rojos. They were still good, but not as good as the chilaquiles verde. Don Rafa looks like a small restaurant, that is until you go up to the second floor. Great location near Plaza Chica.
It is without any doubt the best value in town. Overall the food in Pátzcuaro is very mediocre, very expensive, and the portions are tiny. It is the unfortunate consequence of the huge flow of tourists to the town.
The best food is to be found either in the markets or among the street vendors, but if you want to play it safe, this place is your best choice.
Okay local food... The sopa Tarasca was supposedly the best one in Patzcuaro (according to a friend) but failed to impress me. On the other hand, their guacamole was very good. The service was kind but a bit slow.
Excellent service, pretty decent food.
Small nice place
Food was okay, sopa tarasca not so good, had better in other place. Good service.

The Biblioteca publica Gertrudis Bocanegra, housed in a beautiful 16th-century church building, is a must-visit in Michoacan. The library features an impressive mural depicting the region's history, from its indigenous roots to the Spanish conquest and beyond. Inside, visitors can admire the wooden vaulted ceiling and explore a vast collection of Purepecha culture. While closed during some visits, the exterior of this historic building is still worth seeing.
Very old building and very nice to visit, they do not have many books, it is very quiet and many locals go to the place to study.

Don't miss the important and beautiful mural by Juan O'Gorman
(Translated by Google) Inside the library there is a mural related to the history of the Purépecha and the Spanish, however, with the market stalls under construction on the street, it seems that they have not been open for a long time. November 2024.
(Original)
Adentro de la biblioteca hay un mural relacionado con la historia de los purépechas y los españoles, sin embargo, con los puestos del mercado en construcción en la calle, parece que no abren desde hace mucho. Noviembre 2024.

(Translated by Google) After many visits I finally had the opportunity to see it inside and obviously the biggest attraction is the incredible mural by Juan O'gorman, which without fear of being wrong is one of the most spectacular in the republic, you have to dedicate a good time to admire this great work.

Israel and wife make delicious regional cuisine with fresh ingredients. We loved our meals.
loved how it's an actual family owned business, the guacamole was great as well as the sopa de tarasca
Did not try the torta de gelatina, but everything we tried was good
Terrible service and food.

(Translated by Google) Excellent food! The Tarascan soup is delicious, the enmoladas are delicious, and the gelatin cake is a must-try! I was actually there just because I was curious about the cake, haha, but the whole meal was a very pleasant surprise. The bill for three people was almost $500, which I think is pretty good.

Excelente comida! La sopa tarasca está buenísima, las enmoladas deliciosas y la torta de gelatina es imperdible!

The staff at Restaurante La tradicion de Apatzingan were extremely accommodating to customers with strict vegetarian/vegan/plant-based dietary preferences, willingly adjusting the menu as needed. The "chiles rellenos de uchepo" (a tamale made from sweet corn) proved to be exceptional, especially after swapping out the salsa for a dairy-free alternative. Prices were reasonable and the cozy decor added to the overall charm of the restaurant.
Everything I wanted from a traditional Mexican restaurant. The enchiladas were sooo delicious and the pork ribs amazing, you just have to mop up all the sauce with a tortilla!!!

Very helpful staff who were more than willing to adapt the menu for strict vegetarian/vegan/plant based needs. The "chiles rellenos de uchepo" (sweet corn tamale) were excellent (after changing the salsa to dairy free)! Prices are reasonable, the decor is cozy and the location (across from the basilica) is excellent. We have already been back once!
Food was very authentic and delicious served with handmade tortillas. Environment was great!
Very delicious and cheap food. The place looks very traditional as well. The staff is very friendly. Highly recommended if you’re looking for traditional Michoacán cuisine!
Steak was weird. I had same food in a different restaurant and it was fantastic, here I wouldn't order it again. Waiting time for drinks was a bit long. Toilets were in some kind of a storage room. But the place is situated in quite old building and has its spirit.
Fresh and local receipes and ingredients.
Nice and cozy place :)
Service was great they had the social distance had us check temperature, gel to wash hands at entrance , we were quick taken to a table , waitress was quick to take our orders , food tasted great.
Excellent food, top place to visit if you want to try delicious traditional food, owned by one of the eight Maestras Cocineras from Michoacán, a complete culinary trip through traditions

La Terraza de Antonia offers a splendid rooftop setting with panoramic views of Patzcuaro's Square. While the cuisine may not be exceptional, it is still quite satisfactory.

The establishment boasts delectable dishes from a distinct menu and provides excellent service. Additionally, they offer an extensive selection of mezcal, ensuring a delightful dining experience.
The food was so amazing that we ate way too much and had to walk it of. They made salsa at our table and even though it was hailing outside we were comfortable behind the glass enclosure

Only if you want the best of the best. Is beter than good on serice food and atmosphere i will drive back from morila only too eat here.
Exquisite food (they had a new card), very good mezcal, very good service, great view. Slightly expensive but well worth if you can afford it. Highly recommended!
Beautiful roof top terrace overlooking the plaza.
Unique menu and delicious food!
Despite the great view, service is very slow. We also asked the server to move an unused heater closer as it was a cool evening. He advised there were no working heaters available - then not more than 45 minutes later turned on the heater to provide another table with 2 heaters....
Food portions for pricing isn't going to give you the best value for your money.
Average wait time when ordering a drink was around 20-25 minutes at a time.
You're going to enjoy the street food a million times better.....
Nice place, decent menu but staff was pushy to get us to leave practically at their closing time. No restaurant I've ever been to pushes people out, unless it's like 2 hours later & they're not serving any more. Can't beat the view of Plaza Grande.
Great rooftop environment that overlooks the Square in Pátzcuaro. The food wasn’t the very best, but it was still pretty decent. I would recommend it if you’re in the area and looking for a nice place with a great view.
I have never been treated so poorly at a restaurant in Mexico. We were given the bill while we were still eating. Then, we were asked how we planned on paying while we were still eating. The food was mediocre. And the prices were high. Do not recommend.

Lovely, lively place, they have wonderful live music at least once a week on saturday. Local mezcal & local artisanal beer, & a fairly fine selection of local folk art. What else could you ask for?
Definitely a must visit place in Patzcuaro.
Awesome place for the community to come together for arts, crafts, food, drink and music. Don't miss out on an opportunity to see one of the musical performances! We saw a great performance from Viri Roots from Mexico City.
Great place for coffee, tea, or drinks! Full of wonderful artesanal items of Michoacan! Come for a drink chill out and buy a great one of a kind keepsake. Try some one of a kind local spirits or craft beer!
Great place hosting concerts and offering pulque, craft beer and delicious snacks amongst other things.
So happy to be a short walk to this venue. There is a little market attached that sells hard to find goodies, a cute artesan shop, wonderful bakery, and offers a diverse array of live music often.
I love the drinks with mezcal .
Stopped in to see what it was about and found a delightful and welcoming place. It has very good food, wonderful pastries made on site, a good looking bar and coffee. What more can one ask for?

Nestled just around the corner from Hotel Casa del Naranjo, Lupita Restaurant is a beloved spot among locals, known for its extensive menu and laid-back vibe. Diners can choose to sit indoors or enjoy the vibrant open patio adorned with colorful decor and comfortable equipale chairs.
We only had a few hours in Patzcuaro and this restaurant came highly recommended, so we thought we would give it a shot.
The service was excellent, our server was friendly and attentive and checked on us throughout the meal.
Before we ordered we were given tortilla chips and a very fresh (and very spicy) pico de Gallo. It was excellent. We used to take getting chips and salsa for granted at Mexican restaurants in the States, but it is a rare treat here in Mexico.
I ordered the Arrachera steak. It was accompanied with guacamole, beans, a pepper stuffed with panela cheese, and grilled onions. The steak was cooked perfectly and all of the sides were excellent. My wife ordered the coconut shrimp. They were delicious and so huge my wife couldn't eat them all (a good deal for me). Her shrimp were served with a Mexican rice.
We hope to be able to spend more time in Patzcuaro and when we do, we will definitely go back to Lupita's.
Jon S — Google review
Their sopa tarasca was my favorite! The guacamole was amazing. I really can’t think of any improvements.
Ok food. Nothing special, but good food and good service. The courtyard is lovely. The shock was the bill! Lunch and drinks for 3 was $1,800 pesos! Won't be going back at that price.
The food here was reasonably priced and quite tasty. This is definitely one of the “must visit” restaurants in Patzcuaro.
The most reliable place to dine in town!
While it's good to try out the many great places in town, it's great to have an amazing experience
We recently returned from a vacation in Mexico, out of every place we went, this was our favorite! Our food was delicious, best margaritas we have ever had, the service was fantastic too. Highly recommend this place
It had been quite a while since we have dined at Lupita's, so it was time for a revisit. It was a very nice experience overall. My limonada mineral was perfect. Chips and salsa on the table were a much appreciated touch. I ordered the pozole which turned out to be the green style. This dish was good, though nothing to write home about. The pork in the dish was just the pure low fat carne with none of the other "interesting" parts of the animal you find in more typical servings of pozole in this region. Because of this, the dish lacked a certain amount of richness. My wife got the salmon and rice salad which she enjoyed quite a bit.
The food and service are consistent. Nothing to Wow about, but haven't been disappointed, either.
The trout with dill was yummy, and they have very good Chiles en Nogada around Independence Day.

The Museo de Artes e Industrias Populares, situated in Patzcuaro, Mexico, is a must-visit attraction that offers a glimpse into the art, crafts, and tools of the Purépecha people. Housed in a 16th-century building that was once an ancient university, this museum is a treasure trove of the region's cultural heritage. It features an extensive array of locally crafted objects and artworks that beautifully reflect the fusion of indigenous and Spanish influences.
Beautiful museum that’s well worth the entrance price! One of the museum workers even guided me around to each of the 12 rooms to explain the history of the town and Purépecha indigenous culture. Amazing art on display. I learned so much!

Easy to do in 1 hour, we used Google translate/camera for the english translation.
Took off a star as the glass used to protect some exibits could use a cleaning.
What an awesome place to spend the morning! There was so much history to see. Going here really shaped my initial (albeit rudimentary) understanding of Mexico’s past and history. I highly recommend visiting this museum. Download Google Translator or attend with a guide to get the full experience!
This excellent museum has no signs advertising what's inside and if its closed the ere is no way to know what is inside or what the opening hours are. This oversight is absurd and frustrating because inside were is a superb collection of Pre-Columbian artifacts and explanations (in Spanish only) of the history of this area. Someone needs to stick a sign on the door to do themselves a favor.
This place is a gem, bigger than you think it’s going to be, even a little archeological site out the back. Don’t forget to look at the floors? You do have to pay to go in but $60 MX is not going to break the bank. Oh and everything is in Spanish! so use google translate and learn a bit.
My husband and I just visited this wonderful museum located in a beautiful historic building. Our guide was very kind and insightful. We had a great experience learning more about the popular arts of the area. Thanks for such s wonderful experience!!
Wonderful, little museum. Full of local arts and little treasures, both antique and present day. Don't miss the terra-cotta tiled floors of different patterns and outlined with thousands of leftover pork knuckle bones! Please do visit and support this wonderful little gem of a museum.
Small museum with a lot of exhibitions, it's a must cause brings great insights on history and traditions that remains nowadays. Went on a Saturday, admission fee was $ 55.00 mxn per person.

(Translated by Google) Excellent place, very quiet to enjoy with good company. The crepes are very delicious as is the hot chocolate.
(Original)
Excelente lugar, muy tranquilo para disfrutar con buena compañía. Las crepas están muy ricas al igual que el chocolate caliente.
(Translated by Google) The food they serve in the place is average, it doesn't taste good, there is also the detail that even without people it takes too long to prepare something very simple and they have three people working.
However, the place is very nice and pleasant.
(Original)
La comida que sirven en el lugar es regular, no sabe bien, además está el detalle de que aún sin gente tardan demasiado en prepar algo muy sencillo y eso que tienen a tres personas trabajando.
Sin embargo el lugar está muy bonito y agradable.
(Translated by Google) Good food, good cousins, but the service is what lowers the star. The waiters were abrupt, with no option to ask about the menu.
(Original)
Buena comida buenas primos pero el servicio es lo que le baja la estrella el meseros fue seco sin opción a preguntar por el menú

La Escalera Chueca is an adorable establishment that combines traditional and modern elements in its decor. The cuisine is delicious and reasonably priced, making it a great option for both meals and drinks. Their appetizer selection is impressive, and the breakfast offerings are flavorful with generous portions. The customer service is exceptional, ensuring a satisfying dining experience. While the menu mainly focuses on traditional regional dishes, it may not be as innovative as some other restaurants in the area.
Cute place, very traditional decor with a touch of modern! Food was very good and reasonably priced. We were there for drinks one night and their selection of appetizers is quite good. Breakfast the next day; large portions, tasty food and excellent customer service. 👍

Great space with quality food and service. Traditional regional cuisine based menu, but not as creative as some other places on the plaza. We enjoyed it.
Unfortunately I did not have a good experience. I ordered "pulpo a la diablo " that on the menu came in a bed of mashed potatoes with grilled asparagus. I received the octopus in a bed of rice, with broccoli and green beans on the side. I complained and they made it right but with some inedible, fiborous aspargus. The octopus was rubbery, realy unworthy of the $300 pesos asked for the meal.
Horrible experience! A piece of glass was in my Fathers dinner plate, luckily he was able to feel it in his mouth before swallowing. Also the chef tried to say that my Father put the glass there on purpose. Unbelievable.
(Translated by Google) A more than excellent option to eat delicious food in the center of the city. The service is friendly and fast from all the staff. The menu is extensive, with traditional and modern options to please all tastes. The facilities are charming, spacious, of good taste, combining modern with baroque and traditional. The dishes, well served, well presented, with good flavor. And all at a more than fair price in view of the good experience received. Advisable.

Una más que excelente opción para comer rico en el centro de la ciudad. El servicio es amable y rápido de parte de todo el personal. La carta es amplia, con opciones tradicionales y modernas para complacer todos los gustos. Las instalaciones son coquetas, amplias, de buen gusto, combinando lo moderno con lo barroco y tradicional. Los platillos, bien servidos, bien presentados, con buen sabor. Y todo a un precio más que justo en vista de la buena experiencia recibida. Recomendable.
(Translated by Google) I loved the place, we ate in the doorway so I didn't see the interior. The place is very comfortable, the tables and chairs too. There are not many street vendors, you eat calmly and the food is very good.
Among those of us who ate there we tried Tarasca soup, churipo and carnitas with guacamole. The churipo and the Tarasca soup are very good. They have no objection. The carnitas were good but when they started to cool they became very hard. Difficult to chew. They recommended the seafood molcajete. I only saw it on another table. It looked good. The treatment of the waiters is very good. Very attentive and friendly. I loved the place. Very rich coffee.
(Original)
Me encanto el lugar, comimos en el portal así que no vi el interior. El lugar es muy cómodo, las mesas y las sillas también. No hay muchos vendedores ambulantes, se come tranquilamente y la comida es muy buena.
Entre los que comimos ahí probamos sopa tarasca, churipo y carnitas con guacamole. El churipo y la sopa tarasca son buenísimos. No tienen objeción. Las carnitas estaban buenas pero al momento que se empiezan a enfriar se hacían muy duras. Difíciles de masticar. Nos recomendaron el molcajete de mariscos. Solo lo vi en otra mesa. Se veía bueno. El trato de los meseros es muy bueno. Muy atentos y amables. Me encanto el lugar. El café muy rico.
(Translated by Google) Update:
The food on the occasion I went, recently, was no longer so good and in my opinion the price-quality ratio was not up to par, I ordered some Swiss enchiladas again and a water, they charged me $250 pesos. They were not worth it, average flavor.
(Original)
Actualización:
La comida en la ocasión en la que fui, recientemente, ya no estuvo tan buena y en mi opinión la relación precio-calidad no estuvo a la altura, pedi unas enchiladas suizas nuevamente y un agua, me cobraron $250 pesos. No valieron la pena, sabor promedio.
(Translated by Google) This restaurant is located at the south portal of Plaza Vasco de Quiroga, far from the busiest arcades and street stalls, which allows you to enjoy the terrace and relax. Inside, the place is also comfortable. The menu is not extensive, but it has the basics of local food and something more. A snack of cueritos that was seasoned with orange juice and pickled vegetables especially caught my attention. Something especially good. The charales are also extraordinary and the service is excellent.
(Original)
En el portal sur de la plaza Vasco de Quiroga se encuentra este restaurante, a distancia de los soportales con mayor bullicio y puestos ambulantes, lo cual te permite disfrutar de la terraza y relajarte. Al interior, el lugar también es cómodo. La carta no es extensa, pero cuenta con los básicos de la comida local y algo más. Me llamó especialmente la atención una botana de cueritos que aderezan con jugo de naranja y verduras encurtidas. Algo especialmente bueno. Los charales también son extraordinarios y el servicio es excelente.
