So many improvements, too. When we left Ajijic at the end of February 2025, they were renovating the restaurant 'in town.' What a lovely surprise to discover the renovations to the temporary location. Fantastic job! That's the only thing that's changed. The food, service and staff are as excellent as always. The steaks, cooked precisely as you wish, play a starring role, accompanied by a delicious demi corn on-the-cob and a baked potato, as classic as it gets. Bruno's has salads, and meat options other than steak plus a decent wine list. Desserts are available.

Sadly it only comes with one rib and for big guys like me I could have easily had 2. The sides were average I prefer a more creamy and rich mac & cheese. Sadly our brownie for dessert was sent back. It just tasted like the brownie was missing ingredients and wasn't sweet and rich like we were hoping. If you're in Guadalajara and want some good BBQ check this place out!

Yves himself also came and sat down with us for a bit to chat; truly the best service we've gotten in Ajijic. The ribs and queso fundido were exceptional. The steak, to me, could have had a little bit more of a crisp outside, but it was still yummy. Salad bar was very nice as well. For drinks, the Cadillac Margarita is worth it, and the kir royale was great too.

When I first moved to GDL way back in the day, I lived walking distance from the market. There is no better place to start your day than in a market in Mexico. Back then, breakfasts were MEX$30. They have upped the price to MEX$40 but it is still the best deal in town. The carne asadas are not cheap, but that is because they are using good quality meats: arrachera de res, cordero y avestruz. One more thing that most tourists need to try is menudo. You know, the tripe and pig foot stew. I really don't like menudo in the USA, but I go crazy for it here at Alfonso's. I'm telling you, its about the ingredients. You should spend a little time walking around the market. It is mostly for wholesale, but there is about two blocks worth of retail volume sales. If you are feeling crazy, go get a crate of avacados because you will find some of the best and cheapest produce you have ever seen.

The only reason why I'm giving four stars instead of five is because of the road noise from the cars and trucks passing by. But the view of the lake and mountains are beautiful and the patio is comfortable and spacious. The limonada is fresh and tart; I recommend it with mineral water and slightly sweet. To order this in Spanish just say, "limonada con agua mineral con poco jarabe". There are two dishes that I particularly enjoyed here. They are: one. There are two dishes that I particularly enjoy here. 1. Arrachera con papa y verduras al vapor: skirt steak with baked potato and steamed veggies. It's flavorful and delicious. The potato may be smaller than you expect, but it's all yum when JT comes to the table. 2. Pizza Charly: wood fired relatively thin crust pizza with sausage, pepperoni and ham. Perfect sauce and crispy crunch. For dessert, don't forget the strawberry flambé nestled under vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, chocolate sauce and nuts. The only recommendation is for them to bring you a bigger spoon because your table mates will devour it before you can say: "Que te pasa, guey!" Translation: "dude, what is wrong with you!" #wtf I'm a big fan of this spot, and if you get a hug from a little girl who's about that high, don't be alarmed. That's just Charlotte, she is the daughter of which the restaurant is so named.

To say I was disappointed would be an understatement. To begin instead of two Chiles we were only given one a piece. The Chile is normally served with pomegranate seeds on top, we were told that they were out of pomegranate seeds. That's part of what gives it it's flavor! When we took a bite...the inside was cold! We had to argue about it with the waitress as she tried to tell us it's supposed to be and got her nose out of joint when we asked her to warm them up. This used to be a good place to eat, sadly it no longer is. I won't be back
