    The cathedral looks even more magnificent at night!!

    First time eating at this place, I ordered the Arrachera Campestre and as an entree I had Guacamole with Chapulines. The main dish was pretty good, my only complaint is that the guacamole was not freshly made. The service was okay. What can beat this view?

    View from the restaurant.

    Nice restaurant elevated above the Plaza with nice views of the surrounding churches. I wasn't very hungry and ordered an ensalada with the usual greens that had fruit, nuts, and goat cheese. There was the slightest hint of dressing on it. I usually prefer a nice blue cheese dressing but this is Guadalajara and that doesn't happen here. It was still good and I enjoyed it. The bread and salsa they offer were delicious.

    Good place with friendly waiters and nice food (not to much, not to little). Give the shrimp de agave a try (as recommended by other yelpers) it's a nice performance and very tasteful.

    Best location, outstanding service, great food. I found myself drawn to the outdoor seating area of Antigua because, to me, it was a great place to people watch. I visited so much the waitress stopped asking me for ID for my credit card. The service in Mexico is, generally, excellent and Antigua is no exception. A glance at the waitress is all it took to get a check, another beer, or to order food. The restaurant is located inside and that's really nice, too. The smallish inside restaurant had a Mariachi band when I went up to use the bathroom. Great view from there, too. All in all I was extra happy.

    Good cold beer, good beer specials (2x1) and the food is good and pretty authentic. Take it from a Mexican, this place kicks a$$!

    The view was a great plus as it's on the second floor and the balcony opened up to the plaza and cathedral.

    Definitely a great place to check out if you are in Guadalajara. The birria was delicious…read more They give you tortilla chips, salsa, and fried beans while you are waiting, which is not a long time since they serve quickly. The aguas frescas are okay, not made from scratch. We ordered the orden de birria to share. It's about right for two people, but if you like more meat, it might not be enough. To make it work for us, we ordered two quesadillas and a consome (birria soup). Note that the order does come with freshly made tortillas.

    No sabía que venir a este lugar de birria iba a ser una experiencia... tan íntima. Desde que me…read moresirvieron el plato sentí que algo en mí se estaba derritiendo, y no era solo el queso. La birria llegó hirviendo, burbujeando como si me estuviera coqueteando. El olor... santo Dios. Ese aroma me abrazó tan rico que casi me hace cerrar los ojos en plena mesa. Cuando metí la tortilla en el consomé, la cosa se puso peligrosa. Esa mezcla espesita, caliente, resbalando... mejor ni digo lo que pensé, porque no es apto para horario familiar. La carne, suave al grado de que se deshacía con solo mirarla. Yo también me estaba deshaciendo, pero por otras razones. Cada mordida me hacía sentir como si alguien me estuviera diciendo al oído "ándale, uno más". Y yo obedecía sin poner resistencia. El consomé... uff. Esa cosa estaba tan profunda y tan sabrosa que sentí que estaba metiéndome en problemas. Y lo peor es que me encantó. El personal muy atento, preguntándome si quería más, y yo tratando de no contestar "sí, pero de todo". Uno tiene que mantener la compostura... aunque sea poquito. Salí de ahí lleno, sudadito y con la conciencia dudosa. Conclusión: No sé qué brujería hacen en este lugar, pero esa birria despierta cosas. Y todas buenas.

    Ready for some steakhouse cuisine when you're far from home and all they seem to have is tacos?…read moreWell you're in luck because this place has got your cravings by a covered. Just to preface I really think this place is more of a 4-star joint but they just tried so hard. But onto the goodies. Made a reservation to come in, and when we arrived my lady went up to the hostess to be let in. They told her the kitchen was closed. I was busy paying the Taxi, but when I walked up in a suit and told them I was 5 minutes early for my reservation they changed their tune. All of a sudden this place was open and the welcome mats were placed at our feet. The service felt rushed, so I recommended coming in closer to dinner time. When you can enjoy a less hurried experience. We started with calamari a salad and pork tacos. I went for the ribeye and didn't look back. My The steak was a bit overcooked as the searing went a little deep, but overall it was still juicy and pretty good. They brought out a little hat and some complimentary dessert for my birthday which was nice and even sang las mañanitas. So if your looking for some fancy decor and some lovely environment in which to enjoy your food, you'll be happy you came here

    We had just arrived to Guadalajara and glad we found this restaurant open and close by our hotel…read more It is beautifully decorated, inviting, welcoming and upscale. Our server and staff were friendly, attentive, welcoming and happy to answer any questions. We stared with Jamaica margaritas and were greeted by salsas and tostadas. Salsas were tasty and go from mild to hot. We ordered the tuetanos de res a la parrilla con champiñones and added escamoles to try. The tuetano was delish and the escamoles and acquired taste, but we tried them! We wrapped up with fish tacos and an oblea with cajeta which was delish. Just what we needed to wrap up the meal.
