This place is far from your traditional Mexican food. But after having been in Mexico for a week, I needed a break from tacos (but don't worry, we'll be back to our regularly scheduled taco eating tomorrow). Dinner started with some delicious bread and dipping oils. For dinner I ordered the Tuna entree and it was DELICIOUS! The tuna was seared and cooked to a medium rare and served on top of a bed of vegetables. It was so fresh and delicious. We washed it down with the house sangria, which I watched the make at the bar right in front of me. So I know it was fresh and it was the best sangria I've ever had. Decor was modern and upscale. And the service was great! Our waitress was kind and patient with my terrible Spanish and our food came out quick. This place was definitely more expensive than your typical food in Mexico, but Guanajuato is a tourist town, so it was expected. It was also not expensive compared to American dinner prices. It was about 900 pesos for us all to eat and have drinks, which is about 55 American dollars! Overall, I definitely recommend stopping here for dinner any night you're here! read more

My first 5-star dining experience in Guanajuato. We stepped in to be surprised by a delightful interior. The interior decorator knew his/her stuff. (See photos) We ordered drinks. While we waited, bread came with infused olive oil. The bread was ok, but the infused oil was tasty. We we got our drinks we knew we were in the right place. The house red wine was delicious. I never expect much from a house wine, but this one was the best wine we've had in Mexico. Not saying much I know, but still, it was yum. My margarita was perfect. A perfect balance of flavors. Not too week, not too strong. Not too sweet, but clear sweet citrus flavors. Then we shared their signature salad. It was an unusual combination of ingredients and yet very tasty. My partner and I were both hankering for pizza, so we took a risk. Is there good pizza in GTO? The answer is a definitive yes. I got their signature pizza. Except for the pistachios, which I love but we're a tad weird on a pizza, it was amazing. I'm not usually a thin crust lover, but it was perfectly done. My partner gambled on a pepperoni pizza. It wasn't pink! It seems like much pepperoni in this region is some strange pink substance, but not here. True tasty Italian pepperoni. We were too full to consider desert, but I look forward to going back to try it. Our service was good. Overall, a perfect dinner. read more

This restaurant has some great dishes. Their empanada dish is really tasty and so are the different salmon dishes. Almost everything I have had here has been good. Their Pie De Elote dessert is subtle and excellent. The chef is definitely creative and has a rich culinary pallette. I once had a bean soup here that was awful. Hope the chef works on that dish as it could potentially affect the rating of the restaurant. I wish they would get rid of that gigantic and ugly black and white mural of a chef drawn on the wall of the main dining area. It clashes with the general decor of the place and undermines the remaining tastefully done decorations and atmosphere. read more

Nice place for dinner. We're order some salad and salmon pizza (for me I don't like pizza so much) also they're have a nice drink and restaurant is beautiful and near by town square. read more

My husband and I received attentive service and had a delicious meal in this comfortable restaurant. My husband wanted pizza and I was fine with that but also wanted a healthy quantity of vegetables. The salads listed on the menu all sounded great but the waiter confirmed they were entree, rather than personal, sized and so he suggested the roasted vegetables. I'm glad I took his advice, they were unexpectedly fantastic! In addition, we had the salmon pizza. The crust was perfectly cooked, the sauce and toppings were good, and the cheese was to die for. Excellent overall. read more

La Capellina - The roasted vegetables were unexpectedly fantastic! Served in a tower with a base of the same excellent cheese used on the pizzas. - Italian Near Me - Guanajuato, GUA

Service was horrible. They took too long to take my food order even though I told the seating hostess I was starving. Soup was a little salty. The good things are the atmosphere and location. I loved the stone walls in the section I was seated. read more

The food was very bland. For being an Italian restaurant I expected some flavor. It is located in a very busy area and my first clue that it wasn't very good, should have been that it was empty. The food is overpriced as expected for the area it is in. I paid $49 pesos for a small can of Coca-Cola, when you can easily find a 2 liter bottle for less. Definitely do not recommend this place. read more

Great place for dinning, I spent like 2 hours over there with colleagues from work. The cooks were fantastic. Good job!

Bad service but lots of seating. Not a busy joint. Comfortable chairs but nothing to say about the food. The inside decor is interesting, somewhat artsy. read more

I can't understand the negative reviews of this place. Too expensive- you're delusional. Sub par service - what are you talking about? The service and the food were both great! I can't find a thing to complain about. Best Italian food we've found in Guanajuato. Would not hesitate to recommend this to anyone. read more

This place is absolutely wonderful! The inside decoration is very antique-y and artsy, and it's very comfortable. It's not too terribly busy during lunchtime, but in the evening it does get packed. The waiters are extremely helpful in describing the options they have! They have wonderful music at night on the weekends at a pretty late hour. It tends to be very jazzy and gorgeous. Their pizza is very Italian with a thin crust and the ingredients are top notch, whether you choose the typical mozzerella-basil-tomato or the classic pepperoni (or half and half). The drinks are a respectable size, and the juices are very fresh. The tiramisu was very heavy and required two or three people to completely eat it but it was divine. If I were to have one complaint, it would be that I was by the window and it began to rain and they didn't notice, so I struggled to close the wooden window door until someone came along to help. I definitely recommend this place for dinner when visiting Guanajuato, especially if you're in the mood for Mediterranean cuisine. read more

We went in mid day (about 4:20) for a quick bite. There were no other tables. Since it was early we only ordered water to drink. They served some bread with two dipping sauces. Bread was fine, sauces were tasteless. We thought it was odd that one of the sauces was an herb olive oil because every table had a small carafe with olive oil which had a sprig of thyme and a red chili marinating inside. Once we looked closer at this olive oil, we saw that the thyme was moldy where it was sticking out of the olive oil! We then looked at these on other tables....and they ALL were moldy!! We pointed this out to the server and she quickly took them all away and brought us a new one. This was fine...but it takes a very long time for thyme in olive oil to become moldy and for these to be still served on every table is atrocious. Appetizer was a Portobello on Polenta. This was fair at best - Portobello was chewy and the polenta was a hard fried square. We shared a main of Salmon with a Guajillo (hot pepper) sauce. Well instead of a nice drizzle of spicy Guajillo glaze/sauce, it was swimming in a bland, thin, salty sauce. Could not even taste the fish and the skin which was left on (ok if it is crispy) was a limp soggy mess on the bottom. Most awful salmon we have ever eaten - we managed to eat about half of it. Our only guess is that they have a new cook post-covid who is trying to do the menu which a previous chef prepared. read more

This is a higher than average Italian restaurant with a lovely atmosphere. Menu includes appetizers like salmon and beef carpaccio, dinner size salads, pastas and wood fired pizzas and some entrees.. We sampled a pizza which was great-thin, tasty crust, nice sauce, cheese and toppings. I ordered salmon carpaccio and it too was very good in taste and portion size. If you're looking for a change from Mexican cuisine and are roaming around Centro, this is a good choice. It's quaint and located just a few doors east of Teatro Juarez. Total bill was under $25usd. More adult ambience but I'd guess kids are welcome too. read more

Rather expensive for GTO but we had no problems with the food or service. All we had to do was look up and our waiter was right there for whatever we needed. The pizza is the thing here and the beer selection is not bad. Credit cards accepted but no AMEX, which is a thing because the platinum card doesn't charge a foreign transaction fee. We didn't have enough cash for the bill, so we ended up paying with a VISA, which drove the price up even more. Overall, this is a fine place to have a good dinner in the heart of the colonial district. read more

Both me and my dad had terrible pastas. I had to hold back an urge to throw up after I finished my plate.

The pizza was fantastic -- but they served white turkey meat and insisted it was "imported duck". I've lived in several countries and never had duck that tastes like turkey! Where was this "imported" from??? read more
