This fairly new restaurant in a very old building was a fantastic find. The food is stellar, and…read morethe high-style modern restaurant in an old space is beautiful. Puebla is rumored to be the birthplace of mole. Supposedly a group of nuns was unable to exit their convent for a lengthy period, and took to steeping chicken in chocolate and spices, creating the slow-cooked chicken mole recipe. In reality, almost every Mexican grandmother makes their mole differently, with no standardized recipe. In what turned out to be a silly decision, we rented a Hertz and drove to Puebla from Mexico City. There's a modern tollway for the majority of the way, but surface traffic slows to a nightmarish crawl in Mexico City and in Puebla itself. The Hertz rental desk person gave us an unintentionally funny instruction on what to do in a possible shakedown by police on the way (each rental car is clearly marked as a rental in Mexico). Restauro (which means "restore" in Spanish) references both the restoration of the historic building for the restaurant, and the restorative qualities of great food. This place excels in both. The setting is beautiful. It's essentially a very modern space located in a very old stone building. Mood lighting and dramatic design effects are everywhere. They also have some striking modern art in the space. The real star of the show is the food. The aforementioned chicken mole was off-the-charts fantastic. Those nuns of days gone by would be very proud tasting it. There are some interesting twists on traditional Mexican cooking, including a variety of salads and "nouvelle" preparations. Each dish was beautifully presented, and the service was polite and fast. The waitstaff was both very funny and very efficient. If this restaurant was in my city, I would definitely be a regular.

Great local food! This is right outside the Rosewood Hotel alongside 4-5 other restaurants. I came…read morehere for lunch in a group of 12. There's no air conditioning but the breeze comes through. We got the typical traditional Puebla dishes - * chile en nogada (stuffed poblano pepper in nut sauce and pomegranate) * cecina (thin, marinated salted beef) * green enchiladas * caldo (soup) with chili * mole with pork (cerdo) * chalupas combinadas (chalupas with red salsa, green salsa, mole) The bread with avocado and cheese is not complimentary - I think it was like 60 pesos per order, and they brought out 2 orders without asking. Deducting a star for that and the ambiance, or lack thereof. 75 pesos for 2 Palomas (citrus juice with alcohol and salt rim) or 2 sangrias during happy hour. Yes to the Palomas, even though it was made with lemon and not grapefruit juice. The agua fresca of lemon and chia seeds was refreshing too. Now the food is excellent. I don't think I had a favorite. They're all very different. The only thing I wouldn't get again are the chalupas. Fried dough doesn't appeal too much to me. The cecina was too salty for me, but I still enjoyed the flavor. The sweetness of the Chile en Nogada threw off my friends, but I liked it. Reminded me of Persian dishes like fesenjan. The mole was sweeter than I'm used to but was delicious, and the soup and enchiladas were great, too. The service is slow but the grandpa owner is the third generation owner whose grandma established the restaurant - and his grandchildren currently work at the restaurant, so 5 generations have been pouring into this establishment. Hearing the story makes it a part of the experience. So yeah! Recommended for food - perhaps even more so at dinner time when it's not so hot outside :)
