Food: 9/10 Service: 10/10 Ambiance: 10/10 After days of tacos (no complaints!), we were ready to mix things up and La Trattoria was the perfect choice. Located on the second floor right in front of the park where the mariachi plays and next to the iconic Teatro Juárez, this spot offers not only fantastic food but also one of the best views in town. Picture a charming, rustic setting overlooking the lively street scene below. La Trattoria blends Italian and Mexican flavors beautifully. I had the tuna appetizer and shrimp tacos both absolutely delicious and full of fresh, bold flavor. Others at our table enjoyed a variety of pasta and seafood dishes, and everyone left impressed. The drinks were also a hit they offer a solid mix of cocktails, from traditional cantaritos to crisp martinis. Whether you're in the mood for something a little different or just want to soak up the atmosphere with a great meal and a view, La Trattoria is a must. We'll definitely be back! read more

Sunday night dinner. Spectacular view. Great wine. Good service. Terrible, and I mean 7/11 and Diminos have better pizza. Terrible fettuccine alfredo, and I mean worse than microwave pasta. Delicious rack of lamb & bass filet. Come for the drinks and view, not food. read more

This place was ok, the food lacked flavor. It had a cute patio though, service was ok. I feel it was overpriced for what we got. We had the fried mozzarella and steak with some kind of cheese topping. read more

We were craving some Italian food and La Trattoria's menu looked delicious. I didn't check out any pics of the place so I was so excited to see that it was a restaurant on the second floor with balcony seating! Yay! We were initially seated at a table in the dining room, but after requesting a table on one of the balconies, we were moved as soon as one became available. We really enjoyed the people watching, especially since the Callejoneadas meet and start their tour right below. So fun! We ordered a bottle of wine and a couple of soups (I got the tomato cream and he got the minestrone) and both were delicious! They also provide bread with the most delicious butter I have ever had in my entire life. I'm serious. I wanted to throw this stuff in my purse and take it home with me! For dinner, he got the filet medallions in gorgonzola sauce and I got the spaghetti carbonara. Both were AMAZING. The menu is really big, so you're bound to find something that you'll love! Service was perfection, vibes were perfection, views were perfection, wine was perfection, food was perfection... you get the point! Just go already! read more

Following a frustrating car hire ride to a new city I required food and drink stat. My hotel concierge was happy to point me to La Trattoria, about a 20 second walk away, on Jardin de la Union. The best seats in the house - and the only ones worth inhabiting (IMO) - are those on the small balconies lining the second floor restaurant As soon as one opened up my server asked if I'd like to relocate and it immediately turned my frown upside down. A seat on La Trattoria's balcony gives you an ideal view of everything going on in the plaza below, the busiest of all plazas in Guanajuato. I shot a quick photo from this vantage point and sent it to my brother who immediately responded; he knew exactly where I was. Service was excellent, the wine flowed, and my starter - a Marlin Taco - was delicious. The main courses, a Pasta Puttanesca and a Pasta Carbonara, were good but suffered the same problem as I experienced elsewhere in town: They'd have been 98% more enjoyable had they been served steaming hot. Maybe request as much when you order your entree here. Even a tepid pasta did little to stop the joy I experienced from my balcony seat. Below me the city throbbed with costumed Calleonadas, teenage girls getting professionally photographed in their Quinceañera gowns, a side-view of the impressive Teatro Juarez, and Mariachi bands assembling for the nightly music extravaganza. If you've just arrived in town I think a balcony seat at La Trattoria is somewhat of a must. read more

The staff was accommodating, quick, and welcoming. The food was well made (shrimp tacos, vegetarian lasagna (I think), and side of potatoes. I would opt out of this and probably try something else if you decisive to get the ribeye combo. The potatoes was very dry and just not that appetizing. Their sangria was mediocre, so I would probably try something else on the menu. Also, try to get a seating near the balcony for a great view! (No reservation was needed when I went in) read more

Food was subpar. Truly disappointed. I was recommended this restaurant by my AirBnB host which I suppose should have been my orange flag but I decided to go out try it out. We ended up ordering the medallones & the chicken maliense. My beef was raw & the chicken had abosulutely no sauce so it was extremely dry. The service was mediocre. I ordered my dressing in the side but they ended up putting it in the salad. The view was nice because we got to sit outside but not worth it for the food. read more

A fine dining experience. The view of the Jardin was spectacular. My minestrone soup was perfect and in fact was a full meal. The cheese cake was delicious. So good was the food all around that I selfishly ignored my other diners. We will definitely go back. I promise I will tell everybody. read more

This place was really great, the view from the balcony was amazing and easy to get a table and sit. The tuna appirizer dish was great and so was the pizza. It's easy to fall into tourist trap locations where the food is meh but this place was delish. read more

La Trattoria - View from balcony - Pizza Near Me - Guanajuato, GUA

This is a very attractive property overlooking the main plaza. Get balcony seating if you can to watch the street scene. Started with an nice rose from Ensenada, crisp and a nice fruit. Started with the Caprese salad, nice tomatoes and not to much balsamic. Ordered the 4 cheese pizza, take my advice, don't. The thin crust is overwhelmed by a mount of cheese with no discernible flavor. I switched to a chicken cutlet and green salad which were both really good. They took the pizza of the bill no problems. All in all a nice place to eat with good service, reasonable prices and a wonderful view of the square. read more

I've been traveling to this area of central Mexico on business for more than a decade and one city that never disappoints is the very old but well preserved city of Guanajuato. Very cool town. This picturesque town which is nestled into a narrow valley surrounded by steep hills and mountains. It was settled in 1522 by the Spanish after silver was discovered here. It is known for its narrow and winding streets as well as its tunnels constructed under the city to allow rain water to run off without flooding the silver mines. La Trattoria is strategically situated kitty-corner from the town square which is covered with uniquely sculpted shade trees...a very comfortable place to hang out for relief from the sun. You gotta love La Trattoria's tables that cantilever out in the fresh air on the second floor of the building. We started our dinner with a pair of appetizers including the Fried Mix - shrimp & calamari with a garlic Chipotle sauce and Mozzarella in Carriage smothered in their spicy hot sauce. Both brought the heat we wanted and expected. At the reco' of a local at our table, I jumped for the Divine Comedy...a delicious combo of beef tenderloin medallions w/ a 4-Cheese sauce and shrimp w/ a sweet sherry sauce. Even Dante would have loved this dish. Fantastico! Others at our table tried some of the signature Italian pasta dishes including the Spaghetti Bolognese and the ricotta and spinach Stuffed Cannelloni. Life is always good w/ fresh made pasta. Cinco estrellas. read more

El lugar se encuentra en pleno centro de toda la acción. Hubo un poco de espera para poder pasar(unos 10 minutos). El lugar estaba repleto. Nuestro mesero apenas podía alcanzar nuestra mesa para entregar los platillos. A pesar de esto, nuestra comida llegó rápido y calientita. Todo estuvo deli-cioso!!! El melón que venía con nuestro jamón serrano estaba en su punto. Las bebidas también riquísimas. Recomendado. read more

My husband and I are frequent visitors of Italy for their explosive flavors and ambiance. Didn't expect to feel and eat the flavors of Rome. Every item from the mouth watering salad, savory/magnífico lasagne, thin crust pepperoni pizza, creamy Tiramisu and flavorful coffee. The service and view were magical and the Mixology drinks were all 10 of 10! (and we tried at least 5). Service amazing (not pushy). The view on or off terrace offers spectacular views and best of all, meal/drinks underpriced for perfection. read more

La Trattoria was awesome. The service was excellent. The atmosphere was just what we were looking for - romantic, quiet, great views, good service, soft lighting. The waiters were very friendly and were knowledgeable about the wine list. I ordered the Quattro Formaggio (Four cheese fettuccine) which was pretty tasty. It actually did have International cheeses incorporated in the sauce. (I say this because I've ordered other cream pastas in Mexico and they try to substitute in Mexican cheeses which just don't taste good in that context.) My husband ordered the Spaghetti Pomodoro, which he said he liked more than my dish. They brought out a complimentary nacho/red salsa type of sauce with breadsticks and bread. It was a little spicy but very welcomed as we snacked on that while we waited for our meal. We visited on the evening of "El día de las flores" (The day of flowers) festival and sat out on the balcony, which made for very pretty views as the locals were celebrating with flowers everywhere. All in all, it had a great atmosphere, good service and good food. We both ordered a meal, we both had wine and shared a dessert and spent about $65 US dollars. read more

The food is very good. The service took a little while to get going but once it did the food was excellent. I had a glass of merlot actually 2 and the wife had 1 glass of white. 2 bowls of minestrone soup were very good. I had the lasagna which was good but a tiny bit runny and over cooked but still good. Wife has an amazing putanesca. It was so good. Best. olives I've had in a pasta in a while. Prices reasonless too. 65$ out the door. Recommend this place but not easy getting a table as it's right on corner next to the garden in city center. We had a 830 reservation. read more

This is a terrible place, and beware because they keep changing the name of the restaurant in order to avoid bad reviews. Naive me, I gave it another chance. After my friends who were visiting insisted we eat here because of the views, I went to this joint again. To make a horror story short, I was served the most disgusting Lasagnia ever. This is what they did. Because they had no prepared Lasagnia to meet my order, they found some meat sauce in their fridge and mixed in some half boiled lasagna noodles. I was presented with this frightening dish that looked like a small mound of stewed ground meat---no cheese! Before ordering, I had asked the waiter if they had fresh Lasagnia, to which he responded in a polite and convincing manner, "yes". My prior horrible experience in this place was finding a Brillo wire in my chicken, to which the manager responded in a casual non-challant manner with no apologies or suggestion to replace the order. This place is simply a frightening trap riding on its location; it should never be visited despite having a nice view of the Plaza Central. The prices are outrageous considering the mediocre poorly prepared food they serve. read more

Good selection of dishes, nice view. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, they gave us different suggestions on what to do in the afternoon. The second floor has a view to the Theater and jardín de la union. There was live music at the jardín which made it an enjoyable experience. read more

The view was wonderful and the service was great; however, the food was so-so. We had the fried parsley with bacon and the tuna taco. The tuna was cooked well, but the sauce was not heat. Get the sauce on the side! The 4 Seasons pizza was definitely not Italian. The crust was a cross between a tortilla and a pizza crust. I might go back for the view, but not the food. read more

La Trattoria - From our table - Pizza Near Me - Guanajuato, GUA

Great Italian food, attentive service and great views of the Jardín from the balcony tables. It's upstairs from the Hotel San Diego. I had the beef tournedos in Gorgonzola sauce, which were very tender, but not quite as flavorful as a good arrachera. It was far more meat than I was able to eat. My partner had a seafood pasta, which he liked, but I wasn't fond of, as I'm not all that crazy about seafood unless it's super fresh. I've eaten there before and think I had the cannaloni (sp), which had been recommended and was very good. read more

Great location. Nothing else good to say about it. Food was somewhere between ordinary (the seafood entree) and poor (the puttanesca). The place smelt. The service was ordinary. Expensively printed menus that were badly worn - evidence of complete lack of interest in offering seasonal specialties. It's a pity. It's a top location and with a real effort in the kitchen and on service this pace could be great. Until they change ownership and management my advice is to stay away. read more

One of my absolute favorites in Mexico. Nice wine list, the most amazing parsley tacos (not a typo), best tiramisu I have ever eaten, and all of the entrees that I tried were all delicious.
