My 10 year old daughter was getting tired of the local food and wanted something "American-ish", she just wanted food options that she was familiar with! This little hidden gem is like a 5 minutes walk from El Jardín de la Union. Find the stairs and start climbing! Believe me! It's worth it! The stairs take you to a doorway and surprise! More stairs! But by now you can SMELL the food, so these next few stairs there is a little pep in your step as you get closer to the next floor level! There is a wonderful selection of food you can't go wrong! I ordered the Fettuccine Alfredo and it was delicious! Creamy, well made Alfredo! Nothing against the Latin influenced fettuccine Alfredo, you know...the kind with sliced ham, ground beef or tomatoes in it (i hate those types of surprises in my fettuccine alfredo but have come to expect that even if it isn't in the food description on the menu). Traditional Italian food is what you are gonna find here! My daughter Little-Miss-Picky-Eater was equally pleased with her Penne Burro pasta plate! penne pasta tossed with melted butter. She loved it! The portions are perfect! Definitely worth your dollar and on top of that...the VIEW is phenomenal! If you are ever in Guanajuato and are craving authentic Italian food...this is the place you need to go. The food quality, customer service, ambiance and view CANNOT be beat!

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!

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.

If you're in town, this place is worth checking out if just for the ambiance and excellent margaritas. Pros: Great feeling and decor. Really a place that feels spacious, up-scale and hip Jazz on weekends Service was good Food presentation was visually very nice Cocktails were great (I had a Margarita) Cons: Menu sounded good but execution was clumsy for our taste. It was disappointing because they obviously used high-quality ingredients. For example in the Pasta with cream sauce and salmon, there was too much of a sour note (citrus or vinegar, I assume) which made the combination of flavors just not work. I've had seafood / curry-based pastas that were excellent and balanced, but this wasn't one of them. Similarly, the Arranchera was good but the combination of flavors wasn't balanced (not enough salt and bitter, too much sour). Bottom line is that there is a lot to like about this place, but if the food isn't 5-star then the restaurant can't be 5-star in my book. But I can tell the owners have put a lot of money into making this place look and feel fantastic, with good staff and high-quality ingredients. But sadly I'd say the execution of the dishes was not on-par tonight.
