Had a good time at this higher end restaurant in a vibey spot in Guadalajara. Some dishes were good, others were really good and the cocktails were consistently great. Unfortunately the overall meal didn't blow me away and I don't think it was worth the hype it received. If I did come back the steak was my favorite dish cooked to perfection (if you like rare steaks). The pork belly in both its entree preparation and its appetizer preparation was really quite good. The scallops were my favorite starter by far and are a must get! Unfortunately many of the other dishes were just good enough like the tétela, octopus, and duck. The special tortellini was downright bad. Any cocktail on the list we tried was stunning, my favorite being the taxi driver. If you're looking to go on a fancier date you can choose this spot, but if you want really good Mexican food you don't really need to come here read more

"Favorite restaurant in Guadalajara," exclaimed one of our friends about Tikuun. With that endorsement, we went and left disappointed. Here's our experience after dining here on a Monday evening in August around 8 p.m.: 1) Food: The menu skews seafood, but it has a few vegetarian and beef dishes. We ordered the artichoke dish, babaganoush, salad, and beef dishes. The salad and the beef dishes were wins! However, the babaganoush lacked flavor and definitely was NOT proper babaganoush. And the artichoke dish was just okay. 2) Drinks: They have water, soda, beer, and lots of wine in bottles and a few options for glasses. 3) Service: It was pretty bad. They forgot several items on our order, took a long time to bring our food out despite it being almost empty when we ordered, and lacked attention. 4) Space: With one dining room and outdoor balcony/patio seating, it's well decorated and inviting. They also play a relaxing play list! read more

Came here for a pre wedding celebration with a big family group. We were excited to hear about this place. I ordered a steak and unfortunately, it was just way too raw when I ordered medium, way too much fat and cartilage and I was only able to eat half of it. The ambiance is great though and the rest of the items that we ordered were alright which a few of them exceptional. I would try this place out again but I would order something else just in case it was a fluke of a day. read more

What a neighborhood gem. The ambiance from when we walked in to the welcoming staff. Tiki UN had the most delicious and savory food. The duck was moist and cooked perfectly. The shrimp with the corn absolutely divine. I will definitely return on my next visit to Guadalajara. If you're in the mood to step back in time but at the same time eat contemporary sustainable food eat at this restaurant read more

Tikuun - Mexican Near Me - Guadalajara, JAL

We love this place and can't wait to come back. From the sweet service to the oh, so delicious food, we can say enough positive things about it. We had a bottle of French rosé and the tuna tartare to begin, and it was the best dish of its kind we've ever had. We then shared the fish of the day and the Thai mole pulpo (octopus) and things got even better. The seafood was extremely fresh and the flavors were interesting, creative and decadent. We had to finish with a dish of chocolate ice cream which was, of course, sinfully delicious. So glad we found this spot. We'll be back again and again. read more

Delicious! The best was the chocolate mousse dessert! We also enjoyed the mole, lamb, and steak. The service was good, but it definitely took a long time to bring out the food. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. read more

Lovely people and sincerely interested in offering very good food. Ambiance is local and casual. Not really a place to travel far, but a great neighborhood spot when you are close by. read more

Fantastic! Great ambience (we were fortunate to get sat on the little patio.) First courses were large and amazing, we had a special of flautas, and the stone crab on the menu was one of the best executed dishes of my life. Mains were also substantial and expertly prepared. Pricing was extremely reasonable. Service was perfect. I could not ask for a better experience! read more

Very delicious and great service- started with copas of french white and a rose wine. Then a fresh tomatoes appetizer with a vinaigrette and olives- perfection! We had the ribs and beef roll entrees. Very yummy - everything! All very elevated flavors and presentation. You can get the degustacion size- 100 g. And save room for dessert- chocolate brownie and cappuccino- good value too! read more

We invited my parent to have this one-of-a-kind experience with us. We tried 8 different dishes, including all the main dishes. Each one was beautiful and tasty! All with well balanced flavors! Some new to my parents! Like the tamarindo mole. Hard to pick the best ones. The Oaxacan mole, the flautas, the octopus, and the dark chocolate tart will be missed! Enjoy! read more

Tikuun - This place is a gem! - Mexican Near Me - Guadalajara, JAL

Tikuun doesn't live up to the hype. The issues start with their booking approach--the entire restaurant filled at exactly 7PM (first seating time). There was only one server. As hard as she worked, it just took a long time to get an order placed and then food served from the overwhelmed kitchen. We ordered 5 apps including two specials, all of which were served at the same time despite a request to course them out. The pork belly atop a sopa was a little dry and tough. The duck confit quesadilla was excellent with a delicious mole sauce. The pulpo y queso special was ill-conceived, with the cheese overpowering the octopus--but the accompanying fresh tortillas were excellent. The tuna tiradito was fresh but the sauce didn't have enough acid and the crispy string toppings, while providing textural contrast, were disproportionate. The pesce Aguachile special was fresh with complimentary herbs. The standout was the Birria entree which was fork-spreadable in a rich broth. Not being conversant with Mexican wines we accepted the server's excellent wine recommendations. Overall it was a good, but not exceptional dinner. read more

Simple, adventurous food in an upscale but blessedly unfussy restaurant. I stopped here after a long day of walking around the city, planning to have a quick snack and a drink. The menu promised so much more and I ended up staying a few hours. I tried the octopus and shrimp ceviche. It was dressed with squid ink, tiny tomatoes and paper thin slices of tomatillo. Tostadas were served on the side. It was delicious and the presentation was perfect. I also tried the flautas con conjejo. I wasn't into the idea of eating rabbit but my server, Alma, assured me it was really good. She was right. It was crazy good. The flautas rested in a pool of tomatillo mole and crema, with dehydrated tomatoes, little circles of cabbage, some crumbly, aged farmer cheese and some delicate greens on top. The perfect thing to eat along with a beer (try the Colimita). I also ended up getting dessert as well--a deconstructed brownie thing with choco-peanut praline and guava ice cream and mandarin gel and and and... It was rich but light, a perfect balance of flavors and textures. Honestly the experience was so memorable I didn't need a single photograph to recall every detail. It was a pleasure to write this review. Plus, the service staff was A+. Very attentive and genuine, and I was grateful for their patience with my broken Spanish. If this place was in my hometown there would be a long line of people clamoring to get in each and every night! Do visit Tikuun in Guadalajara--it will not disappoint. read more

This is a lovely little restaurant with delicious food and excellent service. I especially liked the option to order a smaller portion of the entree. That meant I had room for dessert! My husband and I liked everything we ordered--we had dinner at Lula Bistro three nights before and preferred Tikuun in every way! Highly recommended. read more
