This has been one of our favorite special occasion San Cristóbal restaurants for years. It's a bit of a splurge but well worth it for the ambience and food quality/choices. Unfortunately, at this time of Covid, it closes at 5:00 pm so we were limited to lunch, rather than a romantic dinner next to the fireplace. One can choose to sit indoors in the lovely and bright dining areas or at a table in the beautiful plant-filled patio.
The margaritas are truly huge and delicious. The puntas de filete suizas with a mushroom cream sauce and potato pancake are a perennial favorite, as is the filete with blue cheese sauce. There are also Mexican/Chiapas choices, but the Swiss choices make a nice break. Rich desserts provide a really yummy end to a fine meal. We usually take out what we can't finish to enjoy later at night
It was such a relief to be greeted by the same attentive and kind waiter who has always been there. The only element missing is Chip Morris, eating and reading at his favorite corner table. RIP, Chip.
