Altar Rooftop — Local services in San Miguel de Allende

Four of us had a lovely dinner there this weekend. The views are lovely and the restaurant had a nice vibe as it was nearly full. We sampled 4 different cocktails and they were all delicious. The English translations were a little off so just trust your waiter’s recommendation. For example, my cocktail was described as “milk punch” but was nothing like what that brings to mind. (It’s the red cocktail in the picture I uploaded). One thing I will note is that the wine pours were quite small on the white wines. I would estimate our friends who were served red wine received 5 ounces but the white pours were around 3 ounces. We were all very happy with our food. I loved my red snapper filet (although they mixed up the sides and brought refried beans instead of rice). Friends shared the lamb shank and thought it was excellent. My wife had the pulpo tostada as an entree and found it to be just ok. Our server Alejandro was outstanding and spoke very good English. We will...

I think this might be the newest restaurant in all of San Miguel. It has the largest rooftop and it's the only one facing the front of the church which is very unique!

We went one of the first days they were open. Food was off the charts!!!

The only thing missing was me having a bigger stomach because we ordered about a third of the menu! Every single item was perfectly served. The chef also owns two other restaurants in town that are five stars. This is definitely the flagship for sure.

The lighting at night, ambiance, music and views of the church were perfect.

Skip all the touristy places put this one on the top of your list. I've been living here for 3 years and the variety and the menu is so big I could see myself eating here 3 days a week.

The prices were medium level so the value for the peso was much better than a lot of the other restaurants in Centro.

Look for the gringo with the pork tomahawk and a margarita sitting in the corner and that's...

Altar, newly opened roof top. Wow what a great surprise! Brand new bar and restaurant above the restaurant & hotel. Super friendly receptionist. Once you enter the lift you won’t believe! Seats available! Once you get there the staff will give the opportunity to choose your table. More formal restaurant setting or the chill areas surrounding by beautiful plants , comfy sofas and massive tables all lit up with candle lights. The atmosphere is incredible. The drinks list expand enough to cater every taste. I highly recommend the Mezcalitas, wow! The staff is very professional and super attentive. Probably The Best roof top in San Miguel so please...
