Karne Garibaldi is a large restaurant specializing in a delicious regional dish called "carne en su jugo" (beef in its broth) which consists of strips of beef served in a rich broth with some beans and bacon. It's like a hearty soup. Of course, it is served with fresh, hot tortillas, and you can order your choice of several sides, such as guacamole and chips, grilled green onions, quesadillas, queso fundido (with or without chorizo), etc. They are in the Guinness Book of World Records for the fastest service. ...and I believe it!
They offer a variety of drinks from sodas, aguas frescas and beer. I got my usual limonada in agua mineral. Everything was delicious and the service was exceptional.
Karne Garibaldi has several locations. This one is by Plaza Del Sol in...

Read moreThis is a staple of Guadalajara. So if you are ever around the area or are visiting, you need to come try some authentic carne en su jugo. It's cheap and food is great.

Just order the most burnt on top one. Service is great. Only downside is that when its full you do have to wait 15 to 20 mins for a table, specially if it's a big group. But come hungry and with a good attitude and you'll enjoy it! Side note, if you are a vegan, this is NOT the place for you! So don't even come and bother everyone...
