Panoli — Restaurant in Michoacán

We came here a lot during our 6 weeks in Morelia because it offers a range of options which is good for large tables, fast service, clean bathrooms, and views of the main plaza. You can also get a quieter table out the back away from the street as well. We never got sick eating the food (a huge bonus as a foreigner travelling in Mexico) and they are always happy to make alterations to the menu (which is great for families). For example asking for no cheese or cream etc. My only disappointment was often it seemed like the salad components had not been cut fresh, but rather they might have been already precut in the morning, so sometimes the tomatoes etc looked limp while other times it looked more fresh on the plate. Other than that fairly good all rounder restaurant that is...

I have to say that Panoli is an Awesome place to eat. The best part is the food. Everything seems delicious but from my experience I got two types of salads. The Mexican salad surprised me with the amount of chicken on the plate, the cheese and pineapple, the nopal was good. The second salad was also great with stripes of carrots, chicken and honey. Everything was delicious I also tried a frappe flavored taro and another matcha. I still find it difficult to know whichever is best because they were so good. The service was kind of good bit sometimes got crowded. Overall is a great place to have a nice meal,...

Nunca había sido tratado de una manera así en un restaurante.

Entre la llegada de un mesero atolondrado y distraído (de esos que parece que piden perdón con la mirada), un bagel mal hecho y escurriendo mantequilla (acompañado con "ensalada de fruta", que consistía en ~75gr. de melón "fresco" puestos directamente en un plato caliente) y unas enchiladas suizas calentadas en microondas, el área de restaurante deja muchísimo que desear. Al final del almuerzo el mesero se libera de su letargo y -con mucho nervio- me dice "la propina no viene incluida en la cuenta". Háganme el favor.

Hemos venido antes con ropa formal y un atuendo más serio y el trato fue completamente distinto. Un mesero servicial y atento, hasta simpático; un pan dulce de cortesía y la jarra de café se nos ofrecía cada cinco minutos. Los caldos, como de abuelita. Las bebidas, en la mesa antes de que uno acabe se pedirlas. Se nota la preferencia de los meseros por comensales bien vestidos, como si eso fuera augurio de la preciada propina.

La panadería y charcutería es un tema completamente distinto. Los empleados conocen su producto y explican con mucho gusto. Hay una variedad amplísima y finísima de alcoholes, dulces, productos de importación (como alcaparras, quesos, pastas...), panes, bebidas y repostería. Si se pudieran calificar por separado, a este aspecto le daría cinco estrellas.

Espero haber...
