Tiendita Verde — Restaurant in Michoacán

Tiendita Verde is truly an enjoyable start to your day.  Sit in the garden and take in the lush green surroundings.  A three-tier fountain provides a soothing splash along with the soft jazz played overhead.  Dogs are welcome (please respect others by keeping them leashed and interactions with other dogs to a minimum - one lady let her dog crawl all over ours and even eat the food we laid out for him).

The service staff is kind and friendly being ready to help make you feel welcomed and comfortable.  The reasonably priced menu offers a good array of breakfast options.  Lunch and early dinner are also offered, however, we only came for breakfast.  The first day I had the smoked trout omelet.  It’s a recommendation.  The second day I ask the waiter to bring me breakfast.  Not sure what I had but it was eggs and chicken in a red salsa, very good.  The coffee is tasty.  The orange juice is freshly squeezed and is offered by the glass or in a pitcher.

There is an upstairs seating area, indoor area, and outdoor tables.  The entire place gives you the feeling you are vacationing in a resort.  There is a small room offering many health and beauty products.  Organic food from eggs to papaya is also for sale along with jarred jams and salsas.

If you are a local or touring the area please give this place a try, you won’t regret it.  And, please tell them GoyoGTO recommended...

Went yesterday to celebrate a birthday. Food was universally terrible (though the guacamole was good). Someone had mentioned the hamburger was great...it is NOT! They serve it on a ROCK HARD BAGEL! instead of a bun...this bread cut my lips! And the meat was flavored with something, maybe garlic powder, was not at all beefy. Worst burger I've had in Mexico and that says a lot! Birthday girl's pasta looked like a joke (I studied food in Italy for 30 years)... i didn't taste it but I could see it was terrible. This seems to be a local version of a US-style hippie joint from the 70s, just does not translate, largely because they can't cook! Lovely garden, atmosphere...buy something to go elsewhere and eat it here! don't risk the food! I live around the corner, 3 minute walk, but I WILL NEVER...
