Pleasantly surprised at this luxurious rooftop-restaurant located on top of Casa Blanca hotel.
My boyfriend and I were looking for a rooftop to relax and enjoy a drink during the sunset, and ended up here without any expectations.
As soon as we arrived the hostess kindly welcomed us, verified availability at the restaurant, and gave us the directions.
When we arrived at the rooftop the waiter gave us the option to sit in the less desirable table (still beautiful though), mentioning that all the other tables were already reserved.
We ordered a craft beer, which was ice cold and delicious, and a perfectly mixed virgin grapefruit tonic, with just the right amount of ice.
As an appetizer, we ordered the hummus with beef, which was soft, creamy and full of flavor.
The house bread, and the olive spread are finger licking.
The ambiance is exotic, romantic, and elegant. Perfect place to treat yourself.
We have three more weeks in San Miguel de Allende and will make sure to come back and have a...
Read moreThis place was incredible! Highly highly recommend! Beautiful ascetic, lovely vistas of the nearby cathedral, and delicious food. The complimentary tapinade was a really great balance of salty and sweet. The tamal was unlike any other that my wife and I had tried. It had a lovely crispy texture and complex flavors throughout. The tuna tartar was amazing as well, again bringing together disparate flavors into a wonderful blend. The sweet potato dip was great also, perhaps a tad sweet but the garlic counterbalance was a great foil for the dish. Lastly and most delicious of all was the beef short rib which was pretty damn incredible. We loved it. Again like all of the dishes we tried, it had a way of perfectly using counteracting flavors to build something whose sum was greater than its parts. Highly recommend. Stop reading reviews and...
Read moreThe terrace is very nice. Tables are well spaced and there are multiple heaters around should it be cool. Lovely views.
The service was very good without being clingy. The staff was attentive and very helpful.
The food.....that was an amazing meal. We started by sharing the Calamari, which was unique. With the calamari were tender pieces of very baby potatoes. Never had that before but it was a dish that we both enjoyed.
We also split the eggplant. Wow! It was a whole baby eggplant, peeled, cooked to perfection in some sauce that was divine. Covered with thinly sliced figs and served with a side of blue cheese sauce to pour on or dip in.
We decided to then share the duck. Again, perfect in every way. Tasty, tender, and a perfect dish to finish off the experience.
Next visit, and there will be another before we leave, we'll...
