Infusion del Golfo — Restaurant in Sonora

Man, what a great dinner we had at Infusion! Somehow on a Thursday we were the only people in the restaurant. Holy cow, Batman, did the rest of you make a poor decision!

Because we were the only ones initial service was a bit too eager, but then Christian settled in to only show when needed. All three of us had pre-dinner drinks followed by appetizers. Mine was pressed watermelon with lemon and tequila and was tasty if a bit weak. My wife had a smokey mezcal with citrus that was done perfectly. Scallop ceviche presentation was beautiful and the seafood fresh as you can imagine. Duck burritos sounded like a bad choice initially, but was I ever wrong! They were bursting with flavor, a delightful surprise. My wife's grilled apple salad was reportedly the best.

Dinner was grouper over some fantastic risotto for me, a ribeye with the gorgonzola sauce from the filet for my son and the love of my life had some beautiful shrimp that were prepared in such detail as to remove even the bottom shell near the tail while leaving the tail itself. Photos of all are attached. Everyone was overwhelmed with how good the food was to the point that nary a morsel remained. Somehow there was still room for dessert and the three of us shared two, the creme brulee and a lava cake. They were also good, but being a fan more of savory than sweet they don't get the same superlatives from me.

Did I mention that we were the only ones there? A full staff was ready and available with the chef in full view during preparation. You really, really should go make a...

We enjoyed a lovely dinner here. The prices are high for Mexico, but equal to what you might pay in the U.S. We were surprised there was no salad included, or bread before the meal. We did order an appetizer, which was delicious (the glazed carrots) but the portion is very small. Without salad or bread it makes waiting for your meal very long. The chef did send out some complimentary shrimp croquettes, which were tasty, and appreciated. Our food came out and it was beautifully presented. Albeit a bit spare. We all enjoyed our dinners. I had the garlic shrimp that in no way tasted like garlic but was still good. Served with 4 small pieces of vegetables. My husband and our friend enjoyed the filet mignon, cooked to perfection served with mashed potatoes and some veggies, also had gorgonzola cheese over the steak. Our other friend had the a la talla fish dish, looked beautiful. He did find 2 small bones, but really enjoyed it. I ordered a creme brule for dessert and it was delicious. The menu said vanilla ginger, I did not taste ginger, but it has some fresh blackberry on it and that was good. The service was excellent, very attentive. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with...

Excellent menu selections. My wife and I ate dinner with beers for about 50 USD for the two of us, menu prices are listed in Mexico Pesos, exchange rate at the time I was here was about 1 USD to 18 pesos, plus whatever fee your bank may apply if using a Visa credit card. Tips are cash only, USD accepted. Very friendly employees, who let me practice my Spanish, and were very encouraging. The meal was beyond my expectations! A surprise little appetizer was a small piece of grouper on top of a very smooth white sauce topped with colorful bell peppers. The coconut shrimp were COLLOSAL, just right amount of coating which was very crisp. The pork chop was very tender with a nice gravy. Savory small buns, possibly with sage, and rich butter. Beautiful...
