 | Cuernavaca Restaurants | Tips 1 - 10 of 17 |  |
Popular Restaurants | Other Restaurants Tips | All Tips (17) One of Mexico's most famous restaurants is here in Cuernavaca. The garden terraces are indeed glorious with pools and fountains. You can also stay here - but prices are very high starting at well over $100 a night. Dinner is not cheap either. The menu of the day was 410 pesos, though you can spend less - and eat less - with the ala carte menu. Credit cards are accepted.
The setting alone is worth eating here if you have the company to go with the extravangandic surroundings.

Mole with anything

Quinta Las Mananitas, Cuernavaca
This is a real blow-out treat and one of the few saving graces of the city of Cuernavaca.
AS you enter the doors of the restaurant, you know you are in for something special. Small, wood-panelled bar leads you past regency furnished waiting area and out to the manicured gardens - tinkling fountains, luxuriant lawns, peacocks, discretely lit palms. A large, comfortable bar is to the left, semi-covered, candles on every table, incredibly attentive service (a waiter for every task - from taking your order for drinks - they do great margaritas - through to their delivery, emptying ashtrays, bringing over nibbles, showing you the menu - on a blackboard - to taking your order. You can sit in the bar until your first course is ready and you will be shown to your table from there. (If you are there in the evening look out for the peacocks roosting above your head in the trees).
The food and everything attached to the art of dining is wonderous. It is deservedy regarded as one of the best restaurants in Mexico.
Not surprisingly, you pay through the nose for the experience - but considering that it IS one of the best restaurants, the bill at approx 80 pounds sterling for 2 courses, bottle of Italian wine (wine in Mexico is not cheap) a couple of Margaritas each and coffee was not extortionate. And it is worth it for the whole experience - for the first time in Cuernavaca city we had a sense of space (helped by the fact that it we the night of a full moon).
The restaurant is part of a VERY upmarket hotel and we decided to have a nose round after the meal. Very helpful member of staff came across us looking through the (locked) gate into the hotel swimming pool and took us through. The piece-de-resistance was the small garden pool at the bottom of the gardens with the pet pink flamingoes!! If you haven't had the opportunity in Yucatan (or Lake Victoria in Africa), then you can geet very very close to these strange but beautiful creatures.
Overall a complete delight.

There is one thing you will not forget about the Trattoria Marco Polo and it's the lovely terrace facing the cathedral and its gardens. A truly charming place to have dinner in a great atmosphere.
The Marco Polo is an Italian restaurant that serves tasty dishes and large portions. The place is quite popular with tourists and Mexicans alike. Not really upscale but definitely enjoyable.

You can get all dressed up here or casual and you'll still fit in and be welcome. There are candles on the tables and all along the walkways which makes it a really romantic experience. We like getting dressed up at least once while on vacation (the rest of the time we look like a couple of backpacker hooligans...) Leave a Comment

This place has a great location across from the Cortez palace, beside the zocalo, and is attractively decorated. Outdoor terrace has great potential. On two visits the staff was unfriendly and unprofessional. Margaritas were sour, unpleasant and small. Mango soup was well chilled and attractive but little flavour as it tasted diluted with water. Shrimp tacos were absolutely inedible as shrimp were so overcooked they were like stones. I said nothing, just asked for bill, waiter noticed the uneaten tacos and started arguing with me that they had been well prepared. There are many other restaurants in Cuernavaca where one can get much better food from much more pleasant waiters. The term "tourist trap" came to mind. On the lower level, off Hidalgo, there is a gift shop with lovely jewellery, staffed by a charming young woman.

Great food -- huge mosquitos! I made the mistake of wanting to go here in the evening for my birthday. The mosquitos were terrible. The food was good, the service good, but Cafe Hidalgo would be my favorite. Everyone told me about the beautiful gardens. Later they told me "only go in the afternoon for a Mexican Supper about 3 PM" Leave a Comment Theme: Eclectic/InternationalPrice: US$31-40 » Currency ConverterComparison: more expensive than averageAddress: Ricardo Linares 107Directions: A quick walk North from the Gardens

Excellent, but very pricy, even by US standards... This is the place to go if youre looking for a nice thick US style steak, great seafood, or a classic mexican dish updated by a high end hotel chef....
The restaurant is located down an unassuming side street off the center... many buildings are fronted by a plain concrete wall... which in this case belies the oasis like scene inside... a rich wood fixture bar welcomes you to the main dining area and courtyard, where peacocks roam the verdandt lawn by the fountain... bring your camera for sure.... its open air dining... plus, a plush lounge area is a perfect waiting place if you need to wait for your table...
By the way, its also one of cuernavacas classiest hotels....
I had the mexican combination... my girlfriend had paella... friends ordered steaks... we had drinks and appetizers, and everything was phenomenal....
