About the restaurant

De pronto como amantes de la cocina estamos necesitados de encontrar en nuestra ciudad un lugar acogedor, pequeño, de caras conocidas y cálidas. Un ambiente relajado y fresco, que no sea pretencioso, pero sí inspirador.
Tostévere con una propuesta de cocina ecléctica y ambiciosa, ha ido cumpliendo expectativas altas de comensales exigentes. Algo que puede caracterizar al lugar, es la cocina “honesta”, tal cual la describe Antonio, quien realizó el menú. Porciones y precios correctos. Ticket que no destaca por barato pero que con gusto acabas pagando: productos de calidad, cocina trabajada, servicio de excelencia y calidez.

About the restaurant

La terraza en Numu tiene una ubicación ideal para mejorar todavía la experiencia tan apreciada de las terrazas en San Miguel de Allende. Está en Nemesio Diez, a unos pasos del parque Juárez y con excelente perspectiva de casas y torres de iglesias coloniales, especialmente de la Catedral de San Miguel Arcángel. En esta terraza se puede disfrutar sin prisa, de un exquisito menú de desayunos con platos ricos, abundantes e indulgentes, además de opciones saludables. El chiste es despertar sin prisa, comer con calma, y darse el regalo - más raro cada vez - de estar, sin ver el teléfono ni el reloj. Ese es el verdadero lujo, el de tener tiempo para disfrutar, es estar con quien se comparte la terraza.

Luego, por la tarde, es un punto maravilloso para dar la bienvenida al atardecer, que será casi un ritual, por su posición. Será la música que ve caer la tarde, y de ahí, la noche que mantiene este espíritu de no correr, de no tener que demostrar nada, porque simplemente, es.

We had an amazing view at sunset and the service was fantastic. Food was good and steaks came and in very large portions so it’s better to share because if not you’ll have plenty of leftovers.

About the restaurant

Zibu Allende emerges from a fascinating past, from the encounter between Asia and Mexico through the Galleon of Manila, a ship loaded with great treasures such as silks, porcelains, jewels and the precious spices that have enhanced the cuisine of Mexico and the world . Zibu Allende rescues this story and takes it one step further by creating a new gastronomic concept: the Mex-Tai cuisine, which fuses Thai cuisine with Mexican haute cuisine to produce a unique menu and this remember and pay tribute to those who contributed to this exchange of flavors. Today you can delight yourself with irresistible delicacies that mix the spicy, the acid, the sweet and the salty, gastronomic sensations that you will love to feel and taste.

Very beautiful setting. Valet parking was a plus. Menu was reduced somewhat due to date, Christmas Eve… that was somewhat disappointing. Service was very attentive.
