You've read about this one in every food list, maybe seen it on a few Netflix specials -- this place is THE seafood joint of the city. Book a table for lunch and enjoy the freshest spread of lime drenched seafood. Even if you just have time for espresso and dessert -- it is a worthy visit.

Deep cut restaurant favorite. Located in a (stunning) house designed by famed architect Luis Barragon, this restaurant is a local food experience with the most bang for your buck. Try the tamarind mezcal cocktail and the chapulines (grasshopper) quesadillas.

The whole town is a World Heritage Site -- it is well kept, super charming, and a really interesting culmination of old-world and new world scenes. Beautiful vineyards, shops, churches, mineral-spring spas and of course, food.
