Located in the quaint town of Malinalco, site of an Aztec pyramid. I would rate this restaurant as a 5 star for its food, service and atmosphere. The open kitchen concept and relaxed atmosphere add to the culinary experience!
2. Los Placeres
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 286 reviews
Situated in the main plaza with a magnificent view of the archeological site this is a relaxed easy going (dogs welcomed, kids menu) restaurant. The menu celebrates Mexican flavors with international flair e.g Nopales (edible cacti) with hibiscus fand zuccini flower. Don't miss the seasonal "chiles en nogada". Decor persues to preserve it's old house setting creatively. Great music, attentive service. Los Placeres also has a gallery with art Exhibitions.Opened from thursday to sunday. We offer catering service for weddings and special events.

We were visiting Malinalco for the day, and after the stroll up the hill to the pyramid, we were ready for some lunch. Not having looked at the options beforehand, we made a quick choice and went to Los Placeres. The atmosphere is very nice,...MoreThank you for your review!!! hope to see you back soon!

The restaurant was absolutely lovely. It's owned by an American woman, and her Mexican-American son, and they've done a fantastic job of decorating, hiring a great chef, and hiring greater waiters. They accommodated children very nicely. Excellent.

A little place that is great for getting your coffee fix, basically! The service was very friendly, and the coffee was pretty good. The restaurant also looked lovely, and while we thought about going back in for lunch, we ended up somewhere else. Would definitely recommend it though!

Reviewed By Jack F - Santa Clara, California
This is a small and nice coffee shop. The decoration of the place is amazing. They have several extraction methods, like chemex, french press, drip, expresso, etc. The quality of the coffee is amazing, and you need to order a carajillo (cocktail with coffee.)
It's attended by the owner, who is super friendly!
7. Hotel - Restaurante Casa Limon

I'm not sure why the restaurant at Casa Limon has not received more attention. The food here is quite good and it has a pleasant atmosphere. There is no written menu, but the waiter very patiently recited the options several times. He was also quite knowledgeable on how each dish was prepared. We have been in Malinalco for several months and we've become quite dismayed with the rampant use of Knorr Suiza and Jugo Maggi (aka MSG) in every restaurant in town. Thus, we were quite pleased that the waiter was able to recommend several appetizers and main dishes that were MSG-free. We had the goat cheese salad, seabass and duck confit. All were very good. The dessert souffle was a little underdone. Overall the prices are a bit high (appetizer, entrée, and dessert for two was $70) but it is definitely worth a visit. It is a bit outside the center of town so you might want to take a taxi.

la verdad muy recomendable el lugar, instalaciones muy sencillas, pero el chef es muy bueno, no deben perderse la pasta a la bolognesa, y mucho menos los mejillones al vino blanco, son deliciosos.
