Sit outside and enjoy the many menu items, from tableside salsa to tacos to octopus.Three of us shared an appetizer and two entrees, then a dessert. They have many beers and tequilas as well. Good service and good food with a great view if the Saddle Mountain.

Probably the best steakhouse in Monterrey but thereâs other great things on the menu : chicken, scallops, interesting salads and probably the most expensive tacos as well: Tenderloin with one marrow. The price tag wonât be cheap but itâs the kind of restaurant thatâs worth for the quality you get. Not an everyday place but once you go for the first time, you will crave for it.

First branch of the oldest Restaurant Bar in Monterrey. Since 1920, Indio Azteca is the most traditional Cantina in this city, with excellent Mexican food and a relaxed atmosphere.

As a restaurant that has been around for almost 100 years, this new location somehow feels like the original and that is attractive for people who is familiar with it. Food is great and you can find many options in the menu to indulge your Mexican food carving. Service was OK and price is reasonable. The only issue for me is the parking and the limited ways to get there if you're driving.

Many of our suppliers are from outside of Mexico, and we have found that the service, food, drinks and deserts are excellent choices for someone who wishes to know more about Mexican dishes.The noise level is quite adequate, which allows you to have a good conversation without having to raise your voice or have a hard time hearing. Early dinner is of preference, for there is less of a crowd and you can have more time to enjoy. Make sure you tell your waiter the speed you want your dishes served, some times it makes sense to have time to talk and enjoy the food.I am sure you will not be disappointed.

I was in Monterrey for one week and visited twice, once for breakfast, and then for lunch on Sunday. Everything is homemade and especially tasty. I highly recommend a visit for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The icing on the cake for those who don't speak Spanish is the owner, Juan Pablo, is fluent in English.Thanks for your kind comments. We strive each day to create a memorable experience for all of our visitors. We hope to see you again soon.

A rare find, find out what local yuppies have been enjoying for generations, very simple food, exquisite steakhouse style meat cuts, lots of pork. A diamond in the dessert. La Nacional team usually rescues recipies from small towns and delivers them to yo

Excelent food!!! I simple love the truffled French fries they serve there. Also the meat is really good! But if you do not want to wait hours and hours to be seated in a dinner, does not matter which day of the week, do your reservations previously

Eating in Los Nogales is testing Monterrey, our classic grill and typical regional dishes that dominate our cuisine, from a tortilla soup, a run of dry meat, a cut of meat of great quality and in desserts, nothing like our corn bread. We are the best Stea

If you want a taste of Monterrey's "carne asada", then Los Nogales is for you. The food is very good, the service is excellent, lots of different beers and really nice deserts. They have TV screens, so if there is a football game on the air, you will be able to watch it.
