Came here after Reading all the good review about this place. But maybe just personal preference, we found it just ok. Nothing special. The cocktails were good, appetizers were ok. But really nothing special about the main. The cod was super expensive compared to the rest of the main. It was a special and was not on the menu. We were surprised when we got the bill! If it were good, I don’t mind paying for it. Or maybe fish is just more expensive in Guadalajara.

This is definitely one of my favorite restaurants in all Mexico. With an asian / mexican fusion cuisine, the mix of flavors you have as a result is marvelous and unique. They also have a great selection of house made cocktails, being my favorites the ones based in Mezcal (try the “Pega Duro” : ist just memorable! Also, if you sit at the bar, ask for Alejandra: she is very nice and can recommend a very good meal and a great mezcal to go with it. She is eager to help and always with a warmth smile. I look forward in coming back real soon!

5. La Tequila
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1 reviews
Known for their huge selection of Tequila, and the food is excellent as well. A particular standout is the Chile en Nogada, made with 37 different ingredients. ¡Great for business and family!
Reviewed By EMILE D - Guatemala City, Guatemala
The restaurant has been in Guadalajara for several years, in fact you will find several La Tequila restaurants in other areas. The decoration is nice and pleasant. The restaurant has a family and friends atmosphere. The service was relatively good, as there were too many customers and it was a little difficult for the waiter to attend my table. The quality of the food was not so good. I could say that it did not impress me. Good prices.

The food as usually was amazing and the staff wonderful. On top of that, when we asked them to call a cab and none were available as there was "something" going on, a gentleman offered to drive us back to the Posada and we had a great conversation with him in regard to his schooling etc. as he plans to be a lawyer. What a great end to wonderful night!

While in Plaquepaque, be sure to explore this area and take in this restaurant. Seven of us are here and found the food outstanding!
The service was also excellent! No pretentious airs just down to earth people giving great service. I was happy that they spoke Spanish to us and that we were able to try to converse back.
All meals are served with salsa as well as some spicy sauce - there was bread and fajita shells...all making for a yummy pre meal appetizer.
We ordered guacamole and fried cheese as appetizers. Our mains consisted of Tequila shrimp, coconut shrimp and chicken in a shell with Mole sauce. Everything was excellent- the portion size was large and the flavours sensational.
We had margaritas and wine to drink...also very good and affordable.
8. Kamilos 333
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 261 reviews
Kamilos 333 is well known for its quality and great service since 1975, it’s located in the renowned “Barrio de Sta. Teresita”. The ambiance and decoration that consists mainly of vintage field tools evokes the antique rural Jalisco. Their signature dish is the budget friendly “Karne en su jugo” which is a 100% local dish. For what we mentioned above and for its family oriented and traditional nature, it is in the top ten essential restaurants to be visited in Guadalajara. We hope to see you soon!

Very grateful that a waiter at another restaurant recommended this place to us. The specialty is Carne en es Jugo (meat cooked for a long time in it's own juices, kind of like pulled pork, except it's beef). This is a wonderful dish and one you must try while in Guadalajara. Kamilos333 and the place right next door are famous for this dish. However Kamilos333 has way more atmosphere and doesn't look or feel like a "take out". (The place next door has won the Guinness Book of World Records for the Fastest Food Delivery, but we were not in a rush). The service at Kamilos was wonderful and we had a great conversation in English with the owner. This is a very casual family sort of place. Unique Mexican furnishings too. There is a Sorbet place across the street, which we heard wonderful things about, but they were closed when we got out.

After checking out Tripadviser we went here for dinner
What disappointment....it’s in a hotel and the atmosphere was just above a cafeteria. The menu was very limited with only 5 pasta choices,the other part of the menu was boring with no description at all just salmon, tuna etc...no sauces or sides mentioned
The food was just ok , not nearly as good as some other restaurants that are on Calle Indepencia.
Go to El Patio , la Luna or Casa Fuerte instead
Our waitress was wonderful but it’s not her fault

This place is a jewel to the Jalisco food heritage, and with it, to the whole of Mexico. The place is crowded most of the time, and you might sometimes have to share tables, which might be awkward to some people.
The food however, is amazing. From tacos to tamales, passing through gorditas, sopes, enchiladas, chilaquiles, aguas frescas, and maybe a few beers.
The star dish is undisputedly, pozole. The ambience is marvelous. Incomparable. Conversation, laughter and fun. If you really want to, you can enjoy this place and take it with you in your memories. The service could be better, but not even that can make the place a bad one.
