An incredible experience here at Il Duomo. A thank you to Luca, the owner. Starters were delicious with perfect quantity and quality. Then, the pastas were incredibly tasty and filling. Must try the lasagna or the ragu. Service was excellent and accommodation was outstanding. As for the desert, the tiramisu had a different preparation style than I’m used to. For my taste, the coffee flavor was a bit too strong. Overall, it is a go-to: I strongly recommend going to this restaurant.

We were in the terrace and luckily had no smokers at the time. We were welcomed by a lovely, accommodating young lady. Luis was ever-helpful. Our waiter was completely knowledgeable and always near to fulfill our every wish. The food was spectacular. It was a little bit higher priced than expected.

Mochomos is a Mexican restaurant that focuses on Sonoran cuisine. This is food from a specific region in Mexico that has a specific flavor profile. Sonoran cuisine is specifically known for its high-quality beef and chicken, and the Mochomos kitchen staff takes advantage of this by highlighting the proteins on every dish. Some of the signature items on the Mochomos menu include beef medallions gratin with goat cheese topped with dehydrated tomato, fried spinach and a cherry tomato confit as well as a asparagus wrapped with grilled chicken breast served on a bed of saffron rice.

This was our second visit and once again, the Hacienda Laborcilla was five stars across the board. We brought a friend who had owned one of ATL’s top restaurants years back. She could not get over the beauty of the setting, the food presentations, and attentive service. We will be back next time in Queretero.

It had been over a year since we went to Sonora Grill. There were some surprises, like a new menu without some of our previous favorites (the short rib lasagna....) but overall the same place and environment. The service was excellent, Paola really took good care of us. The food was the same good quality as always. We had the Roca Shrimp (this was our top plate, fantastic presentation and taste), the Brisket for tacos and the girls got the smashed burger. We also had the provolone cheese which was our least favorite (I would not have it again, just not memorable and a little burnt....) Sonora Grill is a no brainer. Really good food, good ambiance and good service. It's nice to have returned. We will not wait another year before we return.
