Anytime I strike up a conversation with someone in Austin about San Miguel I inevitably become their personal travel agent; providing them with the must sees, best restaurants, and all the things one must do while visiting San Miguel. And I love every minute of it! I thought I'd pass along some of things that make San Miguel so utterly fabulous to me - starting with the restaurants! This list is ever expanding and this is just the tip of the iceberg. (For a more detailed list of all things San Miguel check out the Insider's Guide)One of my favorite restaurants in SMA is Romano's. It is a quaint place that has some of the best Tomato Soup in the world. Don't take my word for it - try it yourself. Check out the Frommer's review from the NY Times.
Hecho En Mexico is a great place for lunch. Its menu offers a variety of foods that you'll recognize including some really juicy quesadillas and a to-die-for brownie. Convieniently located on Ancha de San Antonio close to the Instituo Allende and across from Domino's Pizza.
For authentic Mexican cuisine visit Rincon de Don Tomas. It is right on the square in the jardin. Enjoy your meal on the patio right on the main plaza.
The only place I must eat at when I'm in San Miguel is a tiny restaurant called Tres Burritos. It is excruciatingly warm in there and you'll be packed in with many other burrito lovers but it is well worth it. Located on Mesones Street between Hidalgo and Relox. Lunch hours only!
There are definitely plenty of great places to eat in San Miguel and I'll share more of those in a future post.
