Five for the service and atmosphere, 3.75 for the food. The room is beautiful and the murals make a lovely backdrop for the meal. Be aware that the prices are high for the locale. There is an English menu available online but not in the restaurant. Here's where I get confused. The service is excellent, full white tablecloth treatment, old-school European style. No detail is missed. Then we get to the food. It's really pretty good, all told. Here's where the attention to details goes sideways. The bread rolls felt as if they had been sitting since yesterday. The beans, although delicious, had sat around on the plate long enough to be room temperature and develop a crust. The totopos stuck in the beans were in the beans long enough to get soggy. The rice served alongside the moles was barely above room temperature and a bit dried out. All the food, in general, needed to arrive from the kitchen much warmer. Essentially, anything that could be made ahead of time was, and then left sitting out. It doesn't fit and I don't get it. read more

This restaurant was by far my favorite in Puebla, and the Enchiladas Tres Moles completely stole the show. Each mole had its own distinct character--mole poblano with its deep, rich, and slightly sweet notes from the chocolate and dried chiles, pipian verde bringing a fresh, nutty complexity with the pumpkin seeds, and pipian rojo offering a bold, peanut-infused depth. Every bite was a journey through the region's culinary traditions, and the balance of flavors was nothing short of exceptional. I also tried the chalupas poblanas--something I had been wanting to experience. While they were flavorful, with their crisp-yet-soft tortillas and salsa-coated goodness, they didn't quite reach the level of the enchiladas. Next time, I'd go all in on those enchiladas again. Beyond the food, the restaurant itself is stunning--elegant, cultured, and beautifully decorated, making the entire dining experience feel special. A must-visit in Puebla. By the way, service was top tier, and I have to come back when the chiles en nogada are in season. read more

Mi esposo y yo visitamos el Mural de Los Poblanos durante nuestro viaje a Puebla. Nos encantó tanto que regresamos a celebrar mi cumpleaños (el 5 de Mayo). El mole siempre ha sido uno de mis platillos favoritos y el mole Poblano de aquí fue de lo mejor que hemos comido. Compramos para llevar a casa y poder compartir un poco con nuestra familia. El servicio fue estupendo y muy agradable. Esperamos volver pronto! read more

We really liked the open air dining room with interesting murals on the walls. We shared a chicken broth soup that we both thought was Terrific. We also got tacos arepas with lamb. The lamb was somewhat dry, but it was a very generous portion. The salsa and sauces were all good. Service was awkward at times, such as when we first sat down and didn't realize we were talking to their wine sommelier and we tried to order a beer he didn't respond, but just stared at us. read more

The restaurant had a nice vibe. The food was fine, I tried the enchiladas with 3 different mole. It was great to try different tastes as I had not had mole often. This wine was ok but very expensive and small pours. The staff let us taste to see if we liked before committing. This was for wine by the glass. read more

We were a large group so service was a bit slow. But to be expected especially when some translation was needed. They also had a short supply of English Menus. My Mojito was delicious. My Salad was all very big and filling. I'd wished I hadn't ordered an entire. My entree was fish. I asked for it to be served without Adobo Sauce. They said it was premixed. Gotta say it was very bad. The fish was in a parchment bag swimming in Adobo. I took a few bites a just left it. Husband liked his chicken dish. So far our most expensive meal in Mexico. read more

What an amazing experience it was to dine at El Mural de los Poblanos. We stayed a day and a half in Puebla (regrettably, but we will definitely be back soon!) We found this location fairly close to the Zocalo. It was possibly a 11 minute walk or so. If you're in town and you're looking for an upscale dining experience...add this to your list. We came in during breakfast time. It's a beautiful restaurant. Beautiful art & the plates add an authentic touch. We had the tres moles enchiladas. My boyfriend and I were going to share the dish since we weren't too hungry but wanted to get our MOLE fill in. We love mole! They have a Traditional mole poblano, pipian Rojo, & pipian verde. We also got a dish off the dinner menu which were semitas. When we were planning on ordering them, they told us it was a dinner item. Which is completely understandable but a minute later our amazing waiter came by to ask if we still wanted them he could ask the kitchen to make them for us. And luckily, they made them for us! Thank you to our waiter for the excellent service. read more

We went here recently. We had the moral ensalada, some very cheesey tacos, pollo pipian verde, and chile nogada. They had a special beer to go with the chile that was quite good. Everything was good, but i especially liked the cheesy tacos. Service was good, and the restaurant was well decorated. I'd recommend this place. read more

It's a 5 compared to all the other food we had in Puebla. Maybe not the worlds best but we found food in Puebla to fall a little short and overall this was the nicest dinner we had. Expected a little more craftsmanship from the mezcal cocktails, but we all ordered mole enchiladas and enjoyed them. Nice little quartyard seating too. Service time was so so, but all employees were very nice. The real gem is their giftshop- we spent a lot of time at the end of our trip buying mole to go (the sell it frozen), clay shot glasses and dishes, plus some speciality liqueurs. They even sell their pretty hand painted recycled glass cups that are served in the restaurant. Overall a nice place, I'd return if I visited Puebla again read more

Excellent poblana food! Great service and ambience. We ordered cemita sampler, verdolaga salad and albóndigas. Waitresses are amazing and kind. Mexican wine was great! As a digestive, we had a Yolixpo (some type of alcohol infused with 13 herbs) and it was exquisite! This place is where the first chile en nogada was made. The murals are awesome and the ambience in general is casual but with fine dining service. This is a must if you're visiting Puebla. read more

On our first night here in Puebla, my husband and I came to eat here based on my cousin's recommendation. It was a good suggestion and I did enjoy the food, but was a tad bit disappointed with our waiter who seemed to be having a bit of an off night. I tried to be pleasant with him, but he seemed a bit too serious and not too friendly. He did bring us our drinks but I had to ask him for our silverware and had to remind him of a few things. We first ordered "Quesadillas de flor de Calabaza" which is Quesadillas made with squash flower, which is a special quesadilla I've been craving for once I returned to Mexico. My mom used to make it when I was a kid, so I was looking forward to get in here, and of course only here in Mexico. I wanted so badly for my husband to try it and get the experience. Anyhow, I misread the menu and believe it was supposed to have four pieces, so when I asked the waiter he didn't seem to take my question so nicely, oh vey! My husband ordered for his main coarse the ribs with salsa pasilla, which he enjoyed and I liked it as well, of course I tried it! The ribs were falling off the bone tender. Eat your heart out Kansas City! Anyhow, I had the traditional mole poblano, with the chicken which it typically comes with, although they did provide your choice of meat. I did enjoy the mole, but have to admit that a few days later after eating mole here, I had tried homemade mole from an old lady whose family had invited us to mourn along with her family during "Day of the Dead," and we had the chance to experience a tradition that goes back to Nahuatl/Mexica heritage with the alter and inviting strangers to eat along with family members who are mourning their deceased loved ones. It will be a memory my husband and I will treasure for a long time. I unfortunately loved her mole a lot more than this restaurant style mole; however, this place was a close second. If I ever come back, I may try the albondegas (Mexican meatballs) which I recall my mom making, but she never taught me how to make these, and I miss them. Overall, the place was a nice place to eat, but wished that the waiter had been in better spirits that day. read more

All I'm going to say is GO TO EL MURAL DE LOS POBLANOS if you happen to be in Puebla. Each dish is lovingly prepared, and the service is fantastic. They are serious about customer service there, and serious about the food. Beautiful restaurant inside and such an amazing menu. I can't recommend this restaurant enough. read more

The service was NOT welcoming/ inviting. If you're looking for a family friendly restaurant this is not the place. Unfortunately Mexico has the stigma, how they see you is how they will treat you. We walked in, ready to eat some delicious mole however left offended when the host took away my water bottle when already seated at the table. If they did not want no outside drinks inside the establishment they should have stated that upon arrival. To top it all off the food was mid. If you're looking for delicious authentic mole, I would look somewhere else!!! read more

La comida es gourmet y el servicio fue excelente y especialmente Martín nos dio un excelente servicio

We had a very nice dinner here with friends. The restaurant is very nice and decorated with plants throughout and murals on the wall. Our friends told us they are known for their poblano dishes. We started with chalupas poblano appetizer that was good with the various salsas. I got the pork with poblano mole and my wife a thinly cut steak. I am not a big fan of mole but it was ok. The pork was good. My wife's steak could have used something to with it such as chimichurri. The service was good and the waiters attentive. read more

I had the Salpicón de Res salad, and it was absolutely delicious. I would definitely get it again. My husband had the Chile Ancho Relleno de Queso and really enjoyed it. Next time he plans to try Escamoles, ant eggs, which are currently in season. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. Service was outstanding. We explored the menu in Spanish first, but with so many details and so much variety, we appreciated our server's offer of an English menu. Really pleasant atmosphere in a beautiful old building with balconies overlooking the street. Vibrant rooms with colorful murals. We dressed up a bit but many people were comfortably in the casual clothing they'd worn to enjoy Semana Santa festivities. read more

You could not ask for a better experience to sample the food and drink of Puebla. Unfortunately, I arrived just after the season for Chiles en Nogada, a signature dish of the area and also of Mexico. But aside from that, the menu is full of mole from Puebla and Oaxaca as well as Mezcal and wines from Mexico and many other local dishes. The food earns a solid 5 for flavor and quality. Atmosphere including music, art, and vibe earn another solid 5. Service also can't be topped. They obviously have a high ratio of service people to customers and they all are knowledgeable and hustle. Highly recommend and will return! read more

This location is widely suggested. I will say that it is worth seeing the murals inside. Tell is interesting story and no matter how many times you look at them you'll always walk away having seen something new. I look at the pictures I have, and each section tells a story that ties in together to another piece. I wish I walked away with some sort of pamphletor more information about it. The food was great. I completely enjoyed my meal and my soup. I would highly suggest checking this out when you're in Puebla we did not try what they're known for. (I don't eat meat) But my coworkers and I had no complaints on how well the service, the ambience, the decor, and the food was. I would highly suggest reviewing the menu prior to arriving because you will need to speak in Spanish as your in a Spanish speaking country. read more

Absolutely love the place, service was on point, super clean, COVID safe, food was Soo good. We went in for brunch they start coffee,Americano, or, Cappuccino and offer sweet bread. They take your food order while you wait they bring you , fresh fruit and yogurt with nut/ granola on the side. Options for fresh juice Green, pineapple, orange, grapefruit. We ordered something familiar ....chiliquiles I got with chicken and green sauce and hubby got steak with red sauce.. Both were perfect... crunch was right green sauce Perfect and his. Red sauce was slightly smoky yes n yes. This is a must go place and the price tag for all of this was LESS THAN $25 USD read more

Every time i come to Puebla we all eat here, my favorite, until last night July 29. We were a group of 5 and we were seated at an enormous table so with the loud background noise we could hardly talk. Staff refused to consider an extra chair at a table for four. Then we finally ordered. First basket of bread was cold and rock hard. Second basket was hot. A glass of wine was way past due. I was told that was the only red they have by the glass. How is this possible? our waiter didn't offer to open another bottle of same. Instead he insisted on 1/2 bottles. Fine, we then had a drinkable if overpriced wine. The other 3 had cocktails and were happy. We all ordered the soup or salad. When the first course was brought our waiter also plopped down the mole desgustation plate of 5 moles and one black bean and the tortillas.. needless to say all were cold by the time we finished our soup and salad. I'm extremely disappointed. It was a Tuesday night and the restaurant is always full but to spend so much money, not be able to converse and have a cold main dish is unacceptable. read more

Visiting Puebla after being in Cancun for a week. This Restaurant was recommended to us while in Cancun. It's has a nice ambience., you can tell that not just anyone comes here to eat. The food was tasty. Everyone pretty much enjoyed their meal. I recommend this place if you enjoy Mole. There are many Mole options since Puebla is known for Mole. The only thing for us is we are use to a more fast paced service, so service is a little on the slow side. That is something we have noticed while being in Mexico. The portion sizes are sizable. Come hungry. read more

Fun place, good food. Mexican vibes. Fast service. Crowded. Worth visiting. I would recommend for family or group of friends

Would gladly return to Puebla just to dine here again. A wonderful spot for brunch/breakfast. I was a little disappointed that they didn't have the goat mole they had on the menu online but they had just switched to a new seasonal menu. After a healthy dose of fruit, juice, pan dulce and pan salgado, I had the basic mole with chicken: how incredibly perfect. A little sweet and spicy as well as moderately bitter with fresh sliced avocado on top. Tortillas and chicken both perfectly tender. Every bite was delicious. I felt a little out of place since most other parties were families there for a proper Saturday brunch and I was alone, mainly there to try the food. They were still quite courteous and even put a bib on me! (When I tried to take it off, realizing that I do not, like my 3yo, need a bib, they also helped me remove it!) The restaurant itself is very pretty. I sat in the center of their courtyard (covered with glass above, of course). The food was so good it took me a little while to notice all the murals. The wait staff often give guests a quick guide of who's on the mural on request. You might be concerned that this place is touristy since it's so close to the main square, but from the sound of it, it was really mainly locals. This was honestly one of the highlights of my visit to Puebla. read more

Great food. We had the mole pepita, mole sampler, chicken soup, and squash blossom quesadilla. Rice pudding for dessert. My wife and I each had a cocktail and some bottled waters. Everything was great, we were out the door for around $100. It was our most expensive meal in Puebla, but totally worth it. read more

Visited this place during my business trip, the food was excellent, service was on par. The food is very authentic Puebla style. The ambience is very nice, the roof opens up to the out side and you are actually sitting in a courtyard, the Resturant has some history as it was built in the 1800's. The walls are painted with faces of famous people such as movies stars, politicians and other- very cool. The restaurant also has a small store at the entrance where you can purchase various local items including the restaurants "mole pueblano" and local Mezcal. read more

Exelente comida y servicio 100%recomendado el mole es muy muy rico definitivamente regresaré

I had the best breakfast I've ever had at this lovely open-air beautiful restaurant. The chalupas (*nothing* at all like they are in the states) tasted like they were made my God. They bring 3 different delectable salsas to the table as well as bread and churros. I looked around the restaurant and everyone else's dishes looked spectacular. The ambiance is perfect for a date night or for breakfast with friends. The mimosa was delicious (the champagne poured at your table) and the service from the hostesses (who speak English and Spanish) to the server to the manager made you feel like you are a V.I.P. They also offered mineral water for Americans who want to avoid tummy troubles. Great quality food, beautiful, colorful surroundings with the open air overhead. If you're in Puebla, you *MUST* to go to this place for breakfast--you will not be disappointed. It was so nice, I went twice. read more

August 6th, 2021 Most memorable meal in Mexico! I was visiting Puebla with my support dog and friend, eager to have a delicious typical meal from Puebla. We came for one thing in particular: Chile en Nogada. My friend recommended "Mural de los Poblanos" because of their beautiful atmosphere with colorful murals and delicious upscale food since she had eaten there before. I recommend making a reservation in advance to make sure you have a spot since it is a popular spot. When we arrived, they were extremely accommodating and figured out a way to seat us with my dog. (Heads up: if you have a medical condition and travel with a support dog, you must bring documentation with you). They sat us in a private room for small events, which let us play our own music on an app called "Sonos". We were dancing to regatón and having ourselves a little party. In particular, Oscar, Jonathan, and Lucio were so attentive and welcoming. They gave us excellent suggestions for what to order and we felt right at home. Their drink list (especially Mezcal) is super extensive. We ordered the cemitas trio "trilogía de cemitas", chapulines tostadas "tostadas de jocoque con chapulines" and nopal salad "ensalada de nopal" to start. I really recommend the cemitas! They are like mini sandwiches. Chapulines are fried crickets, so if you are scared of eating bugs, don't be! They do an amazing job of making it taste and look delicious. For our entrees, we ordered the mole assortment and chile en nogada (only available in July, August, and September). It was so interesting to taste the many different types of mole they offer. The chile en nogada was AMAZING! The story behind it is even better. If you don't already know the story, ask the waiter! Also ask the waiter about their mural that depicts Mexican sayings. Overall, we had the best experience! I can't wait to return. read more

For sure eat here when you are in Puebla. Order the chicken mole, and a drink of your choice. The mescal cocktails are great. If you happen to be solo, you can take a chair outside in the main hallway and people watch. The staff are super nice. If it is the right season, you can even try chiles en nogada, with pomegranate. There's a hip bar next door too. Viva Puebla! read more
