Attentive service and really good Puebla food, in a beautiful museum atmosphere. We had chicken Adobo and the Duo Poblano, which is chicken with both Mole Poblano and Pipián Verde (see photo) and all three were delicious. Also the children's menu items were enjoyed as well as dessert. And it the classic salad was delicious as well as safely prepared. Location is near the Zocalo in the historical colonial downtown area. Child diners receive not just a paper to color, but a full on coloring book filled with images and content from the museum. read more

Lovely, atmospheric restaurant! We had a really enjoyable dinner at La Casa del Mendrugo - and as a bonus, while we waited for our meal to be cooked, we visited the onsite museum which housed a collection of pre-Hispanic exhibits from Oaxaca! The food was really good and the atmosphere was terrific. The restaurant has an expensive feel with formally dressed waiters and white linens, but in actual fact the prices are very reasonable. What a lovely place to spend our last night in Puebla! read more

Great tasting food in a great vibe and with a museum. We have the Mole Poblano and the chicken was extremely tender and mole was very smooth and not overpowering. The Chile Nogale was flavorful with a slight heat. The restaurant has a chill and upscale vibe and the museum is not to be missed. read more

Truly much more than a restaurant, La Casa del Mendrugo also sports a museum on the upper levels with local history exhibits. It adds a true archaeological vibe, along with the ancient remains on display underneath the floor by the entrance. The real story however is the food. The Picana steak is a perfect example of how beef can be perfectly cooked with just a grill and some salt and pepper. It was accompanied by the creamiest mashed potatoes I've ever had. I'm not normally a fan of mashed potatoes but this side has won me over. While the menu maybe pricey in the local currency, I found the meal to be a steal in USD. La Casa del Mendrugo is the perfect place for a classy meal in historic Puebla. read more

Very good food, good ambience and worth going for dinner with small family or couple. Service is great.

The waiter forgot both my drink order, and then my food sat so long waiting to be given to me. It arrived cold. My colleagues food came quickly and they all noted it was warm. I didn't finish my meal, I don't make it a point to eat cold food. The setting is great and would highly recommend for a romantic dinner with a date. Or even a night out with your friends. read more

A pleasant surprise. The building in itself is very special since they found relics dating hundreds of yours ago on the exact site. The food and service is exceptional. We were serenaded with relaxing piano music over dinner and we checked out their Museum upstairs to walk off all the delicious food we ate. It's a must try! read more

SUPER COOL PLACE, so apart from great service and decent prices it was a crazy twist to know we were actually dinning in place that was declared historical monument. Upstairs after we had our amazing brunch...was a Museum explaining everything... read more

Food was outstanding. Even with a trying evening with our baby, my wife and I were both really impressed with the food. Not a big mole fan before visiting Puebla, but the city really has proven its credibility and I'm a believer. read more

The location of the restaurant is great. Very quiet in a courtyard covered with a mobile roof. You can also choose to eat outside in the patio at the back of the restaurant. Waiters were very kind professional and polite. However, the food was a huge disappointment. I decided to come here for the veggie options they have. I ordered " arroz a la mexicana " and it was tasteless and watery. They put it in the main course menu and it was a size of an appetizer. I also ordered a glass of wine that was good but the size of a " flight ". I won't go back because I can def eat better and for cheaper in Puebla. I do not recommend this place for the food. read more

What a place! Excellent ambience, great service and some of the best tapas I have ever had! Loved the live piano music and the museum upstairs also. The house wine from Navarra is truly amazing, and the selection on the wine menu looks fine. I would recommend this place any day! read more

I was disappointed by the poor quality of the food and service here. Would not recommend

Beautiful space, fantastic service, and incredible food. I was lucky enough to be able to enjoy the seasonal chile de nevado. What a treat! Be sure to check out the museum above the restaurant. The engraved skulls are so cool! read more

The service is good but the food was really terrible. The steak was super salty and the paella is fake. Just yellow rice with seafood on top. Very disappointed and cannot recommend. Our waiter was wonderful though and tried his best to please us read more

This may be on of the finest Mexican meals ever. The food was perfect, from appetizer to sublime dessert. The menu is bilingual and accurate. The staff is professional. Flawless really except for some pop music in the background. But the incongruity is México. read more

Unfortunately we did not have a good dinning experience here. The food was bland and the service was sub par. I asked to try a wine before I decided (a wine that they sell by the glass at that!) and they would not let me try it. I've never experienced this before. It's a nice place but the food was overall disappointing. read more

The restaurant is in a building that used to be a Jesuit house. It was remodeled a few years ago. The courtyard is beautiful and elegant. The service was excellent. The meal was good. The wine was ok, the pour was on the smallish side. read more

Nice place. Mexican Traditional food with an extra gourmet touch. Great ambiance with piano music. Service can be improved but good.

Place = beautiful, food = ok (we had much better food here in Puebla), price = ok to high (will explain), service = not good. That is why I say price is high, normally if everything is good, price can be scored accordingly. There is much better food here in Puebla with much better service and more for your money. This was our first time here so hopefully this was just a bad evening and they were short handed. read more

As a native Pueblan, I was excited to try this restaurant because of all the attention it's been getting over the past couple of years. Unfortunately, my experience was very disappointing and unsatisfactory. The food is very bland and unremarkable. I had the paella valenciana and, in complete honesty, it tasted like boiled rice with shrimp, lacking the deep seafood flavors and socarrat that should be present in any paella. The service staff was very inattentive and unfriendly. For a restaurant of this price range, I was expecting table cloths and cloth napkins, both of which they lacked. Summarizing, I was disappointed with my experience and I am not planing to come back. The only positive aspect was the venue, which is an old Pueblan casona. read more

Great for listening to jazz, lovely atmosphere and a surprise hidden behind all that: the archaeological site that proves that Puebla used to be populated before the Spanish settlers. The museum is on the first floor. That's another story, the food is great and the drinks, perfect. read more

I'm extremely satisfied with my visit to La Casa del Mendrugo. Not only the food was beyond perfect with a nice on point picaña steak and wine, but with the soothing live music and the modern fusion of old and new the place brings. There's even a museum where you can find out the history of the place that you can check out while your food it's ready. Pre Hispanic remains were found here and it's an exclusive display in the second floor, and also you can check the history of the building itself, one of the very first buildings of Puebla that lasted till today. Live music seem to range among different styles. When I made my body we had jazz from high caliber New York artists, tomorrow there's Spanish music and we plan to come again too. This place it's beyond eating, this it's an experience that can end your day in Puebla in a wonderful way. read more

Friendly staffs ! Nice ambience and unique restaurant concept! Jazz event, bar, the restaurant itself is museum! Close by centre area! read more

Loved loved loved this place! Tried yellow tuna as main dish. Their croquetas con jamon are good too, lots of Spanish dishes and if you are up for a paella with some Mexican fine cuisine choices it's a place to try. Service is excellent. read more

We really enjoyed the entire experience here. The restaurant's in a gorgeous courtyard. There was nice live music. The staff is top notch, and the food is solid. We had tapas and drinks, which were both top quality. Our server suggested we visit the museum upstairs to see the artifacts discovered under the building and nearby. It was wonderful and a highlight. We wish we ate dinner here because everyone raves about it. Highly recommended. read more

I rarely give reviews but felt compelled to comment after eating here. This place is simply charming with very good food. We decided to treat ourselves to a final night high end meal and weren't disappointed. The restaurant is worth going to just for its design and unique decor. Everyone was so attentive and helpful that we left smiling. Prices are just slightly higher than some other places around but it was a great value that was worth every penny, read more

We loved the service, and of course the food was excellent. Because it was my husbands birthday the captain gave us a bottle of wine to celebrate while we listened to live jazz. An absolutely great experience! I highly recommend this place! read more

It's a great place for dinner, take a coffe or a beer! Right now I'm with the English Conversation Club Puebla!

Very good restaurant, if a bit pricey. Mixed Mexican and Continental menu. I especially like their pasta dishes. There is also a small museum, and frequent jazz concerts. It is located two blocks from the Zocalo. Very good location for a romantic evening or minor splurge meal. read more

I had a half Mole Poblano and half Pipián Verde and it was fabuloso. However the margarita I ordered was weak, and the drink menu wasn't as extensive as I would have liked. The ambiance was great. read more
