I had a Caldo Tlalpeño, which was delicious, especially with a little onion and lime. Instead of guacamole and chips, I had bread with avocado and cheese, perfect for dipping. For my main plate, I had the Mole Poblano con Pato, which is the city's famous mole sauce on a tender, properly cooked duck leg. Wow! Oh, and a Vampiro is now my favorite cocktail.

Great local food! This is right outside the Rosewood Hotel alongside 4-5 other restaurants. I came…read morehere for lunch in a group of 12. There's no air conditioning but the breeze comes through. We got the typical traditional Puebla dishes - * chile en nogada (stuffed poblano pepper in nut sauce and pomegranate) * cecina (thin, marinated salted beef) * green enchiladas * caldo (soup) with chili * mole with pork (cerdo) * chalupas combinadas (chalupas with red salsa, green salsa, mole) The bread with avocado and cheese is not complimentary - I think it was like 60 pesos per order, and they brought out 2 orders without asking. Deducting a star for that and the ambiance, or lack thereof. 75 pesos for 2 Palomas (citrus juice with alcohol and salt rim) or 2 sangrias during happy hour. Yes to the Palomas, even though it was made with lemon and not grapefruit juice. The agua fresca of lemon and chia seeds was refreshing too. Now the food is excellent. I don't think I had a favorite. They're all very different. The only thing I wouldn't get again are the chalupas. Fried dough doesn't appeal too much to me. The cecina was too salty for me, but I still enjoyed the flavor. The sweetness of the Chile en Nogada threw off my friends, but I liked it. Reminded me of Persian dishes like fesenjan. The mole was sweeter than I'm used to but was delicious, and the soup and enchiladas were great, too. The service is slow but the grandpa owner is the third generation owner whose grandma established the restaurant - and his grandchildren currently work at the restaurant, so 5 generations have been pouring into this establishment. Hearing the story makes it a part of the experience. So yeah! Recommended for food - perhaps even more so at dinner time when it's not so hot outside :)

As soon as we walked in we were warmly greeted and sat at our table. We reviewed the menu, which was extensive and I had trouble deciding if I was going with the ribs or picañha so the waiter brought out both options on a platter for me to choose from - I ended up going with the ribs which was an excellent choice. We also order the flautas, pinto beans, queso fundido con chorizo and a couple of things. All absolutely delish. The salsas they brought out were also insane. The one with the sautéed onions and sauce? Man I wish I would've asked what it was called because it was damn good. We also ordered a bottle of wine - cab/syrah blend and it was exquisite. Easily a top ten wine. So good that it has inspired a trip to the wine region in Baja California! If I come back to Puebla, this is for sure my first stop. Absolutely incredible.

Because of this location I have gone to another OCHO 30 at a different location and I have to say it was not the same and it was highly disappointing and definitely shows that location matter and although they are the same franchise restaurant, they are not all equal whatsoever. The chicken fettuccine pasta was absolutely amazing and so was the lasagna. I will definitely be back to try the pizza and other options that they have. Also the service was absolutely amazing and impeccable upon asking for a outlet to charge my phone they were so available and readily able to help me. I highly recommend this place to all.

The pictures can do the food no justice. Everything is made from scratch, fresh, and with delicious ingredients. The meat is very high-quality (very very important for me, as I'm super picky about meat). Prices are extremely good, and portions are perfect. On my trip here, I ended up coming here every single day, sometimes multiple times!! If you are looking for some of the best food, made with real caring and love, drop by this little restaurant. You will most likely become a regular, like me, when I am in the area! P. S. BEST tacos dorados and BEST pozole i've ever had.
