Perfectly cooked, flavorful, and honestly some of the best we've had. The guac was fresh and elevated by the tuna on top, which added a really nice, unexpected touch. Service was wonderful throughout the meal -- attentive without being overbearing, and everything came out at just the right pace. The beers were ice cold, which was perfect given the warm evening. The setting itself is absolutely beautiful -- relaxed, inviting, and thoughtfully designed, making it a great spot whether you're out for a casual meal or a special night. Casa Luna really nails the balance between great food, great drinks, and great ambiance. We'll definitely be back.

It came with blue tortillas and let me just say it was amazing! From now on guacamole is not going to be the same without some chicharron.

Last but not least our waiter Martin was awesome and very attentive. A definite must stop. It will not disappoint.

I thought it would be like an hour wait but they got us in, in about 10 minutes which was awesome! The decor is cute and very open! They have a playground for the little ones in the back! I got the molcajete and they pour the sauce over it once they bring it to your table. It was delicious! The meat was so tender and tasty! It even comes with fresh hand made tortillas which you can see them making them from a window near the back! I had a great experience and definitely recommend. The server was very nice as well.

Local art (for sale) hang on the wall while the TV plays some classics pop music from the 80s(?) I was hungry and was looking for a big steak. Seeing most of the filete were 6.4oz, I was at first not sure if it will be enough. I went for the mole filete Encacahuatado. It came a garlic bread perfectly toasted. The steak sat on top of a bed of alfalfa sprout, zucchini and mushrooms. The star is of course the mole sauce. In the end, I finished everything including the bread. I was so full that I did not have room for the flan I wanted to try. The servers are all very polite and one spoke good English. I highly recommend this place. You may not get the ambience or mariachi singing live, but instead, you get excellent food and service.

If you're in GDL, this is a must stop and eat at place!…read more While staying in GDL for one night on business, I wanted to find something that was authentic to Mexico. Something that wasn't too flashy with the price amped up and definitely not a street vendor (whole other story)...came across this place on yelp. The pictures drew me in, the reviews sold me! Took a chance, hired an Uber and off I went to check this place out. Definitely a "hole in the wall" appearance from the street, but once you get inside you're greeted with the bright Mexican colors, the tasteful restaurant layout and attentive sincere staff. The food was phenomenal! 10/10 for the Tacos de Jicama!! (MUST TRY, over and over again!!) 9/10 Pulpo Loco! The Octopus was cooked to perfection! (Which is not an easy task)...Add the lovely light vegetables, then pair with the tamarind sauce, extremely delicious! Sadly, I wasn't pleased with the risotto. (Fix the risotto and you have 10/10 hands down!) Lastly, absolutely loved that they offer an English menu, traditional Mexican music on multiple tv's (volume was perfect for conversing), as well as gorgeous art for purchase. You will not be disappointed by this restaurant! Next time I'm in GDL, I'll be back and this time I'll be staying for dessert or two! PERFECTA

Patio Elegance at Real San Pedro…read more Real San Pedro in Tlaquepaque is more than a restaurant--it's an institution. The courtyard, cooled by Guadalajara's air and framed by open doors and windows, feels open yet welcoming. Inside, the walls are dotted with striking art, unique decorations, and large windows that pull every room back toward the heart of the patio. On Saturday afternoons, a live band plays gently in the background, giving the whole place a festive but unhurried rhythm. We started with sparkling water mixed with the traditional suero of salt and lemon--simple, refreshing, and perfectly suited to the warm afternoon. Guacamole came fresh, framed by crisp corn chips along the edges of the plate. The real star was the corn tortillas, served piping hot in an embroidered sack made just for the restaurant. Soft, fragrant, and full of flavor, they were so good we ordered a second round without hesitation. Service was attentive, though at moments it felt a little rushed. For mains, we ordered two classics. The Chile en Nogada arrived with a thick sauce made from evaporated milk, sugar, cream cheese, almonds, cinnamon, and even canned peach juice. The result was overwhelmingly sweet, drowning out the other elements like the meat and pomegranate. The Carne en su Jugo, described as meat with vegetables, came instead as a brothy, spicy soup. While not what we expected, it was hearty, comforting, and deeply flavorful. Real San Pedro draws many Mexican visitors, and it's clear why. With its mix of tradition, atmosphere, and lively energy, it's the kind of place that invites you to slow down, eat well, and soak it all in. #RealSanPedro #GuadalajaraEats #Tlaquepaque La Elegancia del Patio en Real San Pedro Real San Pedro en Tlaquepaque es más que un restaurante--es una institución. Su patio, refrescado por la brisa de Guadalajara y rodeado de puertas y ventanas abiertas, transmite amplitud y cercanía a la vez. El interior está lleno de arte llamativo, decoraciones únicas y ventanales que conectan cada rincón con el patio central. Los sábados por la tarde, una banda en vivo aporta un ambiente alegre y relajado, perfecto para pasar el día. Comenzamos con agua mineral acompañada del clásico suero de sal y limón: sencillo, refrescante y preciso. El guacamole llegó fresco, con totopos colocados en los bordes del plato. Pero lo mejor fueron las tortillas de maíz, servidas calientes en un saco bordado especialmente para el lugar. Tiernas, fragantes y llenas de sabor, tan buenas que pedimos otra ronda sin pensarlo. El servicio fue atento, aunque a ratos un poco apurado. En los fuertes pedimos dos clásicos. El Chile en Nogada llegó con una salsa espesa de leche evaporada, azúcar, queso crema, almendras, canela y hasta jugo de durazno enlatado. El resultado fue demasiado dulce, cubriendo sabores como la carne y la granada. La Carne en su Jugo, descrita como carne con verduras, se presentó más bien como un caldo picante. Aunque inesperado, fue un plato reconfortante, abundante y muy sabroso. Real San Pedro atrae sobre todo a visitantes mexicanos, y se entiende por qué. Con su mezcla de tradición, ambiente y energía alegre, es un lugar que invita a quedarse, disfrutar y dejarse llevar. #RealSanPedro #SaboresDeGuadalajara #Tlaquepaque

I walked in and the only thing I felt was their face looking and staring at me , I did not feel welcome, it was not just one person but the 6 ppl that were sitting in two tables. I could not believe that in Mexico I would ever feel unwelcome just bc of the color of my skin. With tears in my eyes I walk out bc the ppl there were very obvious and just with their nasty stares kick me out of a restaurant. Never in my life have I experienced this kind of situation.

You have to walk up at least four different sets of stairs, so this is certainly not for the handicapped! The rooftop terrace for a restaurant was quite beautiful. Its got a touch of foliage and great interior design to keep me looking around. Our waitress was kind, decent with english, and prompt to our needs. We got there 40 minutes before the mariachi band was about to play. I hate live music when eating, especially when it involves screeching trumpets. Maybe this is a plus for you, but not for me. The Pina colada mocktail was delicious here! Like coconut ice cream, with a decent amount of cherry flavor in the mix. I like the cherry on top for garnish and dynamic. I imagine with alcohol it's just as good. Their queso fundido is quite satisfying. Big gooey globs of stringy salty cheese drive right. Get the chorizo and mushrooms with it, because it makes it 5 times better. They dont cut either item into smaller chunks, but it's still quite satisfying to get everything on one chip. I ordered the sugar cane taco, but ended up with the skirt steak one. It was super basic, with no seasoning, felt like a burger with the lettuce and tomatoes, and the meat was cut in a way where the meat was quite dry and stringy. Avoid this particular taco. The hibiscus taco will not be for everyone, but it was a fantastic foray into sweet and savory. It's like a condensed Jamaica drink but with all the other usual savory components of a taco. The pulpo here is pretty decent. They don't over season and the texture is fairly soft (although there's not much spring). They pile on the avocado on this one! The beef flauntas are quite satisfying. Crunchy outside, bursting with corn oil, and with a decent amount of veggies and crema on the outside. The plantains flameado is quite simple, but if you like brandy and soft, sweet plantains, then you will enjoy this. They don't give you much else other than a creamy sauce to dip the plantain.
