La Catrina

A simple restaurant, BUT with stunning views. The kitchen and service are very satisfactory. Here we tried a cactus salad. It is quite edible, but the consistency is unfamiliar. Maybe I won't order the second time. I'm sorry.

We enjoyed everything we ordered and the atmosphere during our lunch. Very family oriented and the food was delicious. We had recommended fried ant eggs and maguey worms (copules and chinicuiles) for the first time! We also had the Mocajete Luna enough for our family of 2 adults and 3 children. This is not a cheap place, but after the long walk to the pyramids this was a very relaxing place to replace energy. Rica comida y ambiente relajante después de un gran recorrido por las pirámides. No muy económico pero vale la pena por la calidad del servicio, comida y ambiente. Les recomiendo los escamoles y chinicuiles preparados en su mesa.

I've been to a lot of places in the world, some with pretty bad service, but nothing compares to the horrible service we received at La Catrina. We ordered our food, and although the waitress brought some items relatively quickly, other items took forever (including a margarita). The main dishes (that weren't pasta) took so long, and without any checking up on us by the waitress) that my husband was ready to get the check and go eat somewhere else. We should have done that because the food that we received was only half of what we ordered. I got the Fajitas de Pollo, which is supposed to come with french fries, refried beans and guacamole. I only got the meat and the tortillas. My husband got one of their steak specialties. His was supposed to come with a baked potato and chilis. He also only got the meat. The response from the waitress when we brought this to her attention? Oh, I can get the french fries now. And then she never even brought them. Anything that we asked for after the initial orders took forever to arrive, including getting a steak knife and any subsequent drinks. The level of service is the kind that in the U.S. would result in a visit from the manager apologizing for all the mix-ups and giving us our meals for free. Yet instead, the waitress added a tip onto the bill without asking us or us confirming that. Seriously, I would never go here again. Also, they had stray dogs entering in and out of the restaurant, the mariachi wasn't great. There really is nothing to recommend this place. So to sum up, the service was horrible, the environment was bad, and the food that we got was only ok (definitely not worth the wait, the cost, or the trouble). Avoid this place!!!!

We 3 persons) came for Lunch just before the visit of the piramids. We ordered 3 local mexican specialties after trying to discuss with the waiter which doesn't speak english : not giving any advices on quantity. We received 3 volcanos of meat able to easily feed at least 6 to 7 people. Therefore, we have been clearly fooled because we would never order that quantity if some basic advices had been given. Therefore, just go away.

Se encuentra ubicado atrás de la pirámide de la Luna, lugar muy tranquilo y bonito con platillos típicos de la zona como la sopa de tortilla, carnes y molcajetes. también puedes tomar una rica bebida y postres.Si buscas antojitos como tlacoyos y quesadillas este no es el lugar ya que no se encuentran en la carta. los precios están acorde con el lugar y el servicio.
