This is one of our favorite restaurants! It's Peruvian. Try a Pisco Sour or my favorite is the sangria punch.

Another favorite. They specialize in Mezcal, so if you've never tried it - try it here! Their shrimp skewers are the best!

Consejos sobre la ciudad

Cómo moverse

Use Shuttles, Taxis and Uber

Parking in San Miguel is a nightmare. There is no dedicated parking at our house and street parking is impossible to come by. We use BajioGo Shuttles to/from the airport . They also have drivers available for trips to golf or other sights. Search for BajioGo Shuttle Taxis are easy and run about 70 pesos from the Jardin to our house. Uber is available in the city. If you are in town for an event or wedding, give yourself more time than you think you need (or than online Maps say) as traffic can be crazy and you may be stuck not moving for some time - especially on weekends.
