Where to eat in Morelia

  1. Eat

    Cafe Michelena

    A lovely cafe and bookstore, with part-French, part-Mexican cuisine, situated in the heart of the historical center.

  2. Eat

    Hamburguesas las Tradicionales de las Tarascas

    A local secret and delicious late-night food spot located just northeast of the historical center. Look for a street stall tucked into a side street, Cal. Universidad de Salamanca, just across from the Poza Rica gas station. It can be a be bit hard to find, but their Mexican-style hamburgers are worth the effort, especially after a night out. Tacos too, of course. Get there before 23:00 to avoid the crowds.

  3. Eat

    Las Trojes

    An elegant steakhouse in the upscale neighborhood of Camelinas. The restaurant uses only certified Angus beef, cooked to perfection. The service is attentive yet friendly, and no detail is overlooked. Even the bread is spectacular at Las Trojes — delicately crispy baguettes accompanied by a spicy bean and herb spread.

  4. Eat

    Panoli

    A popular restaurant, particularly for brunch, along the edge of the central plaza. Outdoor seating.

  5. Eat

    Tacopolis La Huerta

    Offers a great range of salsas to accompany your quesadillas, tacos, alambra (massive meat overdose for the hardcore travellers only!). Their chipotle and avocado salsas are awesome. The hard-to-find vegetarian alambra is a nice vegg option when you are tired of quesadillas, but theirs, made with mushrooms, peppers, pineapple and optional cheese, is fairly bland. Here they serve flour, not corn, tortillas. Wireless available.
