If you go to one place in the Valle, this is that place. This lively restaurant has a down-home family feel. Bring a large group, explore the grounds, eat amazing, rich foods. You won’t forget it.
“Both Juan and I have deep love for this place. He suggests starting with some blue fin tuna tostadas and a cazuela of beef tongue in salsa verde to make your own tacos. For the main dish, if you like quail, this is the spot, or split the massive rib eye with the table. The wine selection here is extensive and sure to please everyone. I love a sunset walk with my cocktail and a quick trip to check in on the baby goats. It’s turned into a full camp by Javier Plascencia with ice cream, coffee and “Lupe” the torta truck. I can’t wait to see what else he does. A must-visit when you’re in the Valle.” —Lindsey
