“ This was actually our backup plan once we realized our first choice was closed. Now, it feels like it may have been divine intervention. The tacos were second to none, and my partner nearly shed a tear after the first bite of The Cristo. Sorry I didn't get a picture of it. We were too hungry to wait. When you go, cuz you should, I hope Santiago is your server he was a 10! ”
“ Awesome little rooftop terrace bar with great music, delicious food, and excellent service! Found this place as we were walking back to centro and heard some Salsa music being played! They invited us in and we found a nice table upstairs! We ordered the Volcanes with pastor and they were very delicious! The service was fast and friendly! The music was great and everyone was having a great time! Dancing, enjoying drinks, and eating delicious food! Recommended that you go here and enjoy this awesome rooftop terrace! ”
“ A beautiful rooftop terrace with live music and salsa dancing. There are lessons on Wednesday and Sunday. The food is good and the drinks are tasty. A wonderful place to watch the city come to life at night. ”
“ What an AMAZING find (in cheap Eats SMA)! We were shocked at how beautiful the rooftop was overlooking. The city is beautiful views, and some of the churches, and even beautiful street views looking down. At the time we went to patio wasn’t packed, which was really nice because we could see sunset. Our waiter was incredibly resourceful and kind and the tacos were unbelievable!! The prices are incredible and this is one of my favorite spots to date. A definite must try! They have three different tiers of tacos one including a crusted option and you could either get street tacos or a step it up with their platters or Mochetes! They really have it all! ”
“ This is a beautiful and relaxed rooftop bar and set of pizza and taco restaurants. It's a lovely setting without feeling at all pretentious. Food and drink are very reasonably priced as well. I highly recommend spending an afternoon here. ”
“ Marg was top notch. “Pink cosmo” with gin was a hit with the wife. One of the best guacs we’ve had in SMA. Had multiple versions of their tacos and all were great. Our server was attentive. Would definitely go back ”
“ Ok so their menu is limited did wise as far it being mainly tacos. However, they were very good and it was a great spot to enjoy a sunset, have some tacos and drinks. The rooftop is pretty cool to enjoy a late afternoon or sunset as we did. I would recommend Umami in San Miguel de Allende to anyone wanting some quick tacos and a few drinks and great ambiance. Music was great, service was awesome and it was very lively and with the night all the lights came on and it was really great to just unwind and enjoy the evening. Thanks to the staff, it was great. I'll drop a few pics with my review. It is Wednesday early evening so not 7pm yet and it's a nice crowd and mix of people. ”
“ Absolutely loved this place. Great Tacos and amazing cocktails. The lovely bartenders even made us join them in an impromptu karaoke session. Very sweet service. ”
