We've compiled the best of the best in Querétaro - browse our top choices for the top things to see or do during your stay.
This tremendously popular restaurant, named after Querétaro's version of Robin Hood, is on the handsome Plaza de Armas. It's strong on regional dishes like goat-filled tacos and shrimp with nopal (cactus) and corundas (a kind of tamale from the neighboring state of Michoacán).
The flower-filled grand patio in this perfectly restored hacienda a 15-minute drive north of the city offers inviting outdoor dining shaded by umbrellas. The house specialty is carnitas, chunks of pork stewed overnight and served with oodles of guacamole, beans, and homemade tortillas. There's live mariachi music many evenings, and musicians perform in the bar, too, which serves a lighter menu and is open later.
