Price: Very Expensive•Dining Bar•4.9(113)NUMŌH is the inverse name of "Homún" (our first restaurant name) which comes from combining "Ho", for home, and "mún", for common. A composition that reflects the philosophy of the place as a common space where everyone meets to enjoy delicious food, delicious drinks and a relaxed atmosphere that will make you live an exceptional dining experience.
Chef Mario Borja seeks through his "free cuisine" to express a culinary format that is based on the simple fact of cooking what we like to eat, without pretension, respecting the balance of flavors, the good execution of the technique and the fresh seasonal product.
The menu is composed of options with local seafood such as the Meunière catch of the day a, grilled prawns, tuna ceviche to fine cuts such as the NY and a wide variety of appetizers that will complement the table and the snack accompanying your favorite wine or cocktail. .

The feeling of living is Zicatela, Welcome to paradise!La Tienda Grande
Price: Very Expensive•Contemporary Mexican•4.8(44)Coming Soon!
Located in the old big store of the town, the restaurant was born.
La Tienda Grande was simmered as a tribute to the women who made me a cook, to my mother, my 4 grandmothers, aunts, friends and those ladies I have met in life and have inspired me; I will base the menu on the dishes that I have tried and that are still in my memory, they will be interpreted in my own way; my team and I will make creative Mexican cuisine.
And to all this, who am I?
I'm a cook and that´s all.
When an idea is born, the rest of the things go to the background, I don't want to be the protagonist of something that has essence on its own.
Chef Salvador Carrillo, Pata Salada
