Fabulous atmosphere and outstanding food! We had the Caesar salad and warm mushroom salad followed by the rack of lamb and seafood fettuccine! Carlos was exceptional!

Beautiful and secluded. Kind of hidden gem in the heart of Tlaquepaque. It's part of the hotel next door. Very intimate, romantic type feel. We went earlier in the evening and there was no entertainment but we were told by the manager Aaron that there was music every night. We felt very welcome and the food was good. Maybe a little more pricey than some other offerings in the area but the exclusive feel and quiet setting was very nice. Will definitely go back.

Our party had a variety of the foods from the menu. From Legoland to lasagna. It was very tasty and well prepared and presented. This was my first time here but two of our party had eaten here in the past. I highly recommend it and if you're not going pretty early you should make a reservation. The restaurant is in Tlaquepaque The art district of Guadalajara.

Very nice and classy restaurant in the heart of Tlaquepaque, a beautiful little city in Jalisco near Guadalajara’s airport. About 20 minutes by Taxi makes it worth staying in this city over GDL if you want something more quiet. TlaquePasta is my go-to spot for a guaranteed good meal for an amazing price.

Loved the warm salad. Asparagus soup also. Fresh bread is always a plus. Didn't like the seafood risotto. Too salty. Went there twice and back for breakfast. So I must have liked it.

An excellent experience. The staff was very attentive and the the food was delicious. The most authentic Italian food outside of Italy. The attention to detail was phenomenal. I highly recommend this establishment. The decor and the patio added to the phenomenal experience.

I like this place so much!! Live music is a big surprise and romantic. The singer has an excellent vocal and give me a memorable night. I have to say that it's the best restaurant in Tlaquepaque. I have tried Mexican Fillet and Fetuccini Alfredo with chicken, and both dishes are great. I don't speak Spanish but the staffs are friendly and helpful.

We decided to try this place based on the reviews and it did not disappoint. Everything was exceptional from the service to the quality / presentation of the food to the live saxophonist. Carlos was so nice and very attentive. We had an amazing experience and will definitely come back on our next visit!

Delicious food, great ambiance with live music, and amazing customer service. Ivan, the manager went above and beyond, our server Rafa did excellent too, we even got to meet on passing the chef who was so kind (can't remember his name). We ordered a margherita pizza and bone marrow. We LOVED the bone marrow so much that we had to have two orders, if you are a fan, highly recommend.

Top notch service and hospitality. Very safe location! The food is excellent. You must try the bone marrow! The live music that was played was incredible as well.

I walked past this restaurant several times and was looking forward to trying it. As a lone female traveler it always nice to find a restaurant that can be my go to where I feel safe as I explore a new city. Sadly when I walked in asking for a table for one, the receptionist looked at me like I was sh!t on her shoe. She spoke to the manager/server and they left me waiting for far longer than is normal for a nearly empty restaurant on a weekend night. When it was clear that I wasn't leaving, the manger finally sat me. I felt like he was very bothered and was trying to hide his curt manner, but no not really. I initially ordered the risotto but he made a big deal about how long it took to make because it was made to order. I had already starving and was worried he'd make sure the main dish would take forever. Instead I ordered the the frutti di mare along with a soup for a starter. The squash blossom soup sounded fabulous. I waited close to 10 minutes for the naranjada. The main dish was served about 15 min. after that. I asked him about the soup and he just said 'oh yeah you did order a soup didn't you?' Then he said he'd get it for me, but I said no that I'd wait until after I finished my entrée, to see if I was still hungry. He never apologized and worse tried to bring me the soup no less that 4 times. I finally said NO and he stopped. However the other server brought out the soup as I was still eating my entree. I sent that one back. Both servers were busy with two larger tables and those tables got all of the attention and focus. I felt like the manager's attitude was that I should be happy to get any service at all. There was a panned cotta on the dessert menu that I wanted to try but by the end of my meal I was so angry and frustrated at the crap service that I just paid my bill and left. Side note: the manager/server tried to act nicer when he realized I was American and he tried to be down right charming when he gave me the bill. Like no buddy no amount of smiles and attempts at chatting were going to make the situation better at that point. Overall a disappointing experience.

Excellent food and service, included live music which perfectly set the mood. Location is super random but also works perfectly and feels removed from the normal aesthetic of Guadalajara streets

Great little hidden gem in Tlaquepaque, delicious food, amazing selection of tequilas and libations. Nice courtyard w pool and aqueduct waterfall into ponds w turtles & catfish... it's a nice getaway from the business of the art district. Bartender Chuck is on point! And make sure you check the bathrooms out. Thank you Art for the hospitality and John for the recommendation. The tricky part is you have to use the ringer by the front door under hotel sign to get in restaurant... but you kinda step into another Tlaqueworld.

Although it's inside of a hotel it's nothing like your typical hotel restaurant. It's week decorated and generally comfortable. Whashrooms are very clean. The service is great and the food is SUPREME all very high quality and tasty, portions are generous but not excessive and there is a good variety of options in the menu My only complaint is that the guitarist/singer performing the night's live music act stayed very near our table for our whole meal and did not move around the restaurant (which did not seem to be a designated are for him) and it got very annoying he was very loud and we could bearly hear each other talk (this is not a restaurant for dancing so it SHOULDNT be like this)

The food here is delicious and they have a great bar. The bartender, Charlie, was so fun! Out of all the places that we ate during our stay, this was by far the best! The shrimp risotto is so delicious...and beautiful! They also had a singer one night that we really enjoyed.

Great food. Amazing mix of Italian and Mexican cuisine and the place is besutifully decorated in Tlaquepaque's typical style. From the chairs and servillettes to the paintings on the wall. Fantastic local and craft beers

We ordered Fetuccini Alfredo, Pesto Pasta, and the Aztec Soup. The Alfredo had the perfect amount of sauce and the noodles had a great texture. The Soup had chips and it which were still crunchy not soggy, and the broth was nicely flavored. The Pesto came with a decent amount, was fresh and savory, and had all of the right seasonings. The portions were all a decent size and filled us up very nicely. The service was prompt. They had menus in English and in Spanish. When we asked for a Spanish menu, they brought the whole board to us. The only con would be that the bread came with our main course instead of an appetizer. -Farah, Age 12

We really enjoyed our dinner here. It's inside of a hotel, so we missed it the first night we tried to eat here. We didn't know there was a doorbell that had to be rung to get let inside the building. The door was locked, so we thought it was closed. We had an appetizer, 3 main dishes, 2 iced teas, and 2 alcohol beverages all for $43. Amazing price for such great food! There was a woman with a guitar singing and it added to the romantic vibe. PS - there's a cat that lives (?) at the hotel/restaurant, so it was walking around the tables inside the restaurant and even jumped on a chair at one of the tables. If you're allergic to cats, this might not be the place to go.

My wife, son, mother, and I were staying at the hotel, so we had the pleasure of eating several meals at TlaquePasta. We never had anything at the restaurant that was anything short of exquisite. The pasta, shrimp, and fish dishes are all fantastic. However, my favorite was the rack of lamb where the server, Rafael, poured some liquid fire onto it. It was absolutely delicious as were the pureed potatoes and vegetables that came with it. We also ended up ordering the creme brulee, which they will torch right at your table. Aaron, the restaurant manager was very friendly and pleasant. Also, there is an excellent bar in the restaurant as well stocked with a wide variety of tequila mezcal. The bartender, Charlie, is very funny and has a wealth of information on the tequila and mezcal. The terrific food and drinks in combination with the beautiful atmosphere and pleasant personalities of all of the staff makes this restaurant an exceptional find. If you are in Tlaquepaque, this is a must try!
