Trazo 1810

Beautiful rooftop restaurant in the heart of San Miguel's historic centro. We were hungry after walking around centro and my neice found this restaurant on Google. It was late, but they were open and they graciously seated us even though I felt we were a little underdressed and we didn't have reservations. The service was excellent. Our server brought us bread, quickly brought us drinks, and checked on us throughout the meal. The food was excellent. I had the mushroom pasta, my brother had the shrimp risotto, and my neice had the grilled chicken with polenta. Each meal was beautifully presented and tasted delicious. We were all very pleased.

Awesome Terrace to have dinner and some awesome cocktails! Food was delicious, service was great, and beautiful views on a nice rooftop terrace with heaters and they will bring you a blanket if you would like! Had a great time here and would recommend the smoked cocktail for sure!

Top notch service. Beautiful views. Lovely Presentation. Delicious dessert.

We were so excited to try Trazo 1810 based on online reviews and the hotel recommendation. And while the service was outstanding and attentive, and the dining environment nice, the food was undercooked and over-sauced to the point of being inedible. Both the pork and beef entrees had the same complex flavor profiles that buried the quality of the meat completely. Besides the flavors also not being compatible, the temperature of the meat was not as ordered. The request was medium, which typically indicates warm pink center. The meat was rare at best. Sometimes a simple, straight forward dish is better when it comes to preparing meat. The staff was incredibly accommodating and went beyond to make it a pleasant experience. We are seasoned global travelers both with work and in our personal lives and have eaten at many Michelin rated restaurants. So while that was not our expectation, we feel like we have a foundation of what a good meal should aspire to be. We gave 3 total stars because the service was extraordinary. We probably will not go back, but perhaps if you are considering trying Trazo 1810 take a look at the reviews and try some of the meals that others enjoyed over the meat dishes with sauces.

Excellent restaurant. The rooftop has very nice views of the city, the main indoor restaurant is very well decorated and comfortable. I had the Short Rib and Tres Leches for desert and both were delicious. Don’t pass on the opportunity to dine here.

Located in Casa 181, Trazo 1810 is a great hidden gem. The chefs are very creative and playful with their dishes. Ranging from how they plate their food to the intent with the ingredients they use for certain dishes and cocktails. Most of their plates are on the smaller side for some so keep that in mind when ordering. The staff were kind but not as attentive. The view of the cathedral and the rest of San Miguel is excellent from the rooftop while you dine. Trazo is constantly exploring new recipes therefore the images included on this review will most likely no longer exist on their menu. Siguen con el buen trabajo. La comida fue excelente. Muchas Gracias.

Great rooftoop with good view. We had dinner and it was good but not as expected. Lamb is very tasty. Catch of the day is a bit dry, it lacks sauce. Pork is quite fat. All plates lacks vegetables (very small portion)

Trazo 1810’s rooftop dining is not to be missed. The view of the Parroquia and the surrounding churches is amazing. We had heard that the food was hit and Miss, but ours was definitely a hit. Our waiter Gustavo suggested several menu items and each was delicious.

Trazo 1810 has a beautiful rooftop restaurant located within a block of the central square. I ordered the enmoladas and a cappuccino. The enmoladas were basic but well executed and my cappuccino was perfect! 3 out of 6 in our party got the croque madam and all of them joined the clean plate club.

Came to Trazo 1810 for a nicer dinner on Thanksgiving. The rooftop views were stunning!! Service was attentive and the food was overall very good (although on the pricier side). Dishes I'd order again: - Mini corn: I actually thought these mini elotes were better than the actual elote I had from a street cart while in San Miguel. Overall just very flavorful and there's a good amount of sauce. - The short rib: This was soo good. Well cooked with that fall-off-the-bone texture. Would definitely recommend this. - Mushroom risotto: Not the best risotto I've ever had, but certainly very tasty!! Definitely better than the gnocchi. - Gyozas: I liked these, but I wouldn't say they are a must. Dishes I'd skip next time: - Tuna tostada: This was too sweet for my liking. The bone marrow it comes with is an interesting pairing (but didn't make much sense to me) - The gnocchi: We actually sent this dish back as we really didn't like it. The gnocchi itself was a bit overcooked and the flavors in the sauce didn't work for me. The manager graciously replaced this dish for the mushroom risotto (which was much better). Overall, this rooftop view is really impressive, and it's definitely worth grabbing a drink up there (at a minimum)! Plus, they have blankets and heaters for when it's cold.

Beautiful rooftop restaurant with amazing views of the city. Our service was good but not great. He was VERY attentive but hovered and we felt rushed. I think he thought he was giving good service but there is no need to constantly try and move us on to the next course as we are finishing the last one. When we asked about dessert, he said they had chocolate cake. We had to ask about the other items we had seen on the menu. Why not just bring back the menu so we can order dessert from the full list? When asked, yes everything was available. It just felt rushed. Our food was very good. The cheese/fruit plate was huge. The beet and goat cheese salad was very good. I really liked the golden beets. My husband enjoyed the lamb tortellini which was a good main course after he had a LOT of cheese for an appetizer. My mahi mahi was good but the presentation was a little over the top "foodie". Everything doesn't need to be so overly designed. It said it came with beans but it was a VERY minimal amount of beans. There was one tiny spear of something - I can't even remember what because it was a toothpick size. For dessert we got the chocolate since that's all he told us about. It was Cardamom and chocolate dolly cake, dark chocolate gelato, seasonal jam. It was good! This restaurant thinks they are fancy and the setting is but the food needs to be a little less deconstructed (see the photo of the chocolate dessert, beet salad and mahi mahi main course). The food was good but not WOW. We would recommend this place for the view and solid food.

This place is definitely an amazing vibe when in town! I came here for a special dinner for an amazing friend while in town on a bachelorette trip. I really love the atmosphere and the details and everything from there music to the lighting, to the menu. This is a Mediterranean restaurant and had a very interesting menu. When I saw the octopus on the menu I immediately jumped on it! I was not let down, it came with a smoky tahini sauce and arugula. The octopus was perfectly tender and cooked to perfection and paired very well with the tahini and arugula. I had an amazing and refreshing watermelon Mezcal drink and I was not disappointed. The rooftop seating allows a perfect view of the city and an amazing sight of nearby churches. Someone in our group got the fettuccine plate with a salted egg yolk and they were pleased. Another person got the pork chops and was exceptionally pleased. There was the mahi-mahi dish which I heard was also exceptionally well. There was also a pumpkin ravioli with a ginger foam which from my understanding did not go off very well. Overall I was very pleased by this establishment and I feel that they did a great job at hosting a special dinner for a special person.

Such a stunning rooftop restaurant located on top of Hotel Casa 1810. Me and some friends grabbed dinner here while in town for a friend's wedding. The weather was chilly and to our surprise the restaurant provided nice blankets to keep us warm as we dined in. The rooftop area also has heaters if you are one of those that are always cold. The food was great and sine the restaurant was on the rooftop we were able to catch beautiful views of the sunset and the gorgeous town of San Miguel.

A new style of hotel/restaurant has come to SMA over the last decade. Hip, chic, modern is in. Often there will be art displayed or for sale on the ground floor. Lodging is the next level up and on the rooftop there will be an open air restaurant. Such is the case for Trazo 1810. Liked: lovely views of the city and the churches. Novel dishes on the menu. My wife had the gnocchi and said it was great. Could've been better: we had to be "announced" by the front desk before entering the restaurant. Say what? I thought we had one of the least desirable tables, located at the very top of the entrance stairs near the service desk. As our waiter explained, there are only two choices for a glass of wine available. There is a lengthy wine list, but apparently nearly all of these are only sold by the bottle. I did like the Tempranillo from Spain, which was sold by the glass. The music was either hip-hop or some other genre that I can't define. Didn't care for it. Disliked: I ordered the pork cheek dish with Pepita sauce. While the food tasted good, I was shocked to find a stone about the size of a tooth on the plate buried in the sauce. Fortunately, I didn't break a tooth. I did mention it to our waiter who said he would take this up with the chef. Never heard another word from either of them about it. Inappropriate and very disappointing!

I strongly recommend you enjoy a meal at the lovely Trazo 1810. The cocktails and wine selections are superb! The natural, fresh ingredients are delicious. I had no problem eating vegetarian appetizers and main entree! I apparently have to go back for the baby corn salad. My waiter recommended. The service was phenomenal. Even with a big party, or several, they were so polite and perfectly attentive. I'll post photos of our mains. The appetizer didn't get enough time for the photo shoot! We had the hummus and veggies. By the way, order artichoke while here or any restaurant in SMDA, they are so dang good. You won't be chilly! They offer blankets and heaters!

Impecable service and food. I was shocked to see there were reviews claiming service was not what we experienced which was extremely kind and attentive staff. We are staying here at 1810 so breakfast is complimentary and we were blown away by how delicious and beautiful each dish was. Our favorites were the chilaquiles, vegetarian omelette & French toast. We've loved the food so much we also had lunch and ordered the Wagyu short rib - & wow so yummy! They have a unique take on common dishes and although they are higher prices for Mexico, it's well worth it!

Trazo had a limited size menu by the time I went for lunch with my partner, but the food was still delicious. We had the SEASONAL FRUIT and the CHILAQUILES with MARROW. Beautiful views, friendly staff, and good food. ENJOY!

Very, very disappointed! We moved here recently and was recommended by friends. We were placed by a station where the staff stacked empty plates. We asked them them to remove it which they did. Started with cocktails, they were fine. We ordered 2 appetizers which were ok at best, the Burrata cheese which was hidden behind all this salad which was tasty and their gyozas. We ordered a steak to share but it was so raw as we ordered medium rare but that piece came straight out of refrigerator that it was barely flamed. They brought a hot skillet to try to cook it but we took it home. We also ordered the mushroom risotto that was gummy and cold as well as an order of french fries that were cold and by the time they came back with a new order we were done. So they went to waste We ordered champagne and not once did they even service us after they opened the bottle. We ordered two desserts and they were bad, the crème brûlée, tres leches, and the chef made a special one for us, all bad. We ordered coffees with baileys and they were fine. We were disappointed so asked to speak to the manager and sommelier. I told them of our experience and they were very nice. They offered us options. I respectfully DECLINED. I paid the bill and tipped 20%. I told them, we are not looking for a free meal. We will give them another try but they are one of the most expensive restaurants in SMA. I BELIEVE IN KARMA.

The service is horrible and the staff don't care. We waited 20 minutes to get our water, asked again and it still didn't come so we got up and left.

Absolutely best meal and time in SMA - attentive waiter, every bite a dream, rooftop beats all the others by far!

Gorgeous rooftop restaurant. Good food, some really excellent (the pear and Serrano ham risotto was extraordinary), but marred by very very slow service. Dinner took 3 hours, 1 hour of which was with nothing in front of us. No water, no napkins, no silverware. The waiter did not have his head in the game at all.

The prices are high so we enjoyed the sunset and only order a glass of wine The wine was very good The view amazing And they give you blankets We ended up here at end of our day and walked over 10 miles exploring alL of San Miguel Allende

Excellent venue, excellent menu and service. At the price of course. Had the beet salad, elegant.

Food and service A-. Delicious and interesting food and a good value. Rooftop view I would say is a B-. It's a decent view (obstructed in some places) but not a knock-your-socks-off view. If it's windy up top they do have seating the level below which includes a cozy fireplace. Location is central and you can see in all directions. Hotel downstairs looks awesome.

Ten years as a food writer and restaurant critic for Ohio's largest daily newspaper makes me cautious to review places. Most are well intentioned and hard working places that serve a place to their communities. Trazo rates absolute top of my list in San Miguel. The food is trendy without trying. The flavors are spot on and the service impeccable. The menu is broad enough to satisfy most. The daily I worked for made us visit three times before commenting on the meals. Today, was the first visit, but I am sold and can't wait to return over and over. We are back to the frigid weather on Sunday but I hope to make one more visit before leaving. I expect Trazo 1810 to be numero uno on Yelp soon. If not, it is a miscarriage of justice.

One of the more expensive places that we have been, but totally worth an evening out. Great drinks and big wine selection. The appetizers are worth the price and delightful in flavor and not big in size. Table comes with Rosemary bread and a terrific side oil based salsa. Dinner is outstanding a five star tasteful event!

We had dinner on the beautiful rooftop. The 360 degree views were amazing. The food was very good and just the right portion to keep room for dessert.

First time visit. Great location in Hotel 1820. Lovely view and design. Food and menu unusual. No specifically Mexican items though lots of local ingredients, as chef Allen explained. Short menu, but good choices of meat, fish, etc. I had a delicious rum drink before dinner, though I usually don't drink mixed drinks. Wine by the glass menu boring - didn't check wine list. Octopus interesting but a bit bland. Waiter talked me out of rabbit risotto. Wonder if I should have tried it? Wife had salmon and shrimp (shared 2 dinners with friend). Somewhat subtle seasoning. Banana dessert delicious- chocolate less so. All food plated beautifully - perhaps a bit too precious? Excellent service by Jesús. I give it 4 stars because: 1. Need to try again 2. Quite expensive. $100 US plus tip (without bottle of wine) is top end here, and should be almost perfection. Not there yet, but who knows?

Looks great, awesome view. Mediocre food. Terrible service. Ordered 4 drinks, 3 came after a long wait. 4th arrived with all the appetizers except one. Waiter brought the check, explained that gratuity was included, BUT he preferred his tip in cash rather than on a credit card! Lock the doors and turn out the lights!

Reviewers Ralph M., James K., L.A., and Elizabeth G.: thank you for your reviews. You convinced us to try Trazo 1810 and it turned out to be everything you said and more. When a restaurant is consistently great, you have a culinary gem. My husband and I have been coming to San Miguel for 20 years and this is one of the best restaurants we've had the pleasure to try. The food was delicious and beautifully presented, the ambiance is elegant but not at all stuffy, the staff is attentive and knowledgeable. We can't wait to come back.

The setting is so beautiful, we had a great view of San Miguel's three main churches. Sitting outside feels extra safe in these times. The staff were polite and of course masked and shielded. The food was great-- beetroot salad so yummy and the chocolate dessert was heaven. I wish the music had been a little quieter. Overall a great evening. My new favorite restaurant.

Absolutely incredible food and even better service!! Be sure and ask for Martin~ best waiter around. Incredible view on the roof and excellent selection of tequila & mezcal.

Went here for dinner. Up on the third floor of the 1810 casa hotel. Great food very original presentation. Good service and great view. Definitely recommend it.

I'm an artist and was blown away by the presentation. Then I got to the food. Incredible! We were only in town 3 days but had to have dinner there twice.

I have been to Micheline restaurants in NYC and SanFrancisco, but this is the first time I am so satisfied with the taste of the food. And the price per food quality is absolutely worth it. The rooftop view is stunningly beautiful plus good service. You don't want to miss this restaurant.

Absolutely amazing food and incredible service. The restaurant is small and just gorgeous. The ambiance is impeccable. There were 4 people in our group and we each tried different things. I had the octopus salad to start and can't stop thinking about it. It was so unusual and the flavors were incredible. The suckling pig was my main course and it was as good as anything that I ever had in Spain. So many great things on the menu and everyone in my party was thrilled with their selections. You really need to come here!

There's places to eat, restaurants with very good food but this place is to detail, atmosphere, Food, service, creations which I'll named culinary Art. The chef Alan Careas how works with one of the best chefs of the world Martin Berasategi have impressed us from A to Z

Very cool, romantic spot. Excellent food--the salmon dish is amazing--and great service. Not as pricey as son of the other high end places in town but the quality of the food is on par. Highly recommended!

I had a fantastic meal here during sunset with my date. The food was creative and delicious. The ambiance and service were superb. We sat on the terrace which had a 360 view of the historic center. The price of this restaurant should be $$$ not $$ though. If you're traveling on a budget I wouldn't recommend it.

Love this place! Gorgeous rooftop patio with fine assortment of cuisine. We enjoyed the quinoa salad and grilled salmon. Small portions leave you room to walk the plaza and enjoy some dessert! Wonderful service with live music most nights. Beautiful, soft lighting on patio and soft blankets on the back of chairs in case you get a chill. Just lovely!

This is by no means a traditional Mexican experience but the food was very good. We had the shrimp risotto and the roasted chicken. They were both fantastic. The risotto was just a little cold on the outside. The service was great, kudos to the chef. We were there on a rainy night so the view and experience might have been better on a dry day but still loved the ambiance. I would recommend it for anyone who is looking for a nice dinner and not for a local/traditional experience.

I have been visiting SME for five days and have had some great meals. I was lucky to save the best for last with my dinner at Trazo 1810. At dinner we ordered three appetizers and we were lucky enough to have Chef Alan describe each dish in detail. The plate presentation and design was not only visually thoughtful but each dish had a clear inspiration. Our main dishes were just as inspired, in particular the shrimp risotto. It was designed to look like coral! Every single ingredient of the dish has a unique flavor to contribute. What stood out the most was the spectacular and surprising flavors! Each dish has local spices and profiles that were unexpected and really memorable. I could go on and on but you must experience it for yourself. Chef Alan is a tremendous talent, the service and atmosphere is top notch. A MUST visit.

Definitely the best restaurant in SMA! We ended up here for lunch and came back for dinner. The service was amazing and the waiter even knew quite a bit about wine. The grilled octopus was amazing!! I would recommend anything on the menu. We were a party of 4 and tried almost everything.

Has only been open about 6 months. I'll bet it will soon be considered among the best restaurants in SMA. The. Food was extraordinary,original and delicious. Ambiance and service was great. Our waiter joked that he would jump off the balcony if we didn't love our meal. He has nothing to worry about.
