Great food in a very pleasant secluded area. The parking is easy with secure valet service for 40 pesos, and sitting aside the garden is great. The service was not super great for the quality of the restaurant, but they were nice and helpful when requested.

If I have one feedback it is that the portions are HUGE! So maybe make smaller plates and smaller prices. Regarding the food it's ok. I edited Fine Dining Restaurant to Mexican Restaurant, could be "ethnic".

This is a hidden gem. They have a very nice view of the church on top of the pyramid. The view is stunning especially at night when the church’s lights are lit. The servers are very friendly. The food is awesome. Don’t be fooled when they say that portions are small because it’s big servings. They have cute cockatiels that will welcome you when you enter the place.

If you come to Cholula you have to come to this restaurant! Everything was great, the traditional Mexican food to the scenery of the restaurant, it has a relaxing atmosphere, waiters are so kind so is the attention. Every dish is so delicious, you can taste the richness even from just seeing it; and it ain't expensive. I really recommend trying this restaurant.

A very pleasant experience. Need to book in advance as it’s a bit of a speakeasy during these times. Service was excellent, food was very tasty and regional & the ambience delightful for any lunch time. The beef with chile “tatemado” crust was exquisite and delightfully cooked to perfection. Name’s reputation really holds up.

Beautiful Cholula Puebla Restaurant, with a gorgeous garden. The parot that lives in the garden is very happy to whistle and has lots to say. Food presentation was lovely, and very delicious. Serving size to U.S. standards might seem smaller than desired, but it was satisfactory. I would definitely return, and hopefully early enough to secure outdoor seating.

Jazz club
The Jazzatlan club in Cholula offers live jazz and world music every night of the week, making it a great spot to enjoy some amazing music while enjoying good food and drinks. This establishment is perfect for friends and family, as well as lovers looking to have a romantic evening out.
Great place to have a wonderful dinner and a date with friends or family. The place has a variety of shows like jazz and flamenco. The food and the drinks are very good and the people that work there are very friendly.

Great place to spend the night. Live music band. Great mix of cocktail and drinks. The ambiance was great. Worth for a night out. We did not eat, so not sure about the food. A cocktail costs under 200 pesos on average. Service was good and friendly. Bathrooms clean. Located in the center ish of Cholula.

We had a wonderful time hanging out at the Jazzatlan club. The club is beautiful the views of the churches are amazing. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and super cool. The drinks were amazing and the entertainment was very good. The service was top notch. They gave us great attention. The bathrooms were very clean. My only complaints would be our food showed up before our drinks which was a slight bummer. I also don't know if I would actually eat at the jazzatlan club again. We had the coconut shrimp and it wasn't good at all it was overcooked and tasted like flour. The mango sauce was flavorless and more like jello than sauce. The fondue was ok. We also ordered a jazz burger and it was flavorless, pale in color, and tough. It doesn't seem like it's cooked on a grill and the patty seemed like a pre-made frozen patty from the grocery store. We will definitely be back for drinks and music but not to eat. All in all a great place to hang out and have drinks.

The restaurant OCHO30 in Cholula features some of the best pizza, salads, and snacks in the city. Some of their popular toppings include sauteed onion, crispy bacon, and spanish or BBQ chicken with corn, mozzarella cheese, provolone cheese, and pickled red onions.
What an amazing place in Cholula. The garden style indoor seating is a delightful place to have lunch before seeing the Pyramid. The service was friendly, attentive and lacked for nothing. The food is delicious and the mezcal cocktails are amazing! Highly recommended!

This place used to be one of my favorite restaurants in Cholula. But, after two years living abroad, I came back with enthusiasm to get an amazing pizza here just to experience a terrible disappointment. My mom and I, ordered a salad and a pizza to share: the coco coco salad and and half/half pizza Los enamorados and other one underneath that one in the menu. We were very hungry and we waited around 30 min to be served. When the pizza comes it wasn’t pretty much looking like in the past, when I remember, was abundant. Salad was small though and the ingredients weren’t fresh. But the worst was the pizza. The pizza wasn’t cooked and I even could felt the raw dough between my teeth. I told my mom but she’s always ashamed to say something and she said, just eat it. But I couldn’t it was terrible, but she finished it. So i requested the bill and I told the staff about the experience, they of course told me that I should said something before, and they brought me the bill. When the time to pay came, the apologized and took the pizza off of the bill, such I appreciate because it was awful. I am grateful about that but I am extremely disappointed about the low quality that the restaurant has been became.

The food, the service and the ambiance are great. This is one of the first places that had a very hipster/Mexican concept with cuisine fusion, so it’s worth checking out, especially since it’s kept its quality and standards. It’s about 200-300MXN per person, depending on the drinks and dishes that your order

We ate at the restaurant, it's beautiful, pizza was good, esquites meh, escargots good, pecan pie was great but ice cream was rock solid, we had to ask the waiter to melt it a bit and for some weird reason salt shaker was not in the table we had to ask for it and the waiter brought it then he took it away so we had to ask again for it...

From A To Z salad is the best. Way better than the chingona. The snails should be removed from menu, very dry. The huge wooden dessert menu is not practical. But the desserts themselves are good.

Magic place in San Andres Cholula, an old building made modern, great service and quality of food. They even have their own beer. The menu is very diverse, from pizza to tlayudas to falafel. They have inside tables and terrace. Very recommended
Javier Aviles Chico — Google review
It's a nice place but not what it used to be. The food arrived late and half of us were finished before the rest of the food arrived. The portion was really small too, so I can't really recommend it anymore. Sad.
Mark Runciman — Google review
It's unfortunate, because this place seemed very promising... Craft beer: they have a house blonde with ginger, it's mediocre. There are a few other craft options which are decent, get the Scottish Ale. Pizza: We got the pesto, and it was pretty unfortunate. The pesto itself is excessively greasy, and has no fresh basil flavor, it is brownish grey. Are they using dry basil? It is a really poor pesto. The nuts were nice, but a bit heavy, I'd reduce them by half. Cherry tomatoes are a good idea because they're still sweet out of season, but they need more time in the oven. The crust is woefully undercooked and soggy. A thin pub style pizza crust needs to support the toppings, it shouldn't flop like a New York slice. You need higher protein flour, and you need to work the dough a LOT more. I cannot believe that the pizza has good reviews here, because this is a truly bad crust that needs a total rework, as does the pesto. Fallafel "taco" : not really a taco, but more of a Fallafel wrap. Nothing particularly good or bad, the Fallafel isn't particularly good, it's a bit dry and needs some fresh herbs (badly), but it's a lot better than the pizza. I don't know, we really wanted to like this place but I cannot recommend it. Will eventually return and try a sandwich or a salad. Very friendly service but took 15 minutes to take our order.

Friday night: We had double date dinner with friends. Saturday evening we came back with our girls. This is a lovely and unique place, loved the original pizzas, thin, crusty and full of flavours, you name it, they have it all. We also loved the salads, drinks and desserts. Just take a pick at the photos, once you enter, you wil want to come back :) Family G

I went to other ocho30 for breakfast several times and believe that they serve quite good breakfast dishes (if you choose a right one for you). This time I went there for a nice lunch, but was disappointed. Yes, the ingredients they use are fresh, but the portion size at the price they offer is too small, so that one regular person won't be even half full if eats one meal. Plus for the birthday child they give a smallest cake pop ever, which we were asking for three or four times. Very stingy.

Maybe the best burger and sandwich I have ever enjoyed in my life. Had to go there the next day again .... it was even more delicious. Perfectly composed and prepared. The chef really knows what s/he does. Highly recommended. I would even say: a must go. Definitely THE highlight in Cholula for us. And the stuff is super nice as well.

This place is NEXT LEVEL! I’m so pleased to have found such a great vegan restaurant in Cholula. Went in a group of 4 and everything we had was absolutely amazing. I love that they make pretty much everything in-house and are super environmentally conscious. As for the ambiance, the restaurant is bright and spacious and there’s outdoor seating in the patio area. Service was friendly and efficient. I recommend this place enough, to vegans and non-vegans alike. I would go back in a heartbeat!
Giuliana Almada — Google review
Damn, this is by far the best vegan restaurant I’ve been to and the best food so far in Mexico. The place has it all too, chill music and nice staff, cosy interiors and atmosphere. I’d really recommend the the Azteka soup and the Verde sandwich. Tastiest sandwich I’ve ever had, and I went back the next day to eat it again. It was that good. 💯

Gru Grú is a sushi restaurant that is both fun and pet-friendly. They use less traditional methods of sushi eating, allowing you to enjoy the meal using your hands. Their mission is to create the smallest environmental impact while offering an enjoyable environment for their guests. Everything they serve is delicious, making it a great choice for food lovers of all levels of expertise. The atmosphere at Gru Grú is cozy and inviting, with gently flowing music keeping conversation at a manageable level.
This is a nice little sushi place located in the beautiful center of Cholula. The sushi is great with a good selection. I especially like their cones. I'll try the sashimi next time. More importantly, this is a sushi bar with a conscience! They do not serve tuna and paper waste is completely minimized - and chopsticks upon request only! I appreciated their environmental consciousness. The owner is a great guy, educated in England, and we had a nice chat, despite how busy they were. I definitely will add this bar to my regulars.

(Translated by Google) The place is super quiet and very beautiful. I went when there were no people so it was like this throughout my stay. The food is very delicious, since it changes the concept of traditional sushi a little. The packages are the ones I recommend the most and they give you a variety of everything they have. Price quality. (Original) El lugar es súper tranquilo y muy bonito. Yo fui cuando no había gente por lo que estuvo así en toda mi estancia.
