Casa Hidalgo

Cuernavaca


Directly opposite the Palacio de Cortés, with a great terrace and upstairs balcony, this popular restaurant attracts a well-heeled crowd of local socialites. The menu is eclectic – try cold mango-agave soup with jicama, or tlaxcalteca chicken breast stuffed with cheese and poblano pepper with three salsas. There are breakfast and lunch set menus, vegetarian choices and a kids' menu.
