EL MANANTIAL

When you step through the sturdy wooden doors of this traditional cantina , you're not just entering a restaurant, but also San Miguel's rich past. Founded in 1920, its real transformation came in 1945 under the aegis of an avant-garde couple. Despite conventions forbidding women in these spaces, the intrepid Doña Manuela reigned supreme, offering a distinctive absinthe drink. From the pastor fish taco to the octopus carpaccio, not forgetting the seafood tostadas , each plate is a hymn to the delights of the sea.
