We happened upon Cafe Rama one afternoon and wish we would have discovered it sooner! Good food, a nice atmosphere and an excellent location make this a great choice for lunch or dinner. It's casual and charming. Highly recommended!

For me this restaurant hits on all cylinders. It's intimate (though expanding, each room is keeping the small, homey feel), but a big enough menu that I can always find something wonderful to eat. Once i asked for an all veggie plate and it was amazing. . And not on the menu. The asparagus appetizer w reduced balsamic, tomatoes and... More

My wife and I ate at Cafe Rama and loved it. She had Salmon and I had the Lamb Chop special with garlic mash potatoes. I was served five small chops that were delicious, well seasoned and done perfectly. I would go back again and highly recommend.

On a recent visit to San Miguel de Allende, the colonial jewel in the state of Guanajuato Mexico I happened upon the restaurant Cafe Rama. This charming establishment is situated on a lovely tree lined street called Calle Nueva close to the Rosewood Hotel. We had a wonderful meal and superb cocktails. The service was of the highest quality and... More

Original menu with plenty of choices for vegetarians (me) and carnivores. I live in San Miguel and this is one of my favorite restaurants. Never have been disappointed. We went on a week night and most of the tables were full, which is saying something positive because this is slow season in San Miguel and many of the restaurants are... More

Funky decor, fantastic art, wonderful music, and oh yes, terrific food. After a long hot walk the perfectly piquant limonada disappeared quickly...lots of vegetarian options on the menu...and they make great coffee too.

We ate here twice - once for lunch and once for dinner. The food is quite good, without a doubt. The atmosphere is terrific - you're greeted by a combination of great looking baked goods and funky art! But at lunch the service was very slow - despite not being terribly busy. (I mean SLOW even for Mexico!) And when... More

Stopping into Cafe Rama for lunch or late dinner, is always a delightful and warm experience and soothing to the soul. The classical music immediately puts one into an elevated spirit, and the eclectic art work and quirky decoration lets you know that you have walked into a very special place. Knowing that whatever you order is going to be... More
