Las Mañanitas in Cuernavaca

We have been there on 2 occasions, during our honeymoon in March of 1965, and on our 25th anniversary 1990. Was told it was still open and had to write, as we have beautiful memories of great food and a unique and beautiful place.Now we have been married for 57and a half years and still celebrating life

Really nice place to eat and enjoy the beautiful garden, peacocks and Guacamayas

Las Mañanitas was an enchanting end to a fascinating day in Cuernavaca.If ever there was a story to support the saying of not judging a book by its cover, here you have it.The hectic streets as you move away from the city centre give no indication of this serene garden and delightful atmosphere tucked away down an unassuming side street on the edge of central Cuernavaca!The food is a mix of Western classic dishes and local specialities to cater to the upmarket crowd - I would strongly recommend you stick with the local specialities if your palette is inclined. They are varied, rich and incredibly delicious!The staff are beyond delightful, friendly and very kid friendly, including well versed in English so you have plenty of opportunity to sharpen your Spanish with a forgiving crowd.Take a stroll through the garden while you wait for your meal to be delivered and enjoy a mojito or margarita with the peacocks strolling around you... it is like a step back in time and difficult to truly put words to the full extent of the experience...

I had breakfast. The ambiance was tranquil and gorgeous due to the birds and animals on premises. Service was phenomenal they know hospitality. The food to my liking which Im Mexican was not impressed at all. They brag about their world renoun chefs but yet omelet was bland, 🥞 were too small, and when they get to you are hard. The huevos in cazuela were pretty disgusting 😳 the green sauce over powered everything and was too acidic and thats all I could taste. Maybe this is why they only had 3 tables. Please try the food before you send it to the client. The capuchinos were too weak, no nice presentation. The only good thing was the bread. I spend for breakfast 75 bucks and I will never be coming back (perhaps to snap a quick pic with the birds)

The place is gorgeous. The garden is lovely. The food was amazing, the service was extremely attentive. Definitely a hidden gem.

First class hotel and spa staff is exemplary gardens are beautiful especially the peacocks and flamingos

Excellent food, good ambiance though hostess are really bad. As we arrived we asked for a 4 person table... After a while and several other clients were seated we inquired about our table, the hostess did not added our party in their list. After our reaction to their mistake, a while later we were seated.What fixed our mood was the excellent crooked dishes we got. They were amaizing!!!!

Stunning restaurant in beautiful gardens with peacocks and parrots roaming around. Faultless service, and great food.

Not much to say. Just walk in and let yourself be treated to a most memorable experience. Ate here in 1982, came back last week and it had only gotten better, something I didnt think was possible. Memories old and new. Thank you, Las Mananitas!

Beautiful place to eat at any time of the day, a place where you can enjoy delicious food next to the nature, with very attentive and friendly staff. It is a quick and valuable detour when one goes to Cuernavaca. It is definitely worth the wait, even though it is 100% preferable to make a reservation in advance from their web pages.

Very pretty restaurant, but expensive. The food was great, staff was friendly.

I went to this place I asked for a tea... and they gave me the cheapest tea they sell in Mexico If you wanna go eat at a restaurant do not go to the This place is for tourists.. Thats stay there at that hotel.. Basically cheap food... Recommend Casa manzano

Great food in a nice atmosphere !Took my brother there for his birthday.They brought out a little cheesecake and sang a birthday song. Price wise it was around 1500 pesos including the tip, 4 margaritas and our entrees.

Great place to visit. It really is an eye opening experience. Thank You

Looks nice but the staff is very pretentious and clothing rules seem outdated. They asked us to leave just because we were using shorts…restaurants nearby were happy to have us though! So if you want to eat at an authentic restaurant I’d recommend you to avoid this one.

Gorgeous grounds, incredibly attentive service, delicious food, cozy & clean rooms, beautiful birds, and of course Casimiro the tortoise. Wonderful place!!!

Excellent attention, beautiful place, but the food was horrible!!!! Salty and acid, my expectations were high but they just fail. We claim about one of three meals but the three were horrific. Simple dish, chilaquiles, but executed badly.You eat these in a fonda and you will get better taste.

I find it frustrating and outdated when people try and tell you how to dress up. There is a dress code at this place where women can enter in sandals but men in flip flops cannot.

Very disappointing that they dont have a ramp for wheelchairs. My Dad had to be pushed through the kitchen to get to the restaurant. Unbelievable

This place is unique, you can savor their delicious food while enjoying the wonderful gardens. A great experience in the city of sunshine and spring!

An expensive place that still keeps clothing etiquette for entrance, it was a delight watch how they denied service to a large family of new rich people 🤭.

I was really excited to try the restaurant but the service was horrible and the food was ok. The place itself is pretty but I’m just sooo disappointed with the service and I tried so many times to get their attention to serve me. I feel like the servers were in a bad mood.

Aggressive and offensive behavior from staff. They try to spray strange substances over my body and when I asked about the composition of it they refused our access. This is very sad and bad impression for the tourist visiting town.... please note there are a loot of better places...!

High end restaurant in Cuernavaca. Great staff, and fantastic food. Quiet and relexed atmosphere. You may run into a few local celebrities. Children are welcome, but are expected to be quiet and not move around the grounds unattended.

Food poisoning. Hotel and Gardens are beautiful but i expected more from the restaurant. All that I ordered was a soup and salad. They must not have properly disinfected the lettuce and I was throwing up and sick all weekend. It’s ironic that it was the fanciest place that made me sick 🤕

Extraordinary experience. Every detail, the gorgeous gardens, the art collection in the hallways, the peacocks and parrots...Attentive service and excellent food. Try the “cecina” plate, and the chilaquiles.

Beautiful restaurant with amazing food. The bread, the drinks, the entrées, the service, and the atmosphere were all spectacular. Highly recommend if you’re in Cuernavaca.

I have mixed feelings about this hotel. The property has great potential and it is quite a renowned place in Cuernavaca, but we ran into a couple of issues which makes giving ONLY ONE rate to the place hard. I rather break it up:Accomodations/Room: 3 stars. The room and furniture are quite old and could do some updating. We specially had an issue with the bathtub, I think it must be at least 20 years old, it is soooo small that a person would hardly fit in, plus it looks so old that I don’t think anyone would fancy to get in it; more importantly, the bath curtain had mold, and the space between the window curtain and the bath curtain was so slim NO ONE can have a nice bath in there, specially trying to avoid being touched by it!! Considering what the hotel charges for a night, It makes absolutely no sense. We would definitely not stay the night there again.Restaurant: 4 stars. The food is tasty, it is ok. But, considering the cost I would expect either better more modern presentation, amazing taste, bigger servings or at least exceptional service (service was fine but nothing extraordinary). The house wine was quite good. During the day we ordered cocktails and appetizers in the pool area, and at least the drinks were a bit disappointing, very old fashioned, they were lacking both in presentation and taste.Spa: 4 stars. We only took the complimentary hydrothermal circuit and it was quite nice. The service was really attentive and the facilities were ok. Once again, although everything worked ok, I think the place needs a bit of a makeover.Overall our experience was nice. The 3 star rating has to do mainly to the imbalance of the accommodation price and the room quality, plus the bathroom inconveniences. In the future I would rather visit the place for breakfast+spa or spa+dinner but unless they update the rooms or lower the rate I would not stay there again.

I’ve stayed at this hotel several times when in Cuernavaca on business. The hotel staff, the rooms, the food, and the grounds were all excellent. I recommend Las Mananitas for business and pleasure. When I was not working, I was in heaven.

They have a lovely outdoors garden... Food is overrated... bland and pricey... and to top it off... the valet damaged our car! The valet company, neither the restaurant managment solved the situation. I recommend you go somewhere else. Dont reward this awful place.

Definitely the best part was the mariachi but the service sucks The food is not the greatest especially that we were in a different restaurant earlier the same day which the food was excellent, On the other hands the drinks were not good either, and drinks should be very easy to prepare, When we asked the waiter why the drinks were not that good need he just look at us and walk away without saying anything, price is fair, valet parking is great, the place is very nice, its just the waiters dont care about the service they are providing, this could be one of the best restaurants in Cuernavaca like in the old days, but apparently employees cant see that

Overpriced. Beautiful place but portions too small and quality not great. Service is good. The restaurant has macaws kept captive by breaking their wings. And more wild animals in bad conditions.

Lovely garden and good staff. Fiood was disapointing. Although mens WC was clean, womens was a disaster. Had to escort my wife into mens room do she could use facilities. Good spot for afternoon cocktail.

Great hotel in Mexican luxury style. Gorgeous rooms and fantastic gardens with peacocks running free here and there.The spa is a dream! Take tour time to spend there at least a good 3 hours.Dont miss out on the restaurant which has a nice fancy but chilled atmosphere. The service is unbeatable without feeling overwhelmed.Food quality is top notch and the menu has enough variety to make everyone happy however I suggest the bonemarrow, escamoles, flank steak and mix it up for the best tacos of your life.

Beautiful place with great views and facilities. Rooms are impressive and architecture is fascinating. You can see some birds in the gardens!

Arguably the best restaurant in Cuernavaca. Its been here for more than 50 years. Great service, food, and atmosphere. The gardens are beautiful and the peacocks are fun. (Watch your food.). The prices are high by Mexican standards, but quite reasonable for a good restaurant in the States. The traditional Mexican plate is a good choice.

If you go to Cuernavaca you have to go to this place. Las Mañanitas is in fact a hotel but their restaurant is open to anyone. If you go during the weekend make sure to make a reservation. The food is amazing great selection on the menu. Dont forget to save room for dessert. While you wait for your food you can walk around and take some pictures with the flamingos, peacocks and the birds. One you are dont with your food you can sit down on the are where the piano is and relax while you enjoy a cup of coffee. This place has valet parking.

Excellent service, beautiful place with peacocks, sweet kitty in large garden with pretty fountains.delicious food (a little more salt than I like but its good), I recommend you escargots, cows brain in black butter, all fish are good and if you arent Mexican, you can take the Mexican plate 🍽 because you can taste many samples of Mexican dishes.

I absolutely love the outdoor patio of the Las Mañanitas. Best for a lazy afternoon enjoying the quiet garden with perfect grass and flowers and beautiful rare birds coming up to your table while sipping coffee, tea or wine. As a vegan, I didnt find any food on the menu worth ordering. A little bit pricy but definitely worth it for the piece of paradise they recreate in the middle of the city

Used to be #1 restaurant in Cuernavaca, mainly because of the setting with amazing gardens and its international and Mexican cuisine. But quality and service have diminished over the years and it is now surpassed by other places in town.

So excited to go to Las mananitas on so many positive recommendations. We had a reservation, and came a few minutes early. We were escorted to the beautiful garden. After sitting at a garden table we waited about 10 minutes for someone to take our drink order. 20 minutes later a waiter came back and re-took our order. 8 minutes later we recieved our drinks. We placed our dinner order and were still excited to eat some great food. The food arrived.....avocado soup....good. escargot, was fine. Salad with foie gras was awful. The food was c grade at best. My sons hamburger was terrible. Filet mignon was lacking any seasoning, vegetables we steamed and not seasoned or tossed with butter or oil. Bearnaise was cold and congealed, demi glace was also cold and thick with starch. Seafood pasta.....seafood was overcooked and very much underseasoned. I had much better food and service in the Mercado de abastos.Sad.

Expect a high quality experience when eating and staying at Las Mañanitas. The service is outstanding, and the food is delicious. I would highly recommend trying out of the ordinary delicacies such as the escamoles (ant eggsbelieve me they are extremely tasty!

Beautiful manicured grounds and a local iconic hotel and restaurant that in its day was world class in every regard (70s 80s and 90s). Yes I have been going since 1978. Today (2017its not the same. Food is good - even great in cases but no longer world class and over priced for its quality. The service is good and can be great at times but gone are the days of the slightest gesture illiciting an immediate "como puedo servirle" from the top notch wait staff.Compared to a chain restaurant its a 5 star plus experience but compared to its own past, a 3 is fair to generous.Great for the "been there done that" experience but there are other options in town that are a better high-end value for ongoing/regular customers.

Best Mexican breakfast Ive ever had! The huevos racheros were amazing and the coffe was very nice! Plus the place looks super nice, very colonial mexican hacienda, with some birds walking around and water fountains.

I visited just the garden for the Expo-Mujer event last Thursday. The building is old and well preserved, which gives it an atmosphere from past times. The garden is beautiful and very nice to look at, specially that tall northern wall totally covered by what I think is a species of ivy; cool stuff. They​ have peacocks there as part of the decoration I guess; I believe they treat them well ^^.

Beautiful gardens, amazing food. Came here for a dinner the night before a wedding, and we were treated to amazing views of peacocks and flamingos strutting around a manicured garden backyard, and an amazing 4 course dinner

I visited the Las Mañanitas Restaurante and highly recommend! The environment is beautiful, with very pretty landscaping where you will see and even be greeted by a flamingo or a few, and/or some peacocks! Aside from the many different birds that reside on the property, the menu has many options and the food is very good. The staff are extremely helpful and courteous. Great for groups or a romantic setting!

I assisted to Las Mañanitas for Pixelatls "El Festival" (A conventionand overall my experience was good, the staff was kind and provided you instructions when needed, the valet parking service worked without problems. The gardens were gorgeous, well kept and full of exotic birds roaming freely (wich I loved), I heard from people that stayed overnight that the rooms were incredible and decorated with colonial-style furniture, I did not hear a single complaint about the place. Im looking forward to attend other events at Las Mañanitas.

Luxury place. Environment is fantastic.Large garden and well maintained (why no children play allowed?)Food quality and variety is excellent.Prices are in line with the place.

I felt like James Bond when I went to this restaurant and hotel. It was 1998 and I still remember walking out into the gardens with the peacocks surrounding me like it was yesterday. The food was amazing the best pasta with crème sauce I ever had. The outdoor seating was beautiful and romantic.
