    La Casa de los Milagros

    Legend has it that Pancho Villa and his pals loved this stylish café, and you probably will too. In a beautiful, 110-year-old mansion featuring high ceilings, tiled floors and an airy courtyard, the food, cocktails and ambience all merge into a fantastic evening. The menu features a great selection of coffee drinks, fresh salads, some original antojitos (Mexican snacks), and steaks and chicken for heartier appetites. There’s live music, usually ballads and trova, from 9pm Wednesday to Sunday.

    Botero’s

    Botero’s is brightly contemporary in both its adventurous Chihuahua-meets-Europe cuisine and its bi-level, window-walled design. Steaks, seafood and pasta (in sauces, such as smoked salmon and vodka) head up the menu; lighter options include salads with ingredients such as mango and goat cheese, and some truly tempting tentaciones (temptations). It does a big M$90 breakfast buffet, too.

    Mi Café

    This American-style greasy-spoon diner caters both to travelers and local cowboys, serving up excellent breakfasts and coffee at big, comfy booths. Chilaquiles montados con huevos (corn tortillas with chili and eggs) is great way to start the morning or kick a hangover. Internet access also available.

    La Casona

    The city’s top out-to-dinner experience is at this 19th-century mansion once owned by prerevolutionary potentate Luis Terrazas. Polished waiters in black ties and waistcoats serve up steaks, seafood, pasta and an ample wine list in a fairly formal atmosphere. Breakfasts are great.

    Nutry Vida

    For vegetarians growing tired of cheese, this little natural-foods café and bakery is a welcome stop. You'll find salads, yogurts, veggie burgers (which aren't very good, frankly), fresh-squeezed juices and a variety of whole-wheat baked goods. Eat in or take out.

    Antojitos Pam-Pam

    Nothing fancy, just great home-style cooking, which makes it a favorite with downtown workers at lunchtime. The chile relleno (chili stuffed with meat or cheese, usually fried with egg batter) burritos are delicious and filling.
