Things to do in Ajijic

  1. Ajijic Tango

    You’ll dine on exceptional Argentine food at unbelievable prices at Tango, Ajijic’s most beloved restaurant. The intimately lit indoor-outdoor dining room is always packed with locals and travelers alike dining on huge, mind-blowingly tender cuts of beef and piles of perfect French fries doused with chimichurri (a parsley–olive oil sauce). The wood-fired pizzas look appealing on paper, but don’t get distracted: order the steak.

  2. Number 4

    This new upscale Mediterranean place has been generating buzz all the way to Guadalajara. Kenyan-Canadian chef Ismat Jivani’s menu borrows flavors from across the globe, from house-made pasta to Moroccan-spiced lamb. The open-air dining room, with a high thatched roof, has a theatrical elegance; the attached bar is the area’s hippest.

  3. Café Grano

    The smell of roasting organic coffee will soothe your soul and your conscience too because only organic, free-trade beans from Chiapas are roasted and ground here.

  4. Tom’s Bar

    Belly up to this fine knotted-wood bar to sip beer, watch a ball game or chat with quirky expats. It’s American-owned and serves a damn good burger.
