One of Regiomontanos (Monterrey natives) favorite place. Well located with good atmosphere, La Nacional serves a wide variety of excellent dishes. We had Chicharron de Rib Eye, Aguachile de Rib Eye, Guacamole and Frijoles con Veneno (Fried beans with venom). Everything was very good and prices were reasonable. Wide variety of national and impoted wine at good price. Service was... More

I am mexican, and the Nacional us all about mexican food. But not only that, it´s also the place where the chefs respect the tradition and the beauty of mexican kitchen. I just have to say that it´s one of the best places in Mexico to try real food. and of course in a really nice environment, The place is... More

Excellent food. The grilled artichoke w/ dipping sauce for leaves was worth coming for even if you eat nothing else! Steaks were excellent & desserts were great too. An equivalent restaurant in USA (both decor/ambience/menu) would be almost twice the price. Highly recommended!

A last minute lunch meeting with clients. A little research on TripAdvisor and next we were on the patio at La Nacional. All I can say is "wow." Great food. Great Service. Up beat crowd. I had a previous favorite lunch place in Monterrey but now it's 2nd. Next time I'm there for dinner as well. Just one more reason... More

Although I live in the USA, I have been eating at La Nacional every time that I am in Monterrey. This is one of the best retauants that I have been to. The atmosphere, the service and the food are first class. The place is very nice decorated with wood paneling, a glass covered smoking area, and beautiful flower arrangements.... More

This is one of the best restaurants in town. Typical food in northeastern Mexico with a gourmet touch. Attention can become cloying. Good atmosphere, in a large place, very crowded due to its success. I recommend the Salt Rib Eye Salt. Authentic and expensive.

The meat is delicious and they have very good starters like the grilled artichoke and guacamole. The service is very good too. Do not miss it if yuo go to Monterrey.

Carne asada (broiled meats) and broiled artichokes to new dimensions. Excellent asparagus salad but the broiled meat covered with sea salt is the best. You have to have a reservation to get a table in this always filled up restaurant that started as a cantina in Monterrey's centre years ago. If you can't get in, go to the original on... More
