We ate here three times on three separate days during our stay in Guanajuato. It's a very simple unpretentious and inexpensive family style restaurant. It's located on a quiet side street just next to the main cathedral. A 4 min walk from Teatro Juarez. The food taste, quality and portions never disappointed. The mole, steaks and sauces were all delicious.... More

I've eaten here three times and each time the food and service was excellent. It is locatedright next to The much praised Truco 7 and in my opinion and several of my friends is better. They have a large menu. My amigo Kent Grey recommends enchiladas mineras

This was the best dining experience I had while on a medical volunteer trip in Guanajuato! It hands down has the best guacamole and margaritas I have ever had! The service was outstanding and the food was delicious! This restaurant is the whole package with great service, cheerful atmosphere, and great food and drinks!

I've been going to Casa Ofelia every year for the past 3 years while in Guanajuato for medical volunteer trips. The guacamole is the best!! Chunky with the perfect amount of cilantro, onion, and lime and served in beautiful dishes. The ingredients are fresh from the nearby market (we saw them unloading all the local ingredients one morning as we... More

What a wonderful restaurant! Inside is bright and cheery, with good spacing of tables, prompt & polite service, and they were easily able to accommodate our larger party. The waitress was extremely pleasant, despite the fact that I was the only one who spoke any Spanish among the 12 of us. The prices were more than fair, the pina coladas... More

Awful, undrinkable coffee. So avoid that at all costs. Apart from that quite decent, nicely mexican. Probably worth a try, the food is quite good and the prices are ok too.

Frankly not as good as we had hoped for. Food is OK and very inexpensive. Convenient location. But the food reminded me of Mexican food you get here in the States. That's not what I went to Guanajuato for.

Casa Ofelia is conveniently located around the corner from the Basilica. We were seated and waited on immediately. Decor was bright, cheery. So far this is the only place we have found Bohemia beer. The chile relleno is served with rice and beans, all excellent, no leftovers. The enchiladas tricolores, a plate of enchiladas with 3 very different sauces, was... More
