Great food. Ordered the waffles, cafe de olla, eggs and an apple/ginger drink. Atmosphere is nice. I had a view of the cathedral that is across the street.

Stunning all around, humble, beautiful and tasty. Ordering the Chilaquiles del Anafre con Arrachera was perhaps one the best decisions I have made this week. The chunks of steak- perfect and juicy, habanero in the sauce- distinct flavorful and subtle, chips- crispy and fresh. Every element world class. Excellent service. We ate breakfast here yesterday, one of the only establishments that opened early enough for us. My omelette was just as good.

The food is delicious, mostly from Puebla but the menu also includes other kind of Mexican food, very well prepare and in creative styles. The environment is very comfortable and sophisticated. And it is in a great location in the center of the city. Finally, it has very economic prices for what you receive. Expect a bill of no more than US25 for two people with drinks (non-alcohol), appetizers, soup and main dishes.

This restaurant is part of the Hotel El Senorial (which is also a great option if you'd like to stay in the historic district of Puebla). We ate here 3 times and every time was a delightful experience, the chef here delivers a combination of deliciousness and beauty in his/her dishes. We just couldn't help coming back. The waiters and waitresses were also super friendly and attentive. All in all, if you are in the area, "El Anafre Rojo" will not disappoint, just drop by, no need for reservations (at least we didn't need any).
