Restaurant El Principal Del Blanquillo

On our last day in Mexico, after searching for a place to eat a good rib-eye steak, we finally found a restaurant that offered what we were looking for. We ordered two rib-eye steaks, one medium rare and the other well-done. The exquisite seasoning of the meat was perfect, and the cooking was perfect, the steak was accompanied by some grilled onions and we ordered a side of fresh guacamole to pair the steak. Also, they offered 4 kinds of salsas, the one made on the molcajete was my favorite. Upon taking our order, they brought us a giant toasted flour tortilla as a plate, and on top of it, we had some traditional “gorditas de manteca”. Our drinks were a local beer and exquisite coffee. The service was very good and pleasant; we felt very welcome. The waiters were constantly checking in to ask if everything was okay even though the place was packed. The food was pricey, but the excellent service was worth it. For travelers visiting Nuevo Leon, Mexico, I recommend stopping by the restaurant; you'll be impressed and have a wonderful experience. 100% recommended.

Amazing Place! It’s a bit far from Monterrey downtown but it is so worth the drive!!! We came from brunch my brother and I and what a delicious experience we had. The wait staff is attentive, quick and super friendly. As son as you sit at the table they bring you this massive crispy white tortillas, with other corn gorditas. We ordered their Fijoles con Veneno, it was to die for! My plate was very well served, big portions. I definitely recommend this place!!!

Eat here too. Across. The street from an old friend. Gil

Excellent service-the waiters and staff were in tune to every need (even just to help me charge my phone). The restaurant has a good ambience for fine dining and large groups. The menu is strictly Norteño, but the chefs do a good job.

Excellent food. Good service. Great atmosphere. Well worth an afternoon drive out from the city. We enjoyed ourselves a lot.

The food was delicious and the salsa was excellent.

Very upscale restaurant and excellent typical food from Monterrey. Machacado is a must.

Great family place in Allende. Good food, and not too expensive.

Best place for a traditional mexican plates for breakfast and dinner

Un lugar muy confortable para comer la carne si te la dan en el punto que la pides tienen buenas entradas, eso si lo único que se recomienda es no llegar con mucha hambre porque si hay gente si es un poco tardado

La comida fue excelente; al llegar, nos ofrecieron unas tostadas y gorditas deliciosas, acompañadas de una salsa bastante picante, ideal para quienes disfrutan de ese sabor. Los platillos principales, como el machacado, los chilaquiles, el asado y la carne, fueron una elección acertada y de gran calidad. El servicio también fue impecable, lo que justifica plenamente los precios.

Imperdible si vienes a Monterrey, con el sabor y tradición de la gastronomía local. Excelentes ingredientes y atención. No dejes de probar su salsa de piquín en molcajete.

Todos los platillos son una delicia, te reciben con unas gorditas y una tostada de harina gigante y una salsa de chile piquín muy buena, los meseros siempre al pendiente aunque no sea el que te atiende desde el principio, nos tocó solo 10 minutos de espera pero eso no fué para nada mal Hablando de los guisos, pedimos asado de puerco, machacado con papas, chilaquiles verdes y yo el imperdible machacado con huevo ranchero, realmente una delicia. Lo recomiendo ampliamente!
