Everyone's favorite place to eat in Xilita, La Huastequita offers reassuringly simple, authentic Mexican home-style cooking that'll fill you up after a day clambering up and down forested hills. From the roof terrace there are lovely views over the main square and church. The enchiladas come with a spicy kick.
