The restaurant and bar of Cuernavaca’s most famous hotel, Las Mañanitas, is a luxurious splurge that's open to all. The expansive menu has a heavy French accent, with dishes such as entrecôte Bourguignon and sumptuous desserts. Traditional dishes include maguey grubs. Reserve a table inside the mansion or on the terrace, where you can watch wildlife wander among modern garden sculptures.
