Guadalajara’s most inventive restaurant is this super-chic eatery west of the center. Sleek and industrial though the setting is, it’s the food people come for. The menus – both a la carte and prix fixe – are best described as a fusion of French preparation and Mexican tastes; seafood dishes are particularly strong. Wine pairings also available. Reservations highly recommended.
