Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: In a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere, Cara de Vaca is ideal for savoring a cut of Monterrey meat with unpretentious natural wine. Standouts include the New York cut with shishito peppers and baked potato, the raw tuna belly, and the burnt ear, a unique dessert with Glorias de Linares and vanilla ice cream. This restaurant offers an authentic and uncomplicated experience, perfect for those seeking quality and comfort in every bite.

    Fue mi cumpleaños y la verdad todo excelente, el servicio fue de parte de Adrián. Lo que sí me quedó a deber fue la ensalada de arugula esta vez si servicio me hizo muy normalita pero lo demás perfecto. 9/10

    Todo estuvo excelente! El mesero estuvo a la orden todo el tiempo, los tiempos súper rápidos, comida deliciosa, los drinks buenisimos! Solo al momento de pagar la cuenta mandaron a otra persona…dejamos más del 20% de propina y todavía nos dice que nos nos alcanzó para la cuenta! Quería hacer tranza, es la segunda vez que nos pasa que la quieren aplicar
