St Rémy du Lac - 45920 Ajijic

Great service, meals were great, atmosphere very good. We will go back

Some of the best French cuisine outside of France. Just simply incredible food, service, and location

Exceptional meal and service. Cano, the owner and his staff are really on top of it. Can't wait to go back for brunch.

Great food and atmosphere. I really liked the service. My steak wa good and the duck was fantastic.

Food was good but very expensive. The menu is limited. They have moved from their old, beautiful location to a plain terrace at the Donaire Hotel. Zero stars for atmosphere. The pictures posted here are from their old location.

This place has nothing to do with a French restaurant. I’m French and it was far from being aFrench cuisine. The menu has not been updated probably since the opening. They’re hoping no French people will come there. Even though the garden is agreeable, you can see that it’s not well maintained. The umbrellas were dirty and broken, and the tables were not super clean. But what justify the 1 star rating, is the fact that the owner’s husband stopped by every tables to greet the customers except ours. He saluted both tables next to us and ignored my husband, my son and myself. Is it because I’m Black? He spent 10mn patting White Americans on the back, telling them that he needed them, asking if they had too much sun, but never had a look at our table. Extremely shocking and shameful for this pathetic and rude person. As the husband’s owner, he should be able to salute his wife’s guests impartially, it’s just politeness in regards to the people who are spending money in his wife’s restaurant. We don’t need fake and hypocritical attention, but saying “hello” is basic respect that we deserve. Of course, this obvious racist behavior doesn’t reflect the Mexican hospitality. It’s just a poor man with no education. Nevertheless, I won’t recommend this overrated place to anyone who wants good French food. It’s just a scam.

Sublime, simply sublime From the beautifully charming Hacienda setting, to the superb service and the simple exquisite food, St Remy du Lac is a fine dining experience that's in a league of its own. The escargot were frankly amazing, while the short ribs were exceedingly tender and falvorful. Full marks across the board. I'll be returning here a lot.

There is valet parking, but unfortunately there are also three sets of stairs to the terrace where St. Remy du Lac is located. The views of Lake Chapala are beautiful. Service was friendly, but sometimes inattentive. We started with cocktails of Whiskey on the Rocks and Sangria. For appetizers we had Escargot, and Grilled Asparagus wrapped in Prosciutto with cherry tomatoes and a creamy cheese sauce. For dinner we had the Grilled Octopus in a Saffron Cream Sauce with spicy Roasted Potatoes; and, the Beef Short Ribs with Mashed Potatoes. For dessert we had the Chocolate covered Profiteroles and the Apple Tart with vanilla ice cream accompanied by a 10 year Tawny Port.
