About the restaurant

Mar del Zur es un restaurante de comida de autor; creamos la cocina MexTai: una fusión de gastronomía mexicana y tailandesa. El mar del sur era el nombre como se conocía originalmente al Océano Pacífico. Fue descubierto hace 500 años y con esto se dieron los mayores cambios en el mundo formando así una gran ruta marítima que facilitó el comercio e intercambio entre continentes. Mar del Zur engloba los sabores de la ruta que recorría la Nao de China desde el sureste Asiático hasta México. El Chef Eduardo Palazuelos, hijo de la famosa banquetera Susana Palazuelos y dueño del restaurante Zibu en Acapulco Guerrero, ha sido galardonado con una serie de premios, entre ellos el Pochteca de Plata por la Secretaría de Turismo y en ambos restaurantes por tres años consecutivos, el más alto reconocimiento de calidad para empresas de lujo en México, el Five Diamond Award.

About the restaurant

New Opening!
Vertical Restaurant and Bar is born!

Immersed in the magic of the Puerta del Lobo vineyard, our cuisine is rooted in the unexplored richness of the Bajío region of Mexico.

We create dishes that stem from our roots and traditions, and when combined with techniques and trends from different regions, they unleash the honest and genuine flavors of our menu. A menu composed of dishes meant to be shared and enjoyed around the table.

The origin of each ingredient is fundamental to our cuisine. We have forged close ties with producers from nearby farms to source high-quality ingredients, reflecting the fertility and hard work of our community in the fields.

We cook slowly, with care, with love, and with passion, to bring to the table a flavorful, nutritious, and honest cuisine.

We offer a 15-minute grace period for each reservation. If you do not arrive within the allotted time, your table will be automatically given to another guest.

We are Pet Friendly!

Great spot for have lunch and a picture, great kitchen with a view. Wine fair good, not excellent. In the wine store the guy is a bad seller, doesn’t put you much attention or care to recommend a wine, is just a cashier.

Amazing food, as for drinks and the service it could could have some improvement. Staff seemed overwhelmed and inattentive and it was not even overcrowded. Drinks not tasty at all. With better service, this place could truly shine!
