Three brothers split the kitchen, pastry, and floor between them at this Michelin-starred tasting menu restaurant in San Pedro Garza García, which makes northern Mexican cooking feel like a statement of purpose. Cabrito gets reimagined, mole neolonés shows up in unexpected places, and the cocktail pairings, alcoholic or not, are clearly being taken as seriously as the food. The kind of dinner that makes you feel Monterrey has been underestimated.

Adrián Herrera has a big name in Mexican food circles, and this is decidedly not his flashy flagship. It's a laid-back neighborhood fonda where the cooking runs to homey stewed goat and encacahuatadas, the kind of food that doesn't need a pretty plate to make its case. The room is unpretentious, the drinks are good, and nobody's performing anything for anyone. Exactly the sort of lunch spot you'd hope a well-connected local would text you about.

Tortillas made from scratch hit your table as tostadas before you've even opened the menu, which sets the tone at this Noreste Mexican restaurant in San Pedro Garza García. The kitchen works over live fire, leaning on local ingredients and traditional recipes, and the Michelin Guide has taken notice. Skirt steak, dry-brined and draped over fresh corn tortillas, arrives with a watercress salad that actually earns its place on the plate.

The name comes from Doña Mary herself, who earned the nickname "la gritona" (the yeller) for scolding anyone who holds up the line. This family-run taqueria on Madero earns a Michelin Bib Gourmand for doing the simple thing extremely well: flour or corn tortillas, both made fresh, filled and topped with onion, cilantro, and a choice of salsas. Order at the window, cross the street, pull up a plastic chair, and eat.

A family taqueria across from a cemetery, which locals have long called "tacos del muerto" with the cheerful fatalism only a third-generation operation earns. The tortillas, flour or corn, hit the plancha with oil until they blister and crisp at the edges. The fillings run from picadillo with potato and ground beef to pork shank stewed in red chile, with the taco de cabeza, chopped beef head meat, as the signature order for anyone paying attention.

The original Barrio Antiguo location of this Mexican grill and taqueria has a parrilla you can see from the patio, which sets expectations correctly. Tall ceilings, potted raised beds, and a full bar make it the kind of place where a table of four can spend an evening without really noticing the time. The plates run large, the arrachera tacos come on flour tortillas with a cheese crust, and the mezcal cocktails tend to multiply.
