The restaurant does honour the several rewards it has won.Located inside the hotel Casa de los Milagros by the swimming pool which creates a nice environment to enjoy meals that delight.It happened to me that when I looked at the menu, it was hard to decide what to order as everything seemed very good.I finally made up my mind. On my first visit I had the Consomé de Pollo Estilo Xochitl, completely outstanding. A chicken soup served in a medium bowl (vast) with white rice, chicken, avocado cubes and panela cheese cubes. You can savour how all the elements of the soup mix very well giving the soup a delicious taste.For the second course I had the "Enchiladas estilo Tequisquiapan" another vast plate which as soon as you see it, you want to eat it. The sauce in which the tortillas are soaked is subtle but tasteful. The cheese that fills in each enchilada tasted fresh and to round the decoration but also the favours, chopped lettuce with cheese covering the top of the enchiladas. After that meal I knew I wanted to come back.My companions ordered the daily menu which also seemed tasty at first sight and indeed, they were also pleased with their meals. It is also a very good option. The next day we came back, I had the onion soup, to be honest the picture that appears on the menu was very different from the soup I got. Although it had good taste in general, the slices of onion were not enough soft and for that matter the slices were too wide and big. In addition the cheese that covered the soup was not well melted.Nonetheless, for the second course I had Fettuccine in lobster sauce with shrimp. The sauce was creamy with a subtle but noticeable taste of lobster. The pasta was well cooked, "al dente". The shrimp had been grilled and were served with their tails to keep their soft but nice flavour.For dessert strawberries with cream. Sliced strawberries covered with a delicate softly sugared cream.Again my companions ordered the daily menu which is also a good option, as well as tasty and most importantly very complete.I had the chance to see how the owner of the restaurant was watching the little details, helping and teaching the staff which to me was a good sign of the quality of the restaurant. Is not cheap but the cost of the meals is very well worth it. Perhaps what can be said cheap is the daily menu which is also worth it and even though is established, there are a couple of options so that you can choose what you prefer.Very recommendable!

I wrote a bad review some time back. Since then I've eaten in Il Fornetto a few more times and it has become one of my favourite restaurants in Tequisquiapan.Pasta and pizza are quite authentic if you are looking for Italian flavour. Only disappointment was the lasagna which I don't recommend. A really good dish that impresses everyone is the Salmon with cilantro sauce. Not very Italian, but delicious nonetheless. Desserts are above average. Best one I've eaten is the German strudel.I recommend eating in the garden since the main room is noisy and dark.As for the service they may get overwhelmed in very busy days, but other than that they are friendly and attentive.Since my first visit Il Fornetto has won me back and I go there 2-3 times every month.
