Nestled in the heart of Las Juntas, Jal., Restaurante Salgado invites you to experience the rich and vibrant flavors of authentic Mexican cuisine that truly captures the spirit of the region. This charming, family-run eatery is a hidden gem off the beaten path, offering an intimate dining atmosphere where warm hospitality and homemade dishes come together beautifully.
The menu at Restaurante Salgado is a celebration of traditional Mexican fare with a few delightful twists. Start your culinary journey with their famed Chilaquiles, available in several irresistible variations—from the classic Chilaquiles Sencillos bathed in your choice of a bright red or fresh green salsa to the hearty Chilaquiles con Arrachera Gratinados, topped with succulent grilled skirt steak, refried beans, and melted cheese. Each bite bursts with layers of smoky, tangy, and savory notes that tantalize the taste buds.
If you crave something uniquely decadent, don’t miss the Hamburguesa Mar y Tierra, a surf-and-turf delight that perfectly balances seasoned beef and tender shrimp, served alongside crisp golden fries. The Hamburguesa de Camarón, featuring sautéed shrimp with fresh bell peppers, cheese, juicy tomato, crisp lettuce, and onion, offers a lighter yet equally flavorful alternative. And for a sweet finish, their Postre De Plátano—flambeeed fried plantains drizzled with sweetened condensed milk—provides a comforting, caramelized end to the meal.
What truly sets Restaurante Salgado apart is its warm, inviting atmosphere that feels like sharing a meal at your favorite abuela’s house. Guests consistently praise the attentive and friendly staff who enrich the dining experience with genuine care. The restaurant’s commitment to freshness is evident in the homemade tortillas and a variety of vibrant salsas that complement every dish perfectly.

We found this place by using Google Maps and because of previous reviews we headed here in an Uber. The restaurant is located in a local residential neighborhood north of PV airport. No one here speaks English which just adds to the authenticity of the place. They do have a menu in English though. We ordered a house salad with local cheese and also a grilled beef platter with cactus, pot beans and fresh guacamole. Both dishes were delicious. The beef was so tender and tasty. The guacamole was perfection on a plate. They make their own fresh tortillas from dough right there and serve them straight off the grill to your table. This was one of the best and most authentic Mexican meals we had during our stay in PV. Staff are wonderful and Google translate bridges the language barrier. Washrooms look brand new and prob best we have seen anywhere in PV. All round great experience. Get a taxi or Uber here and enjoy a great meal.
