Located in Carroll Gardens, Bar San Miguel is a delightful and relaxed restaurant that serves authentic Mexican dishes and fantastic drinks. The restaurant is inspired by the historic town of San Miguel de Allende located in the hills of Mexico. Bar San Miguel provides a rustic cozy atmosphere with an amazing back patio to serve patrons quality Mexican dishes, craft tequila, margaritas and mezcal cocktails. Does Bar San Miguel offer the best Mexican dishes in New York City? Well, no. Simply because there is no such thing. However, they do have a fantastic selection of tacos and enchiladas that will more than delight your palate. More so if you are chasing them with tequila drinks with a hint of jalapeno. The customer service at Bar San Miguel is excellent and the staff is very friendly. Ultimately, the restaurant gives you the vibe of a neighborhood restaurant —one where you might meet up with some friends for dinner, have some drinks, and perhaps ponder over your investment strategy.

Shan was recommended by a female duo I follow on IG...bklynmavens. The experience surpassed my expectations, every dish was delicious with a bit of spice but not to overwhelm. My dinner companion does not eat meat and our waiter suggested the Dan Dan noodles without pork and it was a home run, she's currently looking up a recipe online to attempt it at home lol. She had the prawn dry pot as well and we both did the happy dance when tasted. I was not disappointed with my duck entree that came with buns, duck was cook to perfection and the sauce was perfect for that meal. We split the coconut cotta dessert, different for us but a welcomed change, tasty yet light. We will definitely return with others to experience Shan. Thank you for the good food and service!
