willtravel Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 Ate at Restaurante Bar Jamon in San Juan Cosala this evening and all I can say is go and try it. Best food we have had Lakeside. Service was very good, atmosphere lovely and food was outstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thevalerieleigh Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 Indeed! It's terrific! Going back again tomorrow. A little tricky to locate but once there, delicious and great service. Enjoy! Valerie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windstar Posted March 1, 2018 Report Share Posted March 1, 2018 Willtravel, you are right. The food was the best we have had lakeside in the 12 years we have been here. There are lots of good places but Bar Jamon is outstanding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Posted March 2, 2018 Report Share Posted March 2, 2018 Easy to find coming from Chapala/Ajijic, etc. Well worth the trip to San Juan Cosalá! A few minutes past the Raquet Club entrance, RIGHT next door to the OXXO, lake side of carretera. Go there. It's good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moonhill Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 After all the raves we couldn't wait to try it, went last night. They were out of so many things we could hardly keep count, so everything we ordered was our "second choice". The service was great, the setting is lovely, the food was barely mediocre in our view.

Al Berca Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 Great. Two not so good reviews and I'm leaving to go there for lunch for the first time in ten minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Berca Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 Sadly, me too. My fettuccine dish was way less than al dente with uncooked pasta in the middle and appeared to have been dipped in carbonara sauce as there was little in the bottom of the bowl. My companion thoroughly enjoyed her salad, mussels dish and two glasses of wine until the bill came at 335 pesos for her lunch, not including tip. Maybe, it was the wine. Service was excellent, polite and friendly. Nice ambiance, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xena Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 Well, that was a short burst of success. Less than a month ago rave reviews and “best food Lakeside” to now “barely mediocre food” and “underwhelmed.” Come on. You gotta try harder than that for longer than a couple of weeks if you want to establish a following. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 It is unfortunate that of the 45 or more local restaurants, when someone asks me to recommend a favourite, I have a hard time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
