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.

I had dinner here last week, and it completely exceeded my expectations. It’s a rare find—sophisticated yet focused on the little details that make a big difference. The menu has a great mix of lighter and heartier options, and everything I tried was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The cocktails were another highlight—creative, fun, and perfectly balanced without ever feeling gimmicky. The staff were super friendly and attentive without hovering, always appearing just when we needed them. And that ocean view? Stunning. It made the whole experience feel extra special. This is definitely a spot I’ll be recommending—and coming back to!
