About this restaurant

  • Fancy
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for creative cocktails
Elena is a gastronomic project under the concept of cuisine from the ground floor, in an environment
of comfort where diners can enjoy an extremely pleasant experience and
within a fun and relaxed atmosphere.
The restaurant offers a menu where our respect and appreciation for local ingredients is reflected, always using the freshest and best quality ingredients. The result is dishes created using a mix of influences from traditional and contemporary cuisines.
We ensure that the best accompaniment to our cuts of meat and seafood is, without a doubt, a good glass of wine. Our wine list is made up largely of wines from the Valle de Guadalupe, consistent with the idea of ​​taking advantage of the region's product. Or if you fancy something more refreshing, we have a House Mixology menu from the most experimental and avant-garde to classic cocktails.

Gracias al clima tipo mediterráneo contamos con una cocina con productos locales como frutas, olivos, quesos y por supuesto frutos del mar como abulón, langosta y pesca sustentable a lo que le denominamos COCINA DE LA BAJA . El concepto de Bakuss es de un espacio armónico, divertido y con una atmosfera llena de buenos elementos desde la mixología, vinos espumantes, destilados y licores Premium que enriquecen este oyster bar donde encontraras frutos del mar, platillos frescos y un festin de ricos sabores hechos con elementos de la región.

    I will avoid this reataurant. While the food is not bad, the service is not good and the value is very poor. It took 20 minutes before our drinks arrived and our order was taken. The final bill came, and 700 pesos ($35USD) for a double Hendrix tonic? Who does this place think it is? The final problem came when I wanted to tip 15% for this mediocre service, and the waitress had the gall to say 18% is minimum. I told her 15% - period. If you are going to charge exorbitant prices, then the service had better match.

    We had a reservation on Valentines Day indoor. We waited over an hour for our table. They were very polite and kind about it and offered a place to sit outside while we waited but still poor operations. After waiting an hour they created a table for by us by pulling out a table which was very nice effort but we were placed next to a door and people kept walking in and out. Food was uneventful. Not bad, but when you are surrounded by so many good restaurants in the area it feels a little flat.

    La comida es excelente, los precios un poco elevados, pero el servicio es terrible, 20minutos de espera para que nos permitieran la carta, 20min para que nos trajeran la bebida y para colmo la cuenta con cargos extra
