El Tío — Cabrito Restaurant

Monterrey, Nuevo León

About El Tío — Cabrito Restaurant

El Tío is Monterrey's most celebrated traditional restaurant for cabrito al pastor — whole young goat slow-roasted on an open wood fire — which is the signature Norteño dish and the mandatory pregame meal of any Monterrey football fan who takes both sport and food seriously. The restaurant's sawdust floor, communal tables, and the sight and smell of goats slowly rotating on mesquite-wood fires create an atmosphere as elemental as the Sierra Madre itself. Eating cabrito here before heading to Estadio BBVA or El Volcán is a deeply regiomontano act.

Located in Monterrey.
