Quince is an upscale casual, indoor/outdoor restaurant where all demographics and generations come together and enjoy a dining experience beyond normal expectations. People may initially visit for the terraces with exceptional views, but the food and the overall “Quince Experience” is what keeps them coming back. The "crave-worthy" and "global collective" menus & the team’s attentive and personal service are mixed with carefully-curated happy tunes which altogether create a positive-energy experience rarely found in a restaurant. This is how Quince in San Miguel de Allende (SMA), MX became rated top of its class and is the “# 1 rooftop restaurant in the world.” and the "#1 rooftop destination in the world" by Robb Magazine.
