Signature cuisine by Chef Jaime Abaroa in one of the most iconic buildings of San Luis Potosí's Historic Downtown.
Last year we received the CANIRAC Dionisio Award as the restaurant with the best gastronomic experience in the city — a recognition of Chef Jaime Abaroa's cuisine, our service and every detail you experience at the cantina.
Facing the Plaza Fundadores, in the heart of one of Mexico's most beautiful historic downtowns, La Histórica was born to tell —plate by plate— the culinary memory of San Luis Potosí. It occupies the legendary Ipiña Building, witness to generations of the city's life.
Led by Chef Jaime Abaroa, one of the most relevant figures in Potosino cuisine, every dish reinterprets the region's flavors with contemporary technique and deep respect for tradition.
It is a cantina, signature cuisine and a meeting point: mezcals and tequilas from small producers, house cocktails and, every Friday, live salsa beneath the colonial architecture only the center of the country can offer.
Leading the kitchen at La Histórica is Chef Jaime Abaroa, one of the most relevant figures in the Potosino culinary scene. His cuisine reinterprets the region's flavors with contemporary technique and deep respect for tradition: local produce, rooted recipes and flawless execution that earned La Histórica the Dionisio Award for the best gastronomic experience in San Luis Potosí.
"History becomes experience: you live it, you taste it, you share it."

Every Friday, the cantina lights up with live salsa. Dinner, cocktails and dancing beneath the vaults of the Ipiña Building. The perfect way to close the week in the Historic Downtown.
