Fauna
Valle de Guadalupe
Back to basics - food as it should be
Ask anyone who’s been to Valle de Guadalupe about where to eat, and they’ll immediately reply Fauna. Located inside Bruma Vineyard, it’s one of the top restaurants in the valley because it features an experimental menu that changes daily and continually offers exciting new options. Fauna restaurant is about presenting food and creating dishes that showcase food in its basic form; offering options that aren’t exaggerated or overthought. Guests will delight in plates that are filled with regional and traditional flavors. All dishes are Mexican favorites prepared in a way that will make you crave them for months to come.
Chef David Castro Hussong oversees Fauna restaurant, and his youth brings new life to the food. Hussong has an extensive background in the kitchen, and his young, fresh approach offers visitors a chance to treat themselves to delicious meals inspired by his childhood spent watching his father prepare daily barbacoa. Fauna uses local ingredients to produce traditional flavors in an unconditional manner. The attention to detail is what makes the meal impressive and unforgettable, while the wines from Bruma vineyards elevate the dining experience. The up-scale restaurant has beautiful décor.
Floor to ceiling windows allows natural light to shine in and enable impressive views of the property. Family-style tables made from recycled wood create space to accommodate large parties and the vibrant tile accents provide energy and character to the atmosphere. A casual seating area in the vegetable garden is the perfect place to retire after dinner. The presentation is just as impressive as the food itself and the chef’s creative mind is reflected in his menu items like oysters, blood clams, and Kampachi aguachile tostadas. The open-kitchen concept allows a behind-the-scenes view of the creative talents needed to create these edible masterpieces.
There’s something magical about being able to see your food as it’s being prepared, making the meal so much more personal and intimate. Fauna Restaurant also offers a fixed menu with more traditional Mexican choices that are still as delicious as the features on the experimental menu. It doesn’t matter what dish or dessert you choose, dining at Fauna is a magical, upscale experience that will transport your taste buds to new places. It’s a must-visit in Valle de Guadalupe.
Insider Tip: For groups of 6+ the restaurant offers two optional menus, Fauna’s or Experimental. Both menus can accommodate dietary restrictions.
