About Us
Where It All Began – Mazamitla, Jalisco
Our journey starts high in the pine-covered mountains of Mazamitla, a picturesque town in the Mexican state of Jalisco. There we discovered the rich aromas, vibrant colors, and warm hospitality that still inspire every dish we serve today.
From Mazamitla to Michigan
After arriving in the United States, we explored many paths before finding our true calling in the kitchen. Years spent honing culinary skills in bustling New York restaurants taught us discipline, creativity, and a deep respect for fresh ingredients—values that guide Plaza Garibaldi every single day.
