naveenJune 12, 2017likely you're going to need resos, but if you don't, hang in their beautiful upstairs space and have a drink while you wait. a mescalita de fresa to start. the ensemble silvestre mezcal to follow.
A. LozadaApril 15, 2015A former Pujol alum, chef Eduardo puts out wonder after wonder. Everything on the menu is fantastic, and the wine selection is godly. Very recommended.- L. Q.February 18, 2018The bork belly, the tuna toro, the javali ravioli and the ceviche de pulpo were absolutely delicious. Good cocktail menu. Service did not impress. Make a reservation in advance.
Fallon | Sage + SparkleJanuary 30, 20141. Make sure you make a reservation. 2. Menu is in Spanish only 3. What to eat: "jamica pumpkin soup" "Haramachi with avocado/chili sauce" & "duck w/grapefruit vanilla sauce" and the bread and dip =👌- The Taste SheriffMay 12, 2019Fantastic food. Reservations are essential. Get the truffle risotto, the jamon with tomato bread, and the fatty tuna. Their homemade ice cream dessert is incredible.
Elyse EstradaJanuary 3, 2014Must make a reservation but they only take walk-ins after 9pm. All the pastas are delish so is the suckling pig and rotisserie chicken. Get the artichoke to start and end with the rhubarb tart!- AmberMay 10, 2017Beautiful, light-filled space on a tree-lined block of Roma. A go-to for lunch among locals and food-obsessed DF tourists. Local ingredients and sustainability with a French-leaning Mexican menu.
Russell HirschornAugust 19, 2017Simple, extremely well executed dishes. Tasting menu is the way to go. Reservations are a must. Lechon Risotto is unreal.
- Fodor's TravelAugust 15, 2018Once the hottest table in the city, the rush has calmed down but the quality remains the same, which makes the outdoor seats now the perfect place to watch the city go by over a leisurely lunch. Read more
- The ArtificialNovember 27, 2017The place is quite small so a reser-vation is a must. All dishes are amazing and you can also take a four course tasting menu. They also serve my favorite Mexican wine – Ensamble.
Nydia JFebruary 23, 2020I just love this restaurant, one of the best in town !!!! Everything is good but the chocolate desert is a must...
Ashleigh GardnerDecember 19, 2015Great fusion mexican food. Everything was fantastic but the highlight was the Hamachi. Don't be discouraged if you can't get a reservation. After 9pm is walk-in only.
Brian SalomakiNovember 15, 2016Easily one of the best restaurants in Mexico City. More expensive than other options, and be sure to have a reservation, but it's all worth it.
Max WennekerFebruary 22, 2017Nothing jumped out at me on the menu but every single thing we ordered was fantastic. Short rib and chicken were great.
Mike McBryanOctober 18, 2014Everything was amazing. Buratta, asparagus, tortollini and the lechon (pork) were all highlights.
NixieMarch 11, 2017Exquisite bistrot. Artichoke soup, kampachi, baby corn. Ribs with mushroom ragout, sea bass with mole. Missing valet parking.
Erika ElorzaDecember 12, 2019The food is wonderful and the Chef is amazing! It’s a must in Mexico City 💕
Abhishek KonaOctober 9, 2016It's great for a fancy date. The appetizers are really good. Great service. The only thing we did not like was the sea bass
Gregory FisherFebruary 23, 2020The tasting menu is mostly just a selection of the same a la carte offerings, but in smaller portions (debatably economic, but good)
Sabrina MajeedOctober 7, 2017Celeriac and artichoke soup, as well as the pappardelle pasta with caviar were highlights of the meal.
Premshree PillaiFebruary 11, 2015You might have a very hard time getting a table, but the unpretentious Mexican-inflected food using modern techniques is very much worth it.
Julia SteeleAugust 27, 2016Handmade burrata, Ernest Hemingway novel (ask server about rooftop bar for after)
Karolina KukielkaAugust 11, 2017worth waiting for the table or coming back :) it is not about killing the hunger but an experience
Tru MillerMay 5, 2014Eduardo and Gaby, I saw you guys on Antoine Bourdain -- I am so proud of you both, So cool and collected...... Felicidades !!!!!!
Nice food as always, but in this moment is overrated and expensive if you compare it with new restaurants in the city
- Parker DayJuly 20, 2016Reservations recommended. Chef Eduardo Garcia has cooked in New York - the food is a accessible and familiar (smoked salmon ceviche, mushroom risotto) using local and organic Mexican ingredients.
