  • 2/5 Abdul Rahman A. 9 months ago on Google • 176 reviews
    I'm puzzled as to how this restaurant has a 4.9 rating on Google Maps or is listed among the top 20 restaurants in Mexico City on TripAdvisor. Despite making a reservation, I found the restaurant empty and no one at the reception. The waiters didn't speak English, forcing us to communicate through Google Translate. The service was slow, and they didn't accommodate my request to avoid certain ingredients. While some dishes, like the tuna ceviche and steak, were good, overall I found the experience lacking. I feel the restaurant is overrated and seems like a tourist trap.

    Our favorite dining experience in Mexico City. You must try this restaurant as it takes everything to the next level without making it fusion-ey. Our server, David, was fantastic as well. The fried NY steak with guacamole, tortilla soup (one of the best soups I’ve ever had), marinated shrimp, and ceviches. We would honestly just order all appetizers the next time around—they were that good!

    A very nice restaurant with attentive staff, and a great balcony view. I had a mole enchiladas, which was.. weird, as it is a meal based on smoked chocolate spicy sauce, but I enjoyed it. Sadly, no alcohol free beers :(

    Food was superb. A three course, dinner for two, with drinks was $2000. It was worth it.

    (Translated by Google) He did not cease to amaze me from start to finish. The delicious chard tamale and the perfect ceviche. Guava dessert accompanied by a carajillo, you do not need more to have an unforgettable afternoon. (Original) No dejó de sorprenderme de inicio a fin. El tamal de acelgas delicioso y el ceviche perfecto. Postre de guayaba acompañado de un carajillo, no necesitas más para tener una tarde inolvidable.

    Amazing place, great service! Order 2 appetizers one pulpo carpaccio and beef tartar, the carpaccio was very good but the tartare was horrible it had more mayo than anything. The manager was fast to offer something else and I order the Tuna appetizer and the tuna was frozen and bad... I had 3 drinks and they were good. At the end my bill was about $1,300 pesos. Was only able to eat one of 3 appetizers. If the restaurant does not sell enough Tuna and it's not fresh, remove it from the menu and the tartare it's something that it's hard to mess up. Will never go back.

    Service was great and the margaritas were wonderful, however the food was terrible. Got the set menu each - 1 entree was delicious (chicharon) but the other entrée and both mains were awful - overcooked and bland. Desserts were very average also. Quite disappointed considering the great rating on Google and how pricey it was. Have eaten much better food from the street stalls, wouldn't dine here again.

    (Translated by Google) Very good place to enjoy different dishes from different parts of the Republic, I recommend the Ocosingo Cheese and the Mole Oaxaqueño or Chile in Nogada. The design of the restaurant is pleasant, as well as the lighting and the panoramic view that it offers from the third floor that is located. (Original) Muy buen lugar para disfrutar de distintos platillos de diferentes partes de la República, recomiendo de entrada el Queso de Ocosingo y de plato fuerte el Mole Oaxaqueño o el Chile en Nogada. El diseño del restaurante es agradable, así como la iluminación y la panorámica que ofrece desde el tercer piso que está ubicado.

    This was the best. Insanely great contemporary Mexican-Italian influenced cuisine lovingly prepared. The green salsa was mind-blowing, the empanada appetizer was fabulous and the vegetarian lasagna was flat out amazing. Plus, there is a gorgeous view from the third floor of the modern city with classical architectural gems peppered in the landscape.

    Great food, drinks, excellent flavors and awsome service by Gerardo & Leonardo (salsa prep).

  • 2/5 James E. 6 months ago on Google
    No idea where the 4.9 came from. More like 0.49. For the money far and away the worst meal we’ve eaten in Mexico. One decent plate of food out of 6. Fish bland, overcooked, covered in semi stale corn chip slithers. Ribs in sauce. Like boiled pork bones in a can of tomato soup. Queso fresco entree, cheese was close to being off, you know that wonky feta smell. Dessert boring, yup…… 2 nice margaritas. Please save your money our 100 peso lunch for 2 at the taco stand was so much better. 🤮

  • 5/5 Marc G. 10 months ago on Google
    We had our first feed here and it was unreal, great way to start our trip in Mexico City. So much so that tonight we are heading back again to double down, which tells the story as there are so many good restaurants in CDMX.

  • 5/5 LAC “Shelly” A. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent. Amazing, epic. Best food. The Enchiladas Suizas were the best ones I've ever had. The service is royal. Friendly, the ambiance is relaxing. The jazz music playing was soo relaxing and the view wow. Manuel, Gerardo are the best. Gerardo serves the best drinks. Rene the manager was so special. Caring and welcoming.

  • 4/5 Michael B. 2 years ago on Google
    This is an elegantly laid out restaurant located on the third floor of the Fiesta Americana hotel. Seating options included both indoor and outdoor with very attentive service. I would describe the flavor of the camarones adobado meal as unique. I liked the sweet potato tamale it was served with though, and I was surprised to see more pieces of shrimp than stated in the menu.

  • 5/5 Angélica Garnica S. 2 years ago on Google

    (Translated by Google) A beautiful place in the center of Mexico City. It is located on the third floor of the Hotel Fiesta Americana. Perfect for celebrations and special occasions. They have a terrace that allows you to see a part of the monument to the Revolution and a nice view (although not complete) of the city. The food is delicious, I recommend adding the black mole. They offer a mixture of traditional Mexican food with a touch of modernity. They have mixiology so I recommend trying a new drink. As for the security measures, they provide you with gel and temperature measurement at the entrance and the tables are separated by a good distance so it is ideal. The hotel has free valet parking for diners and you can make reservations to secure your table. The average cost per person, with food and drink is $ 500. (Original) Un lugar hermoso en el centro de la ciudad de México. Se encuentra en el tercer piso del Hotel Fiesta Americana. Perfecto para celebraciones y ocasiones especiales. Cuentan con una terraza que te permite ver una parte del monumento a la Revolución y una vista linda (aunque no completa) de la ciudad. La comida es deliciosa, recomiendo pobrar el mole negro. Otorgan una mezcla de comida tradicional mexicana con un tocó de modernidad. Cuentan con mixiologia por lo que recomiendo probar algún trago nuevo. En cuanto a las medidas de seguridad, te proporcionan gel y toma de temperatura a la entrada y las mesas se encuentran separadas por una buena distancia así que es ideal. El hotel cuenta con valet parking gratuito para los comensales y puedes hacer reservaciones para asegurar tu mesa. El gasto promedio por persona, con platillo y bebida es de $500.

    (Translated by Google) Cool restaurant with a good view from the terrace. For some reason, there were practically no people, although it was Friday evening. Delicious food, good service, very attentive staff. The prices are average, already came out at 2000 pesos with a bottle of wine, 4 courses, a cocktail and coffee. (Original) Классный ресторан с хорошим видом с террасы. Почему-то практически не было людей, хотя был вечер пятницы. Вкусная еда, хорошая подача, очень внимательно отношение персонала. Цены средние, ужен вышел в 2000 песо с бутылкой вина, 4 блюдами, коктейлем и кофе.

    Notice how all the positive reviews were posted around the same time. Is it AI or a paid service? Either way, don’t go here! It’s like they seasoned the food with sugar instead of salt. Everything tasted strange. $200 USD for two people to eat. Get street tacos instead, seriously!

  • 4/5 Ernesto W. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Criticizing a place like this is difficult in many ways, arriving at a place recommended to you by a supposed friend really raises your expectations. However, in front of a 17-story building, it is sad to arrive only at 3 where there is undoubtedly an excellent view of the city from the terrace, large buildings and the monument to the Revolution shelter you. There are several aspects starting with the place, beautiful decoration and perfect cleaning, they comply with all safety and hygiene measures as well as Covid protocol (separate tables, use of gel, staff with face masks), the service is extremely attentive and the most interesting They tell you the preparation of the dishes and drinks what is much better enjoyed (it can be a bit uncomfortable when you are chewing your food). They prepare very interesting and truly delicious mixology, however the reason for my 4 stars is in the taste of the dishes, for my taste the food is a little salty. (Original) Criticar un lugar así es difícil en muchos aspectos, llegar a un lugar que te recomendó una supuesta amiga en verdad eleva tus expectativas. Sin sin embargo ante un edificio de 17 pisos es triste llegar sólo al 3 dónde sin duda hay una excelente vista de la ciudad desde la terraza, grandes edificios y el monumento a la Revolución te cobijan. Existen varios aspectos empezando por el lugar, hermosa decoración y limpieza perfecta, cumplen con todas las medidas de seguridad e higiene así como protocolo Covid ( mesas separadas, uso de gel, personal con cubrebocas), el servicio es en extremo atento y lo más interesante te cuentan la preparación de los platillos y bebidas lo que se disfruta mucho mejor (puede ser un poco incómodo cuando estás masticando tu comida). Preparan mixología muy interesante y verdaderamente deliciosa, sin embargo el motivo de mis 4 estrellas se encuentra en el sabor de los platos, para mi gusto la comida está un poquito salada.

    (Translated by Google) Its description says it is a restaurant specializing in Mexican food, when the waiter receives tea, he tells you that the chef is recognized as one of the best in Mexico and that the restaurant is recognized in Mexican food ... they have a lot of southern food, I asked for cochinita pibil , when boasting how good they are in Mexican cuisine I was expecting a very good cochinita pibil, and oh oh disappointment, it turned out to be a little chiapaneco and nothing to do with cochinita pibil, the ocosingo cheese they put so much onion that did not allow to appreciate the taste of cheese I think that to boast about something, you need a lot (Original) Su descripción dice que es restaurante especializado en comida mexicana, cuando el mesero té recibe te dice que el chef está reconocido como uno de los mejores de Mexico y que el restaurante está reconocido en comida mexicana... tienen mucha comida sureña, pedí cochinita pibil, al jactarse de lo buenos que son en cocina mexicana esperaba una muy buena cochinita pibil, y pues oh decepción, en realidad resultó ser cochito chiapaneco y nada que ver con cochinita pibil, el queso de ocosingo le pusieron tanta cebolla que no permitía apreciar el sabor del queso. Creo que para jactarse de algo, les hace falta mucho

    (Translated by Google) An excellent option, I really did not expect much from the place (it is rare the restaurant inside a hotel that is worth it), but I must say that the service and attention of the place is up to the best restaurants in the area, the menu is inspired by the recipes and flavors of the south, with an adequate interpretation of the flavors and recipes. The cost / quality / service ratio is excellent. (Original) Una excelente opción, realmente no esperaba mucho del lugar (es raro el restaurante dentro de un hotel que valga la pena), pero debo decir que el servicio y atención del lugar está a la altura de los mejores restaurantes de la zona, el menú está inspirado en las recetas y sabores del sur, con una interpretación adecuada de los sabores y recetas. La relación costo/calidad/servicio es excelente.
