    Good food from Mexico. Friendly staff, nice English menu. I liked it! I would definitely come back. I ordered the Chicharrones, guacamole, two tacos, and lots more that I forgot to photograph.

    There are 19 different locations for this resturant. We visited the one in Polanco. Overall good experience. The food taste good, dishes are nicely presented! The resturant looks pretty and got nice atmosphere. Portions are large and well served. Prices are higher than other restaurants, but it is typical for the location of the resturant and the level of the resturant. ⚠️Recommend to reserve a table, but they will also take walks in. Big restaurants with a lot of space. 💰 Main dishes 200-330MXN ~ €10-17 👉There are options for vegetarians. 🔥 Follow @Ohelet.Tov on Instagram or Tik-Tok for more food recommendations around the world

    El Bajío is a mandatory stop ever time I visit CDMX. Delicious Mexican food, excellent service and great location in Polanco.

  • 5/5 Alex F. 2 years ago on Google
    Went to El Bajio in Polanco last night and honestly couldn’t recommend it more. The food quality, quantity and the kindness of the staff as well as the decor was simply outstanding. Very worth it in terms of money as well, I will definitely go back. Thank you so much for that lovely experience :)

    We hosted a post-wedding brunch at El Bajio en Polanco for about 70 people. Jose Luis Berrera, the manager, was communicative and incredible at executing this event. We had a phenomenal brunch with amazing bread baskets, main course options, cocktails and excellent service. The setting of the restaurant was perfect too because it felt like an authentic Mexican style dining experience. All of our guests were blown away by their experience at El Bajio. I’m extremely grateful for their professionalism, fantastic food and superior service!

    There was great personalized customer service! The hot chocolate was amazing and the food was great. Visited during my time in Mexico City with my family. We had breakfast there and it was a great atmosphere and the omelettes were great!

    It was very busy Sunday but we were seated fast. The manager and captain were the most nervous and unfriendly. They should know how to work under pressure. Otherwise, everybody was very effective and helpful. The food, just average. Nothing memorable, but authentic flavors. Thank You, kitchen staff

    Food is delicious as in any other "El Bajio". Our waiter was really kind and service was good, although at the end they were making it complicated because we asked for separate bills and we didn't tell them since the beginning (which for me, from experience at other restaurants, it's not necessary). They also sat a full noisy table just right beside us after we arrived, when the rest of the tables were empty. I would expect more from such a nice restaurant.

    Very nice staff, but the food is not too delicious.

  • 5/5 Miguel F. 1 month ago on Google • 26 reviews New
    The food is incredible, just moved to Mexico City and this is now my favorite place for breakfast. I highly recommend Huarache de carnitas and the churros with nata.

  • 5/5 Tim C. 4 months ago on Google • 20 reviews
    My wife and I like to come here to feed the kids and get margaritas before we go out. They have the best margaritas and their kids menu is perfect. The atmosphere is on the tamer side but sometimes that’s what you need. We’ll keep coming back

    Pricey but the food is good. The higher prices are to be expected in this neighborhood. Plenty of smaller plate options though, which are surprisingly good portions. Ordered a bunch of small things are had a feast! Can 1000% recommend the plantain empanadas stuffed with black beans. They were incredible. The service was excellent.

    Food was delicious, the octopus tostadas and the tortilla soup were both great, and you can ask if you want things spicy or not. I also had flan but it was too good i forgot to take a pic

  • 4/5 Perle 1 year ago on Google
    A typical Mexican restaurant, with big variety of choice. Beautiful and big space, very cosy. thing to remember…ask if you want something not spicy! Only bad thing to say, the waiter took the tip from my card, without asking me.

  • 4/5 Алиса �. 1 year ago on Google
    Good and interesting choice of Mexican dishes that are not that easily found around. Everything we got was very good, prehispánic herb was very interesting to try

  • 4/5 Cicely W. 4 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Patrick C. 1 year ago on Google
    Decent restaurant. The food was great and the staff was courteous. I enjoyed the ample seating in or outside, as well as the theming. Didn't really "wow" me but it's an overall solid experience.

  • 1/5 Ceci M. 1 year ago on Google
    It's the typical place in a touristic area with a fake, plastic, symmetric, "gourmet" version of real local food. It's ok for tourists or for people who just want to enjoy a pretty place. If you are looking for real Mexican food, stay away from this restaurant. It's expensive , portions are small, food is not tasty and it's cold.

  • 5/5 Fernando R. 9 months ago on Google
    Great spot near Reforma Avenue. This was our spot many years ago, but haven’t been back in a while. The visit didn’t disappoint- friendly service and food served hot with flavors right on point. Valet Parking is available. Definitely will be back.

    Great place for lunch or dinner with good price/quality ratio. About $250 per personne. The service was great and efficient. Within 10 minutes of arrival we had our drinks and Tacos Carnitas. The food was really good, flavourful and the tortilla are made fresh in the restaurant. Highly recommended and would come back again.

    (Translated by Google) The carnitas are very well prepared, they won't hurt you, the guacamole is good but it doesn't have any peculiarities and the tortillas are handmade at the moment. Apart from the spectacular view, it is a suitable place for a good relaxed talk.

    Delicious Mexican food! Love the place and the food. They don't get 5 because the service was a bit down the level.

  • 3/5 Kate G. 4 years ago on Google
    We came here looking for good tacos and good vegetarian food based on the reviews, but unfortunately we didn’t have that same experience. Seemed like a really nice spot when we sat down though, and it was really cute! As soon as we sat down, before we even looked at the menu, we practically had hot chocolate thrust on us and weren’t sure whether it was complimentary or we were paying for it (we were paying for it). Also got a coffee here while we looked over the menu, but when I asked about vegetarian options and specifically tacos, they said all they could make me was a cheese enchilada - not even on the menu. Pretty disappointing and we went ahead and paid after that and wanted to leave, but it took forever to get our change so we could go find another lunch spot - ended up having to ask for it again from a different server. I’m sure this place has a lot of good food, but it’s just not necessarily the place for vegetarians or tacos like we were hoping based on other reviews.

  • 5/5 Mister C. 4 years ago on Google
    Nice location. Excellent local cuisine. Great service. My first time in Mexico City, and my colleague, a local, brought us here for my first dinner here. Everything I tried was delicious, and the deserts were as good to eat as they were to see. The picture I included doesn't do it justice. Don't know how prices compare, but they were much less expensive than anything of similar quality I have had in the States.

  • 3/5 Kurtis I. 3 years ago on Google
    The place was okay... authentic Mexican manu with more traditional Mexican food. Also the staff don't speak too much of English but very nice and friendly... almost all the staff had mask and face covering. The food however tasted kind a bland and bit on the sweet side... but was convinced since was very close to my hotel...

    (Translated by Google) Worst service I have ever had. We were 8 people and everyone was upset. The restaurant was empty and they only gave us one waiter but they put us at separate tables. The waiter never brought the dishes that 2 friends ordered, the broth we asked for reached the end and even though the restaurant was empty, no waiter appeared when we needed something. They never separated the account and wanted to charge us more. The manager did not even ask us for apologies while complaining to him. If you want good attention, never go to this place. (Original) Peor servicio que he tenido. Fuimos 8 personas y todos quedaron molestos. El restaurante vacío y solo nos dieron un mesero pero nos pusieron en mesas separadas. El mesero nunca trajo los platillos que ordenaron 2 amigos, el caldo que pedimos llegó hasta el final y aún estando vacío el restaurante ningún mesero se aparecía cuando necesitábamos algo. Jamás separaron la cuenta y nos quisieron cobrar demás. El gerente ni disculpas nos pidió aún quejándonos con el. Si quieren buena atención, jamás vayan a este lugar.

😐 This place is huge, and there's always a waiting line to get in, the menu is small and straighforward, but it's totally worth eating there... I would just say there are too many tables per room, and sometimes the waiters are less than attentive becsuse of the amount of customers... still worth it.
