Best places: Mexican restaurants in Mexico City, Mexico

Soft-shell crab & spicy fish tacos in an airy dining room with an expansive plant-filled patio.

🫤 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 G...

Buzzy eatery for Mexican dining & drinking, fitted with a skylight, greenery & string lights.

👍 The place is inviting, the location inside via515 is convenient and great. Service is superb, quick and friendly. Prices are good and good value. If I get picky, tacos could have a tad bit more stuffing and some of the fillings need more flavor. I expected more from costilla and tocino. The punch dr...

👍👍 After being to the top 10 restaurants to go to in Mexico city says every website like pujol or nico's or aleli, this was actually our favorite. The staff were so nice, and the food was inventive but authentic at the same time. I would 100% go back here again.

👍👍 Terrific breakfast, brunch, and lunches were had here by my wife and I. The service is excellent! The hot chocolate is an absolute must - though I recommend sharing it between two adults as it is quite rich and very strong. The breakfast menu is delightful with terrific flavour. Not too spicy - just...

👍 Excellent place for breakfast and lunch. Reasonable prices with very tasty food. Ideal for foreigners walking and visiting San Angel. Sometimes you have to wait berween 60 and 90 minutes for a table in rush hour

👍👍 OMG! What a wonderful culinary experience! The food was AWESOME FANTASTIC DELICIOUS!!!!! The service outstanding. We had 3 waiters instantly addressing our smallest requests. I can't decide on a single "best thing". We had shrimp ceviche with mango, cod fish mini sandwiches, salmon in mango sauce,...

Modern Mexican cuisine & a wine selection in an elegant restaurant housed in a historic building.

👍👍 Chill ambience. Good selection of cocktails. Gluten free snacks. Cool art to look around as you sip your drinks. If you ever feel like having drinks in a gallery, this is a good place to start your evening.

😐 I used to go to Porfirio's Altavista (San Ángel) which was closed a couple of years ago. When I learned about this new restaurant site in Coyoacán (Oasis Mall) I decided to visit it. To be honest I think this last experience was not as good as I used to have in the former site in Altavista. Even th...

👍👍 Increible!!! Muchos perros muy buenitos para ice paws ❤️ Incredible food!!! And so many dogs stop by for the ice paws ❤️

👍👍 This chill taco place is so good. Ordered almost all of them to try. Each one had unique bold flavor. So good. Cannot recommend enough. New favorite spot. Great service and excellent tacos.

👍 We had the Sopa de Lima, a Taco de Cochinita Pibil, a Papadzules and a coco-milk dessert which name I forgot. We also added the Agua de Horchata and Agua de Guanabana. While the Taco was good and the Papadzules was absolutely amazing (though both were so heavy that we could eat only one each), the...
