This was a random pick while searching for a place to dine at in Mexico City. Restaurant is in a…read morecourtyard with several other nice upscale restaurants in Satellite mall. This restaurant was nicely decorated and was quiet on a Tuesday night. I'm betting it's packed on the weekend. Service was very attentive and exceeded expectations. Menus were available in English which was a plus. Appetizer of rangoons was loaded with meat. I had the spicy chicken noodles which were really tasty. Sauce was sweet and a hint of spice. Noodles had a texture more like an Italian noodle rather than what you expect with a Chinese dish. My colleague ordered a fried rice which looked moist and he almost polished off the entire huge serving. The servings here are large! A palate cleansing frozen lemonade in a shot glass with a fortune cookie was served. Very unusual and excellent. Dessert was a Coco Flan. Packed with coconut flakes and unabashedly sweet. Overall one of the best meals enjoyed in Mexico City.

First, the good things. The interior is beautiful, if not luxurious. The service is impeccable…read more I felt as though there were 3 or 4 servers serving our table of two people, attending to the details - creating a level of unnecessary formality! But I give them credit for providing excellent service! Now onto the not so good part. The prices are excessive. If you are from the US, the prices are above and beyond the US prices. The two of us spent over $100. I had not expected that. Let me give an example - 3 egg rolls for 325 pesos! That's $16 USD, or over $5 for each egg roll! A small soup was over $10 USD, not to mention how excessively salty it was! We wanted to have the Peking duck. There was no option to order 1/2 a duck as there were just two of us. So we decided to order the whole duck anyway, for about $60 USD! The duck was ok. But the pancakes and the sauce did not meet the standard, and the rice that came with it could have used a bit more cooking time. Overall, it was a highly mixed experience. I felt the most of the cost of the dinner went towards paying for the look of the restaurant and the service, very little would go to justifying the quality and the value of the food. Not recommended.

This was was not too far from where we stayed in Polanco. It's very close to the fancy high end…read moremall. We stopped here one night because I was craving something soupy. Not many places open late at night and I dont think it was even that late but there were not many places open and this restaurant only had a few patrons counting us. We order udon and a combo sushi because they had buy one get one free combo or something. The seafood udon I ordered had so much seafood in it, it was great, and it had a very yummy umami fire grilled or wok fired flavor. Staff was super friendly. I would recommend if you crave sushi and udon or ramen.

I love this place. One of at least a few locations in Mexico City, their pitch is "Street Asian…read moreCuisine." It's definitely Asian fusion, offering everything from Japanese (including sushi) to Chinese to Thai. I almost always order the spring rolls and sweet and sour sauce (vegetable or beef). The wonton soup is quite good as well. I usually change up my main dish and never leave disappointed. I can vouch for the rices, the woks, and the yakitoris. You can also build your own wok. The menu is enormous. If you can't find something here you like, I probably wouldn't want to go out to eat with you. This location is just steps from the Palacio de Hierro, a high-end mall in Polanco. If you want to escape its overpriced, overcrowded food court, come here instead.

The service was amazing and the waiter that we had amazing recommendations for both food and drinks (Tom Yum).

I had dinner at Galanga with my mom and brother a week or so ago when we were in Mexico City on…read morevacation together. I'd heard a lot of great things about Galanga (and read about it in the Michelin Guide), and because of that - and because it's vegan-friendly for my vegan mom - I chose it for one of our evenings in Mexico City. Unfortunately, the meal just didn't live up to our expectations. The restaurant is beautiful and very comfortable. But when we arrived, we were told that they were out of many things on the menu - not one dish, not two - I'd say about 8 items on the menu, including most of the dishes we were most excited to try. Ultimately, we ordered a raw scallop dish, vegan Pad Thai, and Pad Kra Pao. I enjoyed the raw scallop dish - spicy and fresh - but the other two dishes were fine (flat and maybe not as expected - the Pad Kra Pao, for example, wasn't made from ground beef but from chunks of beef that weren't the most tender but weren't bad). I also had a cocktail that was quite nice - lots of coconut and tropical flavors. The other main issue we had was with the service during our meal. While our server was extremely friendly, the service was chaotic. They brought a dish to our table that we said we hadn't ordered. They left it at the table anyway, so we figured whatever, we'll eat it. We'd had a few bites and then they came back and said we'd been right, that we hadn't ordered it, and took it away, which was strange, since they couldn't serve it to the correct table now anyway. We had to ask for another bottle of water several times - it never came, so we kept asking. We finally got one after asking three times, I believe. It seemed like the staff or kitchen were having a very off night, and that happens. But when a place is recommended by the Michelin Guide, you just expect a little more. Our experience at Galanga reminded me of trying out a restaurant that has been open for a week or two and is still in its soft opening and figuring things out. In a city with so many great restaurants, I just can't imagine I'd return, nor could I recommend it to friends that visit Mexico City. They might have just been having a tough night, but it was perhaps the most disappointing meal I've had over three trips to Mexico City.
