The first meal of the trip is the most important. It sets the tone. The trip goes how that first meal goes, and I'd gotten so many passionate recommendations for El Turix, it became the obvious choice. I called the uber straight to the promised land, and hopped out with my luggage, into a run down, no frills interior. Just how I like it. I wish the written word could do any justice to how it smelled in here, but I won't even try. I can only imagine it is what a teenage girl feels when she walks into a Sephora. I ordered 4 cochinita pibil tacos, which is the only thing on the menu. Cochinita Pibil is a traditional Mexican dish that is slow roasted pulled pork. They pull the tortillas off the griddle and put them into this enormous pan of the pibil to give them a little bit of the juice and glisten from the pork juice. They then STUFF each taco, roll them up, and hand them to you on a plastic plate. I topped them off with the salsa verde and dug into them right outside. These babies actually exceeded my expectations. I was FLOATIN. Pork juice leaking out on every bite with flavor that can only be obtained through that traditional slow roast. It truly set the tone for the rest of the trip. This is the kind of simple, well executed meal that makes me grateful to be alive. IG @johnny.novo Tiktok @jnov__ Substack @johnnynovo

The ingredients were very good, but to be upfront, the edge crust was pretty lean. It was more like a crisp flat bread than what you would expect from a Neapolitan pizza. Nonetheless, it was still very good as the toppings were so well seasoned and super flavorful. The burrata with pesto and prosciutto was so good. And the wine pours are plentiful. A great stop in Polanco!

They tell md the tacos al pastor are particularly good and I'm happy with the generous nopal and the mushroom tacos and quesadillas. There's a large variety of salsas in all stages of picante. My husband likes the one in the molcajete the best. I like the variety, otherwise vegetable tacos can get boring. The seasonal fruit aguas are tasty and there's an unsweetened option. The servers are super nice. They always remember us and actually remember that I don't like cilantro and onions, but that my husband does. The ambiance is casual. I didn't take away a star, but the children begging can be a problem. One girl snuck up behind me and purposely coughed all over my food. I packed my tacos for her, but told her to ask politely if she's hungry (she looks very well fed and groomed). We stopped going for a while after that encounter, but we like the tacos. She seems to avoid us now.
