    Chicken mole
    Vivian M.

    Me elcanta el ambiente, muy fina y acogedora right inside the nice mall. Very nice waiters. I just noticed every different parts of Mexico have different types of dishes, they ALL tastes good! Every time we go a trip, we always try restaurants that we don't have in San Diego. Cocina El Bajio is good. I ordered grilled pollo bien hecho quemado con spanish arroz. En general muy buena experiencia.

    It was a perfect day for an awesome breakfast and since we were close to, we figured that this restaurant was as good as any. My wife and I started out with cafe Americano, along with two concha pastries. The coffee tasted pretty typical and so did the conchas which I have had several times before. Our Server was great and he spoke pretty good English which made things easier for us. I ordered the huevos ala Mexicana breakfast meal and it was a good portion with refried beans on the side. My wife chose the two hotcakes with marmelada breakfast. We both also ordered orange juice. Our breakfast was very good, and when we needed ketchup and salsa, our Server was fast to respond. The overall ambiance of the ace was peaceful. We were both seated in their outdoor section within the mall.

    Amazing food. Great service. Be patient with translation if you don't know Spanish because the staff certainly is patient with you. Nice ambiance for the breakfast rush. Great accommodation. Right inside the mall.

    Great start to our food crawl in Mexico City. Air conditioned place to sit down and eat amazing street food in a mall. I got 3 tacos with all the toppings--lengua, barbacoa and carnitas. Excited about the taco carts but this place is close to my hotel so I'll be back. My peers tell me the Chilaquiles are fiery. Phffft.

    The waiter was incredibly nice and helpful. Feel free to ask for an English menu. The chips and sauce were yummy as well as the guacamole that come on the side of my dish. I had asked for my beef to be cooked medium, but it was quite raw. The waiter offered to have it cooked some more. The tiramisu was delightful!

    Amazing Mexican hot chocolate and pan dulce complementary

    This is an unpretentious and elegant restaurant that ranks among the finest we have visited. The service was pefectly attentive and the food was delicious. From the complimenrary whipped (at the table) hot chocolate and pan dulce (lightest, flakiest croisants this side of Paris), to the zuchinni flower omlette and the delicious pork rib meat entree, everything was perfectly seasoned. The refried beans are the best I have ever had. Then the chocolate gorditas made a perfect compliment as desert to a second serving of the hot chocolate. For those of us who tend to splatter sauces on our clothes, request a white cloth bib, you will not be the only one! Provecho!

    Excellent restaurant. Beautiful interior. Service was great, the prices were very reasonable. We paid about $35.00usd for dinner and a couple shots of tequila. Extensive drink menu. I had enchiladas verde and my wife had chicken tostadas. Her chicken was cold as in chicken salad style but still very good. Highly recommend this place.

    Service was very good and the food came out fast. The enchiladas verde was really good and the chips and salsa they give you is great.

    Gross tortilla soup, tasted like salty tomato soup. Tostadas were burned and the chicken was bland and flavorless. Do not eat here
