Stellar bar food, with my partner stating they were some of the best Fish Tacos she had ever had (and she is a San Diego native, so that's high praise). I'm not going to lie, we got there pretty late and had already been out and about having a great time, but the staff were helpful and fun, helping us not butcher Spanish as much and steer us in the direction of the right rums (this is the place responsible for our newfound love of a PROPER Cuba Libre). I will go so far to say this was a highlight of our trip and will be revisited.

This restaurant s well known for its molletes, and I had an urge to try it out. I ordered the…read moremolletes gratinados that included three separate pieces of the molletes with queso manchego. My girlfriend ordered a more common and safe platter called espagueti Alfredo. I also ordered the te manzanilla. All of our food was made to order including the manzanilla tea. The restaurant is more like an open space cafeteria and it seemed like the place was nearly full. Its a very interesting place and you can tell by some of the antique furniture and old style coffee grinder. I would bet that this restaurant was even more popular fifty years ago. Our server was very attentive even though she seemed very over-worked. She came by more than three times to make sure everything was good for us.

Apparently this is once where Guevara and Castro met before, to plan their return to Cuba. Didn't know that before walking in. Also it was a journalist hotspot back then because it is near newspaper offices. Big open space inside, doesn't look like anything have change over the years and stay the same since 1950s. Very unique, nice to sit down and enjoy breakfast in this time capsule. Menu is full of Mexican classic breakfast. Food comes out quick and hot and very delicious. I did walk in at an odd time and there were no one there.

Cornmeal Gold in Polanco…read more Órale Arepa offers a polished setting in Mexico City's high-end Polanco district, and with that comes a matching price tag--nearly $50 USD for a late lunch for two. Expected for the neighborhood, but steep for what is, at heart, elevated Venezuelan street food. We ordered the arepa tasting: six warm, griddled half-arepas served like DIY fajitas, with two meats, three cheeses, and three house-made sauces (chipotle, garlic, and avocado). The format encouraged creativity, but 60% of the offerings leaned on cheeses--mostly mild, forgettable, and largely untouched on our plates. The grilled and pulled meats were solid, as were the arepa bases: crisp-edged, warm, and fragrant. The sauces helped pull it all together, though often had to do too much of the flavor work. A side of avocado and underripe tomato did little to elevate the meal. Service was attentive and kind--our server's advice not to over-order was spot on. But while the experience was pleasant, the food fell short of memorable. For the price, there simply wasn't enough depth or distinction. A generous 3 stars. #PolancoDining #ArepaReconsidered #CDMXEats Oro de Maíz en Polanco Órale Arepa se presenta con estilo en la exclusiva zona de Polanco, y su precio lo refleja: casi $50 USD por un almuerzo tardío para dos. Comprensible por la ubicación, pero elevado para lo que esencialmente es comida callejera venezolana, por más refinada que sea. Elegimos la degustación de arepas: seis medias piezas servidas como fajitas para armar, con dos tipos de carne, tres quesos y tres salsas caseras (chipotle, ajo y aguacate). Aunque el formato es divertido, el 60% del contenido se basaba en quesos poco memorables que apenas tocamos. Las carnes cumplieron y las bases de arepa fueron lo mejor: calientes, bien cocidas, con aroma y textura. Las salsas hicieron lo posible por levantar el conjunto. El acompañamiento de aguacate y jitomate no aportó mucho, especialmente con el jitomate sin madurar. El servicio fue atento y honesto--nos advirtieron amablemente sobre las porciones--pero la comida no alcanzó el nivel que el precio prometía. Una experiencia correcta, sí, pero sin el impacto que esperábamos. Tres estrellas, por mérito del servicio más que del sabor. #ComerEnPolanco #DegustaciónSinSorpresa #CDMXFood

For appetizers, we ordered the tostones con guacamole (green fried plantain slices with guacamole) and tequeños de cachapa (sweet corn cheese sticks) & I am so glad about that choice!! As someone who detests bananas and plantains, the tostones were actually delicious! Not a strong banana/plantain taste and the little coleslaw + guacamole were a great touch. I honestly cannot say enough good things about the fried cheese sticks. The mix of sweet and savory was perfection! Now, onto the star of the show: the arepa llanera. WOW. Just absolutely incredible. The arepa itself was delicious and crispy, the cheese was so good, and the beef was marinated and perfectly tender. This place is a must go in CDMX!
