everything from the ambiance and decor to the artistic plating and presentation was lovely. our servers, alex and christopher, were so attentive and kind! the dishes themselves, although gorgeous, were good but not mindblowing. the pozole and chicken mole felt rather underwhelming. our favorites were the short ribs and fish. however, the sweet corn brulee dessert was fabulous (seasonal menu)!! crispy burnt sugar top breaks into a silky custard that you have along with a smoky tortilla chip. subtly sweet and layered with flavor. overall an enchanting experience! read more

Filigrana was our first meal in Mexico City. The food and cocktails were delicious and presented well. I would highly recommend the Filigrana Cocktail for an interesting mescal cocktail. The service was impeccable and the restaurant is beautiful. It was a lovely place to have our first meal in CDMX. read more

On my second trip to Mexico City , I vowed to focus on seeing more of the cultural sites which I did but a trip to this city requires at least one good restaurant choice . This time around , I did my own research instead of asking for recommendations. I'm happy with my choice . I went on a Monday night which was a bit on the quiet side which is understandable. It's not located in Polanco or a busier food traffic area. People who dined here came intentionally based on my observation, as I did and I bet it's mostly because of the food . This is a tasting farm to table type of place . Each dish was served close to perfection and neither too big or small but just right . The service was very attentive . Each dish was explained well . The plate settings were changed with every meal , water was refilled frequently as needed . We had the cauliflower, mushroom tamale , fish and ceviche . We weren't very hungry which was a shame as I wanted to try the other dishes and what we ordered was just perfect for the 4 of us . It also allowed us to have some delicious desserts . I would like to have to opportunity to come back at a different day like a Friday to see if there are more people and hence a different vibe . We sat outside which was perfect with the weather but the mosquitoes feasted on my American blood (j/k). I would like to experience dining indoors in the well decorated beautiful space with high ceilings. read more

OVERALL EXPERIENCE: I would definitely be back! The food and service was amazing! AMBIANCE: Noise level is average. Chic decor. DRESS CODE: Smart casual/business casual. ORDERED: - Black Rice (must order!) - White Fish (cooked very well, and flavors were amazing!) - Beef Tongue (sOoOo tender!!) - Sorbet and Ice Cream Fair - Coconut Milk Flan - DRINKS: La Charra Brava, Love is also in the Air, The Threads of Life (all super good!) - I love that they brought out a small thank you dessert with a toy! This made it feel extra special, and an expression of appreciation. Unfortunately, you do not get to keep the toy LOL SERVICE: Service was exceptional! However, I wasn't a fan of them quickly coming to pick up the plates. Especially if other people in your party are still eating. Highly recommend that plates are not picked up until the entire party is done. It felt rushed, and not relaxed. PRICE: ~ $80 US Food: 5/5 stars Service: 4/5 stars Venue: 4/5 read more

The food at Filigrana is nothing less than edible art. It's apparent as soon as you step through the door that every detail from the atmosphere to the flavors & presentation have been carefully considered and delivered with passion. There were no bad bites during my dinner here. The service was attentive, and I wanted for nothing. I would definitely recommend making time for Filigrana should you ever find yourself in CDMX. read more

There are so many great restaurants in Mexico City, but I think Filigrana stands above them all. Everything about her meal was fabulous. The decor, the creativity, the service and mouthwatering food. read more

My husband and I were devout fans of Dulce Patria (another restaurant by Martha Ortiz). Dulce Patria was hands down the best restaurant, gastronomic experience we've both ever had, and every time we went to CDMX we made sure to stop by. Unfortunately during covid they closed, and then we heard Filigrana was opening. Yes the ambiance is phenomenal, the food was amazing, the service impecable but it falls short when compared to Dulce Patria. We will definitely be returning and simultaneously hoping Dulce Patria reopens so we can return. read more

This was a nice, high-end dinner/drinks spot. The interior is really lovely with high ceilings and intentional decor. The staff and service was also a high point. They were very attentive and really rolled out the red carpet for you with every course - bringing small extras inbetween to taste. Unfortunately, the food fell a bit flat in my opinion. It wasn't bad, but for the price it wasn't anything too memorable. The drinks in my opinion stood out more. read more

I just found my new favorite brunch place in Mexico City. A contemporary fusion-Mexican restaurant at a nice modern location. The food was excellent. The exotic green juices and mimosas were tasty and nicely decorated. The artistic concha was delicious and pretty. The Solar chilaquiles with yellow tomatoes spice and sunny side egg was my favorite item on the menu, yet you can't go wrong with the eggs in a casserole with mole either. The French toast with mascarpone cheese, yogurt, honey and fruit was by far the best French toast I have ever tried. The service was fast and attentive,m. Making reservations in OpenTable is recommended. read more

Fabulous meal, great service, atmosphere. Priced just right. We ordered: an appetizer, entrees, dessert. Every bite was a pleasure.

Wow, you must get the mole. I never thought i liked mole, but its only because i never had mole like this. The open face quesidilla was more salad then quesidilla and that was a good thing, i really really good thing. Started off with the guac which i think is a must. Amazing service, just a wonderful evening. Oh, dont forget to try their cocktails and you are in for a special treat at the end. read more

Beautiful restaurant w incredible menu and preparations. Great service and wonderful cocktails. I highly recommend this place.

Amazing amazing amazing! I walked passed this restaurant for 2 years without trying it. It's a smaller restaurant with only indoor seating. Most tables only seat 4 people, which is plenty for the romantic vibe they set. Drinks and food were 5 stars, everything we ordered was great.. I especially liked to chicken mole - and I'm not a mole type of person. Service was also great, our server spoke decent English. They also gave us a complimentary dessert which was really cute - just a few pieces of candy. The restaurant sits in condesa, with plenty of walkable bars, cafes, and night life. read more

Service was great but they checked in on us so often that it felt a little bit disruptive. The food was below mediocre - great presentation but taste was disappointing to say the least. We ordered 3 dishes and left super hungry. They did offer us a cute little set of dessert at the end which was nice! Overall would not recommend - save your money. read more

Amazing food. Great atmosphere. My fav food experience in Mexico City. And I went to Pujol as well.

BEWARE to check pricing on any wine they offer you! Be sure to ask for the wine list and communicate well about your choice. We would have left a positive review describing the really quaint ambiance and the food, but when we were presented with the bill to pay, we could not believe it! When we first sat down and began reviewing the menu, they asked my husband and I if we wanted some wine with our dinner and asked if we preferred red or white. We said red and they described a red wine they recommended for our meal. It sounded good and we said yes, thinking it was by the glass. They brought out a bottle, uncorked it and poured a tasting amount and asked us if we liked it and we did. It was a Mexican blend and it was very good and we figured out we were actually getting a bottle of it, not a glass. Fine. We were able to drink a little more than half the bottle between the 2 of us and had to leave the rest. However, when we received our bill, THE BOTTLE OF WINE WAS $4,000 PESOS. Wow! For that reason alone, we will never go back. read more

I can't rate this place highly enough, if I could give it ten stars I would. The service was absolutely incredible, the ambiance and aesthetic of the restaurant was amazing and the food was ridiculous. My partner and I came in on a whim for a couple cocktails and some appetizers and were blown away. I had the filigranita cocktail with mezcal, tepache, citrus and insect foam and I've never been so blown away by a cocktail. We shared the guacamole which had a gold dipped chapuline sitting on top of it which was the perfect high brow/ low brow flair I love to see. The potato croquettes were other worldly and the salsa verde used as the base sauce had the perfect acidity, mild heat with a well rounded flavor and texturally was immaculate. The totopos that came with the guacamole blew my mind. I sat there sniffing them and holding them up to the candle to appreciate the stained glass look that they had. They almost tasted like they had nuts and seeds folded in but the server told me it was just really high quality nixtamilized corn from Oaxaca that it seems they coarsley ground. I wish I could have them in my pantry at all times to eat with absolutely every meal for the remainder of my life. They treated us to some home made marshmallows for dessert that we roasted at the table which was an awesome touch. Having been to some amazing places in CDMX such as Quintonil and Pujol, I would honestly rate this place higher. Honestly this was on par with some two and even three Michelin star meals I've had around the world. I can not recommend Filigrana enough and will certainly be here every time I'm in the city, probably multiple times. read more

The only disappointment was that they initially tried to sit us outside. Although there were awnings, it was raining and a bit chilly. No other guests were seated there and they had plenty of seating inside. We were well-dressed, groomed, and nicely presentable. Other seated guests inside were very casual and wearing jeans, poofy jackets, and crocs. I think they were looking for guests who would take them up on their "outside seating" idea. The food was good, but that experience started us on a sour note. If they would have asked us whether we wanted inside or outside seating, the result of where we sat would've been the same, but we would've had a much better experience! read more

Service was excellent! Came here for a bday dinner. The ambiance and their drinks were perfect!
