    Decent lounge located in Terminal 1 at Mexico City's ginormous airport. Food options are limited but decent quality. I ordered: Ham & Cheese sandwich, it was basic but good tasting. Beef Tacos: Mexico no doubt has great tacos. This lounge has simple ones but tasty enough for me to eat four of them. Chicken soup: it was more vegetable soup than chicken. It was low quality. Beverages: nice variety of beverages. My wife drank a Negro Modelo. I had a Diet Coke. Service was ok. Restrooms weren't that good for lounge standards. To me lounges get rated on four things, 1) comfortable seating, 2) food, 3) restrooms, 4) charging stations. This place was average at every aspect except the restroom. But why am I complaining? It's better than sitting at the gates...

    Near gate 33. Check in desk is nice. Stairs to lower level are narrow and shabby. The lounge is small, furniture is old and broken down. This was our first time using our preferred pass and while we figure that this one is not representative of most, it was not a good introductory experience. They really should upgrade the lounge, it is not representative of the brand. We had some lukewarm coffee and left for the United lounge which was lovely. Staff was of friendly.

    Basic food, nice service... I come here every time I fly from MEX. recommended. They have different meals depending on the time of day.

    I got to use my Priority Pass for this lounge in the Mexico City airport, terminal 1. Located next to my gate flying American Airlines back to the states. It's pretty tiny and you take an elevator or the stairs to go down. There's only 1 single use bathroom, there are seats and the view is of the tarmac. You have to order your food through the QR code on the phone even though food is on display the workers insist. You're greeted with a beverage and they have plenty of options. I ended up getting some beef tacos and dessert. I took some pastries to go for my flight but they seemed strict and didn't want us serving ourselves. I usually try to take snacks for the flight but I got a little. Not too crowded so it's good to have your own charges and seats.

    Come here if only to escape the crowd upstairs--social distancing is achieved here by limiting capacity to 50%. Decent selection of snacks, soft drinks, beer and coffee to order. Sandwiches and entrees can be ordered--but they take about 15 minutes to arrive. The eggs with ham were fluffy and not overly seasoned. The bistec tacos were outstanding! Tarmac level view of the planes outside. Extremely efficient and cheerful waitstaff.

    The lounge is downstairs from the main floor.

    If you're familiar with the airport here you'll understand why this lounge is so small. But hey, it beats having to sit in the seats by the gate. Terminal 1 has two lounges, but one requires a reservation. We tried to get into Lounge 19 but couldn't. But, there is a golf cart available that can take you to this lounge. It's by gate 33. Just ask the people about it at the front desk. Our flight was departing from gate 13, so we were very grateful to have found the gentleman with the golf cart to drive us there and back. We did tip him a few bucks, but it is not mandatory. The service was okay. I could tell that they were short staffed so of course that causes a little stress to the employees. The food was good, but my tacos were cold. I also ordered a flan with my meal and didn't get it. A few minutes later, I ordered another one. Nothing. I decided to just let it go. They must've been out of flan, but nobody thought it was necessary to notify me. There are about 6 monitors in here and not 1 had the flight information displayed. However, the staff can radio upstairs for flight info, so don't worry. You just have to remember to do so. The restroom was out of supplies, but like I mentioned. It's a step up from having to sit outside by the gate. With the right amount of staff and some changes in the kitchen, specifically related to serving tacos with cold tortillas, this little lounge has potential. Stop by if you can before a flight. It's better than sitting upstairs with everyone else.

    This lounge was great! Especially when the gates are right there 29+. It's usually half empty or less so that is a plus. Wifi goes on and off but mainly on most of the time. Bunch of great basic light beers, almost no hard liquor selections but they have some fresh made dishes. Servers are always attentive and they put up some random cartoons once in a while, was nice. Would defintiely come back if my gates are in this section.

    This was a great option for a lounge close to the gates as opposed to a pre-security option. The lounge is small, and not the best air circulation, and seating was at a premium during my visit. The setup for orders requires using a QR code scan and then the staff will bring your food to you. Appreciated having a non-buffet option, limiting the number of hands over the food. There were limited vegetarian options but at least they were available.

    While there are better lounges in MEX if you have time to time walk to them, this place is definitely a worthy detour from the boarding gates.

    The MEX airport is under construction, so it seems all the lounges moved around. The Priority Pass…read moreshowed this lounge was elsewhere, but I came across it trying to find the Centurion Lounge. I don't know how this lounge got all the good reviews. Seating was limited. Self-served food was subpar and no dishes or utensils. The server gave us a menu and never came back to take our order. We had to order the food at the bar. (Priority Pass gives you one main dish per person and one drink per person. Other items on the menu are separately charged as noted.) I don't have a strong urge to come back. I'd rather check out other lounges if I'm back in Mexico City airport.

It is definitely not a bad way of killing time as they assign you a recliner seat, where you can have wait service for a limited menu of food and soft drink. Comfort level is not bad, but it was too warm for my preference. The place had no AC and it was cooled with some fans blowing lightly. If you are flying Volaris, this is conveniently located and you will find this lounge close to gate 19. They had a limited buffet of soups, salads, and breads. I didn't indulge in that. I thought of ordering a burger but ended up ordering a mollete with cochinita pibil. Wasn't bad but wasn't great either. Also got some cold water and coca cola. The coca cola was served with ice, but the fountain drinks were a little flat. Overall, the experience was okay and far better than being at the gate without inclusive food/drinks. Service was friendly and was happy to have access to clean bathrooms. Apparently, they intermittently have manicures and massages; however, I didn't see that as I came for a relatively late flight.

    Right now La Terraza is the only AM lounge in Mexico City Airport because they are doing…read morerenovations to the Salon Premier. This means that all the SkyTeam elites and business class passengers are cramming in the lounge. The lounge is always filled with people, and outside there's always a crowd of people waiting to get in. During my most recent visit today, I waited a little bit over an hour to get in. You can only start being on the waitlist 3 hours before your AM flight. To kill some time I went to the VIP lounge across the hall, where the wait was substantially less. I imagine that most people at La Terraza stay here for a while, while VIP lounge people come and go. Like other reviewers mentioned, there's not much food or drinks available for self serve. There's usually tortilla chips and different salsas where you can make chilaquiles. There's some chips, peanuts.. typical bar food, fitting since La Terraza does give off bar vibes. However, if you ask the staff, they'll usually have more items available in the kitchen. In terms of drinks, in self serve area, there isn't much either besides water, soft drinks, coconut water, electrolyte water, non alcoholic beer. All the alcoholic beverages will be ordered by staff/servers or at the bar! For now, this will do until the new AM lounge opens up. La Terraza will remind very crowded until then. Not the best place to "relax" before a flight. No bueno.

    Quite a sub par lounge all around. However, I appreciated having this as an option in an airport…read morethat is under reconstruction.
