Marco Polo is our favorite pizza restaurant in Cuernavaca…read more The pizzas are delicious. I love the four cheese with bacon and onion. But pretty much anything you order is going to be delicious. They have a variety of Italian dishes, pasta and salads too. Their wine list is extensive. Their service is always spot-on. But what makes Marco Polo unique is it's location and the view of the cathedral, especially from one of the balcony tables. Highly recommended.

The restaurant is cute with both indoor and outdoor seating (out on the patio and upstairs…read morebalcony); however, the pasta was absolutely TERRIBLE. We ordered the tri pasta (marinara fettuccine, a pesto spaghetti, & some sort of ravioli) and a pesto pasta (I chose fettuccine), and both plates were not only BLAND, but all the pasta was overcooked. In Italy, pasta is cooked al dente, which means 'to the bite.' There's a slight chewiness to the pasta. The pasta here is most certainly not al dente. Who wants to eat soggy pasta?! Even the Japanese know how to cook pasta. I think the chefs at Marco Polo should travel to Italy, dine on the pasta there, take a cooking lesson, and learn to bring the techniques from Italy back to Cuernavaca. The calamari plate was also disappointing -- the calamari needs to be crispier. These were rubbery. Also, the baked potato was bland. As for drinks: both mango margarita and mango mezcalita were tasty. Service was prompt and attentive. Until Marco Polo improves their "Italian" cooking skills, yourself the time, money, and appetite by dining elsewhere. El restaurante es bonito, con mesas tanto en el interior como en el exterior (en el patio y en el balcón); sin embargo, la pasta estaba absolutamente TERRIBLE. Pedimos la pasta tri (fettuccine a la marinara, espaguetis al pesto y una especie de raviolis) y una pasta al pesto (yo elegí fettuccine), y ambos platos no solo estaban INSÍPIDOS, sino que toda la pasta estaba demasiado cocida. En Italia, la pasta se cocina al dente, lo que significa "al morder". La pasta está un poco masticable. La pasta de aquí, desde luego, no está al dente. ¿A quién le apetece comer pasta pastosa? Hasta los japoneses saben cocinar pasta. Creo que los chefs de Marco Polo deberían viajar a Italia, probar la pasta de allí, tomar una clase de cocina y aprender a traer las técnicas italianas a Cuernavaca. El plato de calamares también fue decepcionante; los calamares deberían estar más crujientes. Estaban gomosos. Además, la papa al horno estaba insípida. En cuanto a las bebidas: tanto la margarita de mango como la mezcalita de mango estaban deliciosas. El servicio fue rápido y atento. Hasta que Marco Polo mejore sus habilidades culinarias italianas, gaste tiempo, dinero y apetito comiendo en otro lugar.

We stumbled into Merkava after flying into CDMX. Our Airbnb was not available yet so we wanted a…read morecomfortable, air conditioned restaurant where we could kill at least 1.5 hours. Merkava is a beautiful little restaurant in La Condesa with both indoor and outdoor seating. As mentioned, we were tired from traveling and picked the cool, indoor seating and enjoyed the nice decor. We started with hummus and, not realizing it came with pita, also ordered the house bread. The hummus was a huge portion, enough to feed a group of 7-8 and came with a pouch of several warm pitas. The hummus was homemade and a bit chunky. The house bread was even better, coils of bread with tahini butter, serrano chili oil, and a tomato cumin sauce. The bread was fantastic, warm from being freshly baked and with buttery layers and the variety of dipping sauces was pleasant for dipping. A show-stopper of a dish was the whole roasted cauliflower served with zaatar, yogurt, and mint. Our head was cut into manageable portions for us, but interestingly, they served the adjacent table with a whole head for a more dramatic presentation. The cauliflower was tender and its mild flavor was enhanced by the zaatar spices. The fish of the day was the better of the two entrees. We liked the sauteed vegetables with lentils that it was served with, much like a ratatouille with lentils, along with a parsley sauce and grilled lemon. The wagyu kebabs were an odd texture, crumbled and dry. The restaurant provided a complimentary bite of dessert, a fruit (date, apricot) baklava of sorts that was a sweet bite to end the meal. All in all, we had a good meal at Merkava.
