We started with samosas and then had a shrimp dish, mussels, and a chicken dish. The shrimp was my favorite. A unique flavor.

We'd made a reservation in advance and were seated right away when we arrived on a Friday afternoon. The space itself was surprisingly plain and industrial - grey walls, almost no decor. For a place with a menu with so much personality, I was surprised that the interior had almost none. For drinks, I ordered a glass of natural white wine, which was very good. The 3 of us ordered a bunch of items to share family-style, starting with the Samosas, Paratha Quesadilla, Ceviche, and Camarones Pa'pelar. These were by far the most impressive items of the night! The texture of the Samosas was absolutely perfect, and it was hard to decide if the beef or potato ones were more delicious. The Paratha Quesadilla was such satisfying comfort food and the Ceviche was incredibly fresh and tasty. The Camarones Pa'pelar were super flavorful and the dipping sauce truly blew my mind. However after this, things went a little downhill for me. The Kuku Poussin was tasty but not as innovative as the appetizer dishes. And unfortunately I just wasn't a fan of the Whole Red Snapper. We also tried two desserts - the Tamal de Chocolate and Chai Tres Leches - but neither one blew me away. The concept of a Chai Tres Leches sounded so good but although the texture was nice, I felt like it was missing some sweetness. Overall though, we still enjoyed our meal and highly recommend trying the small plates!

DON'T TRUST CHAT GPT - Usually Chat GPT is a good source to give you recommendations but for some…read moreunbeknownst reason to me it recommends Taj Mahal as the best Indian in Mexico City. Havining spent more than a few weeks of my life in India, I can say with certainty this was a poor representation. I don't like to be mean, this is just based on facts. The naan was more like pita, the tandoori chicken was served presliced and dry, the raita was literally just a scoop of unflavored yogurt, and the chicken tikka masala had almost no flavor. The costs were relatively high, the service was very very, slow, even by local standards, and the restaurant itself was a but dated and weathered. So overall not the best ambiance, mid at best. Maybe it was an off nite, maybe they had a substitufe chef that night, but overall even in a city known for very few Indian restaurants, I personally cannot recommend anything we ordered or the experience. Wait no, the cardamom tea was good and the mango lassi was pretty decent. But otherwise this is the unfortunate truth about our experience. Happy eating from John Seeto!

But Tandoor near Polanco is a nicely decorated, open, spacious, and well serviced option. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the dishes while slightly expensive are still a reasonable value for the quality. Purists will not appreciate the beef dishes or the Pakistani dishes sprinkled into the menu, and the dishes are notably lighter in ghee so less rich than true India cooking, but the flavors are solid and the variety is good. They also serve free mint and classic raitas and some mango pickle with your meal, which each are excellent. Overall while you can find reasons to nitpick on authenticity, if you can get over that you can have a genuinely nice meal in a lovely place. All that said the naan was just meh, so maybe explore the other breads. Overall worth a visit so happy eating from John Seeto!

Tandor: The Perfect Curry Fix in Mexico City…read more After days of indulging in all the tacos I could find--because how could you not?--a late-night craving for curry struck. As one does, I set out with Google Maps in hand (and maybe a quick peek at Yelp for good measure) and walked until I found Tandor, a cozy spot that promised to satisfy my longing for something rich, spicy, and comforting. The restaurant exuded a warm, inviting vibe, the kind of place that makes you want to linger over a pint of Kingfisher while your meal is being prepared. Which is exactly what I did. Sitting with my beer, I watched the staff expertly craft the dishes I'd soon be taking back to my hotel room. Once home, I unwrapped my takeaway, and Tandor delivered exactly what I was hoping for: a good, solid curry. The flavors were bold yet balanced, the portions generous, and every bite hit that familiar, comforting note that makes curry such a universal favorite. If you find yourself in Mexico City with a craving for Indian food, look no further. Tandor will take care of you, no fuss, no frills--just great curry and a satisfying experience.
