    My husband and I chose San Ángel Inn for our last dinner in Mexico City on our visit to the city a…read morefew weeks ago. I've always want to go because of its history and because I'd heard it is beautiful. It is beautiful. The history: San Ángel Inn is located in a former hacienda, built in 1616. From 1806-1900, the hacienda served as a country house for various owners, and it became a hotel in 1907 - that's why it's still called San Ángel Inn to this day. The structure was declared a "Colonial Monument" by the National Institute of Anthropology and History in 1937. After a brief stint as a university-affiliated building, it became a restaurant on June 13, 1963. So when you eat at San Ángel Inn, you're eating at restaurant with a storied and incredible history. The building is absolutely beautiful. We were seated at a table in the courtyard which, in December, was incredibly special: tons of nochebuenas/poinsettias, tons of holiday decor, live piano music, a fountain, and more. It's a beautiful restaurant, perfect for a special occasion meal (we saw lots of families having dinner together). It's a wonderful setting for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The menu is incredible - broad and varied with dishes from throughout Mexico. It was hard to choose what to order. We had some wine, which we enjoyed with the starters they brought (bread rolls and butter, veggies with a creamy dip). My husband started with the poblano pepper cream soup, which was to die for. I started with the Aztec Tortilla Soup, which is poured tableside and which you can customize with certain ingredients they ask you about during the tableside pour (I said yes to everything, including chicharrones). He had a small dish of shrimp with orange mole for his entree, while I ordered a traditional Mexican holiday dish they had on the menu for the Christmas season: romeritos with shrimp, nopales, and potatoes in a mole sauce. If you're looking for a traditional, beautiful, special meal in Mexico City, I highly recommend dinner at San Ángel Inn. It's a special place and a meal here is a great excuse to spend some time in the beautiful neighborhood of San Ángel.

    I came to Maque after seeing so many great reviews on TikTok and Yelp and was really excited to try…read moreit for lunch. It was surprisingly empty for a Monday, so we thought it would be a great time to visit. We were seated and placed our order at 1:21 PM. Our drinks didn't arrive until about 20 minutes later, and our food took nearly 50 minutes. The timing was especially frustrating because there were very few people dining at the time. The restaurant itself is beautiful, and the food was actually really good. Unfortunately, the service completely overshadowed the experience. During the wait, none of the staff checked in on us, apologized for the delay, or gave us any updates. Instead, several employees were sitting on their phones while we waited. To make matters worse, another group that was seated after us received their food in about 15 minutes. I'm not someone who usually leaves negative reviews, but this experience was disappointing enough that I felt it was worth sharing. I'm hoping this was just an off day because the food has a lot of potential. As it stands, I'm not sure I'd recommend it or return the next time I'm in Mexico City.

    My husband and I were exploring San Ángel for an afternoon on our recent trip to Mexico City, and…read morewe happened upon Maque Café when we were looking for a bite to eat for lunch. There are plenty of other places to eat in the neighborhood, but we saw Maque Café with its outdoor seating near a fountain and among numerous trees and we were sold. The menu is simple and clean (with items leaning towards European while still having Mexican cuisine options) with lots of healthier options. I ordered a chicken breast stuffed with goat cheese in a tamarind sauce with some healthy grains and steamed vegetables. It was exactly the kind of light dish I hoping for, and I really enjoyed it with a freshly squeezed juice and a coffee. The service was good, and it was just a lovely place to enjoy a meal in San Ángel - the kind of place I'd love to sit with a book and relax for a few hours! I'd be happy to return.
