    This place is amazing! Creative and delicious dishes with staff that truly wants you to have the best experience. Our server, Memo, could not have been better. He, along with his colleagues, were so attentive and always kept our water filled and our table neat. He gave the best recommendations and truly made our visit so memorable. We can't wait to come back!

    Rising like a phoenix from the ashes to write this review 4 years later. :) I went to Mexico City with several friends for New Year's in 2020, and the entire trip was magical from the mezcal bar where we brought in the new year to the museums and restaurants, where I was in my happy place eating squash blossoms (flor de calabaza) every single day. I came to Limosneros with one of my friends from the group for dinner one evening, and I took full advantage of the opportunity to order dishes that I would never find back home. It turned out to be a sensational journey in texture, taste, flavor contrasts, and new food discoveries as everything was absolutely exquisite!

    My partner brought me here for a lovely meal to kick off our vacation in Mexico City. After extensive research, we chose Limosneros as all of the menu items looked incredible. We got a very warm greeting upon arrival and were seated immediately. The interior was beautiful! The waiters were very friendly, and our drinks came out quickly along with a complimentary starter. We had ordered three appetizers to start, and they very graciously spaced them out into separate course. The food was all so good that we ended up getting a fourth dish! While all of the dishes were amazing, my favorite was the beef cheek donuts - there was so much more meat inside than I was expecting and super flavorful, and the accompanying sauce paired so well. The tartare topped with chorizo was another standout dish for us. We both really enjoyed our cocktails - I don't recall what my partner got, but mine was the Canallo, which was a delightful peanutty sweet chile drink. I can't rave enough about the service. They shared with us more about the history of the building, they replaced our dishes and silverware between each course, and were always very friendly. We felt like royalty. All in all, this was an unforgettable experience. I will be recommending Limosneros to all of my friends who visit Mexico City!

    Super cute restaurant! Pretty pricey but I see why they attempt an upscale experience. The service was okay unfortunately the kitchen took forever. Our server Emiliano is who saved this dinner. We had reservations at 6pm didn't leave until 9pm. About 2.5 hours for an eight course meal. Some meals had 20 mini waits between dishes so please come prepared to wait. I felt a bit excessive of a wait when folks who got sat way after us got their food first and left before us within that three hours. I don't think the course menu is prioritized the kitchen. The food was nice and had a cute local twist to things. Some of my favorites were the bass and parsnip purée plate, the duck was very good and crispy skinned. My least favorite was the langostin soup which had this overwhelming taste of frozen Cajun flavored crawfish which through me off plus it was salty. The soup with corn and in a broth was okay nothing too crazy tasting. Was hard to grasp the flavors but the textures are there. I'll be glad to be back but I want to try the taco course instead of the recommended 8 course they have. Cool thing is you can order Al a carte and share anything from these tasting dinners. Hopefully service is better for that fifth star

    Mojarra

    Luckily, we were let in to get a table for 2 without a reservation, this gets them a star. The restaurant decor is great. Such a charming, rustic-chic ambiance. I see they are attempting to showcase the best of Mexican cuisine with a creative twist. The food was delicious we started with the croquetas as an appetizer- no complaints. However, when it came to the main courses, the portion sizes were incredibly small. I ordered the mojarra, at first glance it looked burned but it wasn't. The mole is off to the side and there should've been more since Mojarra is dry. This was by far the smallest mojarra I've ever been served in my life. It almost felt like a tasting menu portion rather than a full entrée. The accompaniments were equally well-prepared but also minimal, leaving me a bit underwhelmed in terms of overall quantity. The avocado was less than a quarter slice! I would've understood if these items were part of a 10 course tasting menu but they weren't. This was my entree and it was as they say in Spanish "solo para una muela" which roughly translates to about enough food for 1 tooth. While it's clear that a lot of care and artistry goes into every plate, I left feeling like I had only sampled the menu rather than enjoyed a full meal. If you're looking for exquisite flavors and don't mind smaller portions, Limosneros is worth a visit. For those with heartier appetites, you might want to plan for an additional stop afterward. All in all, a memorable dining experience that just missed the mark in terms of portion size.

    Limon mezcalita
    Elle M.

    This restaurant was recommended over other popular restaurants in the area. We popped in for a Mezcalita to escape the afternoon thunderstorms on our way to Historico Central to see Templo Mayor and the Cathedral. We wished we had eaten lunch here instead of El Cardenal based on the menu and the atmosphere. The tamarind mezcalita is one of the best ever.

    Amazing! Staff was great and explain everything even to guests with poor Spanish speaking skills. And even worse comprehension. The drinks were superb and we loved their focus on local suppliers of tequila and mezcal. The space was beautiful and an excellent location. Table side salsa was such a bonus. No questioning the quality of ingredients then. Menu items were unique and outside of what you might normally see. And delicious.

    Tortilla chip something, chef's treat

    This was our first night in Meixco and we had made reservations here. The hostess was really nice and so was our server. Not too much English speaking but hey it's Mexico, we knew enough to get by and there was another server who stopped by from time to time who knew a little bit more English to help us. We ordered 2 types of tacos and guac. Both tacos were really good! They had very interesting layers of flavor that worked well together. Their tacos are served in pairs, not a lot of food but first night in Mexico and we weren't sure how our stomachs would handle. The guac was really good. I thought they were going to mash it infront of us, but that's not the case. It came out nicely seasoned and had some chunks here and there. The "chips" were not like your typical chips that you would expect to get. They were like the size of a taco wrapper and baked(?). There were 2 styles of the chips, i'm not sure what the difference was, definitely a difference is taste and a slight one in texture, both were really good! Also don't worry about running out of chips, they will bring you more if you run out and still have guac. We were too full and saw the item after we were done eating, but they have octopus! It was on our list to try but didn't get around to it =( Next time!!!

    Croquetas

    We arrived at this beautifully adorned restaurant and were seated promptly. No menus, scan codes. Our server took our drink orders. They were more than gracious ( actually went out of their way) to accommodate " allergies ". The dishes well executed, savory, delicious The service exceptional. It has become one of our favorites in this trip It's location in the " zocalo district" made for an easy walk

    Went here at the suggestion of my friend who's Come back twice now, every time he's in CDMX. This place truly deserves to be a star of its own, I know Mexico City is a culinary paradise but if all the impressive places I had the fortune to visit this place takes the cake. The quality of the food and service and presentation, rivals that of a Michelin rated restaurant. Here they use ingredients pre-colonialism, using what the indigenous ingredients of the region. The whole place is a work of art from the food, each plate or is served on, the walls, and the bathrooms and located in the historic district of is easy to miss but definitely not a hole in the wall. Be sure to order the soups because the presentation alone is a show in itself (make sure everyone gets different soups so you can try them all), then we had the Wagyu tacos, rabbit taco, octopus, quail, croquetas. And for dessert banana crème brûlée, sorbet, and chocolate tamale. Be sure to make room for desert and agua Fresca of the day!

    21 day aged duck paired with burnt onion sauce,  white chocolate / cauliflower sauce and some kind of mole.

    See all
