    Very kitschy kinda place. Like a Mall Food Court in the US. There were at least 5 different businesses ( maybe more ) surrounding a court yard. I ordered a hotdog with chili and cheese. It was delicious. Husband got a burger. The burger is why 4 stars not 5. They mix 80% beef with 20% pork. This gave the burger a very sold texture and did not taste like a burger. One of our tour guides helped out asking if the burger was beef etc. That's when we found out it wasn't 100% beef. They did have a special burger that was 100% ground ribeye. They made another burger and he was happy with the taste and texture. After dinner we got an Uber to a museum.

    Amazing! We had seafood and it was amazing! Drinks were very good as well. The service is not as good. Had to ask several times for service but when we got the attention of a server, it went well. To pay your bill, there are multiple charges. It seems that every business charges separately. Every time I go to Mexico City I go to Lucerna and I bring people with me. It's a great experience. The place has great energy and lots of visual interest. There is something for everyone. I will be back.

    This place definitely had a distinct hip vibe, and it almost felt as if I was in a mall food court. But this place is set-up much nice than a food court. Firstly, all of the mini restaurants are one in the same. Customers order off a menu instead of ordering at each individual venue. It was fairly busy when I arrived here on this Tuesday night. I would recon that it was 3/4 full of customers who were dining in. I found a cool picnic type table to sit and picked out what I wanted from the menu. This place is fun enough that I decided to order a Hawaiian Pizza! They only come in a medium size, but there was more than enough pizza for tonight and for lunch tomorrow as well. I was helped by various servers, and one of the servers tried to sell me up on additional french fries, which I definitely did not need. It took roughtly ten minutes for the pizza to be prepared, and once they brought it to my table, it definitely looked like a Mexican style Hawaiian pizza! Practically no sauce, yet a lot of pineapples and cheese. They did provide me ketchup packets which is a common practice here in Mexico. They use the ketchup to supplement for the lack of sauce! It was still delicious and I managed to finish-off half of it! The drinks seemed a little over-pticed at 55 pesos for a canned soda. I had a good dining experience here!

    This place reminds of Singapore's hawker stalls. Each little booth on the side is its own restaurant and you sit in the middle on picnic tables. This setup means the service is a nightmare, each stall having its own menu, servers that you had to flag down. But the food here was really good. We ordered several items from several vendors and it was all very good. If they could consolidate checks it would be great. The atmosphere had loud music and was very lively. Definitely worth going to!

    Great space! You have the option to eat at 5 different places and not to mention a place for great coffee and a ice cream stand. I had a burger and fries very good Especially the fresh cut fries Went back the next morning for a coffee and pastry from the coffee stand

    Very cool, trendy place to meet up friends and have a couple drinks at. I had a fish tostada that was very fresh and tasty. There was very cool decor and all kinds of different foods to try. There were things from tacos to hot dogs to even paletas which are popsicles. You do have to pay each vendor separately for what you buy from each place.

    The Tuna tostada was good but the service was terrible.

    Terrible service they took my order wrong and also I was waiting for so long just to have a bad service the food was good but they also were asking me to tip them what they want not what they deserve.

    Food is decent, drinks are delicious. It can be a bit confusing, there are 5-6 establishments and you have to call out the servers from the place you want to eat from. The bf and I tried the seafood place and had drinks from the place accross. The location is in the Juarez neighborhood pretty hipster, but the place seems full of tourists and not so many locals. The food is higher priced than say ur average taco stand in the corner. The place is worth a visit. If you are into craft beer you can find a few selections here. Food types: seafood, pizza, tacos, and hot dogs.

    Kon tiki. Smaller than it looks like it would be based on the menu picture.

    What a cool find! We were walking around the neighborhood after visiting the chocolate museum when we saw this interesting corner and had to check it out. So glad we did! What drew us in (besides the vibe) was the nogada hamburger, in the style of chile en nogada, which happens to be in season now for Independence Day. It was very flavorful and juicy! I wish the cheese inside the chile was melted. But it was tasty. Service was a bit slow and confusing, at first, because it is a food court. The drink -Kon tiki- was strong. It's smaller than it looks on the menu. There was a gal with a bar cart making pretty drinks as well. Dessert- creamy and delicious maracuya mango chili paleta! Fun place to hang out!

    Great place to enjoy Friday night and get some drinks

    It's like a food truck ambiance in a permanent location. Good choice to enjoy some drinks and kind-of food truck options in a very relaxed mood. It's a collection of around 10 locations including a bar, seafood, Italian and Mexican food with a common patio. You can be sharing table with other costumers and it's totally cool.

    Check your bill carefully. 2 times overcharged for items never received. A fun place, it is a shame that it seem the norm to over charge.

I was captivated by the warm, eclectic ambiance--shelves stacked with old books, cozy little crannies, and fascinating antique items tucked into every corner. It felt like stepping into a hidden gem where every detail added to the charm. I ordered the As de Corazones, a gin-based cocktail with raspberry, egg white foam, and a spritz finish. It was hands-down the best cocktail I had in CDMX--beautifully balanced, slightly tart, and perfectly smooth. I also tried the Josita, which was incredibly refreshing (and deceptively strong!), making it the perfect drink to sip on while soaking in the atmosphere. Service was friendly and attentive, with bartenders who clearly know their craft. Whether you're a cocktail lover or just looking for a great spot to unwind, Pata Negra is a must-visit. (I even went back as a goodbye to CDMX on my last night)

They had a few TVs with some sports on which is why we chose this place. Service was friendly, and quick to take your initial order but after that it was kinda hard to order a second or third drink you really had to flag them down. We came back on a second visit and they were out of some of the beers we ordered the previous visit. On the plus side the beers were ice cold. Much colder than out of the refrigerator which made it so easy to drink.
