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.

After scrolling thru the review photos I thought for sure I would land on a burger. But I was pleasantly surprised to see they had hot dogs on the menu, which were cleverly disguised as Perras Maltesas. And being that I am not a vegetarian, I ordered the carnivore selection. Boy, was I glad I found the hot dog on that menu. It is presented in "pig in a blanket" style with two 1/4 pound beefy dogs in homemade roll with 2 kinds of gooey cheese and caramelized onions. And even though I am normally a chili dog kinda girl, I have to say every bite of this tasty combo tasted like a bite from home. And these guys aren't kidding around. The dog runs end to end and it's a hearty meal for one or perfect snack for two. The picture shows the dog after I cut it in half for sharing. The dog is grilled and the bun is toasty warm lending to yummy, gooey, cheesy melt. If you are jonseing for a good hot dog in Mexico City, this is your destination.

My only real complaint is the doner is not 100% lamb, even though I realize the main ingredient of doner does not necessarily have to be lamb. Fine, but they do not have any meat options that are 100% lamb, though the paidakia horin (ribs) were damn good. The service is usually pretty good, which is Mexican means overwhelming at first then frustrating because the waiter disappears, forcing you to go on a scavenger hunt for the check. Aside from that, the pita bread is delicious, but that should never be screwed up, under any circumstances. As far as seating, there are more options outdoors than indoors.

We ordered the salad with the figs, amazing... the artichoke risotto, delicious... the ribeye nicely grilled... and I ordered a soup for my mom which she enjoyed and topped it off for her with a nice coconut desert. I had a carajillo and was very content. The descriptions of the ingredients were appreciated as well as the recommendations. A great experience can come to a grinding halt in an instance. Background on us is that we recently relocated for a job here in Mexico City. Historically we have lived in Vallarta for about 8 months and have been a frequent traveler to Guanajuato...We have been consistently tipping 10% everywhere we go within Mexico. Ok, so here is the kicker...upon paying our bill with a cc, the waiter asked if we would like to include a tip and my husband automatically said yes, 10%. The waiter then proceeded to educate us that it was customary to pay 15% as they take 8% out and then HE ASKED AGAIN, what would you like to leave as tip. At this point, my blood boiled and I repeated, 10%. I think he thought that I would alter the percentage. I can tell you, I felt very offended to be pressured to change something that I had already made a decision about and now to be shame-pressured to giving him a higher tip. Does he do this to EVERYONE (locals, expats and tourists) that leave the standard tip amount in Mexico??? Or did he say this just to our party?? I do know and appreciate that the service was fantastic, however, I feel it is MY prerogative to decide what to tip in Mexico. NO ONE ever has ever questioned what I tip. The whole experience went from a solid A+ to a very gut-wrenching embarrassment to be called out and schooled. I certainly did not appreciate that at all.

It's kind of off the beaten path on a back side street, but it's relatively close to my house so I didn't mind. Will definitely be back!
