As someone who always struggles with trying to figure out what the "right" thing to order is, I absolutely loved not having to worry about this and rather sitting back and enjoying the vibes/ talking to strangers while awaiting "surprise" dishes. They were also able to cater to my vegan diet with every dish being so unique and tasty. We came by twice and between the two visits every dish we had was different. This was overall probably the most fun and tasty meal we had in Mexico City Some tips: - the restaurant is cash only so make sure to bring cash - there's no reservations so make sure to come early because lines are common. We got lucky in that we stopped by on weekdays when it was less busy

The concept sounds great. The wait list sounds organized. But no. We were told to put our name in WhatApps for a 40 minute wait. We rushed back in time and still waited another 30 minutes for a communal style table. Then, food came out in rounds, but the rounds were for all tables at the same time, so there was a 20-30 minute wait between each dish, about the size of a palm of the hand. There were no utensils, so we ate everything by hand. While waiting for the food, a street vendor came by to sell carpets. We were extremely tired at this point and decided to leave after 2 underwhelming dishes and 1 dessert. The total time was over 1 hour to wait for a table and over 1 hour for only 3 unfulfilling dishes. I do not trust the Michelin system and this place is a proof of it. Food was good, but by no means excellent or out of this world. Had they brought out the food after 10 minutes, it would have been more acceptable. It wasn't worth the hype in my opinion due to the extreme wait and hold between each dish. I and family also felt extremely gassy soon after, and mind you, this was our first lunch in CDMX. There were only 4 communal tables, about 30 seats. No restroom! Cash only or local transfer.

Once inside, the manager Miguel who was very attentive and professional walked us to the terrace and guide us to seat next to the bar! The place has a complete large full bar very modern and yet trendy, great for drinks, dinner and nice music. We were offered one of their signature drinks made with Mezcal cucumber and pineapple juices with a garnish made of crushed pancetta, salt and chili a must try! As an appetizer we were offered wooden tray of shaved prosciutto and bread, very delightful !! we also ordered eggplant with provolone cheese, it was very good and baby octopus on top of a oven roasted potatoes this is to die for. Enough for the night. Great service by our waiter who you can tell that was well trained and no how to describe the food that was served. To top it off we ordered a a couple of desserts, Tiramisu a must try and a mousse made with goat cheese with guava purée and hibiscus exceptional !! For digestion we had their signature limoncello!!! the best way to finish our unique dinner! The Chef -Owner Julian who we found out that he is one the the best chefs in Mexico who won many international awards and the manager Miguel came by to our table to thank us for coming to their unique restaurant-Bar. Their wine Cellar is impressive and trendy Great for an special occasion or focelebration. We wanted to try some other signature dishes that they are famous for specially their pasta dishes but Unfortunately that was enough for the night. Can't wait to come back to try their famous dishes at this Outstanding restaurant- bar. A Tru gem in the middle of Roma's neighborhood in Mexico City. We recommend this place A must try!!!!

There was actually a considerable 30-40 minute waitlist, which speaks to how popular this place is. Once ready, you take the elevator upstairs are are seated. The vibe was very low-key and chill, kind of like a cafeteria--definitely nothing fancy. The service is casual; you just flag a waiter when you're ready, and they bring things out staggered. We ordered the pozole, very homey, especially when paired with the fresh toppings they provide--radish, oregano, lime, and crunchy tostadas on the side. We also ordered enchiladas, the tortillas held up well, and the filling was generous. To finish off, I had the flan and to be honest it was kinda meh.

Cevichento is one of the joints (it's got a street-front, with a few chairs that you can sit at). The service is slow (as it is at most of the places here), so don't go if you're in a rush. OTOH, the food is really quite good - the aguachile is delightfully acidic (and *chili-hot*!), as are the tortas.

If you have children, I would honestly think twice before stopping at Felix…read more We chose Felix because we wanted to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful view and the crisp Mexico City morning. When we arrived, they allowed us to sit outside and put two tables together for our family. A little while later, a woman who I assume was a manager came over and explained that the tables could not be put together. She was very kind about it, and we had absolutely no problem moving them back. I completely understand restaurant policies. Unfortunately, everything after that made us feel very unwelcome. Our waiter was nice, but he barely checked on us compared with the other tables. There was also another woman overseeing the outside area who was walking around greeting and checking on nearly every table except ours. I don't know if it was because we had children, because we wanted to sit outside, or because we had originally put two tables together, but the difference in service was very noticeable. I asked for a menu and waited about 30 minutes before having to wave someone down again. After that, it still took another 20 minutes to actually get the menu. At no point during all of this did anyone come over to take our food order, while we watched other tables arrive, order, eat, and receive attentive service. At that point, I should have left much earlier, but I kept giving them the benefit of the doubt. Eventually, I paid for our coffee and we left. We walked literally across the street to MAQUE, and the experience was NIGHT AND DAY. They were welcoming, accommodating, attentive, and wonderful with our family. We still got to sit outside in the front, enjoy the beautiful weather, and they even had live entertainment. Honestly, it ended up being such a better experience!! I know one Yelp review isn't going to make or break Felix, but I wanted to share this because it was very obvious that other guests were receiving great service while we were being overlooked. Whatever the reason was, we did not feel welcomed, and the service was incredibly disappointing. Felix, please do better!!! Every guest should feel acknowledged and welcomed including families with children. Sorry it messed up your Aesthetic! Translating this to Spanish... Si tienen niños, sinceramente lo pensaría dos veces antes de ir a Felix. Elegimos Felix porque queríamos sentarnos afuera y disfrutar de la bonita vista y de una mañana fresca en la Ciudad de México. Cuando llegamos, nos permitieron sentarnos afuera y juntar dos mesas para nuestra familia. Poco después, una mujer que supongo era gerente se acercó y nos explicó que no se podían juntar las mesas. Fue muy amable al decírnoslo y nosotros no tuvimos ningún problema en separarlas. Entiendo perfectamente que los restaurantes tienen sus propias políticas. Desafortunadamente, después de eso todo nos hizo sentir que no éramos bienvenidos. Nuestro mesero fue amable, pero casi no se acercaba a nuestra mesa comparado con las demás. También había otra mujer supervisando el área exterior que caminaba saludando y atendiendo prácticamente a todas las mesas, menos a la nuestra. No sé si fue porque teníamos niños, porque queríamos sentarnos afuera o porque al principio habíamos juntado dos mesas, pero la diferencia en el servicio fue demasiado evidente. Pedí un menú y pasaron aproximadamente 30 minutos antes de que tuviera que llamar nuevamente la atención de alguien. Después de eso, todavía tardaron otros 20 minutos en traerme el menú. Durante todo ese tiempo, nadie se acercó a preguntarnos qué queríamos ordenar, mientras veíamos cómo otras mesas llegaban, ordenaban, comían y recibían un servicio mucho más atento. En ese momento debimos habernos ido mucho antes, pero seguí dándoles el beneficio de la duda. Finalmente pagué lo que habíamos consumido y nos fuimos. Literalmente cruzamos la calle y fuimos a MAQUE, y la diferencia fue DEL CIELO A LA TIERRA. Fueron amables, atentos, súper accesibles y trataron muy bien a nuestra familia. Pudimos sentarnos afuera, justo al frente, disfrutar del clima tan agradable y además tenían música en vivo. Sinceramente, terminó siendo una experiencia muchísimo mejor. Sé que una reseña en Yelp no va a hacer o deshacer a Felix, pero quería compartir nuestra experiencia porque era muy evidente que otros clientes estaban recibiendo un excelente servicio mientras que nosotros éramos ignorados. Cualquiera que haya sido la razón, no nos sentimos bienvenidos y el servicio fue muy decepcionante. Felix, pueden hacerlo mejor. Todos los clientes deberían sentirse atendidos y bienvenidos, incluyendo las familias con niños!!
