    Seafood risotto
    Grace N.

    My review is long overdue for my experience of this place back in early January of this year (2025). We book a table of two and were seated promptly after checking in. There were a lot of people waiting before we arrived! Highly recommend you make reservation ahead of time. They have live music on the night that we dined and it was just as fun and chaotic as I read about them! I love love the violinist they had that night! She was so good and so pretty! Food was really good and our server tried his best to be attentive to us but he was so busy helping lots of tables. This place is definitely just like how other Yelpers described.. It's a big place of fun, chaos, loud music, overly happy people mixed with awkward people trying to have fun, busy servers and pretty and great violinists, and their singing chef has a pretty nice soprano vocal! Overall if you want a fun experience in Polanco, book this place and experience it. It is super loud even without the live music.. This reminds me of the big greek wedding. If you are on a date and don't want to talk a lot book this place later at night, you won't need to talk to your date lol!

    I will say if you are looking for a fun lively night this is the spot to be but be sure you book a reservation. The great part is Fridays and Saturdays it's open til 2am so great late night eats. I booked a late night reservation for one at Porole based on the reviews. While I was able to snag a reservation there was a chaotic group at the entrance. They definitely need to work on the madness at the host area. My biggest gripe was they sat me in the darkest most secluded dingy corner of the place where they took away the second chair my purse was on so they could reach the extra dishes next to my legs haha. They also forgot about me constantly so it took forever to even get water. I also noticed everyone that arrived was greeted with fresh breads at the table to pick on while you waited. But not me I guess I could cut back on the carbs. They finally brought bread after they brought my dinner. Ok I'm done complaining now, the drink was 10/10 perfect ratio of alcohol so it didn't over power all the other ingredients. The food was good but my pasta was really tough I've been to Italy and had al dent pasta but this was just rubbery. The flavors of the carbonara 10/10 but they could work on the pasta. The presentation was great and when they did come to my table the servers were great. I don't recommend this to any solo person because it seems you are not waited on as attentively as larger groups or even groups of 2. I need to reiterate this is one of the most expensive upscale restaurants in the area so the expectation of service is high. I would not visit again.

    If you are looking for a fun place to have dinner and have a good time THIS IS THE PLACE! This place is currently very popular for the experience that it provides you, therefore even though I made reservations I had to wait around an hour. Thankfully during our wait we could go to the bar and they gave us a complimentary drink. The service was great, starting with Daniel in the Bar and Gustavo and Samuel at our table. In addition all the talented people made everything so much more fun, including Catalina who assure our table was having a great night! The food was also very good, because of the entertainment our food got a bit cold but it was still amazing. We got the PAPPARDELLE CON WAGYU, the mushroom risotto and the carbonara, everything was great but what it really stole the show was the bread. I will definitely be coming back here, it is a most of you

    Cacio e Pepe con Bogavante Lobster - excelente!
    Lynn O.

    Absolutely gorgeous place, talented staff of singers and musicians, delicious cocktails and appetizers, but the pasta dishes were disappointing. For an upscale Italian restaurant, they need to step up their game in executing pastas! Appetizers: The Beef carpaccio with Truffle, Wagyu meatball and burrata salad were all very delicious. The complimentary bread with butter and spread was excellent as well! Out of a party of 10, our pastas were on the overcooked side, none al dente. My friend, who ordered the popular Carbonara Fettuccini with Truffle that's mixed in the big block of cheese was a little upset that the pancetta wasn't cooked to a crisp. Another friend who ordered the mussels said they were the saltiest she's ever tasted. Hubby ordered the Tagliatelle with Yellowfin Tuna, and the tuna did not taste or smell that fresh. A friend ordered the Wagyu Papardelle and it was underwhelming. I, however, liked the Cacio e Pepe with Bogavante Lobster. It was rich, flavorful and had generous portions of lobster pieces. But again, the noods could have been served Al dente. Another friend ordered the Seafood Risotto, which was delicious! Cocktails: Get the Sophia Loren!! Beautiful artwork and nicely balanced for a very reasonable price 270 Pesos (~$16 US). My friend ordered the Red Scarlet and I believe that's the drink that is served on fire (350 Pesos/$20.50 US). She loved it. The Strawberry Tiramisu was disappointing as well. We thought the cream was going to be strawberry flavored and pink in color, but all they did was top a runny tiramisu with sliced strawberries. The servers were nice and got some of us to get up and dance while they were singing and playing music, but the entrees took a while to come out. We were there for about 3.5 hours or so. Overall, I would give Parole 3.5 stars.

    Beautiful space, amazing food, staff ensure an amazing experience. The drinks were out of this world, food was amazing, desserts, hookah, and a live and very gifted violinist! WOW loved it! Definitely coming back.

    The tomato soup here + the rigatoni were so good - as was the service towards my two little toddlers - that we came here twice during our time in Mexico City. Moises was awesome and made both dinners a great experience. Thank you to the crew at Parole Polanco!

    Come here for the drinks and the ambiance. Such a cute place! Had lunch and cocktails here and it was great. So good, that I brought friends a couple nights later. Turns out in the evening they have really great entertainment! They have a singer and a violinist that hype the crowd with dancing through the restaurant. Such a fun time! Bolognese was okay, I've had better back in Dallas. Lasagna was better and bread basket was delicious with the tomato dip! Services was good, several employees stopped at our table throughout the visits.

    After seeing my friends video of this restaurant while in her Mexico vacation i was curious to experience such delight. Parole is a very beautifully aesthetically pleasing establishment. We did not make reservations though i highly encourage it. The Hostess was very courteous and asked if there were any food allergies with our party to which i replied that i am allergic to raspberries. She made note of that. the staff member walked us over to our table that was on the opposite side of the patio area. the restaurant was not at capacity and i can say there was only 3-4 tables being used in the entire establishment. I really wished they would of sat us in the patio area given the unforeseen situation that later developed. We had 4 people tending to our table to all of which were informed that there was a food allergy. our meals were delicious! the authenticity to Italian cuisine is there. they have great chefs. they have live music during their business hours. the violinist is exceptional at what she does. really captivates the guest with her music. During out time there it began to rain. after several minutes we noticed roof water drippings on our table and we notified the staff members. they apologies and place one of their napkin in the spot that was getting dripped on but made no effort to move us or offer a different table. several minutes later we asked for a dessert. we had their lemon cheesecake i believe is what it was called. anyhow, though they assured me that no raspberries had been in contact with the dessert.. raspberries were used as a garnish for the dessert we ordered. Now, as an establishment that has made it point to note that there was a food allergy in the party they should of omitted the use of raspberries as a garnish. It really changed the experience for us all. mainly because they are a fine dining establishment. such attention to detail is a high expectation and part of fine dinning service. now to follow up with the the water roof leak situation.. it went from 1 leak to 3 leaks over our table. staff and management was now notified and they went on saying that they had recently fixed it and that is when they offered to switch us table but by then we had finished our meals and dessert. there really was no point and we simply wanted the check at that time after the discomfort. Overall they can improve on their service towards unfortunate situations and act promptly so that the guest feel comfortable. I cant say that i would be back though it was pretty it did not leave me that feeling of coming back when traveling to Mexico!

    What a fun night we had here ! Amazing atmosphere, great music and a live singer . The bar is where we hung out and they have some some amazing cocktails and desserts. The drinks are pricey, but also very unique. The bartenders put on a sow making them too. The service was a little slack but the place made up for it in other ways. The opera singer was fabulous and sang a lot of classics, and he walks around the restaurant engaging with the crowd. So much fun. There's not really a dance floor but people were dancing where they could find space! Our drinks were some of the best we had in the city. The Sofia Loren , was brilliant ! The raspberry lime martini ,amazing . I had a mezcal cocktail that was made just for me as it was my birthday! And yes it was delicious. The desserts were a show . Wow. One came out in a shadow box that was the showstopper! Lemon cream cake, which of course was really good, moist. Nice and lemony. The chocolate cake, was again delicious, this place does outdo themselves with these desserts. The birthday treat was a orange pistachio cake, totally unique, again great presentation on a frame! We topped off the night with a plate of pasta, simple Alfredo sauce , with Parmesan and black pepper. Hit the spot with the carbs! Simple and just perfectly delicious. Had the best time here. Such a lively place. Kinda loud for dinner but we loved the bar. Extremely popular place , so I'd recommend a reservation if you want to eat here.

    RISOTTO DI ASTICE E ASPARAGI Bogavante · asparagus · Parmigiano cheese white truffle oil
    Jessica O.

    I'm surprised there are not more reviews for Parole Polanco on Yelp. Not only is this restaurant beautiful, but the staff is friendly and they have an amazing violinist who brings energy to the dining experience. Our party of 8 started with several appetizers, including the ANTIPASTO MISTO (which is basically a charcuterie board), CARPACCIO DI MANZO (beef filet), BURRATA E QUATTRO POMODORI (Italian burrata with tomatoes, basil and pesto) and finally, the CARCIOFO PROVENZALE (which is roasted artichoke with mozzarella). All of the appetizers were presented well, flavorful and enough for all of us to share. They also came out quickly. For my main dish, I got the RISOTTO DI ASTICE E ASPARAGI, which comes with asparagus and TONS of Bogavante (aka European lobster). The risotto was cooked perfectly (not too soft but not too hard) and was full of flavor. If you love lobster, definitely order this dish! This is my 2nd time visiting Parole Polanco and I would gladly go back during future Mexico City trips!

    violists play every half an hour. Wonderful, lively, enjoyable!

    Dining at Parole Polanco is not just for the gourmet (which they are definitely is top notch), it is a dining experience like no others. Wonderful bread plate, Very tasty salad, and there is opera singer and violinist comes to play every half an hour. What a wonderful dining experience.

    Burrata
    Farrah F.

    What a gorgeous place one of the nicest here in Mexico City I highly recommend. Not only is the Interior beautiful the food and drinks were great as well. It is on the pricey side but well worth it I think. Ordered the following Italian Burrata, Arrabbiata capellini and seafood risotto dishes. We inhaled every dish and drink we ordered. Miguel was our server he was excellent. He checked in on us chatted with us and offered us great information. He wanted to make sure we had a great time in Mexico City. I recommend getting the fire drink at night time so you can experience and see the fire at its glory. Hard to see flames during the day. Overall had a wonderful time here. Glad we were able to make time to enjoy this place.

    **Winner Winner Birthday Dinner** Parole was such a pleasurable dining experience. From the ambiance, to the incredible staff "Miguel and Christian," and delicious food this was our restaurant highlight of our Mexico City stay. From impeccable customer service to an incredible ambiance (you literally feel like you are dining in a green house palace), Parole meets the mark. I could not have asked for a more perfect birthday dinner. Thanks Parole! I will definitely recommend your establishment to all family and friends who visit Mexico City.

    See all
