Late dinner in Mexico City, very mediocre. Everything looked really good, but most dishes were under seasoned. The short rib was braised for 24 hours, but didn't taste beefy. The suckling pig tacos were super tender, but again no "porky" goodness, just really tender meat. Shrimp ceviche was fishy, needed more acid to cook down. Desserts were the same. Cheese cake was more gelatinous, less cream chee-sey. There were many chili sauces to accompany every dish, maybe I didn't use enough. Guess I expected each dish to stand on its own flavors. Service was really good and turned this 2.5 star review into a 3 star. We'll try again tomorrow in Monterrey.

On our last night in Mexico City we driver to change things up from traditional tacos and eat at a steak house. The place is very nicely Decorated with a classy feel. While the food was great, the waiter ruined the whole experienced. He over charged us and they didn't know how to refund me. After a lengthy back and forth they figured it out and pulled it off. Look at what you're paying for before you run your card. We had similar problems at a ton of places.

We visited the santa fe location. It was everything and more. The decoration and lighting it was a whole vibe. The entire staff was amazing so nice and attentive. The food my people the food was outstanding. We started with octopus chicharron then we shared bone marrow in its juice. The bone marrow literally melts in your mouth. Portions are so generous we couldn't keep eating we wanted to try so many more things. Also they give you a FREE APPETIZER made of a sort of bean dip and 6 homemade salsas and chips. Simply delicious and great service.

Before I came here, I had no idea how big nine hundred grams of meat was. Surprise: it's a lot! The wait staff were pleasant and helpful, and the food was fantastic. We had our meal on the very top floor of the building. Drinks were strong; the wine picked by the wine sommelier was great and reasonably priced. The whole experience was wonderful. When I am in town, you can always count on me to return for the excellent food and service. We loved it!

I will say that the food and (most) of the service was excellent. One of our more delicious restaurant meals while in CDMX. Everything was delicious. Great ambiance and prices for the amount and quality are good. You receive complimentary chips, bean dip and salsas to start and to end you receive complimentary ice-cream on a cone. I would have given this place a solid 5 star review if it weren't for what I call some shady add ons to alcoholic beverages. When our waiter saw that my husband and I were both done with our beverages, there was another immediately on the way. We did not ask for it, but it was actually ok because we were each going to order a second round. What I have a problem with is if we didn't not want a second round and having the alcohol being placed on our table. All they needed to do was ask.

Where do I even start!!!! We were here in early July and the experience was amazing!!! Our server I believe his name was Isais or Efrain and he was the best! Our bussers name was Andres I believe and he was very attentive. The vibes in this place are great and the food well its extremely good. Do yourself a favor and definitely go here when in Mexico City. You won't regret it! 10/10 will definitely be back!

On our first night in Mexico City we had dinner with close friends after a phenomenal day at Teotihuacan. This is a fancy steak restaurant with the dining level on the second floor. The decorum is modern with dark wood paneling and dim lighting. The music is loud so make sure you are seated close or you'll end up needing to scream. Wait staff are very attentive however so you won't need to yell to get service. For starters they brought out some tortillas with a set of 6 sauces of varying degrees of intensity, which were very good, and after dinner was over and paid we got a shot glass with sweet cream and a sprig of churos. The emphasis is to make sure customers are treated well and leave with something sweet on their minds. I was impressed with the beef tray that was displayed before we ordered our main course which had a tomahawk stake, and a huge porterhouse, and several other cuts that included a petite filet. For our main course I shared a 25 oz rib-eye steak with Julio that was served on a block of heated pink Himalayan salt. It was on the salty side but very cool as I've seen but never had it served on salt before. The quality of the cut was decent too. We also added Asparagus to complete the order. Probably one of the main attractions for this place is that all drinks are two for the price of one. I ordered a margarita and didn't have to ask for my second, which arrived as soon as the first one was finished. Similarly, I had a shot of 43 and the second shot was poured in a similar fashion. Nice! We had one mishap with the waiter who dropped one of our orders on my friends wife's lap. Thankfully, it was a half piece of grilled artichoke that fell off the hot plate as the plate was being put on the table. Had this been hot liquid it might have been a different result. We had a great time and definitely would come again!

Whether for a special occasion or a get together. Great place to go eat, the food was delicious and the service was great.

This place is absolutely amazing!!! The service was great, and I love the interior decorations. The beef tacos were so tasty. And the steak was very well done. Love the snack most!! The drinks were quite refreshing. I wish I could eat more--there were a bunch of dishes that I want to try. I feel like the place is not that easy to find, perhaps it's because its entrance is on the second floor and you have to take the elevator to access. The elevator is kinda "hidden" so be really careful when you see the Starbucks--they are very close to each other. will definitely go to this restaurant again if I visit Mexico again in the future!!

Barro Negro is great place to sample a variety of Oaxacan moles. We went about 8:30pm on a Monday…read morenight. The restaurant was pretty much empty so we were seated immediately. The interior is pretty plain, with some Oaxacan art on the walls, apparently available for purchase. We were served tortilla chips with samples of 3 moles (Negro, Coloradito and I think the 3rd was Mancha Manteles) and 2 salsas. As my wife and I primarily went to Barro Negro to sample moles, it was great that we could taste them before committing to a full entree. They were all very good and very different. If you think all moles are 'a Mexican chocolate sauce,' then you'll be surprised at the different varieties. The salsas were all very good and on the spicy side. For entree, I ordered the Mole Coloradito and my wife got the Mole Negro. Both were served with a chicken leg/thigh quarter covered in a very generous pool of mole, along with a small amount of rice and beans. For me, it was the right amount of mole (a lot!) and rice and beans (a small portion of each). The Coloradito is a sweeter mole, very smooth and rich. It was excellent. The Negro is smoky, almost burnt tasting. I happened to know that the cooking process includes burning chile seeds and adding them to the mixture. To me, it was kind of ashy and not to my taste. My wife said that she really liked it and the flavor mellows as you eat more. At any rate, if you're familiar with Mole Poblano, which is also very dark, the Oaxacan black mole is a totally different dish. As it was late, we chose not to get any dessert. The service was attentive and quick, not surprising given that the restaurant we empty. We enjoyed our food very much and highly recommend Barro Negro for sampling Oaxacan moles.

Nice, small, and intimate location. The mole at this location was amazing. I ordered horchata and…read morethey brought me a glass along with a small pitcher. Great service and guacamole made fresh in front of you. Both waiters kept checking to see if we needed anything. 3 variations of Mole was served with chicken and beef. Black mole was my favorite as it had a smoked undertone of complexity to it.

El Turix - Tacos de cochinita pibil

While my physical body was aboard the airplane as the wheels slammed into the pavement at Benito…read moreJuarez Airport, my heart and soul were already at El Turix. The first meal of the trip is the most important. It sets the tone. The trip goes how that first meal goes, and I'd gotten so many passionate recommendations for El Turix, it became the obvious choice. I called the uber straight to the promised land, and hopped out with my luggage, into a run down, no frills interior. Just how I like it. I wish the written word could do any justice to how it smelled in here, but I won't even try. I can only imagine it is what a teenage girl feels when she walks into a Sephora. I ordered 4 cochinita pibil tacos, which is the only thing on the menu. Cochinita Pibil is a traditional Mexican dish that is slow roasted pulled pork. They pull the tortillas off the griddle and put them into this enormous pan of the pibil to give them a little bit of the juice and glisten from the pork juice. They then STUFF each taco, roll them up, and hand them to you on a plastic plate. I topped them off with the salsa verde and dug into them right outside. These babies actually exceeded my expectations. I was FLOATIN. Pork juice leaking out on every bite with flavor that can only be obtained through that traditional slow roast. It truly set the tone for the rest of the trip. This is the kind of simple, well executed meal that makes me grateful to be alive. IG @johnny.novo Tiktok @jnov__ Substack @johnnynovo
