They tell md the tacos al pastor are particularly good and I'm happy with the generous nopal and the mushroom tacos and quesadillas. There's a large variety of salsas in all stages of picante. My husband likes the one in the molcajete the best. I like the variety, otherwise vegetable tacos can get boring. The seasonal fruit aguas are tasty and there's an unsweetened option. The servers are super nice. They always remember us and actually remember that I don't like cilantro and onions, but that my husband does. The ambiance is casual. I didn't take away a star, but the children begging can be a problem. One girl snuck up behind me and purposely coughed all over my food. I packed my tacos for her, but told her to ask politely if she's hungry (she looks very well fed and groomed). We stopped going for a while after that encounter, but we like the tacos. She seems to avoid us now.

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

I would've thought Mexico City had great food in general, but that wasn't the case. Was there for four days, ate many meals out and this was the only one I really enjoyed. Too bad the place was so hot and stuffy. It was cooler outside than it was inside. All they needed to do was open some windows. Service was great though.

This one's for you Anthony Bourdain…read more Honestly pretty good taqueria, but nothing to write home about. This taqueria has a very cool vibe to it. Everyone wants to be here, there is a never ending rush, and visually pleasing red and white atmosphere and decor. This is what a CDMX taqueria should feel like. Plus everyone was so cordial. The food was pretty good, but nothing life changing. The menu is a little unfamiliar for Americans used to dining at a taqueria in the states. But whatever you order, it will be good. Great selection of salsas.

Also tried the Agua Bendita, a guayaba and tequila drink! Definitely will go again and try more plates!

Came back to Comedor Jacinta on my recent trip to Mexico City and I have to say the food isn't as…read moregood as I remembered. The small plates are still tasty and unique but the flavors and portions have gone down. I got the bone marrow sopes, sopa de lima, oxtail gorditas, and beef tongue for tacos this time around. Everything was good, especially the beef tongue tomato stew which was super flavorful. The beef tongue was perfectly tender and so yummy with the broth. It was a bit odd to eat this in tacos though considering there was so much sauce but good by itself as well. The only dish I didn't like was the bone marrow sopes which this time around felt much smaller than when I had it last. There was barely any escamole which we added on and the bone marrow pieces were so small. While it was one of my favorites the last time I visited, I wouldn't get it again.

The cauliflower is roasted and huge. It's enough for two or three people - others tried different tacos and seafood items and everyone saved room for dessert. It was fabulous.

Located throughout the city, we visited the Polanco location while in the area, which is walking distance from Soumaya. For an early dinner on a weekday, we were the only patrons dining in, but shortly after, the place started getting busy. It's a popular spot. We sat outside on the front patio area where they provide customers with free chips, salsas and their bean dip, which they are known for. I ordered a guava water and tried the shepherd entree, which were al pastor tacos, mixed with onions, peppers, bacon and cheese It didn't take long for our food to arrive and six for one person was way too much! It even was a struggle to eat four of them, which is what my final tally was. My partner fortunately ate two of them, yet wouldn't budge in eating another when I offered. It wasn't that the food wasn't good because it certainly was tasty! It was just heavy, with the melted cheese and all the other fixin's, in addition to the al pastor meat. It was good, but not light. There was a lot to choose from at El Tizoncito, but it looked like most everyone was getting a some sort of an al pastor taco dish. After dining in, I can see why, as it's a solid place for it, which is affordable and casual. It was a solid meal after hours at the museum!
