Table
Viviana H.

Uber driver recommended this so decided to try this out. Outdoor seating was nice during COVID times but literally in the hour of sitting outside, we were constantly greeted by folks asking for money, 9 to be exact in the time we were there. It was sad and heartbreaking but I'd totally recommend you sit INSIDE if you want to eat in peace. Food wise: - very disappointing - the guac was fine but the chips were the most stale chips ever and you could hardly eat them - I ordered the alambre sencillo with meat and it was the most unflavored dish ever - I had to squeeze so much lemon and add salsa to give it some taste - my friend ordered quesadilla de champiñones and it tasted like the canned mushrooms -- so it's just food Service: - it wasn't too busy but our server brought forks for my 2 friends and just totally ignored me. ?? And she wasn't so attentive at all. Overall, prices were cheap if you're coming from the States but you could probably get better tasting meat tacos at the stands nearby. They do take Credit Card and they just bring it to your table and ask you if you want to add the tip directly onto the machine.

Tacos de bisteck

Taquitos Frontera is a cool spot right in the heart of Roma Norte. They have outside seating which give you a great view of all that is happening. The food is really good. The Alambre de Arrachera is soon good. It comes with bacon, onions, and bell peppers. Just add lemon, salt, and their green salsa and you will not be disappointed. They also have tacos de Asada, al pastor, and other types of meat. We also ordered a casuelita of queso fundido. If you love cheese, this is it. It is so stringy and the top is burned and crunchy. The service is good and they bring your food quickly.

Good food Great value Easy central location Lots of meat Kind server I ordered takeout

Al Pastor coming up!

The Arrachera Alambre with cheese is great! I would almost recommend sharing it with someone because so much food comes with the dish. Meat, cheese, onions, peppers all top this dish with plenty of tortillas. A second tip, get the flour tortillas as well. They definitely add on to the dish. They take credit cards, just not American Express so just remember that as well. But the food was cooked just right and I'll definitely try and make it back during my last week here in Mexico City.

Al pastor tacos

Super busy place with waiters running around. Hard to figure out how to get seated but once we did the tacos came out fast and were some of the best we had on our trip. Al pastor is fresh and delicious.

Late night taco order at counter spot that exceeded expectations. 4.5 stars…read more Food: 4.5 Service: 4.5 Atmosphere: 4.5 Cost to worth it rating: 3 ($15 for 3 tacos and soda) Opentableable: no reservations Return worthiness: yes Highlights: - Al pastor taco ended up being my fave one of the trip: slices from the spot served with super thin slices of pineapple. 4.5 stars - Trompo steak got with cheese: hearty and great flavor. 4.25 stars - Pork belly: fine but big chucks. 4 stars - Salsas in mini jars : 5 different kinds. Plus a bowl of sliced limes. - Coca-Cola themed tables and chairs - Seating inside and few tables outside. - Once you order they bring the salsas then your tacos to you - Open til 4am Lowlights: - On the main road and can get crowded with people waiting in line on the street

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.

We didn't have a reservation anywhere and this part of CDMX was hopping. So we wandered along, this…read morelooked good and we stopped in. The patio was very inviting, so even though it was a bit chilly we sat outside. Our waiter was great, he was also busy, but we got our orders in and received in a reasonable amount of time. The cocktails were off the charts. Honestly can't remember what they were, we got two with Mayan honey and spices, and they were phenomenal. So fruity and spicy and served in an aesthetically pleasing way. One was the cocktail of the month, Aperol and mezcal, why not? Tasted like a, "fruity fireplace," according to our friend to which we wholeheartedly agreed. They gave us each an elote amuse bouche which was a tasty surprise and got us ready for more tastiness. Had a variety of tacos that we all enjoyed immensely. Cauliflower-both types were equally good. Birria queso was incredibly rich and just saturated with flavor-in the best way possible. Had esquites with blue corn and ham croquettes that we thoroughly enjoyed, especially the side salsas. Definitely had to do some negotiating when divvying them up since all of use could have eaten more. This place is not inexpensive, you will drop some money here, especially since you'll want to keep trying cocktails and tacos, but it's worth it. Name on the door was Maiz y Tinto, so that confused me for a bit.
