This place was so nice, I ate there twice!! I was in Mexico…read moreCity for a week, and as much as I love Mexican food, I was ready for something different and as usual, Italian food was calling! I took a stroll in the historic district And came across a charming Italian restaurant called Nonsolo. The prices were moderate, the place looked inviting and so I decided to take a chance. It was my lucky day! Nonsolo Is right in the heart of the historical Zolaco. It has an old world charm and an inviting menu. As soon as I walked in I got a really nice vibe and liked my waitress. She spoke a little English and I spoke a little Spanish, and between the two of us we were able to communicate. I'm not so crazy about a QR code menu, but this seems to be standard fare these days. It was hard getting a signal on my phone to view the menu, so she signed me into their internet Wi-Fi and then there was no problem. I ordered pasta with clams in a white clam sauce. And of course, a Coke zero! While I was waiting, I enjoyed the bread and butter and taking in all the people strolling by. The pasta was really delicious and I hated to see the bowl empty. I sat for a while looking at the people in the street and took in the wonderful ambiance and that delicious meal before I headed to Ballet Folklorico. I would say my only criticism was that they charge 45 pesos for a small Coke zero which is the equivalent of $2.50. The pasta dish itself which was around $13 US dollars was well worth it. That was so delicious. Considering I almost always order an Italian dish with marinara sauce, it's a big compliment to Nonsolo to say I really loved the meal lol The place had been on my mind for 2 days and last night when it was my final night in Mexico City I decided to go back one more time and taste something with red sauce! I had spaghetti bolognese and it was also delicious. This time I decided to sit at a table outside and it was very enjoyable looking at all the passerbys and also I got entertained by a young man singing "My Way" in Spanish and a guitarist who played some traditional Mexican tunes. I gave them each a tip which I know they appreciated. After sitting for a while and enjoying the meal and experience, I headed over to the Palace of Fine Arts to see the national symphony play. All in all a great evening! So there you have it folks. If you get tired of tacos and quesadillas and tortillas, head over to Nonsolo and have a wonderful Italian experience! Ciao and adios!

The majority of Italian restaurants are located in a different colonia outside of Centro Historico. I thought that the service was fairly adequate, and it was pretty tylical from my experiences in the city. I ordered the simple spaghetti bolognesa which is one of my trusted Italiam dishes. This did take a little time for them to orelare, and the reataurant wasn't that busy, but when they did bring it to my table, I was more than dying of hunger. I thought it tasted pretty good, however the bolognesa sauce was somewhat watery. Still the sauce was exceptional in my opinion. Everything else about the reataurant was great and the inside was modern and clean.

They give house focaccia bread with onion crisps and butter! That was soo delicious!! Everything together is *chefs kiss*! For appetizers we got the arancini Nero which was the squid ink risotto with octopus inside! It was so good!! We also ordered the mozzarella and tomato which is like a caprese salad but served hot!! We also got the gnocchi with Gouda and the de fungi pasta! Both were sooooooo good!!! It looks so simple but it's packs the flavor!! Also got the octopus risotto with the side salad. We were thinking that maybe we will skip the side salad because we have so much food, but we tried it and it didn't disappoint!! The dressing was so simple but so good!! Of course we also got the fig pizza and that was also *chefs kiss* as well! Everything from the fig, to the Gorgonzola cheese, to the honey and arugula, and down to the pizza crust were all sooo well put together!!! Last but not least, we also got the tiramisu!! It was a must!!! Even though we were so full, we had to get the dessert for the full experience!! The restaurant was really nice and had a great date night feeling! It's like you just stepped away to Italy for a little bit while having dinner! Workers were friendly and some spoke English as well so we were very grateful!

I conducted my search, finding a few places online trying to locate a good spot in a city I've never visited. Gardela stood out immediately because of their communication, kindness, and dedication to making this event extra special for him and his friends. They truly created and planned the perfect event for the group and I truly could not be more grateful. Onto the food (their honest reviews)! They said it was a 11/10 dining experience overall. The food was incredible and amazing and these are some food critics traveling from major foodie cities. They planned a beautiful menu with Chicken Tortilla Soup, a variety of Empanadas, Picaña Steak and Skirt Steak, and Peasant Salad and Fries as sides. They said the soup was super delicious and flavorful. They said the steak was absolutely phenomenal and tender, it was very high quality meat. Also the salad really stood out as it was super fresh and crisp. Then they plated a beautiful dessert assortment as well as well as special happy birthday and bachelor messages to make the celebration extra special. The cocktails were also super delicious as well. They left the meal with their hearts and bellies very full. From everything, from the planning, to the the presentation of food, the service, and food quality, the team at Gardela went above and beyond. I really could not have picked a better place and now I am jealous because I need to go try some of the steaks because they had my mouth watering! Overall, I would highly recommend going to this restaurant. They said they were seated in a private room too so it made the experience even more special. My sincerest thank you to the entire team at Gardela for making this event unforgettable!

The first night we focused on the steaks and they were absolutely delicious. Great quality meat, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor. The next night we came back and tried the pizza, which had a very authentic South American flavor and was just as enjoyable in a completely different way. The brisket tacos were also really good! Service was very good throughout, friendly, attentive, and professional without being overbearing. The wine list is extensive and impressive, with lots of excellent options from Argentina and Chile that pair perfectly with the food. Prices were very reasonable for the quality. Reservations are highly recommended because the restaurant gets busy. Another plus is the location, it is within walking distance of many hotels, including the Four Points by Sheraton. Excellent spot and absolutely worth repeating, clearly proven by the fact that we did.
