Baja fish tacos
Rob W.

I was starving after a long run in Chapultepec Park, and was happy to come upon this quick and reasonable spot nearby in Condesa. It was a tad incongruous, tucked on a block with a couple of fancier options with outdoor musicians performing. It honestly reminded me of an East or west village NYC spot catering to college students, from an eclectic menu featuring breakfast all day and several vegan options along with more traditional fare, to a strange but not unappealing mix of mid 90s alt rock and folkier classics (Dylan, Marley) on the radio. I went traditional with the Baja fish tacos, which were very good, with ample fresh cabbage, red pepper and avocado strips. I like that they let you control your sauce addition as well. Outdoor seating area was sublime, under a giant tree, and kudos for brewing their own beer--tried an Irish red before leaving which was solid. Fun find, worth a visit for a quick, tasty bite.

shakshuka  so good and a light breakfast!

I am obsessed. By sheer dumb luck, my better half and I happened upon this beacon in this night. We…read morewent for dinner and were given a full explanation of the menu upon ordering. The interior is classic BBQ joint and the staff were all incredibly friendly and they give you BIG cups with lots of ice- Classic 'Murica. We had ribs, pulled pork, baked beans, slaw, potato salad & cornbread (oink oink) and everything was perfect! You can add your own sauce to the meat (and it is warm!!) and the food we ordered was in combos, making it a great way to try multiple items from the menu. The food tasted just like I was in the South! I can't stop talking about this place. I am so happy they are in the neighborhood. The price is right, not cheap-cheap but definitely a good value and MILES better than a certain other area barbecue place that has fallen from my good graces (I'm looking at you 'red pig'). Whether you are a gringo that wants a meal that tastes like home or anyone who loves anything and everything barbecue- this is where you need to go.

I have issues here. Firstly I wonder why it's necessary to change your US restaurant name from…read moreMoe's to MOUS to have a restaurant in Mexico. Trust me, the locals in CDMX are quick on the uptake. Also, I know Alabama, and BBQ is not the claim to fame. So when I saw Papas Alabama on the menu...things that make you go hmmmm. But jonesing for some BBQ we decided to give it a try because it was close and the 2 reviews were good. I went for the Brisket. When we arrived we ordered vino tinto assuming that a full bar restaurant would have at least a house wine. Nope. No wine available in the restaurant. So we ordered a bottle of water and the brisket. Nope. Brisket is only served on Saturday. That's when my suspicions were confirmed. No self respecting bbq restaurant serves brisket one day per week. No worries I told myself trying to remain cordial while having nothing that i came for. So I ordered the turkey breast. Nope. They didn't have any more for the day, week, month, who knows?! What are they serving here? We may never know. My husband cancelled his order of wings and ribs. Maybe the wings and ribs would have been great. But I doubt it. They aren't selling enough BBQ to keep the flames burning. We paid out and ate a close by restaurant that had (most) of what we ordered. This is an honest review. If I had read it before choosing a BBQ restaurant, I would have chosen more wisely.
