    Croissant relleno
    Sally W.

    Super cute little cafe! We sat outside right next to the park. We got the molletes and a croissant relleno (like a sandwich) The mollete is like a pizza with refried beans instead of sauce and comes with diced tomato. The two of us got two plates and a coffee each and the total was $16USD

    Like water for chocolate. A bold literary reference, but an anemic culinary experience.

    Words cannot describe what a terrible experience I had at this cafe. I ordered a fresh puréed juice of guava, orange, pineapple, and mint. The juice tasted like an ordinary orange juice blended with espazote, without any tropical notes or mint detectable. So naturally I went to the bar to watch the drink making in person, request remediation, and offer suggestions. The battle to get a decent sprig of mint in a drink that was supposed to have mint was crazy, and a quick addition of a wedge of guava did the trick. I saw a procession of beautiful dishes, all cradled in consuelas, that looked flavor packed and expertly prepared. The first egg dish on the menu, which I ordered, stood out as an unappetizing plating of individualist components, a deconstructionist interpretation of British style eggs in the shell, dried melba toast instead of fresh corn tortillas, and a kindling of overcooked cold asparagus, as though a London chef from the 80s were transported into the Mexican establishment to mess with my meal. I sent that back to get a tempting dish another diner was enjoying. The other dishes around me looked flavor packed and expertly crafted. Instead of the dish I had observed, they brought me a bowl of cooking water with uncooked beans and a flavorless mess of submerged eggs. I could only surmise I was receiving a discriminatory experience because I was an American lawyer in receipt of an important message directed at my government. Perhaps I was to infer there were a flood of people of color requesting equitable treatment from my government, and that diplomatic huevos were required to keep the people of Mexico afloat to avoid some immigrastory quagmire? I left with food for thought, if not for digestion.

    Very cute brunch place! Ordered pancakes and enchiladas. Wish the enchiladas were a bigger serving but overall food was delicious and the pancakes- amazing with blueberries inside.

    I ate here once a day for my 5 day stay in Mexico City - if you get a chance go check out the upstairs, it's gorgeous! The food is amazing. And their coffee is some of the best I had while in the area. Definitely worth the breakfast trip!

    Back in March, my coworkers and I had heard enough good things about Lardo that we wanted to see…read morewhat the hype was about for ourselves. We knew immediately we weren't the only ones with that idea. The place was busy, with a line of people putting their names down for a table. It definitely has that destination-restaurant energy. Once we were seated, we ordered several things to share. We tried a mix of fried bites, including croquetas, shrimp, and stuffed squash blossoms. The croquetas were crisp and rich, and the squash blossoms were one of the more interesting things on the table. We also ordered pizza. The crust had a nice char and chew, and the toppings were generous. I enjoyed it, although a couple of my coworkers were a little less enthusiastic. For me, the smaller plates stood out more. The room was lively, and the mix of vintage plates, copper-toned tables, and simple details gave the space a lot of personality. I also liked how naturally the menu lent itself to passing plates around and trying a little of everything. I'm glad we checked it out, especially because Lardo comes up often when people talk about eating in Mexico City. I'd happily come back and explore more of the smaller plates.
