    Beautiful Space Opens To Sidewalk
    Parker G.

    Super cute and relaxing breakfast spot with great coffee drinks and egg sandwiches!! We stopped by in the morning to grab a couple of the egg sandwiches they offer on the menu, and found the space inside to be super cute, airy, breezy, and relaxing! It opens out onto the sidewalk and it felt really nice to just hang out there for a bit and soak up the atmosphere. There was just one lady working, but she was very friendly and had our sandwich orders out very quickly, pipin' hot and all! I just had the Clara, which was very hearty and delicious. I split it with someone else, as I personally found it big and filling enough to be shared! This is definitely a great spot to stop by in the morning if you're in the La Condesa area - I very much so recommend!

    A little gem. The staff were all very kind and the food was amazing. The bread was incredibly fresh and the coffee was was tasty. Really nice foam on my cappuccino.

    Very delicious Cafe de Olla cold brew & Vietnamese cold brew. Quick service, friendly staff.

    Small little breakfast spot that won't disappoint! Absolutely loved their breakfast sandwiches especially their brioche bread. The service was super fast and all around amazing place to go for a quick breakfast.

    Perfect little neighborhood place with an authentic vibe, great service and comforting menu. We found it just around the corner from our Airbnb and so glad we did!

    Breakfast sandwiches

    This was a solid breakfast choice. Not busy, quick service, sandwiches were good. The hot sauces were good as well - especially the spicy mustard. The cold brew was also surprisingly good - would absolutely come back for a quick breakfast on my next trip.

    Clara sandwich

    Clara y Ema serves the most delicious breakfast egg sandwiches and is perfect for a quick bite without the fuss. All sandwiches are served with their signature brioche bread which is incredibly soft and fluffy. I opted for the Clara, which has bacon, egg, and cheese served with chipotle mayo. The ingredients are simple yet flavorful and come together beautifully. I also recommend ordering their freshly squeezed orange juice!!

    Of course, I used Yelp to find this place! It was my last day in CDMX. I wanted a full breakfast. The reviews seemed good. So I took a quick Uber to this place from my hotel. I came hangry and ready to feast. It was not crowded, and I was easily able to get seated. The place is cute, indoor/outdoor feel, with counter seats at the large open windows. With wifi (fyi for travelors). Very chill, with folks on laptops, or with their dogs or kids. Food - I had one combo meal (which includes a breakfast sandwich, oj, and coffee), and then I ordered a 2nd sandwich. Sandwiches, I got the Clara & Claudio. After eating both, I was full. The juice seemed fresh squeezed, which I liked. The combo is a good deal for the price and portion. I liked the runny egg sandwich the best. Service - was slow, but the server was alone. I'm not holding it against them. The server and I made it through with my minimal Spanish in communicating. I think she was surprised that I tipped so generously. Overall, nice neighborhood joint, easy place for breakfast.

    Cute little breakfast sandwich spot in Condesa near our airbnb. We walked by here a few times and finally decided to try it on our last day visiting Mexico City. Simple and straightforward with quality ingredients made for a great sandwich. I got the Clara, which had egg, bacon, and chipotle mayo on a brioche bun. The bread was super soft and light, but still kept together to hold all the fixings. We got the combo with came with orange juice and a coffee. The iced cafe de olla was just perfect, not too sweet. Service was prompt and super helpful. Def recommend this spot for breakfast or to-go while out adventuring the city!

    We stopped in for a late breakfast while staying in Condesa. The staff was really nice and we ordered two Emmas with an Orange Juice and a Cold Brew. The Cold Brew was decent but the OJ was very, very good!! Now onto the sandwiches. The Brioche is insanely soft! It almost doesn't make sense but it's delicious and the texture is like nothing you'll ever have. The caramelized onions were also a very good touch. The only issue was that the eggs could've used a bit more seasoning. If you're in the area, add this to your list!

    A great small breakfast/brunch spot in CDMX. We had a breakfast sandwich and fruit bowl - both were fantastic. Helpful staff for non-Spanish speakers and great coffee too.

    Grabbed breakfast here every day I was in CDMX, and I highly recommend. The Clara and the Ema sandwiches are so good, the perfect hangover cure from nights of mezcal. Highly recommend their cafe de olla cold brew, the patio is nice and breezy and perfectly shaded too!

    Ema sandwich with avocado and cold brew
    Tiffany R.

    Delicious! We ordered the Ema and added avocado. The bread looks huge, but it's light and airy and not as overwhelming as it looks. The sweetness of the caramelized onions with the spicy aioli is perfection.

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.

We tried a few juices, the chicken tomato salad and the salmon tacos. The salad was huge with a big portion of chicken, avocado and many toppings for a reasonable price. The tacos were smaller but flavorful. Taking off a star because my salad arrived almost 15 minutes before my boyfriend's tacos arrived and the restaurant was pretty empty. The lights were out in the bathroom and in part of the restaurant, so not sure if they were dealing with a partial power outage and impact to the kitchen. Still recommend for the food!

What really says it all? We loved it so much, we went back the very next day. This was the only restaurant we repeated during our week-long stay, which should tell you everything. The menu is extensive and thoughtfully curated--fresh, flavorful, and something for everyone. We tried the croissant sandwich, salmon deli nut sandwich, chutney mango deli sandwich, santos ahogados, fig chipotle deli sandwich, pear honey deli sandwich, and the spicy tuna deli sandwich. The sandwiches came with a standard simple salad. Every single item was delicious, well-balanced, and satisfying in that "clean but filling" way. The tables had two delicious spicy chili oil like condiments which elevated each of these dishes. And the juices--WOW. So refreshing, vibrant, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. The perfect complement to the food and ideal for starting (or resetting) your day. If you're visiting Mexico City, Ojo de Agua is an absolute must. With such a wide menu, you're guaranteed to find something you'll love--and very likely come back for more. Highly recommend!

Really delicious food choices ranging from my Mexican flavors to more basic Western options. Scrambled eggs looked good, the piadina was delicious, as were the chilaquiles! Plenty of fresh juice options and pastries (from Rosetta)!

There are two dining areas and a fascinating little store that sells tea, jewelry, designer clothes and in the hallway, beauty products (I think). Note: It is quite dark. I felt really old because I needed my phone light to read the menu, but our much younger waiter also had trouble seeing to process our credit card lol. Service was kind and professional. Tuscan food is unusual for us and we don't eat many of the ingredients, so our selections were a bit limited. Happily, we both found dishes that we enjoyed. My husband had chicken breast, which came with a salad snd sweet potato puree. The salad dressing was so light and lemony. I want to come back just for that. My white fish was Mediterranean in style and cooked in a sauce of cherry tomato, artichokes, olives and capers. It was delicious, but enough for two or three meals, so I took some home. Our meals came with herbed crisp breads and herb butter. They have a nice selection of teas and I absolutely loved the white tea with flower petals and lychee. Overall, a great find.
