We were in la Ciudad de Mexico for a week and this was likely my favorite meal by far. Not only was…read moreit a quaint little establishment, but the service was good, the food better, and just overall a great experience. Don't forget to try the gras hoppers, yes they are on the menu and quite good. The drinks were good, especially the margaritas. Everything comes with a generous portion of aguacate and the frijoles were amazing. The salsas were delicious but unfortunately not spicy, although others might think differently. Gotta try this place if you are staying in the Coyoacán.

Tacos con chapulines were FIRE…read more When I landed late at Benito Juarez airport and got to Coyoacan after 8pm, I knew I wanted something close to my hotel and delicious. I walked to the tranquil downtown Coyoacan area and saw La Casa de los Tacos was open, so porque no? The girls were so nice. And they were open with a few diners inside. It was kind of empty and chill, but the ambiance was festive and exciting due to the music and activities going on in el parque nearby. I was so hungry I wanted to eat everything, so I got the tacos con chapulines (HELLA FIRE) and a side plate of arroz con platanos. I also ordered a beer, but that never came out. Their salsas are hella good. Especially that insane truffle one, who knew! It was SO good. The pan fried platanos were so delicious and the perfect little craving I needed for a sweet treat afterwards. They accept cash and card, and make sure you tip you extranjero/turista!

My wife got 3 huge flautas filled with beef and topped with green salsa and sour cream. I went with a small posole, which was amazing.

Seek out any of their locations if you want a no frills, inexpensive, good meal

Wow...the food here is amazing! My friend and I shared enchilada verde, enchilada roja, sopes with…read morecarne guisada, and chicken posole. I'm no expert, but my friend is, and we loved all the food! My favorite was probably enchilada verde. They also have free tostadas with 4 different salsas. This was a great casual spot with fast and efficient service. We were recommended to come here by our guide, and we can see the reason it is so popular. I would 100% come here again if I'm in Mexico City.

Not sure if the name of the restaurant is right but I know we were in the right place. Though…read moredirections was off, exterior name of restaurant didn't match. All you go to do is look for the hustle and bustle taco place, can't miss it. The "sandwich" we had was very tasty. Sorry can't recall the Spanish term. Lineup and pay for your order, then move to service area and watch them prepare it. It was the first place we ate at in historic center and an extremely busy holiday weekday. Crowds on the street were magnified!

One Pollo taco, one bistek ta o, and one barabecoa taco. Eleven me the size of these tacos, that was enough food. My brother ordered La gringo which is a mix of pork, ham, and pineapples. His food tasted much better than MI e, although MI e was great also. Their tacos are much better than what younwould find at one of those taco stands on the street. Our server was nice and she spoke Ingles which was also helpful. The best part about this restaurant is the ambiance. We really enjoyed our lunch and it was one of the best parts of our day.

Didn't have room for the tacos de tuétano (bone-marrow tacos), but that's on the top of my list for next time. Price is right for the quality and comfort level. Also tried the Agua Bendita, a guayaba and tequila drink! Definitely will go again and try more plates!

Came back to Comedor Jacinta on my recent trip to Mexico City and I have to say the food isn't as…read moregood as I remembered. The small plates are still tasty and unique but the flavors and portions have gone down. I got the bone marrow sopes, sopa de lima, oxtail gorditas, and beef tongue for tacos this time around. Everything was good, especially the beef tongue tomato stew which was super flavorful. The beef tongue was perfectly tender and so yummy with the broth. It was a bit odd to eat this in tacos though considering there was so much sauce but good by itself as well. The only dish I didn't like was the bone marrow sopes which this time around felt much smaller than when I had it last. There was barely any escamole which we added on and the bone marrow pieces were so small. While it was one of my favorites the last time I visited, I wouldn't get it again.

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.

The girl who served us was extremely sweet friendly and patient as we asked her many questions. The layout is simple and yet inviting. We got a kale salad and fresh sole, both were delicious. My favorite was the guava drink which has star Anise in it. It was not too sweet and had a nice floral. There was complimentary blue corn chips with salsa. We also did mezcal tasting there, and it was served with slices of sweet orange sprinkled with salt. yum!

This isn't a tourist haven, YET. Locals do rush to get in to eat. Officially, this place literally…read morehas no name, but Google maps calls it Sin Nombre. This is a true culinary experience and an authentic showcase of Mexican pottery, cooking and cuisine. The service is welcoming and extremely efficient. The place is small so get there early, but if you have to wait--it's worth it. They source everything locally, seasonally and the menu may change depending on what is available. This is a sophisticated but not snooty place and they welcome every race, religion, sexual orientation and they post a sign outside that relays such. Hands down, the food is amazing and the best I had while in the city, but beyond the food you feel the sincerity and care for bringing authentic cuisine to everyone. They could easily turn this place into a restaurant that is booked 2 months out and charge triple. I'll admit, I've eaten at the "top" restaurant in the city, which was great. But I walked away from "no name" feeling as if I just sat in someone's home and they prepared everything for specifically for me and told me a story about it. This is a true culinary and cultural experience. If you don't do anything else in Mexico City, you must take the time find this unnamed gift to the world.

I stopped by on a Sunday for brunch on our way to a coffee shop nearby. It smelled so good I told…read moremy fiancé that we just HAD to come back in an hour or two to have brunch after a quick coffee. We dropped in around 11am. Waited about five minutes to be seated, and we were ordering our food within 3-4 minutes. The pancakes caught my eye, so I ordered a stack of those with eggs and bacon on the side. The pancakes were VERY GOOD. My fiancé opted for a grilled chicken huarache, which was also a solid choice. Big portions imo. They do have alcohol, so you can grab a miche or liquor. Worth a visit if you're in the area.
